HERE IT IS, THE PROMISED MEME

LWOC DNA EPAC
CLOAK AND COVER

(AKA
C&C-2)
(AKA FRANKY STEALS FROM SILVER AGE COMICS AND STAR TREK)
Imagine a world just like the one in which the City resides, except everything is ever so slightly...off. One degree, one minor shift in reality, that alters everything. Changes lives, destroys cities, sets heroes down the path of villains and vice versa.

This is that world.

In short, this meme is a lead-up to an open RP, much like C&C2020. But unlike that setting, C&C-2 is in the present day on a parallel version of the C&Cverse. The AI Decima operates the Prisoner, which brings in people (the imPrisoned) from worlds that are like that of their counterparts stuck in the C&C setting, but just off by one major change in their personal history.

So, y'know, this is an alternate universe meme with setting fluff basically.

Oh right, and everyone lives in the HIVE. And the City is a smoking nuclear crater. And crime is rampant enough to make the US one gigantic lawless clusterfuck. It's not a pleasant reality if you're not an evil jerk.

NOW THAT I'VE GOT THE SET UP OUT OF THE WAY, go nuts! AU up your characters! Establish how their CR would change when instead of spending three years as a hero stuck in not-New York they spent three years as a supervillain stuck in not-LA. The open RP will be this Saturday 
so plenty of time for everyone to get around to this!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME(ME)

SANDMAN

Flint Marko didn't have the best childhood, yeah, and he was still on the iffy side of things, up until he was given powers in order to help fight the menace that was the Spider-Man. He became a hero, doing his best to help people even if he wasn't the sharpest hero around, y'know?

But jeeze, before he got prisoned, he was starting to slip, just a touch. Letting his anger get away from him.

In the atmosphere of the HIVE, he tries his best to be a do-gooder, but it's getting harder and harder, and sometimes he thinks that maybe he should just give up and join in the crime... (OH HEY I can drop hints as to wear I plan to take Sandman in CnC too if you reverse things...)
