IC Information
Nearly a century ago, on an eerily calm night, the world slept as a mysterious purple and green object sped accross the sky. Most astronomers ignored it, as it appeared at first to be nothing but another typical comet. However this was no ordinary clump of space debris. The strange energy within it was a very rare form of radiation found only in the most shrouded and hidden depths of the galaxy. It would soon prove to cause a lot of trouble for the innocent peoples of the Earth.
Finally the comet sped into the Earth's atmosphere and broke into small pieces, each one landing in different areas on the Earth. But the largest chunk of all fell straight into the Pacific Ocean, then sank to the deepest depths of which mankind had yet to explore. There it lay, waiting, glowing, biding its time...
Many decades later, through various accidental discoveries of the broken shards of the meteorite, a select few humans discovered that they had been transformed. The bizarre radiation had incredible and unique affects on each one, giving them special powers and abilities. Some used these new abilities to protect mankind and serve as guardians of truth and justice, while others were driven by greed or madness to take the world for their own, and kill anyone who stood in their way.
Eventually the two forces found themselves at war with one another. However as if it was not chaotic enough, still another side arose. Some normal humans decided to take matters into their own hands to enter the game with advanced technology.
And so, as time passes by, it gradually becomes...
The Age of Chaos!

OOC Information
Ok, this is not going to be a terribly strict RP, nor is it intended to be extremely in-depth. It's mainly just a typical superhero vs. supervillain comic book type theme. There will be more than one thread, each one with its own specific rules and type of roleplay, so pick whichever one(s) you like.
Here are the general rules that will apply to all of them:
1) Use double parentheses (( )) for any OOC talk, but keep it to a minimum.
2) At present there are no alternate languages that are planned for use in this RP, so alternate colored text is allowed. However, this may change later on, so it might not be the greatest idea.
3) Your character will be super, yes, but make sure, as always, they are not TOO powerful. And keep a general theme; don't mix a bunch of unrelated powers. Don't use more than two themes at once.
4) Make sure to fill out a character form and post it in this thread.
5) Do not post spam or random chit-chat here. You can make comments about the RP, but no random unrelated discussions are allowed in this thread.
There will be several threads for this RP, each one with its own form of RPing. One will allow both heros and villains and will have no major plot, so RPers are free to move thigns along themselves. Another one will only allow heros and I will be acting as a sort of "dunegon master" where I'll control the NPCs and major events that happen. There in fact may be a couple of these and I may allow others to make some eventually as well, and each one will probably only allow so many characters in it at once. Also, while all the RPs are intended to be rather light-hearted and at times humorous, the superheros should, for the most part, be at least somewhat serious. The one exception to this is the Supposedly Super thread, in which it is not only allowed, but highly encouraged that you have some sort of rediculous and highly comical character. IN this thread there will be zany antics and puns galore, if all goes well.
RP threads for this RP will be labeled with "TAC" somewhere in the name.
( Note: furries/anthros/animal characters are allowed as well, as with all my RPs. <^.^> )

Transportation
*Flying- Cannot be done for very long periods of time; character must rest from this after a certain ammount of tiem flying, as it drains energy. Can obtain large heights and fairly good speed. Can be with or without wings, but make sure to specify.
*Hovering- Sort of like flying, except not very high, and a good deal slower. Can be used most (even, in some cases, all) of the time, as it does not use much, if any, energy.
*Giant steps- For strong, hulking characters that naturally take enormous steps. Can be slow or fast, depending on the size of the character, but generally does damage wherever they walk.
*Slithering- Fast over smooth to medium-rough terrain, but slower on highly rough terrain. Can also be used for faster motion through water.
*Hyperspeed running- Extremely fast on all land terrain and enables limited walking on water. Causes friction burn to the ground and nearby objects, and makes the hero somewhat disoriented when used.
*Teleportation- Instant transfer from one spot to another. Drains a lot of energy, and cannot be used more than 4 times in under 5 minutes at most.
*Chronoshifting- Similar to teleportation, except that it is not instant. The character slowly fades from one place, then gradually fades into the target destination. It can be used more than teleportation and requires less energy, but it takes away time that can be critical in battles.
*Treads/wheels- Very fast on relatively smooth terrain, average on medium-rough terrain, and very slow and clumsy on very rough terrain. Non-aquatic.
*Centrefugal walking- Same as normal walking, except it can shift the center of gravity, enabling the character to walk on walls, ceilings, slopes, etc.
*Mechanical legs- Tends to be clumsy and not very good on very rough terrain, but is very strong and can be unstoppable on, say, the streets of a large city.
*Long jumping- Has the ability to jump extremely high and/or long distances. Takes some energy, but not a lot, particularly if they have super strength.
**More ideas may be submitted for consideration, and are encouraged so long as they are within reason!!**

Name: That Guy
Secret Identity (optional): None
Gender (...optional...?): Male
Appearance: He is muscular and tall, and has brown hair. His hair is very plain and probably about fifty years out of date in most style/fashion circles. He wears a blue, green, and white striped jumpsuit with a purple/dark-blue cape. He also occasionally wears unusually large, thick glasses, though nobody knows why, as he can usually see fine without them. He has a large jaw and tends to smile a lot. It is said his smile can kill children and small animals at a short distance. While this is slightly exagerated, it is advised to keep at a safe distance when taking his photograph, as his teeth shine abnormally brightly in the sunlight, and they are rumored to glow in the dark.
Personality: He always acts in command and in charge of the situatuin, even when he knows he's losing. His optimism is so strong and hard to defeat that it is said that he could cheer up Death himself.
Special Mode of transportation: Flying, long jumping.
Powers:
*Super strength
*Razor vision- projects a stream of energy from a few inches in front of his eyes that cut through the air and burn and scratch anything it crosses, like a stream of razors.
*Power sneeze- used from above, he lets out a "sneeze" that sends out a very large, explosive burst of energy and wind that blasts everything in its way.
*Swoosh!- he charges at his opponent, going at a supersonic speed for a very short distance (a couple yards at most), swinging his fists around wildly along the way.
General theme: Generic
Allegiance: Good
Miscellaneous Info: (none)
