Time to check for interest.
Reviving an old attempt of mine. Going to use the Champions RP System to try to run a comic book/Saturday-Morning-Cartoony* Superhero RP. As a divergence from the original attempt, I've recruited Hardware to GM it. This will mean that there is some slight potential for smut, however the primary focus of this is NOT going to be smut. It's going to be "serious".
Setting for it will be Ark City.
For character creation, you can make your own if you are familiar with the system. If not, talk to Hardware to describe your character idea, and he'll use a nifty little program to make the sheet up for you! If you talk with him about it, it'll likely end up being a bit of back-and-forth while he tries to work out appropriate Powers to use to make the character.
For more actual setting details, the plan is to set this about thirty or so years after the historical event mentioned in the setting thread... "The Battle of the River". Any dice rolls will be handled by the GM (Hardware). Also, be aware that he's going to be instituting a "Dark Side Points" system... Rack up too many of those (earned by acting more like a villain than a hero) and your character will become an NPC under Hardware's control. However, there will also be warnings in-character for when someone's starting to slide into dangerous territory with their behavior. (i.e. You're starting to rack up too many DSPs)
At this point, he's looking at running this PbP in the SHRP subforum.
EDIT: *By "Saturday-Morning-Cartoony", he doesn't mean that you're restricted to stacked stereotypes that spout PSAs and shitty morality lessons. Just that he'd prefer more light-hearted characters over "Edgemaster, Iteration #447".
