Venture of Heroes [OOC/Open/Superhero]

[Boergandina]

More along the lines of a Nazi Captain America, a Wehrmacht soldier who was "encouraged" to be a test for some sort of supersoldier program due to his genes and/or Aryan traits, and ended up getting frozen/preserved-otherwise and coming around in the modern day. He would not share the Nazi ideals of eugenics and genocide, because that's A: boring and flat and B: just plain offensive, but would be very opposed to socialism and other Russian things, having fought on the Eastern Front.

Edit: His kryptonite might even be Soviet imagery, or copies of the Communist Manifesto.

Don't think my WW1 British soldier would get along

Kraut versus Tommy! But will they resolve their differences to stop villain ________ and their doomsday device?

[The V O I D]

I'm not sure what to post...

Tomia and/or Starlight, would I be allowed to post as Quaestio and Aleam, and start some stuff with that in say, Chicago or Boston or something?

Just to let you all know: I'm going to [probably] be gone at 7:00-8:30 pm-ish EST. Somewhere around then. After I leave, I'll be gone either until the 22nd or 25th depending on various factors and circumstances.

Rip. Glad we got the posts out of the way before you left.

Good luck with your thing!

Yeah. At least that's all good. I'll probs post for Speed Demon when I get back, as well as responses to those who do something with my Quaestio/Aleam post too.

@Starlight. Thanks. I'll try to post it before I leave. If I don't, then, I'll post when I get back.

That might've worked if my guy wasn't so good at holding grudges

OOOOH! THis is it! Time for. . . the Seasonal Squad! (based off of characters from my story I'm writing) It's a hero team consisting of: A speedster, an immortal being from another world, a non-powered not-Batman character, a bruiser, a woman obsessed with crossbows, a character specializing in creating tunnels, and a not-Johnny Storm.

Any thoughts?

[The V O I D]

Faction Name: United Seasonal Districts

Location: North Pacific-25 miles from Hawaii

Level of Technology: Modern

Faction Biography/Lore: The United Seasonal Districts is so named due to it's legendary climate. The country divides itself into four districts-each 45-miles, which is helpful because of the fact that each district have a different weather zone. Northwest is Winter District, Northeast is Fall District, Southwest is Spring District, and Southeast is Summer District. The country received independence from England in 1945, soon after the end of World War II.

They have achieved a higher rate of intelligence, in part, due to the mysterious element found only in the North Pacific Island. Element 209, or to the locals, Elixir, is known to grant unwarranted effects, and seems to increase strength and intelligence in it's gas form, but in it's liquid form causes strange effects to humans. It's liquid form can also turn one object into a completely different one, which the government dutifully uses to man the ultimate recycling program.

The government is a Republic, consisting of two legislative houses, an executive branch, and a judicial branch. The legislative houses are the House of Representatives, consisting of five from each district directly elected by the people, and the Seasonal Senate, consisting of three appointments from each district made by the governors of each district. The executive branch is the President.

Character Application

Name: Johannes Stahl

Superhero Name: The Übermensch

Age: 83, biologically 47

Gender: Male

Race/Species: Genetically Modified Human

Appearance:
As Johannes Stahl: 198 centimetres tall, 104 kilograms, greying blonde hair that is parted to the right, startlingly blue eyes, grey stubble, arched eyebrows with a small scar on the left brow, light worry lines, square jaw, clearly well muscled under his typical dark red suit, with a white undershirt and black tie.

As the Übermensch: 230 centimetres tall, 560 kilograms, skintight black bodysuit worn under the armor, chrome face mask, with round apertures for eyes that are backlit with blue LEDs, and tubes on the front of the mask leading to canisters on the back of the torso, and ornamental golden moustache above mouth area. Chrome stahlhelm, emblazoned with a golden Reichsadler on the front, worn over the top of the head, and interlocks with the face mask so as to leave no skin uncovered. Rest of body covered in chromed armor with golden ornamentation, crafted in the appearance of a massive metal man, bulging with muscles at every anatomically accurate location. Toes on feet of armor are distinct, and movable appendages. Ditto for fingers on gauntlets. Large jets affixed to back of greaves, used for flight. One small 5.7mm submachine gun affixed to each gauntlet, derived from the mechanism of the FN P90. Each gauntlet is surrounded by many additional 50 round magazines that automatically eject from the submachine gun and rotate to reload, allowing a well maintained stream of fire. Each magazine lies parallel to it's respective SMG, and rotates clockwise.

Personality:
Johannes Stahl is a friendly, jovial man, quick to smile and shake your hand. He frequently bumps his head on doorframes, and is very gentle and quick to apologize. He speaks with a thick Berliner accent, and stumbles over English words. He is quick to duck his head when bullets begin flying, and tries to avoid conflict as much as possible. He enjoys fine beers, and spending time with his friends.

The Übermensch is brash and inconsiderate of collateral damage. He does not follow orders, nor does he issue them. He never backs down from a challenge, and never runs. He disregards those who he believes will not impede him in battle, and as such will ignore enemy soldiers even as they are peppering him with small arms fire, which glances off of his armor effortlessly. Similarly, he will never go for an enemy's family so as to deal a blow to the enemy on a mental level, as he believes that this behavior is beneath him. He barks his words through the voice-magnifying mouthpiece of his mask, a thick German accent tainting all conveyance of information. He is very prideful, and vain- scarring him or his armor is asking for a deadly battle.

Biography: In the year 1933, a baby boy was born in Berlin to parents who loved and cared for him. The boy was named Johannes, and his parents were Elisa and Gunther Stahl. He lived a charmed life, as the Nazi party was in power from shortly before his birth, and he grew to be a strong boy, of blonde hair and blue eyes. His parents, sharing these traits and both ethnic Germans, were in support of the National Socialist regime and what it had done so far. They wanted their boy to grow up in a world where he was in the political majority. At age ten, he enlisted in the Deutsches Jungvolk with the encouragement of his parents, as the second World War was raging and his father was fighting on the front himself. He worked cleaning tanks, and later, as the Soviets were entering eastern Germany, trained to destroy tanks, though he never got the chance. One day, before daily duties, his Deutsches Jungvolk unit was roused from slumber and was brought before a doctor, one Josef Mengele. He was selected, as well as several other well-built Aryan boys, and brought with the doctor to a bunker in central Berlin, where various medical evaluations and exercises were performed. The other boys were weeded out over time, presumably sent home, but were actually being experimented on by the doctor, dying from their tests and never being seen again. With Johannes the last remaining boy, he was led to the room that the boys were never seen leaving, and laid upon a bed. His arms and legs were clamped down "for his safety", and he was anesthetized. Before he awoke, the Soviets invaded the city, and Mengele departed for Argentina, taking Johannes with him while unconscious. He was kept unconscious, and for several weeks was fed through an IV as he was experimented upon by the doctor in his villa outside Buenos Aires. Eventually, he was roused from his sleep, and the doctor explained to him that the Soviets had overtaken Germany, and that Johannes has been forged into a new man to combat the Red Menace: a superman. He was noticeably taller, at that time over 6 feet tall as a 12 year old, and his muscles bulged under his skin. His blood was not his own, with his bone marrow replaced with a substitute synthetic marrow devised by Mengele: it fortified his blood, allowing him to heal at twice the normal speed and age at half the normal speed! He was educated and indoctrinated by the doctor in the following years, trained in military strategy, and taught history and science and arithmetic. He was also subjected to films and clips of Russian brutality, and molded to despise Communism. In the year 1970, Johannes being 24 biologically and 37 technically, as the Vietnam War was raging in southern Asia against Communism, he was determined to fight in it himself. He snuck out from the villa into Buenos Aires proper, multiple times, each time longer and longer. Eventually, he came upon a library, and stepped inside, electing to read from a history book about the life he left behind: Nazi Germany. In it, he discovered something peculiar and enraging: that Josef Mengele was a renowned torturer and mass murderer, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Auschwitz inmates! This made him no better than the Communists, as he was taught, who slaughter their own people wantonly! Johannes was overcome with anger that he had never felt, at this gross injustice, and at being fooled for all these years, and immediately stormed home. He came upon Mengele while he was sleeping, late at night, and roused him from his slumber, taking him out to the pool, and brutally drowning him to death 9 years before Mengele's fated death in our reality. He inherited Mengele's wealth and access to Nazi gold, after the "accident", and promptly established a business as a front while laundering his funds and studying the doctor's notes. Over the next 21 years, he spent his time building a corporate empire, Stahlcorp, based out of Argentina, and growing very wealthy. Upon the collapse of the Soviet Union, he was reminded of Communism and it's evil, and decided to set to work stopping it, as well as other great international evils. He built a magnificent chromed suit in the shape of a massive man, made from a special titanium alloy, and thus a massive metal man was seen in different countries, day and night, destroying terrorist sects internationally and many factories in Communist countries, especially China. Thus, the Übermensch became known to the world, with his gleaming muscles and impartial expression contrasting with his brutal treatment of wrongdoers and inelegant capacity for destruction.

Powers/Abilities:

• Genetic Modification!: Biologically, he ages at half the rate of a normal human. Additionally, his bones are stronger than tempered steel, and his wounds heal at twice the normal rate. However, this simply means that instead of 2 months for a bone to heal, it will still take 1 month.
  
• Suit Mechanical Enhancement!: In addition to his already superb physical condition and strength, his suit's servos allow him to lift up to 100 tonnes, maximum, though at great structural risk and personal detriment. Comparatively, weights such as 2 tonne lorries are relatively easy. However, due to momentum, a moving 2 tonne lorry would definitely not be easy, especially one flying at him rapidly from another superhuman's hands. Additionally, the powerful jets on his greaves allow him to fly, though not sustained flight, but more in a fashion to long ranged jumps. The canisters on his back pump oxygen laced with special chemicals into his visor, ensuring that he is properly oxygenated no matter the environment, and also acting as a painkiller and aggression amplifier.
  
• Wrist Mounted SMGs!: Combined, they have an astounding 1800 rounds per minute, reload in less than a second mechanically, and fire from 50 round magazines. They fire special HEIAP 5.7x28mm ammunition, and make up in volume what they lack in accuracy.
  
• Incredible Wealth!: As the last inheritor and survivor of the Third Reich, he has secret possession of the vast majority of Nazi gold. He has used this to start a very well known arms manufacturing company, Stahlcorp, that sells to many of the world's special forces.

Weaknesses

• Electricity!: Though the suit is highly advanced, and grounded, it conducts electricity very well! As such, he should be wary of lightning based powers while flying or otherwise ungrounded, as they could fry his systems and he would plummet to the ground, unable to move the heavy suit beyond a snails pace manually!
  
• Communism!: While hearing of the Red Menace and being subjected to indoctrination by Mengele as but a pre-teen, he was subjected to the horrors of war against the Russians! Soviet imagery, Communist propaganda, and similar paraphernalia will most likely trigger his PTSD, rendering him into a fight-or-flight state, where he may escape like a coward or panic and start damaging friend, foe, and civilian alike!
  
• Heat!: Though simple fire is not enough, beams of heat directed at his air canisters, or jet-boot fuel tanks may cause them to detonate, rendering him either painkillerless and vulnerable, or flightless respectively!

Equipment: High tech chromed suit of armor in the shape of a massive moustachio'd muscle man wearing a stahlhelm, wrist mounted SMGs, jumpjet boots, canisters that pump painkillers and air into his body.

Likes: Dispensation of justice, elimination of Communism, mid-20th-century paraphernalia, Germany, patriotism, honor, combat, winning.
Dislikes: Anarchy, Communism, modern culture, Russia, China, Vietnam, the former WW2 Ally countries, cowardice, cheating, boredom, losing.
Theme Song: Laibach's Germania

RP Sample: Will this do?

[Boergandina]

I created the Übermensch without even looking at Valiant's description, and even so they contrast each other well.

[Shadowwell]

I will try to get responses up later, no promises though.

I might expand my post a bit. It is a little sparse. Don't feel afraid to post whenever you want to, though.

[The Olog-Hai]

Oh great and almighty OP, if villains maybe open up again, how would a Dr. Horrible rip-off sound?

[Gratis Suid-Alfashir Republiek]

Oh yeah. We goin fight big time.

I say, that's a rather rude thing to say to your elders

OOOOH! THis is it! Time for. . . the Seasonal Squad! (based off of characters from my story I'm writing) It's a hero team consisting of: A speedster, an immortal being from another world, a non-powered not-Batman character, a bruiser, a woman obsessed with crossbows, a character specializing in creating tunnels, and a not-Johnny Storm.

Any thoughts?

All of these heroes...are all of them your creations or composed of the heroes that the other players made? Because I have one non-powered not-Batman character..and maybe a bruiser of some sort.

I just realized how old your hero is. Jeez, it's like Woodhouse from Archer!

He's seen all the stuff the Nazis did. Don't expect him to go easy on you

[Shadowwell]

Though i usually top out with three characters in rp's other than my own, i had an idea about a character similar to Vandal Savage. He would be a Neanderthal, who gained a form of immutability. (I thought it would be funny if he got it from cuddling with the X-Box.) He will be very susceptible to abilities that target his mind. He can be injured easily and heals slowly, he will retain scars, but should their be an injury that would kill him, it will seemingly heal without a trace. He will still feel the pain, more so than most. He would be a Supervillain. While a hero version could be fleshed out, i doubt any being could go through millennia on this planet and still hae faith in humanity, or the world.

[Boergandina]

Well Johannes was raised shortly after an economic depression caused by Britain having Germany pay for all WW1 damages, which is why many people supported Hitler, so don't expect him to go easy on you!

[Zarkenis Ultima]

While a hero version could be fleshed out, i doubt any being could go through millennia on this planet and still hae faith in humanity, or the world.

Well, wouldn't it be more interesting to explore a version that has somehow managed to retain his faith, for that very same reason? Otherwise, I'm afraid Star's moratorium on villains is still in effect, I believe.
