They Will Be Known By The Trail Of Tears - OOC

10am - Present Day

He knew it was only a matter of time before his message reached the ears of every single one of them, the video would be too much a story for the media to ignore. In their search for something as meaningless as ratings they would allow themselves to be his willing pawns in his game. It had been years since he had felt the slightest thrill of the unknown, the smallest bit of uncertainty against an opponent that might finally show themselves his match. At the very least he will humble those sorely in need of such, the gods will tumble from Mt. Olympus and be shown just how mortal they truly are.

Moments Ago - A video that went viral

Greetings citizens of the world, my identity is unimportant, yet the contents of this message are of the utmost. At this time there are eight locations that have been targeted by my agents and can be set to explode at any time I wish, for those law enforcement agencies who wish to respond I should note these are spread across the globe, good luck to you. Should my demands be met you have my explicit guarantee that not a single man, woman, or child will be harmed, but for every order defied, there will be a terrible price.

I will at midnight tomorrow provide a list of 8 names, each one an esteemed member of the heroic community that according to themselves and their boasts, are there to protect you all. Their claims shall be put to the test, we shall see if they truly are the paragons and legends they hold themselves up to be.

Failure of one of them to respond will result in a location and everyone therein destroyed.

Outside interference of any kind will result in all eight being destroyed.

Test me at your peril, I will not be denied, that is all.

(Elsewhere 8 unoccupied schools explode into nothingness as a stern warning.)

This will be a closed event

The 8 heroes have not yet been decided, should you choose to submit yourself for consideration be very aware that your character will be put through complete hell to a level I can only reinforce will be extensive. No character that enters will ever be the same, if they survive.

Very open minds and brass balls only for this one people.

Submit what alt(s) you want to be reviewed and a 1-10 rating of how far you will let them be altered. (1 meaning superficial, 10 meaning anything)

The event will begin as soon as the new alt lock has been dealt with and I will select the 8 based on diversity.

PM this account with questions or looking to participate

This looks hella interesting.

Hmmmmmm

Cool beans.

My my my, he wasn't kidding. xD

Some call him a terrorist, I call him a teacher...

Looks like Gambler got bored of going Blue already, needed a Red fix

Highly doubt that's G

I was joking, I don't think it's G either

LOL Put a emote on that thing man. xD

The guy is not a physical pinnacle of perfected Pankration, can't be G :)

Maybe I should make an open rpg dedicated to trying to kill me *ponders

solos

The End

@armistice: LOL

@armistice said:

Funny thing is I actually did make an rpg once. Didn't lift off :(

My PM box is always open for business, if you have an idea let me know

Just been busy lately sorting out what happened between me leaving and coming back IC and what related characters are doing. Plus some critiques, bio reviews, etc.

How did you quote before I edited? *Implodes

Mercy lends me her mod-powers when she goes to bed, I use them sparingly

@armistice said:

Consider me wowed. *Slow claps

Whoa this looks great, I wish I could come up with something this good. :)

@stratagem: Count Pyro in? And what do you mean altered?

@pyrogram: He means he's gonna put you through some messed up stuff. From what I gather it looks like the superhero equivalent of those Saw movies, lol

I'd love to join, but none of my characters are really established enough yet for me to drastically alter their personality already.

@_eclipse_: Oh right I see I see! Sounds good then.

IDK, I might be in......not sure I want to alter happy go lucky Angel yet.

@amazingangel: Yeah, I'm really tempted too, but it just seems too early to drive Eclipse into a pit of despair when he hasn't really established himself as a hero yet...

@_eclipse_: Yeah I'd wait a bit too, do a couple introductory RPs before jumping into something so deep and character driven.

@_eclipse_: @amazingangel: See I would do this as a way of constructing some character depth initially for Pyro. Hmm. Wonder if it's the best idea or not..Time will tell!

NO you must put them in the sht!

I may go with @omega_lad to 10 if you like. I couldn't do much with him anyway maybe that could help him lol.

@stratagem: Can I join this? I'll give you a 9, you can f with him but you can't reveal his secret identity to the world but you can figure it out and play it to his emotions.

I agree to 100%.

When is this going to start? Right now I'm as busy as it takes but this looks so interesting I want to take part.

not exactly, all I can say for now is to assume nothing and expect anything

Send a PM and list anything that is off-limits for the character to be considered

If you are not sure, do not enter, it will be worse than you expect

Same as above send me a PM and let me know what is off-limits

I still have to get through the new alt lock so Monday at the earliest, send a PM with any questions

@stratagem: There is no off limits show me yours!!!! Bahahahahaaaa :P

@the_imp: That is how to do it!

Should I look forward to seeing my alts life fd up along with yours? lol I put in Bloodstone

@614azrael: I know right?! Well, we could cry together for them later lol

@the_imp: Assuming we dont die ;P

@614azrael : Don't worry! What could possibily go wrong?... Wait I just doomed us, didn't I? :(

@the_imp: ....most likely lol

Still only 3 heroes have signed up, such fear in the hearts of the supposed noble

This sounds reallllllllly awesome :D

@stratagem: Since we have the weekend if I can come up with a fresh backstory I'll submit @fractured to the chopping block. He hasn't been introduced in the new universe yet. Nothing would be off limits.

@_eclipse_: Ah come on we want crutches back.

@reenforcer: Haha, I did the crippled hero thing for a long time, gonna try and keep my legs this time ;)

Is the terror of the underworld the only brave enough Paragon to fight?

@darkknightdetective: Pyro is involved :P

@pyrogram: Nice.

Where is the Paragon of Perfection? Where is thy majestic presence?

@darkknightdetective: Dead somewhere

@pyrogram:
