|MCU/AoS| Hail Heroes Discussion

This RP is based off of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. television series. For the most part, it will follow the show's premise from a different point of view, starting at the beginning of Season 1. As such, everything from the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be considered canon. However, elements from other Marvel films outside of the MCU continuity that are prominent in comic books (X-Men/mutants, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, etc.) will have a role to play. The RP will follow a loose continuity from the actual MCU films to allow us creative freedom and will reconcile the Avengers with Spider-Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and other non-MCU properties allowing for a greater Marvel RP. The feel of the RP will be strictly tied to the MCU's Avengers films, though.

Rules

1. No powerplaying or godmodding. KHV's rules are law.
2. No prior knowledge of actual comic books are needed, but some knowledge of the MCU movies will help.
3. Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show is the backdrop of the RP so you should at least be familiar with the series.
4. Your character(s) can be OC or an MCU version of an existing comic book character, provided that they haven't appeared in the films yet.
5. Actual big-name superheroes such as Spider-Man cannot be altered for the RP.
6. Actual superheroes cannot be playable just yet; as in, your character cannot be a vigilante or have an alias.
7. Actual heroes/villains from the MCU aren't allowed just yet.
8. The RP will start off almost identical to the show with similar plot-points. The events will take place from the point of view of a similar team to Coulson's, but the teams will not cross paths right away. As such, until told, no one should know about the events of the show or Coulson being alive.
9. Mutants (and anything X-Men related), as opposed to the movies, aren't extremely well-known, but have been revealed to exist in the 1970s. Public appearances, however, are extremely rare due to S.H.I.E.L.D. and other organizations being swift.
   
10. Characters aren't allowed to have powers or be anything aside from human. However, you can be a non-X-Men mutant, but keep it a secret for now! (privately tell me if that's your plan).
11. Characters don't have to be S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but must be related to S.H.I.E.L.D. in some way in order to be part of the team. No characters over Level 6 security clearance (at the beginning).
12. S.H.I.E.L.D. agents must have a specialty between Operations (specialists; one-man teams that excel in combat and the field), Sci-Tech (sciences such as biology or engineering), or Communications (data management). They can be actual agents or recruited straight from the respective academy.
13. If you want your character(s) to Hail *****, keep it a secret for now (even from me). Like the actual series, the reveal should be a complete surprise.
    
14. If you want a "bad guy of the week," let me know! If you want a recurring bad guy, show your interest for now; Recurring bad guys won't be introduced until after the first mission.
15. If it's not obvious, no actual characters from the show or films though they can be referenced as of yet. If you would like to portray a character for a guest appearance, there will be room for that later! For now, everyone is an OC or an MCU-styled version of an existing comic book character that has yet to make an appearance in the films/show.

  Real Name: Agent Eric O'Grady
  Age/Appearance: 45
  Specialty/Level: Operations/Communications, Level 8
  Personality/Bio: O'Grady is a low-level S.H.I.E.L.D. agent that was accepted into the Academy of Operations young. However, his selfish attitude led to him almost failing out and he ended up graduating from from the Communications Academy instead. Though there isn't much special about him, he worked his way up to Clearance Level 8 (though that says more about his time in S.H.I.E.L.D. than his actual capabilities). After the Battle of New York, he was tasked with a special mission deemed easy enough, but after screwing up, was given the job of doing low-priority recon for Director Fury's second-in-command, Maria Hill. He's considered the lowest agent in Level 8 and is constantly looking for a chance to prove himself.
  O'Grady is a shady man, often attempting to use his resources at S.H.I.E.L.D. to better his own life instead of humanity. He is good at his job, but his selfish personality leads to rash decisions which, in turn, end in mistakes. He is a womanizer who excels at lying. He is often put in positions to better his character and sometimes actually makes the right decisions...sometimes.

  Real Name: Vance Astrovik
  Age/Appearance: 23
  Specialty/Level: Communications, Level 5
  Personality/Bio: Agent Astrovik doesn't talk about his past much, due to abuse he suffered by his late father. All he's revealed is that he spent some time in jail before being recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. under a special "probationary program." Vance has a strong sense of morality and hero worship, considering Captain America an example to strive towards. He has a gift for retaining knowledge and is a very capable research.
  Other:
  
  Username: Boy Wonder
  Real Name: Kyle Ian Adams
  Age/Appearance: 26
  Specialty/Level: Operations, Level 6
  Personality/Bio: Agent Adams is considered a physical specimen. After passing all of his examinations with flying colors, he was one of the Academy of Operations' best students in recent years. He is a combat specialist, able to take out groups of armed combatants single-handedly, which earned him the nickname "Captain America, Jr." Since graduating, he has taken many of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s cases where it's risky to send more than one agent.
  He is very by-the-book, but has notable emotional issues. While he's usually very well-composed, when he loses it, he loses it.

Welcome to Level 7.

 

So, we can be character from the comics but there powers aren't available yet? I just wanna make sure before I post.

 

That's the general rule. I can tie in a story giving someone powers later on. If you want them to have their powers as a secret or something, that can be allowable (but not guaranteeing it). I just need to talk to you about who the character is and how we can work it out.
