Gotham: A New Generation (OOC)

[Vevengess Ary]

@Vevengess Ary - Do you know The Broker? He’s this rich guy in DC who sells properties to supervillains for a lot of cash. If I managed to track this guy using my super deducing/hacking skills, would it be ok if I found the hideout of one of Hush’s drug smuggling gangs and having a confrontation there somewhere down the line? Of course, I don’t know Hush’s ingenious “master plan,” Damian’s goal is to just find Hush and take him down. What do you think?

Yeah, sure!

Julutth, it’s ok that you used Alfred in your post, just ask me before making major decisions with him like calling Bruce. Although I don’t object to that.

Speaking of which....

I think it’s time for Bats to return, if only for a day. For all he knows, his son might die in coma soon. It would only be appropriate for Bruce to come back for Talia and the fractured Batfam who have failed time and time again. Yaana should be ready for that.

But who would play the Batman? And what consequences would his visit bring?

Posted, it’s a longer one coming from me.

It was previously decided by Brainy that Yaana would play Batman if he returned. Your second question is an interesting one and it’s a question we must consider if he returns.

I'll try to get a post up this afternoon.

[Skarten]

I'm writting , but i feel it might end up being a little bit cruel. It's not much, i'm just putting my mask on a guy's dead body then repeatedly shooting it.

[Skarten]

Well posted.I did what i could, sorry if it looks bad or something lol

[Skarten]

Yk, i decided i'll just make a new character. Philipp really is oofed.
Let's say he goes with plan 3

[Personal Freedom]

Alright time for me to see what's happened.

[United States of Brainy]

I'm here! Looks like lots I need catching up on!

[United States of Brainy]

Wow! Some truly terrific posts, everyone! Amazing stuff.

Lic, I love seeing the analytical side of Tim, working out the problem like a detective, like Bats would do. I think the question of who's the better detective, him or Vic, is definitely up for debate! Oh, one note though, Damian's not dead, just in a coma, so I figure that Alfred's got him hooked up to an IV/monitors in the Batcave.

Skarten, don't feel like you have to get rid of Philipp and start all over with another character. I mean, if that's really want you want, go ahead. But I actually think Philipp's in a good spot. He can trick the Penguin and hopefully everyone else into believing that the Historian is dead and collect that five million. Also, with Nightwing back in Bludhaven, the curator spot at the Gotham Musuem is open. Perfect job for Philipp, don't you think?

Well, i think im going with the plan. Maybe philipp can return in the future.

[United States of Brainy]

Oh Haedros, thanks for your patience. i don't know whether Babs is gonna meet up with Snake or if she's gonna ask Layla to go in her place. Depends on how much fun she has at Harley's. Oops, spoiler!

[United States of Brainy]

Well, i think im going with the plan. Maybe philipp can return in the future.

Okay, I'll miss him. Hope his leaving isn't permanent. Can't wait to see your character app and find out what new character you'll be playing next.

I can tell. I am too. Thus, I have compiled my own OBJECTION!!! Firstly, in terms of your conclusion about the New Earth Tim Drake, I regard that as false! While you’re character is not the new earth Question, and isn’t even Mr. Szasz of new earth, as that character is existing as an entirely different specimen with traits different to our DC universes Vic Sage. Meanwhile, our Tim Drake is far more similar in terms of compiled traits to New Earth, thus I discredit your point.

Secondly, you pointed out that my observation about “new earth” and such is not valid, however, I disagree, seeing as our DC Rp seems to exist in an alternate universe to that of the comics, meaning that we aren’t exactly abiding by the new earth series canon, as there’s is no characters, organizations, and overall this universe is an entirely different specimen to that of either new earth or New 52.

Finally, you continually declare yourself the second best detective as per a combination of your own and previously existing lore, however, this is a rather subjective title seeing as due to the fact that this is a role play, where the capabilities of a character play off of the player, any character technically has no defined limit or barrier as to what they can achieve, thus your first point is invalid.

With the evidence I have compiled, the truth of the matter is apparent. The question of whom is the better detective is a foolish one, however, it does have an answer. Tim Drake, A.K.A. Robin, as per the conclusion here today, is without a doubt, the best detective.

(Be careful who you debate with Tam. )

In regards to your first point, you seem to be regarding Victor Szasz and Vic Sage as different people, when I have stated already that they are the same person and that Vic Sage is just a shortened name for his full name. As for your main argument of that contention, that the New Earth Question has traits that are different then our RP universe's Question, is false, as I have taken his traits from the canon New Earth comics, staying incredibly true to his character, and supplementing some extra skills and personality characteristics from his animated appearance.

Secondly, I said that your observation about "New Earth" and such is not valid is due to you saying that to contradict the canon lore of the character, because it is the New Earth Question and not the 'true' question. I disproved your point in my reasons above, and in my answering to your first point in this particular grouping of contentions I answered why my Question is the same as the canon Question, just with added supplements from his televised appearances, meaning that canonically he is the world's second best detective and, I would argue because his lore and traits remained consistent in my actions of bringing him over, by extent the second best detective in the RP's canon.

Finally, you are correct that in any RP there is no technically definitive limit for what a character can achieve, however, I would like to pull out the "word of god" argument and bring to attention that Lic, in their character application as of 12:51 AM my time, 7/11/18, for Tim Drake explicitly put under the skills "Skills: Persuasive, good at debating, is very well versed in the city’s geography." but does not have anything under there as Robin being a great detective or a skilled investigator, something that is not listed into his powers either. On the other hand, my character application, as of 12:54 AM my time, 7/11/18, for Vic Sage explicitly has under the skills "Skills:
Brilliant detective
Genius intellect
Dragon style martial arts
Hand-to-hand combat
Interrogating, intimidating, and investigating
Journalism
Indominable will
Evasive driving"
As I have underlined in my skill list, there is not one, but two points on my skill list that state that he is a brilliant detective who is skilled in investigating.

In conclusion, from all the undeniable proof that I have called upon, there can no longer be any doubt that Charles Victor Szasz (a.k.a. Vic Sage, a.k.a. the Question) is the world's second best detective after Batman in not only the canon DC lore, but also in this RP's characters based on their defined skills based on what their creators chose to put in their skill and power options, with Robin's skills not noting that he is skilled at being an investigator while the Question's skills noting that he is both a brilliant detective and a skilled investigator.

[Tamrida]

To put a final end to this argument, at 1:01 PM my time, I have updated my character application to read "Skills:Brilliant detective (World's Second Best After Batman)" to officially claim the title as the Question's.

[Skarten]

Man, batgirl sounds insane...

Thanks!

Lmao her reaction doesnt even make sense

"This guy was killed"
"Thanks"
Good job on making her look like she's having a mental breakdown

Thanks!

Could Harley convince you to join the League of Smiles, to help spread joy and happiness to the masses of Gotham?

[Tamrida]

:)

EDIT: Time to showcase Tim’s investigative skills for the first time in this RP...

(I can imagine the rivalry with the Question though )

I think a friendly rivalry would be fun if you're up for it.
