Thank you, I saw this rp and immediately decided I needed to app as Calendar Man, might have to read some of the comics again, but hopefully I'll do him justice. Anything I need to work on the app or is it okay as is?

Yaana Noore, the rp'er that plays Harley Quinn is itching to get into the IC but they need a villain to blackmail/coerce her back into a life of crime.

Scarecrow, Riddler, Calendar Man, Crimson Thorn, if any of you can think of a clever and plausible way to blackmail her, feel free to go ahead so we can get her in the story. If you feel like you need to run it by me or need to brainstorm, don't hesitate to TG me. Thanks! :)

Alright brainy, I have an idea for a true villain character, though it’s kinda twisted. His name is the crooked man. He holds no real name, as he is never outside of his villain persona, instead always hiding in the shadows of tunnels and such for protection against the light. His abilities are standard physical enhancement, being faster, stronger, smarter than the average human, Etc. Etc. however, the characters personality, past, and methods of killing are what make him twisted. He takes pleasure in killing and dismembering, though my character will never actually dismember anybody in a post. His method of killing is to beat and torture his victims to the point where they no longer struggle, and then he hangs them. After hanging them, he does offscreen dismemberment and then hangs the body somewhere public, then simply hides in the shadows, grinning and take pleasure at the reactions of those who see the victim. It’s honestly a kinda crappy idea, seeing as it’s kinda overly gruesome considering he splits people open after hanging them, but I’m all for crappy ideas, as they are the only ideas I have

I prefer she/they pronouns, and I enjoy not having to debate people over whether or not they should respect that. If they/them pronouns aren't something you're cool with, just use she/her. Thanks! -That same idiot, 2020

It's not crappy, I like it. Stop putting yourself down. Write it up and I'll take a look at it. :)

Annoying though because it should be in the first post so people can see where to post but OP still has not added a working link. Hint hint.

And I was just planning on making a Calendar Man reference in one of my post.
I believe that madness can find more madness, and that every ounce of madness has a spark of truth. And truth, as you know, has a way of depressing people who don't want to find it.

No one is 100% honest... We all keep 20% of the truth from the world, to protect ourselves & sometimes others.

@Pax Nerdvana- And here I thought Isaac was in trouble. :P In my first post, I mentioned that a security guard was the only staff at the library along with Babs. Was leaving it open for Ed. If ya still want Ed to get in on the action, you can say your first post was earlier in the day because the scene in the library is early evening.

@Bycrest- Did you want to blackmail Harley into working for you? I was hoping Scarecrow would do it but Flutter hasn't been around it seems. If ya want, I can tell you what I told Flutter on how to do it if it'll help. Yaana's been really itchy to get Harley into the story so I figure I better get on it asap! ;)

I'm fine with doing that, I actually thought up a way of doing it too. The only thing I was waiting on was for another villain to post, but I can edit my post to mention Harley.

Brainy has taken over from Flutter. It's a bit confusing.

FLutter, what sort of posting frequency would you prefer if one is to join this?

I am thinking of possibly joinging this, but my posting frequency would be minimal.

Am thinking bringing in:

good old Grundy, gotta love the guy who just cant stay dead.

JAmes Swift, adopted son and scion of DC villain Richard Swift, The Shade.

Or Brain and Bulwark, a duo of HEro and Villain, one intellectual, the other a hulking muscular behemoth.
