you could just drop it to 28 ten years have a nice dramatic feel to it.
That it does. 28 it is then.
Well how about capture us with PL X devices that we have figure away around or break out from their confinement, as for working I am sure mind control threatening our beloved, torture etc. is nice and classic methods, of course they may just want to extract our DNA, alien parasite/life form, recover artefacts etc. to start anew with a new bunch of victims... I mean test subjects.
I think anyone selected can do some tweaking if necessary. I was relying on this as a rough guide for Kit Reynard's background.
My theory has been Kit's earliest memories are of being four or five. Ten years or so of training makes her about fifteen when the breakout happened. Another ten years has her about twenty five. Of course it's hard to keep track of time when you're being abused and genetically modified in a laboratory.
Both scenarios fall into play, but the organization generally took younger children if possible. They wanted young, malleable minds.think of everyone being teen years or younger when the revolt happened, and moving on witht heir lives. It's been roughly 10 years since TG was heard of before they launched their campaign to bring everyone 'back into the fold'.
I don't know why but I totally missed the ten years mentioned there :) but it fits, admittedly Trup might tell me (should I get selected) to rewrite the background since mine is rather young still ;)
I assumed we all got out in the same event too, and that Jefferson was sedated at the time. He was just left in his cell, and by the time he had woke up all of TG's employee's were dead and the other supers were gone. For the first time in his remembered life he wasn't on heavy drugs, so he discovered his abilities for the first time.
Working on an image for his appearance.

A couple of questions about the setting. Roughly how long has it been since the initial break out? Did Tallow Genetics have the subjects from birth or were some "recruited" later in life? (And I can totally see both scenarios in play.)Both scenarios fall into play, but the organization generally took younger children if possible. They wanted young, malleable minds.

I've been trying to be meticulously vague with Kit's timeline so expansion or contraction can happen as needed.
Nice. So 28 works very well. That's awesome!
I wouldn't worry too much about your Kit's age, Zouron. You've already stated that Kit Smith was one of the youngest escapees and Kit Reynard helped a five year old get out. ** spoiler omitted ** Your character build doesn't seem to require a specific age range. Kit S isn't a skill monkey unlike another Kit that could be mentioned and her powers are provided by an artifact found in an ancient Egyptian tomb. The kid with the weird hair in Yu-Gi-Oh can get all kinds of esoteric knowledge from an Egyptian artifact, why can't little Kit?
Yeah I feel it could work out as is, but you never know what someone else thinks ;) Speaking of weird hair, I have seriously considering that Kit (S) should dye her hair in a redish purple colour, hmm or blue... or green *ponders*.
star light got her powers at the event to

I got a concept in mind that had to go through a few iterations since the original couldn't really be used in this scenario.
Julian Drakeson (AKA "Silver Drake")
Julian is actually something far more than a simple lab experiment; he's descended from something greater. He doesn't know this, of course, and his earliest memories are, in fact, of tests, experiments, and survival. As his mind and body grew, however, he began to suspect that not all of what he was told by his captors was the truth. On escaping, he blended into society fairly well, all things considered. His human form made it easy to find a place for himself, especially thanks to all the education with which his captors had so graciously bestowed him.
Julian is a normal guy overall, maybe even a bit nerdy...until he shifts into half-dragon form. Wings, tail, claws, silver scales, cold breath, immunities, and plenty of might to go around. Definitely plan on being a viable tank, since we seemed to have a few entries for other archetypes covered. I picture him as an insightful brawler who is after a bigger motivation than simple revenge. He knows that what he's been told doesn't add up, and he wants answers.
Need to work out a build, of course, but I have a lot of juggling to do. Any thoughts? encouragement? yays or nays?
That's basically what vamp looks like. He can detach his jaw like a snake when he's biting, so his mouth gets really huge. He's got teeth like this. They're lined with carbon nano-meshing to make them virtually indestructible, and they function as straws allowing his unique musculature to suck blood out at a rapid rate.

*shudders* that's creepy!
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that guy tattooed the whites of his eyes black. I didn't add that. All I did was make the mouth wider.
Found this amazing image of the StarSeed in then Tallow Exobiology Lab just before Subject 27 (Lilly) was dropped in it as a 11 year old girl. This being the event that made the being now know as Star_Light.
She also looks like this from time to time hehe

Reminds me a bit of the diseased vampires from the blade movies, nice :)

The idea sounds fine, so I advice haste in making a build considering:
Alright everyone I am currently looking over all the submissions, and will be closing submissions tonight. Unfortunately my home computer suffered a terrible accident and I will not post again till monday. On monday I will pick out the characters participating in this campaign. There have been some amazing concepts so far so I don't look forward to cutting anyone!
Just on a funny note, What a real life super looks like, Meet Roger.
Tempting as an idea hummm
Sorry that I never got my submission in. I realised I haven't played M&M3 pretty much since it came out and I kept forgetting to add advantages and benefits to my powers and character that he really should have had so I kept making changes which would cascade into the need for more changes and so on.
It didn't help that HeroLab kept spitting out totals that didn't jive with what I had on paper. I really need to thumb through the rulebook again and reacquaint myself with it. Looks like the group will be interesting; I'm interested in seeing how it goes.
Sir jolt: I don't think Trup has made a selection yet, so should go ahead and submit what your thinking of. Never know :)
True. But considering the low success/high dropout rate of most online games, it doesn't seem fair to expect a DM to select a character based solely on an idea that has no solidified crunch yet.
Yep no one has been picked yet, Sir Jolt get a back ground done and we can all help with the crunch
I'm currently going over the backgrounds and will be posting the picked submissions here later, along with opening up the discussion thread.
yay!
