Ok, so I have this alt and I made my own special SG for him, I'm considering opening it up to the public here, gauging interest and such.
This is on the Virtue server.
Basically I can sum this alt/group up as a simple homage to the Galaxy Rangers. I have 4 of the DVDs, I loved this show when I was a kid, but, as I said, this is an homage, not a xerox copy.
Instead of being a space lawman, my alt is simply a Rhode Island Sheriff.
The group is the Rhode Island Sheriff Corps (R.I.S.C.)
Basically I was thinking of having there be badge requirements to get a Sheriff's badge, and possibly costume requirements, as follows:
Costume prereqs:
1. No masks, Sheriffs are public servants not costumed vigilantes.
2. Must have a badge-esque symbol somewhere on one of your costumes, I use the gear emblem with the big gear blending into my chest color and the little gear in gold, the segmented belt with a gold buckle would also work, or a jacket with the star 6 emblem on it, stuff like that.
Badge prereqs:
1. Just said no to Superdine - a good cop keeps his nose clean.
History badge using plaques found in Steel, Skyway, Faultline, Boomtown.
2. Negotiator - knowing when to shoot and when not to is important.
Accomplishment badge, mission is clockwork in a skulls warehouse(levels 5-10 tech)
3. Volunteer Firefighter - public service is crucial
Help battle a fire in Steel Canyon, I got this in like 2 minutes by fighting the Hellions at the scene.
4. Blue Shield - Exploration, Galaxy City badge, 80yds E of Orion Beltway dot behind "They Are Among Us" billboard
These badges are relatively easy to acquire, and can be had by level 15, I'm thinking folks could come on as deputies(members) until they get all these badges and then they can be promoted through the ranks.
I don't think I'll require a specific origin or archetypes, just that they were some sort of law enforcement person somewhere, another state, another country, planet, whatever. So Martian Manhunter concepts, Green Lantern corps concepts are fine, just so long as they aren't blatant copies. And no l337 spellings.
The bottom line, folks may ask, 'what is in it for me?'. First is the concept, do you remember the rangers? Do you like law enforcement? Did you have a Marshal/Sheriff/Mountie concept you wanted to try out?
Also there's strategies and tactics and such. I've been accumulating temp power info like is on cohonline and am considering putting up a site that has that, I could incorporate that info to a home page for this place, I can't do fancy flash animation and stuff, but meh.
If play times are a consideration, I am in the Eastern Time Zone (GMT -5 hours), and usually play after 8pm to about 10pm, my time, Mon-Wed, and sparatically throughout the weekend.
