This is an RP where everyone is a super hero (or just a guy with a bunch of gadgets or excellent combat skills that makes them almost super). It's okay to make your hero serious, or really stupid and cheasy for a comedy affect, like my character. Whatever your character is, unless you RP a supervillain who tries to stop the heros, your character must have some reason or desire to fight evil.
This RP takes place in a pretty generic city. If you really, really want it to take place somewhere specific, we'll say New York City.
Rules 1. As usual for all my RP's (and mostly everyone else's) no godmoding, powerplaying, etc. and no Mary-Sues. Even in a Super Hero RP, every character should have at least one weakness. 2. Romance allowed I guess, but this ain't no romance RP, and I warn you; if you do a romance between two Super Heros, their romantic moment shall likely be interupted by an ambush set up by me. Sorry, but I already said this ain't a romance RP. 3. After a previous RP with a character related to Batman, I have decided to start this rule in all Super RP's; Your character may NOT be an existing comic, movie, or cartoon Super Hero. Your character may not even be related to a copyrighted Super Hero. The reason for this is simple; Spider-Man and Super Man don't belong in the same universe. And above all, Batman and Mr. Incredible don't fit together at all. (Mr. Incredible is a character from the Pixar movie The Incredibles, in case you didn't know.) 4. Have fun or forever have your dreams haunted with horrible images of Michal Jackson! Just kidding, just kidding, don't hurt me...

I remember vividly the smell of pizza cooking. My mom was making pizza.
"Just a few more hours," she said. I groaned. Pizza was my favorite food, I hated waiting for it while the smell hang temptingly in the air.
"When'll you get a good oven so you can cook faster?" I asked her.
"I told you, your father's getting a raise at work. We'll be able to get a better oven after a few months," said my mom.
I was eleven years old. What I was about to go through is what no one my age had ever experianced. "I'm going for a ride in my bike," I told her. I just had to get away from the smell; it was making me hungry.
"Be back before dinner," she said.
I took my bike outside and rode around. I decided to ride to the nearby park; with a quick look at my watch, I knew I'd be back before 7:30. I parked my bike and took a walk down one of the hiking trails through the woods near the park. I breathed in some fresh evening air. That's when I noticed the object. Something in the sky; a black dot. It was getting closer. I didn't realize it was a spaceship until it landed several meters away from me. (I always like the metric system better than the composite; measures in ten are much easier.)
Heart beating with fear and excitement, I started to approach it carefully. When it opened up, a wounded alien stumbled out. "I am Tekora Tell," it said weakly. "I have come to you because you are the one guardian of your planet. You shouldn't have learned the secrets until you were older, but..." The alien howled in pain.
"Are you alright?" I asked.
"No. I am dying. I was the guardian of my planet... You are the guardian of yours."
"I don't get it," I said.
"You can fly,"said Tekora Tell. "You have enhanced strength given to you by the gods... You can shoot out bursts of energy from your fingertips."
"But what is the purpose of this power you claim I have?" I asked.
"To defeat the alien," said Tekora. "His name... Cannot be pronounced by your tongue, but he wants to take over your planet, as well as the rest of the galaxy." The alien clutched at his wounds. "I failed my own planet. When searched for the guardian of Earth, I found you. So I came here... But my ship was destroyed by HIS minions. There may be others with unique powers on Earth who gained those powers through different means. Team up with them. You must... You... Must..." Tekora Tell died.
And I became the world's youngest Super Hero.
Sam Man flew around the city, now finally getting the hang of flying. He recently made his own costume.
It had been two years since the alien crashed on Earth. (There was very good pizza afterwards, but Sam was a little distracted at the time.) Sam decided on the name Sam Man after he couldn't think of anything better.
His new costume was dark blue all over, with the symbol SM in the middle of the chest. He had a blue cape and a blue mask; basically, it was blue all over.
He had so far only stopped a couple of muggers; he hadn't dealt with any serious threats yet. But he had a feeling that the alien Tekora Tell had mentioned might invade Earth soon. So he kept on his guard at all times.

((Cool idea ^_^))
She was in the lead; not that it surprised her at all. Kayla jogged slowly around the track for about the fifth time already, and not even a trace of sweat graced her body. She was the school track star, and nearly undefeated. On those races she lost, it was only because she held back. ‘Nobody is perfect’, she would say to herself on those days. Sometimes she would have an accidental fall or sometimes she would just pretend she couldn’t run that fast. Kayla was a great actor when it came to running. It was like having a race against four-year olds; you could fool them into thinking they actually beat you. Today, however, Kayla was going to win. It was really boring winning all the time, but Kayla had so much pent up energy in her body and needed to release it.
“And the winner is…Kayla O’Dell!” The announcer’s booming voice crackled loudly through the speakers.
Kayla snorted with cynical laughter at her name. ‘More like Military Project KL-1’. Kayla was not a normal girl; she was a genetically engineered human. Kayla was created because the military was attempting to create perfect soldiers for the United States army. However, the military had actually allowed Kayla to grow up to see the results of their experimenting. They were not happy. Although Kayla had a great ambition to fight and more-than-human abilities in endurance and speed, she lacked in strength (though still stronger than most her size), and was much too independent in her nature for their likes. The military sent her away from the base, with her ‘father’ Dr. O’Dell, where they would record her activity and ‘learn’ from their mistakes. Dr. O’Dell, however, betrayed them and moved them far, far, away, where Kayla could grow up to have a ‘normal’ life. ‘Besides the fact that I can outrun and out lift the guys on the football team,’ Kayla thought to herself as she left the tack.
Kayla always held back with her skills. She wanted to be a normal girl, and didn’t want to be considered the ‘school freak’. ‘One more year, then I’m outta here!’ She would always murmur to herself as she wandered down the school halls, with her fake friends. They knew nothing about Kayla, other than she was excellent at track. Kayla, however, almost wished she was the school bully instead of the track star. The military had given her drive to fight, and she was always, looking for one. In class she would argue with the teachers until their faces turned blue, but it wasn’t satisfying enough. She would have turned to crime, but she had also been planted with a large amount of honesty and guilt. Kayla decided she wouldn’t be a police officer, as they reminded her of the military. Instead, Kayla would be a ‘super-hero!’
Kayla hadn’t done a whole-lot of saving yet. Instead she sat in her bedroom, night after night, working on a costume for herself. It was exciting, and gave her something happy in her life. Kayla hadn’t thought up a name yet. ‘That will come later. When I actually do something helpful, then I’ll give myself a name. Or better yet, maybe other people will give me a cool name.’ Her costume was simple, dark purple with a light purple emblem that remain empty at the moment, and a short cape that only reached the butt of the pants. She had also bought her self some tight boots that she dyed light purple to match. However, they ended up being a completely different shade of purple than the rest of her costume, but she didn’t care.
She stood in front of her full-length mirror, examining herself in the costume for the very first time. She pulled the mask over her eyes and smiled at the sight. ((Think Robin’s mask in batman only…purple)). Slowly she opened her bedroom window and dropped down onto the deserted alley. ‘Wait a minute…I can’t just walk around in my costume... I wish I could fly.’ She grumbled to herself as she climbed the fire escape ladders, trying to reach the roof of the building. The super-hero business was harder than she expected and she hadn’t even done anything, yet.

(That's okay with me, Keng. If you wanna make a hero later on, go ahead. Good character, Choc.)

((whee, this looks like fun. ^_^ Is it okay if I use my Darkaze characters? With the natural, though lamentable, exception of Violet.... There's the twins, Tyler and Xavier Kestrel, and their friend Amber Shore, and a maniac villain named Illusion who wants revenge on them for messing up her first plot. :3))

Sam Man accidently crashed into a building again, but it wasn't as hard as usual and he almost got out of the way. He hit the ground hard, but again, not as hard as usual. He staggered up, thankful that his enhanced endurance kept him from serious injury in that kind of situation, then took off again, flying through the city.

(I'd just like to remind people about this RP so it doesn't die out.)

{Is it okay if I use a character that's only part human and mostly alien of a couple different types?}

(I will allow that. But the only reason I do is because aliens already exist in this RP, so it's not too wierd.)

JL was cleaning out his attic in his house. "Man, this is hard work," he panted as he moved a heavy box from one side of the attic to the other. He heard a dull clunk as he lifted another box.
A torch light had fell on the floor. "Why my parents keep old junk like this? I don't know. What brand is this?" he said as he examined the torch light. "It's so dusty," he complaied as he rubbed it with his fist.
A click was heard and the torch light shone! A mass of vapour was emerging from the mentol in the torch light! The vapour formed into a pie.
"I am the pie, I mean, genie of the lamp," the pie said with a voice that sounded like Tom Hanks. At this point JL was backing away from the pie. The talking pie said, "Don't worry, I don't taste like asparagus." "You don't? That's a relief! Whew!" replied JL.
The pie thought to itself, "Now that I've got his trust I can screw him up.... Oh this is going to be SO fun." The pie said to JL, "Thank you for setting me free, you may have 5 wishes." JL said, "Don't you mean thre- never mind. So, for my first wish, I wish to be a human with powers to manipulate people, rich and well-known." "Ok, but I hate lawyers and I'm deducting 3 wishes off," said the pie.
*poof*
JL now donned a suit and a suitcase. He shouted, "I didn't mean to be a lawyer! Undo this wish and change me into a superhero which suits Sam Man's rules! By the way make it into one wish!" The pie would've rolled his eyes if he had any. He said, "As you wish. No pun intented"
*poof*
"You are now Lawyerman! You have the power to sue villains, bore your enemies to sleep with long contracts, lie without your smile faltering, and most impotant of all, YOU HAVE LEATHER TIGHTS! And not the cheap ones that were in the supermarket bargain bins," the pie said "But you have one weakness and that is asparagus pies. You will lose all your powers when you touch them. And by the way, you have one wish left."
JL admired his new supersuit and said, "Hmm, I think I'll save the last wish. Who knows maybe I'll use when I'm fighting crime."

Just a note, Sam, but about the Spider Man and Superman not being in the same worlds...? Well, Batman is in the same world as Superman, right? And one of my fave comics of all time is a Spider Man and Batman team-up...this won't really affect your rp, but I just thought you oughta know that these things are possible most of the time, except the Bats/Mr Incredible thing...that's just plain wrong

I don't think you really understand that Marvel and D.C. almost never team up. Batman and Superman are both D.C., and are therefore in the same universe.
And is there really a Batman/ Spider-Man team up? I find that really, really hard to believe.
