Two-three sounds good to me. So it'd be about 6-9 kids? That'd be a pretty good number to work with.

14-17 works for me.

For how many sceintists in a group, maybe it could be like 2-5?

I definitely agree that we should write out his personality, history (if we want to use one) name, and so on here so we don't get confused at all.

I also love the idea of having them all be from the same place but not really knowing each other.

Okay, does anyone have any good ideas for the head scientist? Like a name? Haha. I think we pretty much decided on part of his personality being munipulative and ambitious. As for history, maybe his research on young babies still in the womb and their brain functions or whatever were looked down upon and he's looking to prove to everyone who laughed and frowned at him that he could do this. Thats really cliche, so if either of you has something better, please, share!

With characters, we can each of two kids with power and then some normal kids at the school. They will probably play just as big a role in this story as the super kids themselves. Perhaps three normal kids for each of us. Having more normal kids will help the super kids stand out, ya know what I mean?

As for the age, sixteen sounds good to me!

Also, the group of scientists could be two or three if that sounds good.

Names...uh, in one of the fanfictions I'm writing, the evil scientist's name is Dr. Anthony Lawrence. I don't know if you would want to use that or not...I can be pretty bad when it comes to thinking of names. I tend to use the same ones a lot, lol.

Should we develop the personality more though? Manipulative and ambitious are two key traits that mainly define him, but should we go more in depth? We could also just let his personality develop as the roleplay goes on, it really depends on what you guys want to do.

History...I can be bad at these too. Maybe someone he knew worked in the lab or something, and died in a freak accident. He was pretty torn up about it, so he made it his goal to undermine any of the lab's plans. One of the ways he decides to do this is corrupting the group of heroes, and putting them to his own use. He doesn't let anyone know about this of course, keeping all of that to himself.
...I don't know. That's cliche too, and I don't think it's better.

Wait, so we would have two heroes, and three normal humans? That's five characters..I've honestly been pretty busy lately, and school is coming up really soon again. I'm not sure I can handle that many, and still be able to write well enough. Or is it one normal character for each of us, making three in total? That, I could probably do. Sorry...

Sixteen it is, then. ^^

Two to three sounds fine to me.

That names sounds perfectly good to me! Honestly, I have the same problem with names and just use the same ones over and over again in different combinations. And the history is better than mine haha. I actually really like it.

I agree we should develop his personality more, though I'm kind of out of good ideas right now.

And thats fine, Dancer. One normal and two heroes is just fine. I always tend to join as more characters because I like having a lot of different personalities to work with, but I completely understand you only wanting three characters. That just gives me the excuse to create more, haha. Also, we don't have to join as all of the normal characters at first. We can kind of create them as needed for the most emotional and dramatic scenes we can create.

Awesome! All we need is WolfCall's opinion now. ^^

I am too. ...Megalomania is always fun to add into a character's personality. It's like ambition, but even better, lol. He could also be reluctant to start any close relationships with anyone, because he lost someone close to him, making him closed off, a bit mysterious, and having almost no regrets about hurting others. ...If we decide to use that history, anyway.

Alright, that'll work! I may add a few normal characters just for select scenes, but unless they show up more, I don't think I'll need a biography for them.

I love that name! I'm the same way lol. I use my favorite three names quite a bit (Darrell, Johnny, and Jaimie) because I have a lot of trouble just coming up with a new one on the spot.

I like that history and think we could do a lot with it! I agree that Megalomania is definitely a great quality for him. I also think that he should be really smart, bordering on a genius. Maybe he could even have a photographic memory?

Sweet! So we can just add how many humans we want to right?

That personality is fantastic! I really can't think of anything to add to it.

And, to WolfCall, yes! Haha, as many human characters as you want.

I am pretty much done with the topic except for my characters. I may post it anyway and add my characters as I get them done just so you guys have a place to post your characters if and when you are done with them. I think at first I will only add my two heroes and one normal character who I am really inspired with. I won't tell you anything about him just yet....

Anyways, I'll post the link here in less than an hour!

That took like two seconds to finish up, haha. Anyways, I really want to try something new and hopefully cool with the first page, so if you could make sure your characters have picture, that would be awesome. WolfCall, you usually use actors, so could you let me know which ones. I don't always recognise them, as we've already discovered haha. Windancer, I know you usually use descriptions, which is fine, but would it be okay if I try to find a picture that matches your description? I know this seems stupid right now, but I promise it's gonna be epic if I can get this done right.

Sweet! I can't wait to see what you're going to do with it! I'll definitely let you know who I use! I'll post my characters as soon as I finish them! I'll put the actors' names in parentheses beside the link.

Sure! I'm really excited for this thing; I'm working on my characters now; they should be posted soon.

I posted my characters. ^^

Finally got them up. Sorry that took so long!

Just to let you guys know, it may take me a little longer than planned to get my characters posted. Just got to college a few days ago and am still learning how to manage my time. Also, I am having some major difficulty doing the cool thing I want to do. I'm determined now to it, though, and will not let my lack of tech knowledge to get the better of me!!!

You can do it! Take your time. No rush!

I understand being busy; I don't mind waiting.

And I also understand a lack of tech knowlege; I have no skill in that area whatseoever. I'm sure whatever you do will be wonderful though. ^^
