I was thinking of creating a thread for the Scientists Six either related to Hellzone or more likely separate, involving them crashing a charity fundraiser. Ostensibly, its proceeds would go to funding STEM scholarships for young women. Depending on the feelings of the group, they could be legitimately making a donation (of something probably stolen) and then a fight breaks out, or they simply try to grab the loot. The reason it would probably be separate, is that I would invite anyone who'd realistically be at a high-society function (which might include Tony Stark etc.) which wouldn't quite fit with the Hellzone's purpose of being the origin story of the Defenders. At the very least, it might tie into Hellzone as a classical editorial aside e.g. "For more about character's injuries see, Charity Auction"). Some I could see doing double duty (Finesse as a rich girl; Lady Octopus as a Scientists Six member), if the player's up to it.

This event I can only really see as an epilogue to Hellzone when the city has begun rebuilding and the Defenders are already a team, especially if Time Knight and Spider-Man, two of the new Defenders roster, are a part of it. But having that rapport for the characters would make it easier to interact and the fact a charity being held in the aftermath of New York's gang war makes logical sense especially in a city picking up the pieces.

I think an epilogue to Hellzone would be pretty interesting. With Fisk, I like the idea of him putting on this front after virtually wiping out the competition, ready to do his part in remaking the city in a way that he sees fit. Perfect camouflage.

Epilogue works. That would also give players a chance to wind down a couple other threads to make room for something this big.

I think an epilogue to Hellzone would be pretty interesting. With Fisk, I like the idea of him putting on this front after virtually wiping out the competition, ready to do his part in remaking the city in a way that he sees fit. Perfect camouflage. There's a problem with that. IF Kingpin turns out to be the final boss of Hellzone, then HE is going to jail. Sure he can always bust himself out, but whoever gets the hotseat by the end of act 2 (work that out with Sid because he's playing 2 of the 4 bosses and then PM me with the decision) is the one who gets pummeled into the ground and chucked in a penitentiary. So if Fisk is the one who winds up on top, then he trying to rebuild the city wouldn't be easy behind bars unless he plays turncoat, gives the Defenders the means to stop whoever is winning (Negative, Hood, or Goblin) and THEN after the Defenders save the day he DOES take over as the Kingpin does. But again that's how the endgame would play. Work it out with Sid what you want to do and then PM me and if you go the route I suggested THEN Kingpin COULD work in this story, but if not then he gets fugitive crime lord status.

It would not be out of character for Kingpin to be playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers.

All right. That'll take some consideration, so I'll go over it with him and we'll work from there.

The Scientists Six would be there, that's his excuse.

True, true. Also, off-topic, when will this event begin?

Not sure if this is an event so much as it is a single story.

It's a story. It's here as part of an event. It will be the last act of Hellzone. As it's in Act 1 of 3, might be a month or two before it starts. So, plenty of time to wind down other threads before then.
