We Four Freaks: Casting for Winthrop Academy

So, my four players have finally made their characters. Ryon, Lisa, Nick, and James have all made their PCs for my DC Heroes game, and things are looking amusing. Lisa and James are both going with the motivation of Unwanted Power. Lisa with her air controlling bird winged mutant (who's also vulnerable to powers that would affect birds), and James with his "son-of-a-superhero" character (nanite powered and wire controlling...who unfortunatly has no built in "surge protector"). Ryon and Nick are both going with Thrill of Adventure for their motivation. Ryon is playing a chameleon-type character with a reptilian mutation (and the same major weakness as Lisa), and Nick is portraying a mystical illusionist with a rather ill-defined power source.

The game will start the Friday after next (as next Friday is my birthday), and probably run two fridays a month.

We may also be getting a fifth player, though Paul's still got to look at his schedule and character/power concept.

I've also begun reading Jack Kirby, mainly in the form of his Fourth World books (The New Gods, Mister Miracle, and The Forever People). May God help them all.
