I think we've kinda worked on that already. We need to know where all the characters are and if there's something that's happened with them between Ragnarok and our RPG timeline that would affect the other characters.
Remember that the Sokovia Accords are a big deal right now. Steve Rogers and the ones who'd sided with him are still in hiding because they're still wanted by the government. Due to the Sokovia Accords and the problems Earth has had with aliens, I'm sure the world is now always on heightened alert so someone who doesn't look human wouldn't be able to just walk around freely without drawing attention.
Also, after seeing Ragnarok, it appears Doctor Strange seems to know when someone arrives that is not from here. Thor and Loki hadn't been on Earth long at all before Strange swooped them up.
If everyone who hasn't already can just reply here with what their plan is on where their character is starting out in current RPG timeline and what they've been doing since we last saw them, that'd be great! We can make sure it matches up and that other characters properly react to and recall their interactions with your character.
Ilona, I did mention in Hope's post something that I'd come up with whilst writing it. I had said that one of the reasons she'd agreed to contract with the Avengers was to use Stark's and the Avengers' resources to weed out Hydra connections that had gotten into Pym Tech. Hope that's alright!
I was also thinking that in order to have something for she and Stark to do, maybe she checked in every now and again. I was thinking that another Pym Tech location could be in New York near one of Stark's places and near the Avengers' facility. If people ever see them in public together, like if they decide to have a dinner meeting or are seen talking at some event, it's easily assumed that Stark Industries and Pym Tech have collaborating on a project. Hank would be thrilled. XD

Oh right! Sorry, I forgot about that ^^' Well, as for my chars I'm fine with everything actually. Just would like to play out the reunion between Bruce and Natasha! <3 Your mention in your Hope post about Tony is totally fine with me. Gives us something to do between the two of them at times.

DarkSideCookie The Jester Of Tortuga For me it´s okay to start now. So, regarding to my Characters: 1.) Kyrin (OC) - He is living on Thanos` ship (Sanctuary), often at his masters/"fathers" side. So I think, he already knows Hela. ( Lady Lee-o ) 2.) Rocket - He will be everywhere where the Guradians are. Last time they were in space on the Milano. I´m not sure if they could decide to go to Earth, too. Perhaps if they really met the asgardian ship when it was faced with Thanos´ ship, they rescued and accompanied them. 3.) Loki - In my oppinion he should be still at Thor`s side, because I like the scene in the end of Ragnarok where it seems like they could get along a bit better. Of course, he possesses the Tesseract because he took it with him when he was sent to get Surtur`s crown. Currently I wouldn´t let him go along with Thanos. (That doesn´t mean that the mad titan couldn´t try to get him on his side. *gg* ) But it would be also too difficult because of Hela. I think they hate each other too much. And last but not least: Loki is no real villain. He´s a misconceived little brother, who sees himself always in the shadow of his older Bro. Someone who wants to find his own role in life - even if that means to stop at nothing. I also can imagine Thor went to Tony Stark when he was back on earth, but didn´t tell him about having Loki with him. (In this case Dr. Strange could be an interesting factor... perhaps I should think about playing him... ) (It will be exciting to see how he´ll change during the plays because of the interactions between all the characters.) 4.) Winter (OC) - New York, at school, helping the neighbours or stalking Tony Stark.

DarkSideCookieWhich location do you want to use for Tony and the "kids"? And who shall start writing?

It could actually be any place in the city of New York. Anywhere with trouble coming up. ^^ Well, as Tony would be the one joining at some point, it should be you or Jester to start I think. Also, I don't know if you maybe want to come up with a special problem there or maybe just letting it be a brutal thief or sort of. I'd be fine with anything Tony can get them out later. XD We anyway will have to wait for The Jester Of Tortuga. Anduin

Okay, you guys, I've created a new location for our RP with Peter, Winter and Tony. I thought a little mart with a gas station right next to it, adding more danger in it lol, would work. One of you, feel free to start the scene. Also, I was thinking, if we could make this a flashback RP. I'd like to play out several scenes with Winter and Tony after, that shall happen in different periods of time if you're okay with that. Maybe like some months before our actual point in time with everyone? And if, how much months? Besides, I thought this would make my idea of Tony and Pepper having another breakup after his charming marriage proposal looking more fresh and hurtful for them. I wanted Tony to be kind of the old playboy for a while again lol. Not necessarily in the way, he's been back in the past, cause he still loves Pepper of course, but well, at least throwing some parties and drinking a lot of alcohol. XD Anduin The Jester Of Tortuga

If you want it to be set in the past maybe just add a time stamp next to the location. Might help keep track of all your time jumps.
Just an idea.
If it is a flashback let me know when it is taking place so I can make Peter's post reflect that.

Well, I think we can just add the date of flashback on top of our first post, like Heidi and I did with Andro/Hope. I've talked to Anja also and suggested the scene to take place three months before our current timeline. Would that be okay with you too? I'm flexible though. ^^ So you would add something like *three months ago* on top of your post. I think that should do. The Jester Of Tortuga Anduin

Hi all! Sorry if I seem like I’m being real knitpicky but if we mess up any important little detail in the beginning, it’ll just unravel into a big mess!
Let’s discuss what happened to Thor, Loki, and Bruce. They were on the ship with the Asguardians and Thanos’ ship, the Sanctuary II, came upon them. That’s about six months before our RPG.
Bruce (as Hulk) is a person of interest. Before he took off, he’d torn up the city after Scarlet Witch mind controlled him. I remember them mentioning Hulk and his whereabouts as well as Thor in Civil War. They pointed out to Tony that he didn’t even know where his own team was. I’m sure they’ll definitely wanna take Bruce in after Hulk apparently went off his rocker and he knows he did that so I’m sure he knows that he has to carefully return.
So what happened when Thanos came upon them? Thanos is on the hunt for the gems. Should we say that in exchange for Loki (maybe Thor also?) and the tesseract, he let the Asguardians go? Then Bruce would have taken over lead to get the Asguardians settled on Earth. Space travel takes awhile. I have no idea how far out they were or if they had light speed travel. We could make it that Bruce and the Asguardians just arrive as our rpg starts. Natasha or the Avengers or Strange at least could find out and maybe Natasha goes or is sent to meet him? Since she’s the one who knows the lullaby and seems to have the strongest connection to both Bruce and Hulk. Or maybe he shows up on Natasha’s doorstep after getting the Asguardians settled, feeling like she’s the only one he can really trust to not turn her in? He can have learned about what happened and the Sokovia Accords.
The area Odin chose for The Asguardians seems remote. It’s this ginormous piece of land and I think one of the reasons he chose that spot was because his people could “move in” there without anyone really noticing. Or at least we can say that’s one of the reasons.
So now Thor and Loki. I know we saw Thor land on the hood of the Milano. I think we should keep that. I like the idea of him arriving with the Guardians. 😊
Of course what happens in the Infinity War trailer takes place after what we’re basing our RPG on so we don’t necessarily have to keep that but I really like the ideas I saw in the trailer.
For Loki, in the Infinity War trailer, we see him handing the tesseract/stone to Thanos. My guess is that Loki handed it over in exchange for letting the Asguardians go. So he may appear to be on Thanos’ side but I’m guessing he actually did something for someone else for a change. Even if that meant handing over a stone. Maybe Thor disagrees with Loki about handing it over, thinking that keeping the stone away from Thanos even if it means sacrificing his people is more important cuz if you think about it, in the long wrong, with the stones, Thanos has the ability to take out/control/change ALL life.

As for Banner: I think he actually wouldn't search for Natasha, even though if that could mean to not see her ever again, because he still sees himself as a danger and now being a person of interest he wouldn't want her to see in danger, above all not because of himself. I imagine him, after having fulfilled the task to bring the Asgardians save to earth (so, with that idea I'd be totally okay), going into a self-chosen exile again. Actually, I could imagine Natascha getting him out of that for a second time (just as she did when they have first met). She's very brave and stubborn, so I think once she hears about Bruce is back on earth, she'd totally plan to find him, even of not to get him back but to see if he's fine. Maybe Tony knows about Bruce going into hideout (I mean Tony and Bruce always were close to each other, so Bruce might have talked to him), without though knowing where, and accidentally prattles that information away to Natascha? Would give us also a Natascha/Tony RP. Just ideas. What do you think? Lady Lee-o

Post by Hollywood Heidi on Jan 5, 2018 9:37:42 GMT -8
I totally agree that Bruce would avoid Natasha knowing he was back. Maybe even all his old friends. I think he’s really ashamed at what he’d done, even though he was provoked. He definitely sees himself as dangerous but after spending years as the Hulk, I feel like he knows a Hulk isn’t as feral of an animal as he once was. Still, I agree he’d remain in hiding. Maybe he stays and lives amongst the Asguardian people? Kinda watching over until Thor and Loki arrive or it’s just a safe hiding place since they were able to sneak in a whole civilization without raising red flags.
I’m thinking Tony somehow finds out with his fancy toys or satellites. Or Strange somehow does but seeing as no gods had arrived with the Asguardians maybe it even escapes Strange’s notice?

Post by DarkSideCookie on Jan 5, 2018 9:47:58 GMT -8
Yes, I think now the bigger danger he sees in himself would be the fact that he's a person of interest and shouldn't be seen with any of his old friends, especially not Natascha. I like the idea of him staying with the Asguardians. Though I imagine him despite holding kind of a healthy distance to them, as he still sees the Hulk could become a danger, once he gets stressed out because of something. We saw him worrying about that in Thor Ragnarok. I think, if Lee-o is okay with that anyway, the remeet between him and Natascha should take place before our actual timeline too. Not long before, but so that they could be with the others later too. I mean, we normally don't do big timejumps, so that could be a problem later then. Also, it's neat to see what happened to everyone in the meantime. I agree that Banner maybe wouldn't have told anyone that he's back. I'd also prefer it to be Tony to find out though. I mean we anyway do not have a Dr. Strange player. And it somehow fits Tony. Also that he could prattles that away, maybe when he had one glass too much. XD

Anja just told me she had an idea as for the Asguardians. As she unfortunately won't be able to make it here this weekend, I'll post it here for her. The idea was that the Asguardians could built up a new town in Norway, calling it Asgard as well, at the place where Odin has died. That could actually work! Bruce being in Norway would be cool too. But then we really would have to make the potential Bruce/Natascha remeet a flashback.

The Asguardians have lost their god protectors. Even though Bruce sees himself as dangerous, I kinda picture him feeling responsible to guard over them until Thor returns. He is the strongest Avenger after all. 😆
And I’m totally fine with Natalia having tracked him down before our actual current RPG time. I don’t see that as a problem. 😊 We all just need to agree on how long it took for them to get to earth. That would mean most likely that’s how long it took the Milano. They were most likely somewhere near Thor. Even if Thor had gone with Thanos for a bit before being tossed out. Unless Thanos had him prisoner for like a month or two before tossing him out or before Thor escapes and jumps??

I didn't mean Bruce not guarding them, but to "live" alone under them, just like doing his job and also appreciate their presence, but when it comes to a situation they want him to "hang out" with them, he says no with a friendly smile. It's just the way I see him there. Don't see why that is a problem actually. ^^'
As for the time they needed, I really have no idea actually. ^^' But when the discussion regards Thor and Loki, we really should wait for Anja to catch up here, as it wouldn't be fair I think.

I can see Natasha looking for Bruce, maybe asking Tony to try and locate him for her. Or at least "Borrow" some of his equipment to find him. She'd want to keep him off the radar of the others, Wanting to make sure he was okay first and foremost.

Hey guys, which actual month do we want to let our RPG take place? I thought maybe May 2018, as that is the release date of Infinity War? Let me know your thoughts. I'd like to add the month on top of our flashback scene, that's why I ask.

|

Post by Hollywood Heidi on Jan 8, 2018 20:10:25 GMT -8
I think May works! Probably just easier to line it up with when Infinity War comes out. It also gives us a nice amount of time (6 months) between Ragnarok and now to make things happen for our characters the way we want them to.

Hey everyone - I'm back online! It´s kinda strange having NO Internet for nearly one week... So, I had some time to think about ideas for our RPG. I like the idea of Thor dashing against the Guardians spaceship, too. Hollywood Heidi In my opinion, this could happen just at the beginning of their encounter with Thanos. Thor wanted to fight against the Titan – and to be honest: We all could imagine he really tried to jump at the Sanctuary! So he jumped down! But then the Milano arrived at this place, coming directly from hyperspace. (Sorry if this is the wrong word, I don’t know how this is called in your language. I hope you all know what I mean.) The Guardians get him into their ship, while the Lord (*gg*) of Thunder still was a bit muddled by the slump. He asked for their help on his people, so the Guardians could decide to make a distraction. Meanwhile, Thanos ship attacked the Asgardians and some of his allies stormed their ship. (Maybe my OC Kyrin was with those allies.) When Thanos noticed his former daughter Gamorra and her people, he tried to catch them. So the distraction worked. But that meant Thor and the Guardians have to leave the scene to give the Asgardians a chance to escape. (So this could mean Thor has to stay at the Milano for a while. Later – perhaps at our actual starting point in May 2018? – he wanted to travel to earth to search for his people.) Even if Thanos followed the Guardians there were still some of his allies left on the Asgardians ship. And they kept on attacking them. Most of them were helpless, only a few (Loki, Valkyrie, Hulk, Heimdall, Korg) were able to fight against superior forces. So they lose... When many of them were already dead, one of Thanos allies (Kyrin?!) made an offer: They could go – if the Tesseract would be given to Thanos! (Probably no one – instead of Loki – knew that the artefact was with them until this moment...) Loki agreed to save his people – and to save himself. When they later arrived at the earth Loki made himself the new King, saying it would be his duty to take his brother‘s place till he will be back... That's just a suggestion, but I think it would fit Loki's or Thor's character. ^^ btw - I decided to play Thor as well. (We need more Avengers ^^ ) I'll post a bio for him tomorrow. Today I'm too busy with reading so much posts.

The Jester Of TortugaJust to be sure I don't missunderstand your post: Do you want Spidey and Icey (yay, I like this nickname ) knowing each other? I mean their alias, because I think they know each other from school - but only as Peter and Winter. Haha, I think this would be funny! Both of them think their counterpart is a stranger, but in actual fact they aren't.

Hi you guys!!! We need to determine when Tony’s party is happening. Current time or flashback? I think anything works, really, but I’d like Hope to be there so not during the time of her flashback scene, unless she’s just gotten back or is just gonna he heading over. I’m assuming it’s at his New York house?

Post by Hollywood Heidi on Jan 12, 2018 23:14:11 GMT -8
Okay, house part answered. Just wanted to set the scene a bit. What kind of a party is this? What’s the occasion (if there is one), who all was invited... just trying to figure what it all looks like and what Hope and everyone would be wearing, types invited (more of a work shindig or random friends of Tony or corporate-y types of people associated with Stark Industries and maybe Pym Tech). I’m totally cool with whatever everyone chooses! Just need to know so I can work out Hope’s reactions and mindset. 😊

Actually, it IS important this is taking place in the past. Remember we earlier talked about Natasha is going to search Bruce after that? It would take her a lot of time to find him in another country. And I wouldn't want that to not happen, because we're doing only timejumps like one day later lol. Also, I would appreciate to be able to play Bruce with the other Avengers together later. So we just need to figure out how much time Natasha actually would need to find him. Maybe Bruce wouldn't come with her in the end because of the danger he sees in that and also because he feels the responsibility to the Asguardians and stay with them. I can imagine Bruce coming back to New York at one later point, maybe because he hears of a real danger Natasha is in. So I thought it would be great, if his appearance back in New York was our current point in time. What do you think?
Hm as for Tony's party "theme". I think he doesn't really need one lol. Since Pepper should have left him, he at first sunk into work and frustration, but then happened to go again for being Party Tony lol.
