I better edit the ending to account for the Lord of Balance's death then.

If it wasn't quite how you wanted, you might be able to change things around with Mighty Asgard.

Though maybe it's too late for that, I dunno. I'm not posting until I wake up at like 12 or 1 PM later (It's 5 AM right now), so changes can be made before I do any posting.

That makes sense. Especially when it's the OP :P.

Figured you guys were working things out together in telegram or something, so I didn't think anything of it.

I never accept any character that uses time travel.

I hope at least the Lord of Balance being alive. He's the only one of the Lords and Ladies that can be considered to be good. Oh well, at least he made up a will and testament. Now, since there are no more Lords and Ladies, their Fae servants would be bickering and fighting for supremacy. Then again, their chosen Champions can be made into heirs of their Titles...

He's dead too, all of them were targeted because they all took part in playing games with human lives.

I know that it states that characters from existing pieces of fiction are not allowed, but are abilities or powers from pieces of fiction allowed?

All powers are pretty much from fiction.

I have one with a healing factor and the ability to learn extremely quickly while wearing a similar outfit to Deathstroke. My other one isn't in the RP yet but is based off of the Hulk being able to turn into a giant mindless monster with very high strength.

Vigilantes. They both want to help, but on their terms.

I seem to suck at pulling off Villain's properly, so I avoid them most of the time.

However, apparently I do better with vigilante's than heroes, because 4 out of my 6 characters are vigilantes.

It seems most characters are vigilantes. A good villain is hard to pull off and most of the time heroes seem to come off as... Stereotypical? There's a middle ground with shades of gray that most people use.

I think that's a big part of it. I like to make morally gray characters (or however you say it), especially after realizing how amazing that kind of thing comes out with books like the A Song of Ice and Fire series, and the TV show. It makes the characters much more interesting that way when they're not purely good or purely bad, and have a bit of both . It's more realistic, as well, even if I may not pull it off properly.

For example, about 90% of the villains I saw in this RP so far (All which I think are gone) I didn't consider to be that great of characters, personally. They felt weak and half-assed. Which is pretty much what it feels like when I do villains, which is why I avoid them. They just seem to all be "Oh evil villain that wants to do anything evil!", with no real substance beyond that. Same with heroes a lot of the time. While Kira I'm not sure seems to do much other than being a good hero, Cassie on the other hand, despite how nicely she's always described as being, she killed her parents on her own free will.

Vigilante like characters just generally seem to come off better for me overall. Even if most of them tend to lean more towards the good side than the bad side.

Yup. We don't actually have many of either at the moment, at least in the form of players actually playing them.

The reason Sarah isn't a Hero is because she has ridiculously high standards for those. -Nods-

Not that many of the people at that dorm meet them, anyway. :P.

Caitlin will give you a whole lecture on why she considers herself to be a vigilante instead of a hero if you gave her the chance...Even if her reasoning for being a vigilante leans more towards wanting to do heroic deeds to help people. While Jodelle and Cassandra just kind of seem to have no opinions either way on being "heroic" and are just...vigilantes. Cassandra's probably a vigilante just because she's a rebellious teenager with an attitude :P

Exactly. They're in the middle, but lean towards good. Morally gray is probably the best place for people to be because good and evil are relative.
