Maelstrom's Foundational Characters

Foundational characters are leaders. They're iconic parts their respective comic titles and game canon. Typically they head a 'family' of sorts. Foundational characters tend to be mentors or role models. There is an OOC requirement for a Foundational character to work with new players to balance and integrate the canon during the application process. Foundational characters should also strive to create RP for other characters and assist in storytelling.

Players may refer generally to Foundational characters in their +sheets and background. There is no mandate that a Foundational character must RP with certain people, but it is strongly encouraged that they RP with their 'family' and immediate teammates or help develop related storylines.

Foundational Characters are also, in some cases, also ‘loadstones’ of the game and as such, certain things must remain in place as Staff has defined them. It is suggested that the +stnotes of any character on the list below be checked to make sure that what you wish to do is a possibility.

A cursory list (this will be added to as more come to mind) of Foundational Characters is:

  • Bruce Wayne (Batman)
  • Clark Kent (Superman)
  • Thor Odinson
  • Steve Rogers (Captain America)
  • Hal Jordan (Green Lantern)
  • Erik Lensherr (Magneto)
  • Peter Quill (Star Lord)
