The end of the game should be the Warbound landing right as the Annihilation Wave shows up on the opposite side of the planet right as we fight the final brawl. We look up, and realize we're hosed. Until Dan hooks up to Starktech and becomes Helios.

I just finished Defenders Vol. 4. I was going to warn Maltose not to bang any grad students or the universe will end, but I realize now that those events won't come to pass in this game. You see, now Dr. Strange doesn't have to take advantage of insecure grad students to deal with his crushing loneliness. Because now, he has friends: The Avengers. We did it guys. World saved.

What happened to his loyal manservant Wong, and isn't he also still married to some white haired lady? Clea? Cleopatra? Something like that.

I think he and his wife are separated, which is why he gets to hang out at Stark Tower with us and go to all the best parties rather than watch Gray's Anatomy and go to candle-making workshops. And Wong is alive and well and I will accept no argument there.

Basically Clea is in the Dark Dimension trying to overthrow the evil reign of DORMAMMU THE DARK ONE and she never returns Strange's calls and she hasn't shown up in an actual Marvel book in ages (2004!). What I'm saying is after the Civil War we should go gatecrashing like any other high level RPG campaign.

Oh, I get it. This is one of THOSE situations. Awkward... Well yeah at least you've got your bros! And yeah! We'll totally do that thing you want to do. Other dimensions, and y'know I know for a fact that time flows differently in some of those places so it's probably only been like five minutes from her perspective. (Part of being a good bro is helping a bro avoid drunken, regrettable hookups, as well as being the guy on the spot to stop a dude from phone bombing his ex.)

At the end we abruptly declare the Civil War to be over because other dimensions need to have a bat taken to them. It all ties back to Daniel Rand's famous "every other universe is terrifying" speech which reminded the world that at least they aren't all robots or Badoon slaves.

I feel like this thing with the farmer and Mystique should be an Odd Couple movie or whatever. "Ma'am, I didn't know a mutant could play bridge." "Are you kidding me? I love bridge! Forcing queens."

Hooray! Also, you are a jerk, and Black Cat is going to slap the smug right off of Dan's face one of these days. So what do I have to do to get Spider-Man to play along? Is it a lie vs doom pool, or what? And how are we going to get this to work into a team situation? Because I'm having trouble thinking that out.

If you are okay with doing that then you're probably okay. Defiance Industries fucked around with this message at 21:48 on May 13, 2013 |

While toying with writing up a Defenders-centric game, I thought having Strange as a drunk, unshaven mess trying to pull himself together and carefully building a new Defenders by naming heroes and choosing based on a Magic 8 Ball would be going too far. This thread has taught me that maybe it wouldn't be going far enough.

Look, Doctor Strange, he's the Sorcerer Supreme. He's one of the top 5 strongest dudes on a planet covered in strong dudes. Of course he's got that touch of swagger, that debonair flair. Also congrats to Defiance on upgrading your avatar to a more appropriate form.

Sometimes I think the only way Dust is going to fit the tone of this game is if I start intepreting 'shy and reserved' as 'complete goon socially'. My amateur hour essays on tokenism and stereotyping in comics will just have to find another home~quote:Also congrats to Defiance on upgrading your avatar to a more appropriate form.

Okay so she was going the other way.

My amateur hour essays on tokenism and stereotyping in comics will just have to find another home~ We're aiming for partly serious, Adam Jensens aside. I just happen to have a weakness for overwrought narration from the Silver Age, hence my love of alliterative names. Also I want to have a chapter that is light-hearted adventure where everyone is friends being cool with each other before poo poo gets double-serious.

I'm stoked that Marvel even has a Muslim superhero (this guy doesn't count: he isn't a superhero, he's a caricature; even his name is offensive), much less that we have her in the current game.

Yeah, sorry. I figured a plane that had its bulkhead punched out would probably make an emergency landing. Maybe if you complain they'll give you a voucher to upgrade to first class next time? I'm also in agreement with Ibn that I like how you write Dust. I really don't want to stray into outright Goon comedy as our overarching theme so if you feel that we are going that way, I'm dismayed. I'm really trying not to give that impression.

Yeah, honestly, I like your portrayal of Dust and really want to play in that arena too; I like Mystique mostly for being the most gender-diverse and sexually different character Marvel has, and (at least on my end) I'm having a lot of fun with different character moments and want to keep playing that forward. The humour's great, but it's definitely not all of it.

I want to assure you guys that Stephen's tone is so flip only because he feels completely in control of the situation going on, because he and Tony are Illuminatus and they have plans and they'll work and everything is going to be wonderful. Also Hercules as a character is kind of a goof so that may be part of the problem.

I can make no excuses for Cat. She is pretty immature, headstrong, flippant, and openly ackowledges that her "sexiness" is a weapon to put people off-balance. On the other hand, she has a pretty good reason for it, which involves not trusting men for reasons. Also, cat puns. Can't be helped. But Dust is coming off great, so don't change a thing. Our interactions may be pretty odd, but thats what makes them interesting, because we're all different characters, with different voices.
