  Bargain Brand Heroes & Villians

This is Smallington, a city too small to be dealt with by 'Real' villians. Instead it is pleagued by second rate ones. But not to fear dear citizens for there are heros here to protect you. But...'Real' heros don't waste their time on second rate villians. That job it left up the the bargain brand heros. Problem is...is it really worth it to be saved? Eek

Ok...basically this thread going to be about heroes and villians, that aren't your top of the line piece of work. Faint Why? Because, though they may have powers, there're not what you think they are.

Basically it a comienic thread. You can be a villians that tries to plauges this fair, but unlucky city, who aren't any better. Heroism is also an option. Both have powers, but the powers have to have flaw in them. Example: Ice boy, he can make ice cubes cooler, or Heat girl: she can make herself hot, something along those terms.

Hero/Villian Name:
Secret Idenity and job:
Description: (What coustume looks like)

Flaws:
---------------------------------------

Hero: Single Woman
Secret Idenity and job: Trainiee, a waitress at an oldfastion drive-in dinner.
Description: A waitress outfit: Red shirt, black skirt, white old fastion rollerskates, gold waitress hat with the letter SW in black on it.

Flaws: She can only use one at a time

Hero Name: Logic
Secret Idenity and job: Just an ordinary, very cute ally kitten.
Description: Black and white and chibi-like kitten.
Powers: Godmoder
Flaws: She can godmode...as long as she isn't destracted. Powers take 10 hours to recover after destraction. And because she's a cat, she can't talk...much.

Hero/Villian Name: Sterling
Secret Idenity and job: Dish washer John at "Dan's Food 4 U"
Description: wears shining platemail armor, with a broadsword and kite shield, all silver
Powers: Can make his suit appear on him instantly, and his very presence is a bane to the undead.
Flaws: Has no aim, has no sense of timing, there are no undead in this day and age, and he's extremely clumsy. It's best to duck or dodge when he swings, needless to say.


I'll try and keep myself as light hearted as possible on this one. Been a while since I've been able to goof around in an RP.


EDIT: Say, are we allowed to have a second character? I'm sure I can come up with a good, goofy villain...


Posted by KS on 09.02.2003 at 07:21 AM:

 

Villain: The Silver Pimp
Secret Identity/Job: Street hustler, pusher, pimp, etc.
Desc: Different Apparel (Tracksuit, pimp outfit, street mobster, suave business man) but all of his clothes have some indication of a shiny material, silver or not. Black cane with a shiny disco ball on the top.
Powers: Commands the dreaded, but charismatic, hooker army. Men have little to no chance of their powers.
Flaws: Can get very angry, furious, raging, etc. May attempt to hit own teammates/super villains in pure anger, causing them to momentarily switch sides.

Hero(sort of) Name: That (Creepy) Guy
Secret Identity: Guy who lives in his parents basement
Description: He doesn't really stand out of a croud. Around 6', 6'1" (possibly 6'2"), standard white male, brown hair, nondescript earthtone clothing. Looks bored. Doesn't talk much. He's just sorta... there. He caries around a black stick.
Powers: Super speed and strength, and talented enough in combat. He has an eiree ability to creep people out majorly just by looking into there eyes.
Flaws: He lacks the initiative to actually go out and do something. Monster destroying city? Eh. Bank robbery? Eh. When he does do something, it's often as little as possible. And sometimes he forgets where he is/whats happening around him and just stares off into space.

(crap, I forgot some of the stuff I was going to use for flaws... ah well. Maybe I'll remember later.)

EDIT: Some stuff, plus a second character!!!! I'll probably post #2's sheet in my first real playing post also.

Name: Kamikaze Man
Secret Identity: What? Where?
Description: Short. Say... 5'1". He somehow beleives that nobody can recognize him when he's in 'uniform'. Light brown hair, his costume is white spandex with red gloves/boots, a red waistband, and a red K on his chest. Not to mention a giant 'bomb' strapt to his back, as well as various other explosives about his personage.
Powers: Nothing really. He seems to not feel pain or be aware of danger to his own personage though. He can take a beating that one. And somehow, even when his gigantic bomb explodes, he manages to not die. He can throw bombs at stuff though. (as well as his infamous kamikaze attack [which likely does more harm than good.]
Although he doesn't know it he was genetically altered to be pretty much a human bomb before birth. Which is likely a weakness too.
Weakness: He doesn't know when to quit. Plus he's kinda weak, though he doesn't know it. Kinda a dork really, despite his gigantic bomb. Perhaps a little naive with a "Good day Citizen" here and "Hello Madam" there. And he sucks in a fight. None the less he also tends to be sort of... spastic. And erratic. And due to the genetic engineering, any damage done to him might cause him to explode. Quite literally.

Villain: The Forked Tongue
Secret Identity/Job: Works at the local Cineplace (I've always wanted to see a theatre named that ^_^)
Description: Rimmed glasses, White tights with pictures of forks on the arms, legs, chest, and back (he sent away to have it done proffesionally, but they messed the order up)
Powers: Snide remarks, insults, and witty repartee galore.
Flaws: He can't take what he can dish out. He completely breaks down if someone comes up with a really clever insult for him. Also, the people he's insulting don't understand what he's talking about half the time, anyway.

~e~ just remembered another flaw to add Wink


Posted by Corvus on 09.02.2003 at 01:10 PM:

 

Villian Name: B-movie man
Secret Idenity and job: Cecil and works in a video rental shop
Description: brown short hair around 5"3, wears a black outfit with pictures of Jason,Freddy Krueger and Mike Myers(the Halloween one),he had originally started it as a t-shirt but decided to put a graboid on the pants section.
Powers: knowing everything there is to know about how to kill people and everything about B-movies
Flaws: too lazy to put it to any (limited) use that may be

Powers: Knows everything thats gonna happen or will happen. Can cast low level magic.

Flaws: only knows everything about the things no one cares about. Like how fast a dung beetle can lay its eggs in a 400 gram pile of dung. That sorta stuff.


Posted by Redwaters on 10.02.2003 at 12:06 AM:

 

OOC: Yes, you can have more the one. This can start at anytime that the villians like to start it at or the heros that want to make flashy introudction in. People who what to join are welcome anytime.

*A terrible explosion is heard at the City Hall area. People scream at their highest pitches as they run from the scene. Citizens and business officials pour out from the Hall, as one man, dressed in a supa fly silver jumpsuit, exits the building, almost...

Strutting???*

HAHAHAHAHA! What a foo'proof plan! Now the city of Smallington will know the name...

"SILVER PIMP!!!"

*He strutted out the hall, his disco ball cane in one hand, a woman in the other. She was the mayor of the town. Ms. Jowanna Doowit. He planned on making her, his bitch. Thusly, he would rule over the city!*


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 10:39 AM:

 

"don`t you have any of Jeepers Creepers in stock?"

The customer had to nudge and finally slap a pale youth at the counter.

"wha-what I`m up,I`m up!"

"look do you have any of Jeepers Creepers in stock?"

"uh....nah their all on loan"

As the customer turned his back Cecil picked up a knife from the counter and tried to slash the guy in two,but the man stepped forward and Cecil sat back down,"fuck it,I want to kill him but I`ll have to lean forward a whole more inch...."


Posted by White-Jet on 10.02.2003 at 01:13 PM:

 

Silver Pimp felt a slam in the back. When he regained his steps, he looked down to see a black chibi-kitten looking up at him with confused eyes.


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 01:21 PM:

 

A taxi pulled up outside City Hall,a man wearing a pair of black jeans and t-shirt with pictures of famous horror movie figures all over it along with a white hockey mask.Sluggish taking his chainsaw out of the boot.

"fuck it,so many minutes wasted in that thing...better than walking..now lets see if anything is happening that I can watch"


Posted by KS on 10.02.2003 at 03:18 PM:

 

Silver Pimp felt the blow and released the hold on the mayor. She started to run, when from the dark alleys of the road, a bevy of prostitues emerged and restrained her.

"Aw hell. You jost didn't doo dat!!" the Silver Pimp exclaimed. *He looked at the little cat, almost ready to take the pimp's face off.*


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 03:28 PM:

 

B-movie man shuffled over to the Silver Pimp,resting his arm on his chainsaw.

"I`d help you like...but man it looks like sooo much effort..."


Posted by KS on 10.02.2003 at 03:40 PM:

 

He turned to B-Movie man and smiled, "Too moch effort? Jeez you lazy!" He frowned, "Take some ho's with yas if you want. Maybe that will cheer ya up." SP (Silver Pimp) smiled.

"Anyways, back too tha cat!" He brandished his pimp cane.


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 03:43 PM:

 

BM brightened up though on hearing the word hos and pathetically kicked the cat off him,just enough force put in that could bruise a fly.

"I prefer the term energitcally challenged"


Posted by G24 on 10.02.2003 at 04:09 PM:

 

Chet was walking in the park when he saw a big brown shaggy dog. Normally this would be a cause for alarm but instead Chet remained calm as he walked past. After that the dog barked and he found himself up a tree. A tree full of bees. Chet deftly lept into a pond and then, just as deftly, lept out again when he realized that the dog he saw earlier was coming toward him. The whole incident took place in less than a minute but for our hapless hero it was an eternity.

However, he somehow manged to escape the dangers of the park and wound up at City Hall. He noted that the Silver Pimp was causing trouble again. He resolved to stopthis fiend when he saw a most terrifying sight. No, not the slacker with the chainsaw and mask, the adorably cute kitten! A vicious man-eating harbinger of bad luck and doom!

All thoughts of intervention were driven from his head as he ran full speed back to the park. He then ran back to City Hall being chased by the brown dog from before. His screams alerted all who were standing nearby that he was coming.


Posted by CrashMan on 10.02.2003 at 04:21 PM:

  I fixed it!

Sterling dropped a dish, and it shattered on the floor. "My hero sense is tingling....." He ranout the back door, and came out a back alley, already in his armor. "The Silver Pimp! And B-Movie Man! My Arch Nemesis....es, es....No matter! I shall stop you!" Sterling ran at them, sword held high.....and tripped over a crack in the side walk. "AAAAHH*WHUMP!*"


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 04:25 PM:

 

BM looked at the fallen swordsman,"dude you should really just walk,I`m not going anywhere for awhile..urgh guess you want to fight,here pimp guy could you like rev this for me?"


Posted by KS on 10.02.2003 at 04:45 PM:

 

"No prahblem!"

*The SILVER (note to Crash) Pimp grabbed the chainsaw, grabbed the ripcord and yanked it with all of his supafly pimp strength (what with all the pimp/bitch slapping in all). The chainsaw revved and started to purr.

He handed it back to B-Movie Man, "Here yas go!"

*Then, a shriek of pure horror caught the SP's ear, as Fear, the VERY unlikely superhero emerged from the park. He motioned with his cane.*

"Ho Squad! Get him!"


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 04:51 PM:

 

BM grabbed the chainsaw and dragged it across the ground causing sparks to fly as he slumped over to the fallen swordsman,"don`t suppose theres any chance you`d be willing to cut your own head off?"


Posted by Tiamat Zero on 10.02.2003 at 04:56 PM:

 

Miss Knowitall was sitting in her chair typing away at things that made no sense. She pushed her wire rimmed glasses above her nose.
"Interesting...I didn't know Platypus's could do that."
A little dot came up on her screen
"Ah!! TROUBLE! I MUST GO! FOR I AM...MISS KNOWITALL!"
She dressed up all shiny cheapy like and took off running, but not before locking up the library.

-----

Coming upon the huge gathering she commented.
"Well you're all just like a gaggle of geese on their way from the north migratory dispenses of the upper regions!"


Posted by CrashMan on 10.02.2003 at 04:57 PM:

 

Sterling shoved himself up with heroic speed and strength!....and fell over onto his arse. "Ow. And no, I'm not cutting my own head off! When I finally get balanced, darn this armor, you'll be in a dilly of a pickle!"


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 05:00 PM:

 

BM shrugged,"uh sure why not...alright then hold still...don`t want to have to do this again",he picked up the chainsaw and held it above his head before falling back,into a sleeping position,"zzzzz......up an hour,damn I`m knackered"


Posted by KS on 10.02.2003 at 05:08 PM:

 

*Silver Pimp took his cane and poked B-Movie man.*

"HEY YOUS! GET THE F*CK UP BEFORE I PIMPSLAP YOU,"
SP screamed into his ear.


Posted by Corvus on 10.02.2003 at 05:09 PM:

 

BM looked up and sat up using his elbows and pushed his chainsaw towards Sterling using his foot,"but c`mon man,its like I have to move it half a foot...that requires far too much doing..."


Posted by Author X on 10.02.2003 at 05:39 PM:

 

The Forked Tongue ran down the street cackling, a nondescript sack over one shoulder. An over-weight police officer stopped to pant for breath behind him. FT turned and jogged backwards mockingly. "What's the matter, pudgy policeman? Eaten one too many babies today? Don't they have anyone better to send than the boys-in-berry-blue?"
"I... told... oof... you... it's... gasp... a... pant... slow... metabolism... gasp..."
"Slow like molasses, well, obviously not when you're scarfing it down, uweeheheheee!!!"


Posted by G24 on 10.02.2003 at 05:57 PM:

 

Fear ran into the Ho Squad and screamed in...no, wait, this is a good thing. Fear smiled and then realized what he was supposed to do.

"I have no time for you women of low moral standing!!!" Fear cried out. "I must defeat these fiends. Perhaps later."


Posted by Redwaters on 10.02.2003 at 06:14 PM:

 

Single Woman could be seen flying in and toward the City Hall window. Closer and closer she came until. *Wham* "Damnit, damnit. Forgot, can't go through walls if I'm flying." she cried as she slid down the window to the ground. Holding her nose she burst in through the door. Nasiled she said, "Do not fear, for I am here."


Posted by White-Jet on 10.02.2003 at 06:21 PM:

 

Well...it just so happens that Logic suddenly stood in front of Forked Tounge, not realizing she was there and tripped the guy with her godmoding strength.

OOC: She's a godmoding cat. She could show up anywhere...as long as she isn't destracted by moving objects Big Grin


Posted by Author X on 10.02.2003 at 06:31 PM:

 

Forked Tongue fell with a smack onto his back and dropped the sack with a whack, and raised his hand to smack, "Ack, watch where you're standing, you jack- oh, hello, it's the catastrophe waiting to happen." He quickly gathered the money that had spilt out of the bag.

((I couldn't help it, I started typing and that sentance wrote itself Laughing ))


Posted by White-Jet on 10.02.2003 at 06:33 PM:

 

Logic cocked her head to the side in a sort of curious fashion. She then walked over to FT and playfully bapped his head...which seemed to feel like a very hard punch to him.


Posted by Author X on 10.02.2003 at 06:50 PM:

 

The Forked Tongue jumped up, indignantly. "No fair, you're a cheetah!"


Posted by KS on 10.02.2003 at 07:57 PM:

 

*SP looked at how fear defied the ho's! It was something short of a miracle.*

"No mattah!" Silver Pimp exclaimed, "Ho Squad! Lapdance mode!"

*The strippers and prostitues grabbed ahold of fear and seated himself on one of the abandoned park benches.*

"Just thenk abowt it mahn! Alla dem will give you a lapdance fo free!"

*Too good to be true? You ask?*


Posted by White-Jet on 10.02.2003 at 08:19 PM:

 

Logic climbed up FT's back, putting a ton of weight on him. She yawned and groomed herself before curling up and falling asleep...thus knocking off her godmoding ability (Bad idea Look around )


Posted by Author X on 10.02.2003 at 08:38 PM:

 

As soon as the weight was released, the Forked Tongue got up and pulled the kitten off his back. "Why you little..." But then he noticed the policeman had almost reached them, "Don't think I'm a felinthropist or anything, it's just that I don't have the time right now, and I usually prefer not to insult the intelligence of anyone too stupid to be offended." With that, he tossed Logic at the officer, who had stopped to catch his breath again, and ran off again. As he passed the owner of the store he'd robbed, he gave him a rasberry, "This'll teach you, you pathetic comic book otaku, to fling petty insults at... the Forked Tongue!"
"Oh, I'm so scared!"


Posted by White-Jet on 10.02.2003 at 08:43 PM:

 

Logic woke up in the arms of the exhausted officer. Again, she cocked her head to the side, meowing, jumps off him and walks along the sidewalk.


Posted by G24 on 11.02.2003 at 04:09 AM:

 

Fear gritted his teeth and tried to concentrate on his mission but it was to no avail. The seductive power of the Silver Pimp's hos was far too strong. Fortunately, he saw a spider crawling near his hand. For a moment overwhelming terror and carnal pleasure battled fiercely for control of Chet. Panic won out in the end of course and, with amazing strength, Chet broke free and ran off screaming like the little punk he is.
