cape and cowl 2020: planning post




C&C 2020


Someone call for a dystopian future au? Sometime around 2014 (THIS IS NEW, GUYS, WE'RE JUST SLIDING THE SHIT HITTING THE FAN FORWARD A FEW YEARS OKAY), the government in the City decided that they'd had enough of these superhero antics. There was a nationwide crackdown on metas, requiring registration upon penalty of incarceration. The network was shut down, and many residents were scattered to the winds. There are a few that stayed in touch, however. That's where you come in.

For some of you, this might be from before your time. Not to fear! Since it's a highly flexible splinter universe, there's pretty much no such thing as canon. Retcons abound, either as allowances for contradictory canon information (except for the premise, of course), or even just if the player wants to change something around!

So, use this post as a free-for all. New characters get new projected histories, dropped characters can be said to have come back, and old characters can be reexamined or given more story. On Sunday, an open post will be put up in [community profile] capeandcowl2020 proper, so use this time to work out information and pimp this out to players who're eligible but may not see this (you can also ahead and start your own posts in that comm)! Remember, any character that has been played in main game is automatically good to go, and you are welcome to make use of the musebox whenever the mood strikes you!

max gibson (age 3..0...? 29?)

[personal profile] motherofnemesis 2013-02-28 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
man this needed updating so much

but the basic gist of it remains the same! when registration hit max ran, because she really didn't like it and she thought she saw some bad stuff on the horizon with it, and then she kept running. eventually she wound up killing someone in self defense, and that was when she sent her suit back to dick grayson, even if she'd never known this version as well. she still thought of him as the head of the batfamily, and if she had to give up her suit because she couldn't consider herself worthy she'd rather he had it. so yes he got her suit and a note that said 'i can't wear this anymore' and max gibson to all intents and purposes ceased to exist.

she resurfaced among the resistance shortly afterwards, though she went mostly by the codename nyx or by various aliases, and worked as a courier and general information runner / basic grunt work, whatever was needed and would keep other people safe. she's been temporarily captured a couple times. overall she's a lot less nice to be around these days, but there's still a distinct max-ian air to her, even if a lot of it's a front now.

only a few people know she used to be batwoman.

monet st. croix (36ish?? comic book ages who knows)

[personal profile] insufferablysmug 2013-02-28 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
with all her team gone and her ties here mostly superficial, monet would have simply searched for the team most intent on doing really big damage to the bad guys and joined up, with the intent to do as much damage as possible.

so she's either still with them, older, not that much changed but wearier, or she's very very in jail right now. IDK WHICH
