Actually, on the note of Spidey... the Defenders would likely get involved. Their whole thing is basically stopping gang wars to prevent the next Hellzone and this is shaping up to be a good candidate for that very thing.

I'm down. I've got... three solid options. Mutant: Hope, she's new in town and likes to find her own causes, so this could be a good one to introduce her to the wider world we're in and get her some connections she doesn't have by putting her in the main group as their 5th. As a mutant, she doesn't currently have ties to any of the X-Groups but if you want someone more connected to the mutant race as a whole, you're gonna have a hard time finding it. Investigator: Like Astro said, when it comes to investigations, M, Quicksilver, and Multiple Man are pretty much who ya call. If it deals with mutants, they're on the case. Might be good to run some side stuff with them involving this and whatever mutant stuff you have planned? Street: Spider-Man. This is all so far up his alley, I'd be insane not to throw him in here. Whether he joins the 'group' or more likely just has some spinoff adventures as you see fit, I'm down either way. Secret: Let's talk on Discord or something, I definitely have some stuff I'd love to see happen with this sort of thing but I don't wanna go spoiling it here. Absolutely not trying to take over, but I've got some ideas and if you're down, I think it could be a lot of fun

If there's a rule I wanna break it. If there's love I wanna make it. If there's a risk I'm gonna take it. -------------------- Shadow flexed her fingers, frowning as she looked down at the hand. It had been years since she had lost her arm and leg. Years since the disaster that had taken Helena from her and left her maimed. It had pushed her, though. Pushed her in ways she didn't know was possible. She had adapted, brought her powers to new heights. No longer was she caught between a world of light and dark, now she functioned in both but the cost was high. Her shadowsuit was now permanently bonded to her, forming the prosthetics that allowed her to function as normal which also meant less ability to manipulate her suit since more of the shadowstuff was tied up in just making her somewhat normal.
It also marked her, the onyx arm and leg easy to identify even if she disguised the suit as something more mundane.
The world had changed with her. She had left it for a while, sought to bring back the mage, worked with a demon to travel hell itself. When she returned, empty handed, little was recognizable. What she had once done for fun, for the thrill... now it was survival. Trinkets of power she could collect to help herself in this brave new dung heap of a world or sell to afford food and weapons. Either way, it didn't matter.
All that mattered was the job.
Reaching her blackened hand into the nothingness of her Darkforce pocket, she pulled out the Libellus Scepter, instinctively taking the shadow of it and pulling a copy into her other hand. "Alright ladies, time to go to work. We're being paid the big bucks for the vehicle but any tech, magic, or other you see, you take. Adeline, you're with me," she said, glancing over at the shadow djinn that had been summoned as soon as she made the mantle of the scepter, "Aisha, you do you. Be safe."
-------------------- I'm gonna get what I came for.

All the good love when we're all alone, Keep it up girl! Yeah, you turn me on. -------------------- Quill led the way, blasting down anything that moved too near the group while Gamora covered the longer shots. Mockingbird decided to get in on the fun and take out a Skrull that stumbled out of the smoke which brought a grin to the pirate's lips. Seemed the lady had some attitude left even after a few years being kidnapped and picked on by Skrulls.
Once they got to the CITT which was pleasantly nearby, he stopped to watch a chair roll itself down the ramp, frowning. He had no problem with Rocket doing a bit of redecorating, the guy was the mechanic, but throwing out a chair seemed... Sighing, Star-Lord reached down and grabbed it, hauling it up with him as they boarded the ship. Throwing it haphazardly into a corner, he shook his head. Spare parts were worth keeping around and if nothing else they could sell it for a few marks.
Turning his attention to Thor, he gave the big guy a thumbs up. Having a lightning god to cover their exit was probably a good call. He didn't get to make it to the bridge though, stopped as Gamora popped up like a ghost and placed her blade on their rescued captive's throat. Raising a gun in case this was suddenly a Skrull, he stopped himself when he heard the question. "You know... that actually is a pretty good question. I mean, we're good, but this... one of us usually ends up shot. No one was shot. Not a great complaint but... that's too easy. So either Thunderbritches turned the tide way more than seems likely or they wanted us to grab you. Care to shine some light here?"
He hadn't even given it much thought. Follow the info, find the captive... It all made a nice little line but now he was second guessing him himself.
-------------------- I'm hooked on a feelin'!

Okay, so a few issues with this one.
1) This is more personal so on its own it wouldn't be a no but I wanted to include it to let you know a bit of where I'm coming from. Attacks on the homes of heroes has been reeeeally popular lately. About a year ago I started the Siege of New York (colloquially called World War Fisk) where 7 attacks occurred simultaneously on places like the Avenger's Mansion, Xavier's Institute (which was attacked by sentinels specifically), a helicarrier, and Mutant Town (which was wiped out). With these threads still going (Yep, a year later and they haven't wrapped up yet) having this basically happen all over again in what would be a short time in-game is pretty bonkers.
2) It looks like it would require at LEAST two temps. Typically temps shouldn't be needed to run an event. Here or there maybe, especially if they're absolutely necessary for a plot point, but with this requiring at least two it's a hard sell to say we have the people for it.
3) On the bigger picture, we have an Apocalypse plot happening and Secret Invasion ramping up for site wide plots. We're always happy to have more ideas from other players and even let people run their own 'events' with a little mod oversight but adding in rampant chaos and battles to these two heavy (and slow moving) plots not to mention the other things happening (like WWF for instance) is a bit much.
This isn't to discourage you. I actually really liked the 'Sentinels go after everyone' bit because it's really calling back to what Days of Future Past is all about and I would love to get Rachel involved in something like that. Still, streamlining this and making it less impactful is probably necessary just to cut down on plot fatigue and chaos.

Phase 1 - Hepzibah Convinces Sif that she can find the axe
Working on this thread now, the drunk Hepzibah thread. Which will end with Hepzibah and Sif going off to Asgard.
Phase 2 - Asgard Field Trip
In which Hepzibah meets Thor and tells him of their quest, insisting (through lies) that it hasn't been destroyed. Wishing to regain the weapon of his fallen ally, he joins her and Sif.
Phase 3 - The Collector's Deal
Looking for more information on the whereabouts, the trio heads to the Collector. He agrees to meditate on its location while the party fetches him a new Klyntar, his previous one having been stolen by the Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain Marvel. (Depending on how long this takes, it could be its own thread or rolled into the beginning of 'phase 4' as the same thread.)
Phase 4 - Battle at Knowhere
To uphold their end of the deal, the trio hunts down the Collector's acquisition, a mission that sends them into space where an alien with a symbiote is wrecking havoc at the space station. Guess Quill shouldn't have left the Klyntar unguarded in Bug's apartment. (Highly recommend Gordy for the NPC alien/symbiote. He does one-off villains super well and it would keep him up to date with the thread so when the Collector is needed for the end, he's already involved)
Returning victorious, the party gives the Collector his payment and he tells them where to find the Bloodaxe. (Can easily fold this into the end of the thread instead of having a fully separate part here.)
Phase 5 - The Tomb of Jarnbjorn, Battle for the Axes.
Travelling to Earth, the group runs afoul of Angela on her quest for Jarnbjorn. Wielding the Bloodaxe and with her new Asgardian allies, the two groups fight with Angela recovering Jarnbjorn and Thor's team retrieving the Bloodaxe.
Phase 6 - Something something something Darkside.
Amended to make it a bit more streamlined while still hitting all the main points.

So Angela's story is taking part and will culminate beyond acquiring Jarnbjorn but we can totally have these two plots 'meet' at Jarnbjorn for a skirmish before I get to the really juicy bit.
Where Angels Tread: Angela finds herself back within the nine realms and comes to Midgard, one of the few places she knows from old stories that isn't immediately hostile to the Angels of Heven. Meeting many of Earth's heroes, Dr. Strange eventually agrees to take her to Asgard so she can speak with the All-Father.
Side of the Angels: Dr. Strange teleports himself and Angela to Asgard where the pair force a meeting with Odin, Thor, and Sif. Odin reveals Angela is his daughter which has her question things but adamant about returning Heven to its place in the Ten Realms, she doesn't accept any other alternative and when Thor offers her a 'test' to pick up Mjolnir, she refuses and leaves, promising Strange his payment once Heven has been returned and her coffers are available once more.
Angel's Advocate: On Earth's moon, Loki finds Angela and the two make a bargain. Loki tells the Angel of a legendary wedding dress that can block Heimdall's sight in return for promises of Heven's legions siding with Loki in a bid to bring down Odin.
Angel in the House: Angela arrives at the temple to claim the wedding dress for her own. Heimdall, having seen her actions, sends his sister to prevent this. After a small skirmish, Angela slips past the warrior and into the temple. The love of her people and Sera sees her through the challenge inside and she lays claim to Siri's Wedding Dress which becomes a winged suit of armor on the Princess and she takes wing, disappearing into the vastness of space and leaving Sif to tend her wounded pride.
So all of the above has happened so far. The next two parts will be Angela's hunt for Jarnbjorn, a weapon capable of cutting almost anything.
Part 5: Angela goes to Hel to speak with the Ruler of the Underworld. To make a deal with Hela, she offers the souls of the Angels to the dead queen to give them an afterlife that they had not had before. In return, Hela tells her of Jarnbjorn and where to find it. (In the comics, the Angels did actually go to Hel but were basically enslaved by Hela. Going around that with this provides something for Angela to offer and still opens up plot points in the future) To assist her, Hela gives Angela the Bloodaxe to use until she acquires Jarnbjorn.
Part 6: On Hela's information, Angela travels back to Midgard to claim the lost ax of her brother which as been hidden in a tomb for centuries.
Part 6 would obviously be the culmination of the 'Hunt for the Bloodaxe' where instead of searching that for weapon, they find instead Jarnbjorn and a fight breaks out over it. It doesn't need to be a total win for Angela but I would definitely like her to leave there with the weapon to set up her stuff going forward. Bringing in Loki and Hela to assist her (since they now have vested interests in returning Heven to the Ten Realms) would even the battlefield and even put the power on Angela's side so the win wouldn't need to be stupidly contrived.
Part 7 on: Secret.

All the good love when we're all alone, Keep it up girl! Yeah, you turn me on. -------------------- Peter couldn't help but grin behind his helmet as Thor introduced him. Sure, he botched his name a few times before setting on the right one but there was something intrinsically cool about having a god introduce you. "Yep, that's me, Star-Lord. Galactic Rapscallion. We'll do the introductions later. For now..." As they walked out, they met Gamora who informed them of the arrival of C.I.T.T. before she dispatched a pair of guards.
"For now, let's go ahead and get off the planet before we get charged with genocide." Sure, there probably wouldn't be a lot of tears if the Guardians got rid of the Skrulls forever but it didn't mean that's what Quill wanted them known for. Not that it wouldn't make the other empires out there think twice before crossing them. "Or at least before I find the idea tempting enough to follow through." A soft laugh left his helmet before he moved ahead, weapons at the ready to deal with any resistance on the way out.
-------------------- I'm hooked on a feelin'!
