UPDATE ON MARVEL MAX - more game info
Huddle up, folken. This here is a broadcast with more info about Marvel Max, since the number of queries that we've gotten has been increasing.
GAME RULES: Firstly, the game rules and application form/process will be posted very soon, probably later this week. We'll be posting about initial game continuity, vision, and story soon after that.
So tell your friends. We're looking for literate, intelligent and flexible players that are passionate about writing, passionate about their characters, and looking for an opportunity to indulge in some fun RP. This game will have everything; comedy (lowbrow to highbrow), adventure, violence, thrills, chills, and romance.
When we do post the rules, we'll ask you to confirm that you've read them when we approve your application.
GAME OVERVIEW: This game is going to have plots that are both player-initiated and moderator introduced. Participation in any plot is purely voluntary; flexibility is the key here at marvelmax. We won't be closely controlling or directing your play, as some other games do; rather, we encourage player initiative and creativity in creating stories that we'll all want to read. This game is going to be a mixture of Earth-616 continuity and MAX continuity, at player preference and discretion.
CHARACTERS: So who can you play? Literally any character in all of the Marvelverses is welcome, from Earth-616 on out. No character is too obscure for you to play here. Heroes, villains, mutants, supporting cast.
Also note that we'll probably be doing crossovers down the line. That means that if you've ever wanted to see Dr. Strange meet the Doctor from the Authority, you may get your chance. We'll also consider crossovers within the Marvelverse, such as the Ultimate!Verse meeting 616 continuity. The sky's the limit. Villains, heroes, mutants, supporting cast and cosmic characters are all welcome. More info is below.
There's a good possibility we'll be asking for characters from the Wildstormverse, Vertigoverse, Squadron Supreme, etc. We may even throw Concrete into the mix.
So, you're still not sure who you want to play, or the choices seem overwhelming?
Let's start with a list of teams, to break it down for you. We want Avengers, Defenders, Thunderbolts, Nextwave, Champions, A.I.M., X-Men, X-Factor, X-Force, New Warriors, Atalanteans, Skrull Kill Crew, the Crew, Young Avengers, S.H.I.E.L.D., Cosmic Marvel, Alpha Flight, O.N.E., Exiles, Inhumans, Excalibur, Runaways, Squadron Supreme, Star Masters, Heroes for Hire, etc. You name it, we want it.
