Setting Info

[Charlie Brown]

note that this SL does not have a storyteller and there is no predetermined, central story. it is purely driven by the players. That being the case, posting logs is very important . I won't nag people to post logs, but it is very helpful. Especially for those with odd schedules.

There are no character applications. I don't want to read them and you won't want to write them. If you want to participate, just let me know and I can help you figure something out. THIS IS A CANON ONLY STORYLINE.

You don't need to know every minute detail of a canon's background to play it. Even if you have next to no experience, so long as you are interested, there are many resources that will help get a feel for that character (comicvine.com is your best friend). I do NOT expect canons to mimic every aspect of the canon, people should feel free to take liberties with their backstory/origin, etc... Make the characters your own.




- The JLA has not yet been formed.

- Green Lantern Corps is established on Earth. There has been a Green Lantern present on Earth since 1932, Alan Scott taking up the first ring.

- Superman has been known publicly for three years, Batman as a nation-wide hero for one. He's been in Gotham for around five.

- The Flash mantle has been around since 1965. Originated under Jay Garrick who, through his metahuman gene, aged much slower. He passed the mantle on to Barry Allen in 2009 at the age of 88. He continues to operate around Keystone City from time to time, but largely takes it easy. Extended use of his power strains his aging body too much.

- Wild Cat has been an established hero since 1966, since his retirement he has gone on to train and school many other aspiring heroes. Before donning the mask, and up until 1967, he'd been the World Heavy Weight boxing champion. Ted took a dive in late 1967 to Muhammad Ali, giving him the title and allowing Ted more time to focus on crime fighting.

Welcome to DC: New Age, the dawn of a new era. The golden age of heroes are slowly fading back into regular lives while new men and women with mysterious and sometimes strange powers are standing up across the globe to meet the needs of the Earth as it contends with forces that would see harm come to the innocents. Superman is a fledgling hero of three years, Batman for even less. The Justice League is a distant pipe dream and the Amazons remain sequestered on their secret island of Themyscira. In the cosmos above the Green Lantern Corps police the vastness of space including it's newest sector, 2814, the milky way galaxy. Hal Jordan is not the first lantern to bear the ring and the world has grown accustomed to the extraterrestrial presence of the corps, whom have saved the world numerous times with the help of other notable heroes, Wild Cat and (former) The Flash, Jay Garrick.

LexCorp is still a growing business with newly appointed head CEO, Lex Luthor, having taken the reigns after the untimely demise of his father. It is quickly becoming a powerful force in the business world and unbeknownst to most; a power in other, more underhanded realms as well. Moreover, Lex Luthor himself is looking to begin another profession, one in politics.

Rumors of a strange cult have been echoed across every state and every major nation in the world. Their rites and practices remain all but a secret, their presence a mere whisper among the cacophony of the urban jungle.

Kidnappings have become a prevalent occurrence in these areas, the police are helpless to stop them, not even the greatest detectives in the American police force have been able to find any sign of their head quarters nor been able to identify the members of this cult. The only sign of their hint of their existence are the hastily scrawled word on the walls of the homes of those they kidnap. Trigon.

It is up to this new generation of heroes to confront the evil threatening their cities, their states, nations, the Earth itself.
