OOC Intro #12
Welcome to Apocalypse How!
You've made it to Gloucester, and you're probably in one piece! Mostly... This is our OOC Intro post, a place for new players to introduce themselves, get to know one another's characters and find see who and what and when might click.
This month, the mod-run event OOC post will be posted on 14th. Be sure to check the Calendar to see what else we have going on!

Can We Add You: Absolutely! Maybe give me a heads up if your character isn't in your profile?
Introduction: Hello, I am LP and I already got one John Carter in game! I'm into sci-fi/fantasy and I especially love campy shows like The Librarians or Leverage. Outside of RP I'm into songwriting, languages and video games.
Availability: GMT+1 and I'm usually around in the evening which I think is noon/early afternoon for most people. I'm usually more active on the weekends. Right now I'm on summer break so I have a lot of tagging time but I might slow down again once school starts back up. Re: brackets/prose I got no tagging preference! I tend to default to brackets but I can always match.
Extra: I had the best time on the TDM and I'd love to keep all his interactions!
Age: 19
Does Character Have Powers/Cursed Items:
Yes! When he feeds his Entity, Peter has superhuman strength/speed/agility, as well as his spider-senses which warn him from incoming danger and go together with his reflexes. He can climb walls with his hands and stick to them or chill upside down in a ceiling corner.
He also enters the game with two cursed objects:
Camera (CURSED):
Whenever Peter takes a picture with his camera, it can show him something about the character (with player permission of course). At the same time, Peter will feel watched by the pictures, growing increasingly paranoid and uneasy when looking at them or searching them for clues. Again with player permission: Using the camera will make him obsessed with his motifs, trying to find out more about them, convinced that they're hiding something important.
Web-shooters (CURSED):
The web-shooters are devices Peter created from Oscorp's research. They contain a web fluid that allows him to swing from walls or catch/trap people and objects in his web. If he's using them to trap someone, the web would feel like it's entering the person's mind and draw out a dark secret or an important memory (with player permission). Peter will be haunted by that memory for some time, maybe hallucinating the people/events in it. It will make him paranoid of the person he drew the memory from, too, thinking they're stalking him or are out to get him to retaliate, whether that's true or not.
These are all opt-in, of course, and I have a post for them over here.
Entity Affiliation(s): The Eye
Permissions: HERE
Information: In his world, Peter is a superhero vigilante, swinging around New York to stop criminals and the occasional genetically mutated supervillain. He's very pro-vigilantism, often feeling like the police aren't doing a good enough job of keeping the streets safe. When he wears the mask, he's quick-witted, full of quips and snarky responses for his enemies.
Outside the mask, he's a lot more unsure and awkward and can come across as a gangly teenager, often repeating or stumbling over words. He's a science prodigy who loves research and builds his own gear. He's also very boyish and gets excited easily. That, and he's a quite emotional heart-on-your-sleeve kind of guy. However, underneath the bubbly exterior he's actually a pretty traumatized teenager because people he loves keep dying in quite violent ways and he feels a ton of guilt over their deaths. Could use a hug probably.
Plotting:
Man, I am so excited to throw him at everything and everyone! Some ideas:
- Meeting people during the Bonnie Player Plot. Peter is going to stay at Bonnie's (mainly because of ADI's curfew) and he'd help out fixing everything up, that could be a place to meet?
- Getting himself or others in trouble for breaking the rules or just yeeting himself at supernatural stuff. I haven't played a powered character in a long time so I'm excited for the action. Carter is very sensible so there's a lot he sits out simply because he is not an idiot. Peter already got pecked bloody on the TDM by the birds because he just goes for it.
- Peter being a dumb Eye vigilante and terrorizing criminals around town to feed off them and fuel his powers because, uh, they're criminals? What's even the problem here? He's strung them up before to freak them out, why wouldn't he do it if it helps him get his powers back to fight for the good guys? It's a win-win for everyone?
- Conflict with other characters because he's being nosy/uses his cursed objects and becomes obsessed/paranoid. I got a pretty bare-bone Permission Post here if you're interested in getting some memories looked at or getting stalked
- I think there was a MCU Peter in game before I joined? If characters want to react to his name/"wrong" face with suspicion or Stranger vibes, I'm game for that!
- ??? Come at me??

Also, Yelena was briefly friendly with the MCU Peter we had previously, so she may casually bring up the whole same name thing at some point. She has enough of a grasp on the whole alternate dimensions thing that she wouldn't be suspicious per se, but would find it interesting.
Also-also, if you want Peter to get something horrible (from Yelena) or something deeply confusing and possibly but not necessarily horrible (from Methos) out of using one of his cursed items, I am definitely game for that at some point.

And excellent, I'm already looking forward to all the horrible and confusing curse effects /o/

and maybe some reluctant help ugh he swears between you and lukano subject

I think they could be something resembling friends provided Aelwyn keeps her more "villain from a DND world with shaky morals" traits on the downlow. They are the only 19 year olds here, I think.
no subject
I'd love for them to meet and have 19 year old dumbass energy together! Peter will be likewise shaken by the mirror event so I can have him hit up her network post maybe?
no subject
She's having a time, he's free to hit it up.
no subject
I definitely think he's got some memories that'll freak Petey out a bit.
Though I'll warn you, if and when he finds out Peter is actively feeding the Eye he will be pissed :D hopefully they'll get some CR built up first....
no subject
But he's doing it for GOOD? Doesn't that count? Maybe? A little? No?

I found a prompt in the event that worked! Yay!

Sweet! /o/

I’ve got here a Tony who just lost ‘his’ Peter for the second time in a very short while (since I brought him here from just after the Snap, oof), so I’m definitely curious about how he’d respond to an alt-Peter should these two run into one another. Will he respond with distrust? Curiosity? Inadvertent adoption? Let’s be real it’ll probably be inadvertent adoption.
Anyway I don’t think we’ve RPed together yet so nice to meet you lol, I’m Alice and I’ll add you on Plurk as soon as I can if you don’t mind? I’m

And I would l o v e for him to meet Tony for all the interesting disasters. And I can definitely see all of these happening. Peter's pre-No Way Home so hearing about another him and the absolute wild place that is the Avengers and the rest of the MCU is gonna blow his mind.
