We don't need another Hero

[Deleted]

two possible ideas if not ok for site maybe we can take it to the alternate universe. If mods are ok with obviously.
In the dark ideas of days of future past and age of apocalypse comes a new idea. A large explosion at a power type plant of a gamma reactor sends everyone there into there future self's. Or if we can come up with something better.

Dark days

With most of the mutant heroes dead or enslaved, it now falls to a ragged band of mutants, commonly known as resistance, to save what’s left of North America and possibly the world. Will they seek out the remaining X-Men, following in Xavier’s footsteps, and help to build a new future where humans and mutants live together in equality? Will they try to find the source of this alternate dark future and attempt to repair the splintered timeline, erasing their very own existence? Or, will they join forces with Apocalypse and serve as the vanguard for a new world order on the broken backs of homo sapiens?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second idea

“And there came a day, a day unlike any other, when Earth’s mightiest heroes and heroines found themselves united against a common threat. On that day, the Avengers were born—to fight the foes no single super hero could withstand! Heed the call, then — for now, the Avengers Assemble!”

A new type version Avengers more to come need to see if there is enough interest. I might pick up Captain America.

So you're saying Nightbreak can go to a Dark Future where he has become some badass super mutant killing machine and I can show how awesome his powers can be if maxed out?....I'm down.

Would we be seeing/meeting or becoming our future selves in this?

I'm down for either version with War Machine.

The first idea though cool won't work in the main universe and would likely be better done in an AU since what would be happening is this one event superimposes on all other current events/plots and forces them in the background as the focus becomes a dark future. A whole other world. This idea is broad sweeping, the effect will ripple. It would also inform the Apocalypse arc that is developing. Again, one can't speak for Apocalypse or his horsemen.You just have to wait and see how it goes and how it effects the characters, and therefore forming plot. So it'd be better off as an AU but slightly redundant and a detractor for the build up of a main universe plot arc.


Also with too many things going on, big plot after big plot on top of more big plot will create a bit of a mess, and plots will suffer because the attention owed is stretch way too thin. Plots need to breathe and develop before more irons are cast in the fire. The second idea is probably more doable in the main universe but again, too much going can take away from what is already developing. If you think about it, the Avengers and other heroes will probably have that "day" when Apocalypse and the horsemen are wreaking havoc.

I'd be cool If Jaker was in the Dark Future working for Apocolypse.

Yeah I agree about the Apocalypse one being kind of a necessary AU and even then unless someone has permission to play this AU Apocalypse, it'd have to all be vaguely inferred, and not sure how you're going to handle alerting people in the threads to the godmode that some people will likely wanna run with things if what is being posted is any indication.

On a side note, do a lot more pm'ing in the future or as in the case of this thread, include multiple possible 'side'plot ideas in one post. Right now the sideplot area, discounting pinned topic type stuff, include 17 threads, 12 of which are yours. It's great to throw out a plot and drum up interest, but once you have your players, take future communications to pm if possible so that other people's ideas aren't drummed to page 2 or 3. Not a major issue yet, but it's almost coming off a little like sideplot Tourette syndrome in here.

As the "Dark Days" is an alternate universe to begin with - a completely different time line from the present - then it would go in the alternate universe board. You don't need permission for alternate stories as they do not effect the main Universe. So run with it if you like, just keep it all there and not interfering or interacting at all with the main U.

Just to elaborate on the specifics in question, this includes playing any character as an NPC. Apocalypse, Thanos, Galactus, Morgan Freeman, any of those banned characters can be used as NPCs. Anything created in the AU board is completely subject to the whims of the creator with only ONE exception. You still CANNOT control played characters. Any details about a player character still requires permission as the owner of a character has possession of them across all universes. As for character power changes, they are also self-moderated and/or controlled by that worlds inventor (In this case that's Sid). All up to Sid there. Therefore 'Godmode' is technically allowed, players just need to realize what they're getting into here. Personally, I would recommend moderating yourselves away from such a concept since there comes a point when people just won't want to play with you, but again that's just a suggestion. The main board is about a 616 comic-'realistic' based world and where most focus lay activity wise and major plot wise. The AU board is more like a playground where you are free to make your own worlds and rules to play around in.

So, Sid, since your Dark Days plot is AU, you are free to do whatever you like in it and use whoever and whatever you see fit without coming to us for permission.

This board is meant for the purpose of posting plot ideas and seeing if anyone bites so Sid is free to post things and I have already told him to put them in different threads because of the confusion involved when he puts multiple plot ideas in one post. He is free to post his ideas, even if there are several.

That being said, Sid, do try to slow down a bit. Lee is not wrong in that when you post so many times other plots get pushed to the next page. Try to focus on a couple plots at a time and write other ideas in a journal or something. When you've finished a plot, then break out the next. Also if no one seems to be biting on some of your older plots and those pages have no responses and you wish to give up on them then please delete the thread so other plot pages can bump back up a notch.

Okay, hopefully everything about the plot and AU boards are clear and this thread can go back to being about the "dark days plot". If there are any further questions or issues then feel free to PM Superchick or myself so we can keep them from this thread so it can just be about the plot.

Carry on, Sid.

So I Plan on having Jaker in this, but is he captured and mutated by Sinister? Also could he be an enforcer of Apocalypse or a Scientist?

Avengers type storyline idea. This does not have to happen a first. Intense Solar flares strike the earth hitting content North America. Creating an emp of unmanageable destruction. the power went out on the Raft UltraMAX prison, an unlikely team of heroes who ‘just happened to be in the city’ gathered to deal with the problem. The Wrecking Crew (The Wrecker, Thunderball, Piledriver, and Bulldozer) show up for some time and was waiting for a good time to pull a heist and score some high-powered or expensive gear. They even heard rumors that a{insert artifact here } was here. They figured with all the NYC heroes busy with the breakout, the time was right. This is just for starters if it gets approve would like some input on this an ideas I know you all have them.
