Codename: Comedy Club
Age: 28
Sex: Male
Appearance: Wears a gas mask and a blue parka when committing crime
Biography: Jacob Seymour aspired to be a comedian, as it was easy money. However, on his first day of the job, he failed to tell a good joke and was kicked out of the comedy club. Distraught, he headed home, only for a mugger to pull a knife on him. While trying to disarm his attacker, a mist appeared from his fingertips and in mere moments, they were both laughing. Once he realized the power he had, he realized that costumed villainy was the way to go. Unfortunately, like his roomate Baxter, he simply didn't have enough money to become a full time villain, so they decided to hire themselves out to an established villain. Unfortunately, the only one they were qualified to work for an up-and-comer, the only one available being the Lucky Huckster.
Powers: Spraying laughing gas from his fingertips
RP sample: I Wish I Wasn't In Dixie: "Cattle die, kinsmen die, gods die, and with strange aeons, even death may die. Immortality is a myth. Nothing is eternal." Sean said to the singer as a smirk formed on his face. The singer screeched as she ran towards him on all fours, Sean Rockwell managing to stay ahead of her.


(Answer this as if you were speaking as your villain) -
Describe your abilities: I know how to lead people
Why did you turn to crime: I chocked on stage and there wasn't much I could do with a GED, so once I discovered my power, I signed on with an up-and-coming villain.
Why did you further become a supervillain: I need to network if I hope to make a name for myself in costumed villainy.
How do you feel about the Infinites: A bunch of glory hounds who only fight crime in the hope of gaining a
What's your end goal: I wish to become an independent villain with a henchman army, a lair, and a black and blue costume with a smiley face belt buckle
You've captured the hero/heroine, what happens now: I ask them if there are any others involved and spray them with my laughing gas
Do you plan out your monologues or do they just sort of happen: It happens when I am certain about winning.
Let's hear a sample of your evil laugh (the noise you'd make when your plan is succeeding): HA HA HA
Let's hear a sample of your evil roar (the noise you make when your plan is failing): Yah!
Any lines you won't cross: I would never betray my partners, no matter how badly things are going for us.
Would you prefer an archenemy, or would you rather just drift around from rogues gallery to rogues gallery: I would rather be a part of a single Rogues Gallery than have to learn the names of my comrades every other week.


Ok. Looks good to me. I like the idea of a villain who isn't immune to the laughing gas he creates. Could be fun. Comedy Club is ACCEPTED. Welcome to The Infinites!

Flarbinia - In this, you gotta go back and deal with the attacks. You can't just up and leave. You have to strike back, or somehow deal with it. If the laughing gas guy is doing something, give everyone a chance to react before you make a break for it. Also, somehow, make mention of the attacks your thugs and Lucky Huckster have taken.

Speyland - Grandmaster Yuan has been taken into the villain's car and is riding with them. He doesn't get to do whatever it was that he was doing solo.

Can you show me where it is?

Sure. Check out this post first which is where Grandmaster got invited to join the villains, and then this post after that to see where he got hijacked and dragged into their car anyway. Your post here followed after that.

I would suggest just going back and editing your most recent post to reflect that Grandmaster Yuan waited too long to accept the invitation to ride with the villains, and was hijacked and brought into their wreck of a car. What you want him to do in that mad assembly group is completely up to you.

Same with me! Last week especially! Had some IRL things come up that sidelined me for a bit. Which is why things like Infinites? They're great to come back to when IRL things settle down. IRL things always come first.

Deep Breath

Hokay, let's see what I can write up, eh?
I use my NationStates stats, because a population of billions/trillions and an economy of hundreds of trillions is totally viable, trust me.
But seriously, aside from the population and GDP, just assume that my NS stats are roughly accurate.

Support: Paleo-imperialism, conservatism, libertarianism, Christianity.
Against: Stupid people, resistance to industrial progress, alt-right, any form of government at or beyond socialism.

I hail from The League of Conservative Nations. Hearts unthawed, hearts unshaken!

Welcome!

The heroes and villains are now coping with a sudden, Earth-altering event caused by one of the powerful Infinite Rocks: the city of Hong Kong has been removed from its geographical location, and now has been transplanted / merged into north of the small town of Orient, Minnesota. Two Infinite Rocks have been found: the Alternative Rock is in the possession of Doctor Bureaucracy (an NPC villain). The Time Rock is in the possession of Blank State (a PC villain). The heroes are now in the middle of trying to stop a bank robbery by super villain thugs (with lame powers, because this is Infinites after all).

As a side story, there had been a bombing at the headquarters of the actual powerful West Coast Infinites (a group like the Avengers). The main culprit seems to be the leader of the group, Slipstream, who has escaped capture. No one knows why Slipstream would blow up her own base.

As a further side story, an alien warship is headed towards Earth to try and take those last two Infinite Rocks. The warlord is looking to unlock the power of the fabled but very real Infinite Gauntlet. He is only missing two.

Intriguing and suspiciously familiar sounding. Hmm.

Anyway, I have an app in the works for a hero and a villain who are connected by backstory but separate characters.

There's a pretty good chance a cheese themed superhero has been a part of a previous arc, so I can come up with something else if needed.



HERO



Name: Chaz C. Cheesington
Codename: The Cheese Wiz
Age: 24
Sex: Male
Appearance: Yellow eyes, cheddar colored hair. Both of which are traits he has had since even before he became the Cheese Wiz. Science must have a sense of humor. And the ability to see the future.
Bio: Chaz Cheesetastic Cheesington was born on some day in some year to Chez and Chester Cheesington, noted cheese enthusiasts who also happen to be the co-owners of Cheese and Thank You, the world's largest cheese manufacturing company. As their firstborn, his parents knew he was destined to become the heir to their cheese empire, so they held him out of school as a child and instead taught him everything there is to know about cheese. Chaz was enthralled by the world of cheese and decided to devote his days to this delectable delight of dairy. He spent all his waking hours at Cheese and Thank You headquarters learning everything he possibly could. Along the way, guided by his long held principles of "Love thy muenster as yourself" and "Be the cheese you want to see in the world", Chaz became an upstanding moral citizen with a heart for doing what's gouda. One night, he was off studying by the light of the biggest piece of cheese in the world, the moon, when he was attacked by his younger sister, Hamand, who was jealous of his preferred status among their parents. They fought for hours, closely matched equals who were so incredibly bad at physical combat. It all came to a head when, during a vicious and thoroughly embarrassing battle in the factory cafeteria, Chaz tripped on a box of Ritz crackers that happened to be lying on the ground. Hamand took full advantage of this and managed to drag her brother toward the ledge of the Cheese Crevice, a small crack that was about 20 feet long and countless feet deep. No one had ever fallen into the Cheese Crevice and lived to tell the tale... which is why the vengeful Hamand deposited her brother into the Crevice, presumably never seen again. But Chaz managed to grab a hold of Hamand's hamstring on the way down, taking her with him. They fell for what seemed like hours but was actually about 23 seconds before succumbing to unconsciousness.

When Chaz woke up, he was lying in his bed in his room at his house, feeling perfectly fine. He was very confused, but that confusion turned into alarm when he reached over to check his phone and upon initial contact, it turned into cheese, as did everything he touched afterwards. Chaz's horror was interrupted by the appearance of a beautiful woman in his bedroom. She said her name was Velveeta, goddess of cheese, and she had saved him from the Crevice because she had chosen Chaz to be Earth's Cheese Wiz. The Cheese Wizzers, she explained, were an intergalactic group of beings devoted to the betterment of the galaxy via cheese, as well as the prevention of the growing threat of global meat supremacy, which was an ideology being spread by a gang of radicals known universally as the Meatheads. The Cheese Wizzers also weren't allowed to interact with each other, mainly because I don't want to control any of those other characters. The Meatheads had recently unveiled their newest member, the Behamoth, a monster of meat supremacy that necessitated the creation of a Cheese Wiz on Earth. Chaz's new destiny, she said, was to protect his world from the Meatheads and meat supremacy by using the power of cheese. To do this, she had granted him the Mozzarella Touch, which meant that anything he touched would turn to cheese. Chaz failed to see how that would be in any way helpful for superhero combat, but he was too confused to ask the question. She also granted him the Monterey Mittens, a pair of gloves that were called mittens for some reason. For what Velveeta called "hand wavey magic reasons", the Mittens were immune to the Mozzarella Touch and thus could be worn when he wasn't superheroing. Finally, she said that his sister was fine and that he didn't need to ask questions about her whereabouts. Chaz, immensely confused, tried to ask questions, but Velveeta disappeared before he could say anything. Chaz decided he had better listen to the strange woman who claimed to be the cheese goddess, and ever since then, he has roamed the streets of Orient, attempting to dissuade meat supremacy and figure out a way of defeating the dreaded Behamoth. But he still hasn't found his sister...
Powers: Knows everything there is to know about cheese, the Mozzarella Touch (everything he touches turns to cheese, except for his special Monterey Mittens)

(sorry, you'll have to scroll to find me, idk how to link specific posts)




(Things in parentheses are OOC. The rest of this is IC. A form for your character to answer.)

Describe your abilities: Oh, it's nothing much. I just know a lot about cheese. Oh, and I can turn things into cheese if I touch them. Kinda like the Midas Touch, but with cheese.
Why did you become a superhero: Because I was told I had to by a woman who said she was the cheese goddess. It was a little weird, but I don't mind. I was always taught that helping others was a very gouda thing anyway.
What are your goals for the future: Defeat meat supremacy. Find my sister. And I guess, generally, just, keeping the town of Orient safe.
(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?): (Because who the heck cares about being able to turn things into cheese?!? That seems like something that in most cases would be an active hindrance to a team of heroes.)
How would you describe your talents?: I'm very knowledgeable about cheese! I also think that my compassionate heart is a strength in some way. And I've got the Mozzarella Touch. Hmm... don't think there's anything else.
(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) (No one cares about cheese that much)
What are your strengths?: I'm very caring, and I know a lot about cheese! That's a strength, I think.
What are your weaknesses?: I'm not really one for "social interaction". My parents kept me holed up in the cheese factory all my life, so I don't really know how to do it. I also don't like it when I fail. I know, everyone fails sometimes, but I guess I can't help feeling like I shouldn't, for some reason.
(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): (Social issues, since he was kept out of school his whole life. He also has a fear of failure developed as a result of the high expectations set on him by his well-meaning but misguided parents. He also has an inflated sense of how much of a hero he really is, not as a result of his ego, but as a result of the over-inflated importance in his mind of defeating meat supremacy.)
Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: Because I'm smart, I'm caring, and I want to be able to use my talents to help save the entire world!
(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): (Because cheese powers and meat supremacy all kinda sound like nonsense. Also, with such useless powers, he doesn't really save that many people.)



VILLAIN



Name: Hamand (hah-MAHND) M. Cheesington
Codename: The Behamoth
Age: 23
Sex: Female
Appearance: Bologna colored hair, eyes as red as raw meat, and cheeks that are the same shade of pink as ham is. Also all traits she possessed before gaining her powers. Science really had some fun with this family.
Biography: Hamand Massive-Failure Cheesington was born on an irrelevant day in an irrelevant year to Chez and Chester Cheesington, noted cheese enthusiasts who also happen to be the co-owners of Cheese and Thank You, the world's largest cheese manufacturing company. As their secondborn, her parents knew that she was destined to become nothing more than a massive failure (hence her middle name), so they paid her absolutely no attention. Hamand was a lonely child who grew to despise her parents and goody two shoes brother, and she spent every waking hour attempting to devise a scheme to bring her parents down. But she failed every time, for she was an idiot, since she had never been forced by her parents to go to school and thus never went. Suddenly, one day, she came up with an idea: kill her brother and force her parents to pay attention to her. So one night, while Chaz was off studying by the light of the biggest piece of cheese in the world, the moon, he was attacked by Hamand. They fought for hours, closely matched equals who were so incredibly bad at physical combat. It all came to a head when, during a vicious and thoroughly embarrassing battle in the factory cafeteria, Chaz tripped on a box of Ritz crackers that happened to be lying on the ground. Hamand took full advantage of this and managed to drag her brother toward the ledge of the Cheese Crevice, a small crack that was about 20 feet long and countless feet deep. No one had ever fallen into the Cheese Crevice and lived to tell the tale... which is why the vengeful Hamand deposited her brother into the Crevice, presumably never seen again. But Chaz managed to grab a hold of Hamand's hamstring on the way down, taking her with him. They fell for what seemed like hours but was actually about 23 seconds before succumbing to unconsciousness.

When Hamand woke up, she was in a mysterious room lying on a bed that she was pretty sure was made out of salami. She was very confused, but that confusion was interrupted by the appearance of a gorgeous man in her bedroom. He said his name was Beefistopheles, the meat devil, and he had saved her from the Crevice because he had chosen Hamand to be his Behamoth. He explained that he was the head of the Meatheads, an organization devoted to destroying the galaxy, which they believed had become too devoted to cheese, and create a new one that was focused on meat and not cheese, with a secondary goal of defeating the Cheese Wizzers, the sworn enemy of the Meatheads and strong advocates for cheese. The Behamoth, he explained, was an idea he had thought of for a monstrous being who could destroy the Cheese Wizzers once and for all - like a behemoth, but with a punny meat name. If she were to drink this potion, Beefistopheles explained, she would acquire the powers of the Behamoth, which included: being able to turn into a 10x10x10 slab of ham, being able to turn any sort of cheese product into red meat, and nothing else. Hamand's new destiny, he said, was to destroy the world, spread meat supremacy, and dismantle the Cheese Wizzers. Hamand failed to see how her potential powers would be in any way helpful for superhero combat, so she asked how those powers would help anything. Beefistopheles said that he didn't know why he had chosen those powers, for like her, he was an idiot. She also asked him why she had been chosen to be the Behamoth, to which he said, "I wanted that other kid, but Velveeta got to her first." Confused, she assumed that the brand Velveeta had signed their previous prospective Behamoth to an endorsement deal or something and thought nothing more of it. Finally, Beefistopheles said that his brother was fine and that she didn't need to ask questions about his whereabouts. Hamand was okay with that - she didn't like her brother. Hamand decided she had better listen to the strange man who claimed to be the meat devil, mostly because she hated cheese due to her parents and brother, who she also hated, being cheese fanatics. She drank the potion, and Beefistopheles sent her on her merry way. Ever since then, she has roamed the streets of Orient, attempting to spread meat supremacy and figure out a way of defeating the dreaded Cheese Wizzers. But she still hasn't heard from her brother...
Powers: Being able to turn into a 10x10x10 slab of ham (that's it, it's just a slab of ham, it can't move or anything) and back, being able to turn any sort of cheese product into red meat
RP sample: See above


(Answer this as if you were speaking as your villain) -
Describe your abilities: I can become a big ham slab. I can also make cheese become red meat, which it deserves. Screw cheese, screw it to heck!
Why did you turn to crime: Because Beefy told me to. And because these cheese-for-brains on earth deserve it.
Why did you further become a supervillain: Because Beefy told me to. And because these cheese-for-brains on earth deserve it.
How do you feel about the Infinites: Do they like cheese? I bet they do, since practically everyone on earth likes cheese. So I hate them all! And I'll kill them
What's your end goal: Destroy this cheese world, and make a new meat world
You've captured the hero/heroine, what happens now: I ask them if they like cheese or meat. If they choose cheese, they die. But if they choose meat, I take them to Beefy for induction into the Meatheads.
Do you plan out your monologues or do they just sort of happen: I don't plan anything unless Beefy tells me to.
Let's hear a sample of your evil laugh (the noise you'd make when your plan is succeeding): MUAHAHA TAKE THAT CHEESE LOSERS YOU WILL ALL BURN IN MEAT HELL
Let's hear a sample of your evil roar (the noise you make when your plan is failing): *incessant sobbing*
Any lines you won't cross: I won't hurt anyone who's on the side of meat. I'll help Beefy indoctrinate them into the Meatheads, but I won't hurt them. But cheese people? No lines there, pal.
Would you prefer an archenemy, or would you rather just drift around from rogues gallery to rogues gallery: I'd prefer to drift, because ideally, I won't let any given superhero stay alive long enough for me to become their archenemy.

Name: Sarah Osborne
Codename: The Intern
Age: 22
Sex: Female
Appearance: Standing at 5'4", Sarah is most commonly seen with her dark hair tied up in a ponytail. She wears the attire you'd expect from a college intern, though it's a little more plain than most would prefer. She has a round pair of glasses.
Bio: When Sarah's plan of studying psychology fell through, she found herself struggling to find a new major. While finding herself and her passion, Sarah wound up finding an internship opportunity with the Infinites. Eager to get as many credits as she could during her time of uncertainty, Sarah moved to the town of Orient, Minnesota to work as a secretary/assistant for the lamest heroes to (probably) ever exist.
Powers: None
RP sample: (talch knows me but i can probably scrounge something up)



(Things in parentheses are OOC. The rest of this is IC. A form for your character to answer.)

Describe your abilities: I'm a very good with typing. Currently, I can type around 88 words per minute. I have some knowledge about psychology from my 'Intro to Psychology' class. I work very well with others and consider myself to be a team player. My acting abilities are also quite nice, if I do say so myself. I performed in three musicals in highschool. I played 'third prostitute from the right' in Les Miserables, 'second fork from the left' in Beauty and the Beast, and 'fifth wedding guest' in Mamma Mia.
Why did you become a superhero: I think this question is an error. I'm just here as an intern.
What are your goals for the future: I hope to improve myself through the experiences I have with the Infinites. Hopefully my time with them will teach me many things and provide me with opportunities and connections after I get my degree.
(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?): This is the only intern job available for Sarah.
How would you describe your talents?: I have a knack for persuading others, should their interests align with mine. I'm very good with technology. I know three languages, Italian, German, and Spanish. I can also do some good voice impressions, and I can juggle for about four to five seconds.
(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) She's pretty much just ordinary.
What are your strengths?: Great under pressure, empathetic, I'm well organized, and I'm told I'm brave. Though, I think that was directed at my costume at a party. I went as Fiona from Shrek and was told that I really nailed the padding for the weight. I didn't have any padding.
What are your weaknesses?: I can get a bit nervous in crowded areas, authority can be a bit scary. I don't have 20/20 vision and can't see well without glasses. I can't swim and get air sick. I'm not very athletic, but I'm not too out of shape, either. I just can't run very far without thinking I'll die or lift my own body weight.
(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): She can be very socially awkward, may have some slight depression, has no real friends
Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: I think that I'd be very complacent with whatever job I'm given. Which I was informed would be a general assistant.
(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): She's just a college girl, nothing news worthy.


So i finally return

Been super super busy with moving and life and stuff, sorry for not getting to this sooner

These two are going to be EPIC. I love them already. Both are ACCEPTED! Welcome to The Infinites!

As a long running gag of the Infinites, I request that all new characters start out in their current groups. They have been here since the very first post, at the meetings of the Infinites and villains, and for whatever reason, were silent all this time up til now. They know everything that has happened to their group in the IC, even if you as the player controlling them don't. You come up with whatever reason you want why they were silent.

With every post, there is a small white box in the upper left hand corner by the person's name. If you right click on that small white box, a list will show up. Go down til you get to 'Copy Link Address'. Then click on that. So now, when you are posting and want to link to that particular post, hit the URL box at the top where all the other codes are listed. And in the first set of brackets where it says URL, after the URL put an = and then paste the link address you just saved. All that is to be in the first set of brackets. As an added feature, you can give the link wording or a name or call it what you want, by then putting your wording between the two bracketed sections. In other words, the first with brackets that says URL=your saved link address, then your wording, then the second in brackets that says /URL.

WHALE! Welcome back! Of course, Sarah Osborne is ACCEPTED! Welcome (back) to the Infinites! Glad things are starting to slow down for you. Any time more of the old players want to play is fine with me.

Same thing applies about the long standing running gag. Sarah's been there the whole time of this RP, and was just quiet from the start. You figure out why. She's with the Infinites right now trying to stop the bank heist.

Guys, I'll be updating the roster today with the newer apps. Until then, you are free to post as you wish.




Branc, love your post. Especially the part about the dopey prophetic comic book. A little bathroom humor is great - and that was little enough to not be totally disgusting, so props to you. That said, the villains haven't fled the bank yet. They're still there.

Thanks for the help! I'm excited to play. I'm gonna finish reading through the IC before I get a post up, but that shouldn't take super long.

Thank you guys for your patience with me. I am trying to see what I can do.
I use my NationStates stats, because a population of billions/trillions and an economy of hundreds of trillions is totally viable, trust me.
But seriously, aside from the population and GDP, just assume that my NS stats are roughly accurate.

Support: Paleo-imperialism, conservatism, libertarianism, Christianity.
Against: Stupid people, resistance to industrial progress, alt-right, any form of government at or beyond socialism.

I hail from The League of Conservative Nations. Hearts unthawed, hearts unshaken!

Takaka Tar' Turayi,
The stars will be ours someday.

Aubry shows up late to the fight due to (ahem) personal reasons.

Blimp Man might finally meet up with the villains

Staple Remover Guy? Time to see him in action! Get him to the bank!

Just a few quick corrections for under the character section: his name is Chaz, not Chas, and the superhero name is the Cheese Wiz, not Whiz (because wiz, as in like, knowledgeable).

Also, none of this really matters, so you don't need to change it if you don't want to :D It's just for the sake of my miniature OCD :P

Hey guys.

So, I'm thinking that as soon as the fight at the bank ends, whenever that is, we can call it a chapter. I have plans. Plot plans. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. :twisted: :shock: 8) :blink:

And, I was thinking about bringing the villains to the bank, and my post was getting long. Guys in the villains car, feel free to come to the bank and join in the fun.

Oh, Good Lord.

Hey, quick question: is there a recommended amount of posts per week? It shouldn't be a big deal for me, but I did want to check
