WILL YOU HELP SAVE THE WORLD?

Mask or Menace is a panfandom urban 'superhero' genre DWRP game, where heroes, villains, and everyone in between seek to survive and thrive in a world loosely parallel to our own.

[ Luke looks extremely hesitant when he appears on screen, focusing more down at his hands than at the communicator in front of him. He opens his mouth to start speaking once, twice, before blowing out a tired sigh and reluctantly looking up at the phone. ]

Pidge... informed me of what all I did, last month, in that other world.

[ He hesitated, clearly uncomfortable with everything he had heard. ]

At this point, I probably should be offering some wisdom. Something about how our choices matter and how it shaped us to who we really are, but...

[ He hesitated again, dropping his head into his hand and rubbing at his forehead. ]

...honestly, after all that, I'm not feeling it. I think taking a page out of Han's book is more appropriate right now.

[ He lifted his head again, looking a bit more resolute. ]

Party at our place. We only have a small stash, so you might want to bring your own alcohol. Darin, you're especially invited. So are Lucina and Guzma.

[ A voice in the background shouted, "Don't forget Allura!" just as Luke was about to shut off the video. ]

Oh, right; Miss Allura, you're invited as well.

[[ooc; Log for party is here!]]

hot_handed

All right assholes, shut up and listen up. It's been brought to my attention that we should be "askin' for information" or whatever so I'm only going to ask for your input once.

Best ways to get to the Porter and maybe blow it up.

Personally, I'm thinking about bringing as many weapons to Cape Crap and threatening them that way. But I'm open to suggestions that aren't completely fucking stupid. But if you're gonna whine about how it's a bad idea because last time someone did some shit a lot of people got hurt then don't waste your fucking time because that's why I'm asking for your shitty fucking input.

thecacophony

So, uh, I've been thinking about maybe taking on a few side jobs. After being here for a certain amount of time, it seems kind of natural to think about the future, right? At least from what I've seen so far.

Anyway aside from the nice, peaceful job they gave me, I'm not real sure how to apply the rest of my skill set. Mercenary work, bodyguard business — hell, I've been a bounty hunter too, but I don't know how well any of that pays here. What I'm trying to say is: if anyone's looking for a sword-for-hire, let me know will you?

[ Wait. It pays to be polite, doesn't it? ]

Thanks.

justbeingknife

Hey, uh... what happens if ya lose that fancy little dossier they hand ya when you wake up here? There a way to get an extra copy?

I tried callin' a help line, but to make a long story short, it wasn't too helpful. And if I have to keep wearing this fursuit, I'm gonna flip out.

notmyplacetosay

Do people around here give names to things? Makes them alive, when you do. That's why you can't name a boat after someone who's still with us. Void doesn't appreciate the confusion.

But this isn't just about boats, though I'm gonna have my own soon enough. Heard of people naming their plants, their carriages, all kinds of things that feel a little bit alive.

forcechanic

Okay. This is the weirdest kidnapping ever. I know they said they want us to help, but everyone always to use my abilities so...

[She probably shouldn't be able to say that quite so calmly, but here she is. Talking about getting kidnapped like it's just missing the shuttle or something.]

Have to admit it's a lot of new territory though. This is the first time I've ever been kidnapped and had quite this much space to move around. Or my lightsaber. Or this much tech, even if I'm noticing a distinct spaceship shortage...

So hi fellow kidnappees I guess. I'm Jaina Solo and I've heard enough to know that for once that name doesn't have anything to do with the situation.

reydacted

[ Rey is still messing with the camera, leaning into it when it cuts in. There’s some shuffling and noise while she gets everything mounted before sits back and gives the camera a grin with a wave. ]

Hi there. I’m Rey, I’ve just recently arrived. It’s a little mad that there’s so many heroes here. Where I come from, there are definitely folks wanting to fight for what is right but having something like powers is... rare. Maybe I should retire and pick up a hobby instead.

[ She glances away from the camera, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear and trying not to reveal a heavier truth hiding beneath what should have been a light comment, given what she’s seen her power is capable of. Her grin is a little less enthusiastic, a little more guarded when she looks back at the camera, trying to force herself to move past it. ]

Anyway-- Looks like I'll be working at the Reclamation Yard, so if you're looking to offload or buy any scrap I guess I'm the girl you'll need to talk to.

hatejakku

[ So, after a lot of deliberation and (mostly) panic, Finn decided to just post something network-wide. He already knows that Bean is gone and doesn't want to discover any more surprises on his own. The thought of just going back to Base One and pretend nothing happened was nice but haha he might or might not be hiding at Cecelia's place. ~~If she hadn't kicked him out yet.~~

The video is just him looking all sad and confused and, wow, so awkward. But he takes a breath... and another- ]

Okay, so... I left again, I think. I don't remember anything about being home but I got a new job and new power and Cecelia said I've been gone for weeks so... yeah. Bean's name isn't on the-...

Is everyone all right? Did anything happen? I'll be home soon. I just- I don't really- [ Gotta take another breath to rub at the bridge of his nose. ]

Anyway. Hi, I'm Finn, for anyone I don't know. My new power is the Force. Like telepathy, sort of. I don't want it ending up like how my empath power was, so I'll take some advice from anyone who has it.

Okay, um...

[ He doesn't know what else to say, doesn't want to call out to some people in particular just in case something happened. Maybe they aren't there anymore or something. He's being a damn coward right now... Anyway, the message ends. ]

articulations

Much has changed over the years, as some of you have seen for yourselves. Many have come and gone. Many have returned remembering this world, while others have returned remembering and knowing nothing.

Next month will mark the third year in which I have taken up residence here. I wouldn't call myself stuck, not particularly, though I know there might be some who would disagree.

So then here is a question for everyone: how long have you been residing here? What have you done or accomplished during your stay? What will you do next?

For me, I believe it is time to obtain some form of official license with piloting. Among other things.

cantgetanyworse

[She's been drawing - there's a smudge of sky blue pastel on her cheek - but she looks troubled. That same blue is on her fingers as she lifts a hand to brush her hair off her face, hesitating before she speaks and looking away from the screen with her lower lip drawn in between her teeth.]

Does anyone feel as if they... lost something, coming here? I don't mean-- I don't mean that powers you had before were replaced, or anything like that, but... maybe you had a sense of purpose before that seems missing now.

[Jane feels silly. She huffs out a breath and her eyes go everywhere except for at the screen.]

I had it before, exploring the Congo with my father and helping him with his work... Even in that other place-- oh, it feels like a dream, now... I knew exactly what I was needed for.

[She looks down, shaking her head.]

I don't know. I think it would just help a little to know it isn't just me? Maybe?

flightforfreedom

[ Hi MoMites, it's your resident Poe Dameron here, looking dashing as usual as he sits in his room, carefully painting the livery on a little x-wing model he's built himself.

He looks, well, bored. ]

Alright, everyone.

If someone can tell me a story about something that happened to them that is weirder than anything I've ever lived through, I will buy them a whole evening's worth of drinks. Or food. Or whatever is your fancy.

Don't even bother coming to me with the tame stuff. Trust me. I have seen some things.

[ He leans forward to disconnect the video, then pauses. ]

Oh yeah. Guess my three year Earthversary is in a month, but I'm fucking off to go watch Top Gun 2 when it comes out instead of throwing a party, sorry guys.

[ The feed ends. ]

bifroster

What are your opinions on secrets?

What about knowledge of others you have due to the world/universe/dimension you are from?

[OOC: Jane's replies will be all anon, so feel free to have your responses as anon as well! Or not, your preference!]

mysterioisthetruth

If I could have everybody's attention...

There are many heroes here and ... those of a more dubious nature. I would ask all of you to fill out the following very important poll.

( ImPort Powers Research Poll )

Your participation in this research is appreciated. Any outlier comments or questions can now be left and I will respond, if necessary.

[ooc: CW for death, medical, injury, the worst day in a stormtrooper's short life]

( It's all a dirty, confusing mess... )

resoluteandunyielding

[ When the camera turns on, there is a young, prepossessed woman of middling twenties, sitting in simple, but stately robes and her hair done in ornate loops and curls. It's taken her some time to think about how she wanted to approach this, especially after Anakin threw himself into this new network last night. Before. ]

Good morning,

My name is Padmé Amidala, and I am newly arrived here. I have been informed that I've come here before, both earlier and later in my life, as well as that I held office for a long tenure as representative for one of your cities. I do not remember the days I've spent here, and I apologize for the complications and any hurt that may arrive with that.

[ She's still very much on the fence about how much she wants to find. Torn between her ingrained training to prepare herself with as much information as possible, in case of any situation she might find herself in, and that of whether she should know all that might still be coming for her future if these other persons were indeed some version of herself she would still grow into.

The weight of a known or unknown future. Whether that changes it.
The freedom to still experience her to-come tribulations and triumphs first hand. ]

I do welcome contact from anyone who knew me in times before. I understand that it will take time and will require much delicacy, but I would very much like to hear from you if you are willing. I would also love to learn as much as I can about the governance of this new world that it sounds as I was very passionate about.

[ Again, and always. Drawn to that stage. To the representation and protection of others.

But now to somewhere that wasn't Naboo, or for Naboo, that wasn't remembered, but somewhere, somewhen, she'd forged a deep enough connection to this place, that she rose to challenge of serving these people of as her own, too, even if she couldn't remember those circumstances that lead her to such feelings.]

kraythero

[ The viewpoint spins very slowly and smoothly, not showing a face but a tree, the bark, a branch, a nest. Occasionally tiny fuzzy grey heads stick out over the nest, and their squawking can be heard. The nestlings are grey and white, with pin feathers and a couple have a crest. Someone is studying a nest of blue jays. ]

I’m pretty sure there is a parent around, but only pretty sure. I don’t really know what they are either. Some kind of bird but? Are they going to be alright? They keep yelling.

[ Help a new import out? ]

Which isn’t what I was thinking about saying, but they caught my attention. Anyway, I’ve been filled in, including being told I was here before, even if I don’t remember.

[ With that Anakin pulls the device closer to him, turning it to record him. He’s young, the scar over his face fresh and his hair is very short – he’s only recently knighted and had his braid cut, and his hair is still very short from the more traditional haircut. And his smile is not quite confident, even shy. ]

My name’s Anakin Skywalker, I’ve been here a couple days now. And um, so you need a ‘driver’s license’ I’ve been told. How many of you have gotten one, how did you do it? I’ve been a pilot all my life, these cars have to be easier than a ship. Even a speeder.

flightforfreedom

[ He's thankful that one of the things BB-8 gave him before he was taken away again was an encrypted anonymous lock on his comm. It's not even that this is something he particularly wants to be anonymous for so much as it just... makes things a little easier to talk about. ]

this month, two of my best friends here had their one year wedding anniversary
living with their adopted son
a family that only could have existed on this planet

sometimes it's hard to see the little victories for what they are
more important than anything else

so tell me what keeps you going here

what are the things that this place gives you that you never would have gotten a chance for at home

the people that keep you getting up in the morning

we're all in this together and sometimes it takes a lot to remember that

dauntless_son

I need to know about Kylo Ren.

made_up_names

[ This video post is filmed somewhere up on a warehouse somewhere in De Chima, if you happen to recognize the skyline behind him. But that's not the focus of the video. Nope, you're probably more interested in this guy in a bright red-and-black (or is it dark blue?) suit perched comfortably on a roof top. If you know Peter ... this might be completely obvious. But he's at least tried to pitch his voice lower and generally pretend like he's definitely an adult who has no idea who Peter Parker is. ]

Spoiler alert, this is gonna be a little weird. I'm Spider-Man! But I'm apparently not the first Spider-Man who came here, and definitely not the only Spider-Man in existence. I've already met, like, ten strangers who know who I am, and not in the "hey you're the spider guy from Youtube" way.

So - if you know who I am, I would seriously like to hear about it. Even if you hate me! Especially if you hate me. Because odds are we can totally work it out this time.

[ A pause. ]

And for everyone else, nice to meet you? Uh, as nice as it is meeting anyone during an apparent zombie apocalypse.

[ There's a soft, growly sort groan from behind him and below him. And a couple undead hands flail into frame, trying (and failing) to climb up to his level. ]

Speaking of which. Guess I better get back to work.

ralltiir

[ Akobi starts the video seated at his desk. Not the desk in his office at Helix Station; he doesn't want to make personal requests on Aegis time. The desk in his home office. The hour is somewhat late-- after dinner but before most people would turn in for their night's sleep. From the looks of him, Akobi hasn't been doing much sleeping lately. ]

Good evening, ImPorts. I come to you today with a request. I recently ported... [ He pauses. He didn't port back home. He has nothing left to port home to. ] ...out, for a period of about a week, and upon my return, I found myself with a new ability. This isn't the first time this has happened to me, but I confess, the ability I find myself saddled with now is more than just a mere annoyance.

That is what I come to you seeking. Aid, in learning to control my new ability. Meditation has been recommended to me as one possible avenue to explore, but I have no experience with such a practice, and would not know where to begin on my own. The ability in question involves a certain amount of... extra-ordinary senses of the world around you, and the ability to manipulate one's environment through control of that sense. In the galaxy I come from, it is known as "The Force."

[ Never have two simple words been uttered with such disdain. ]

Normally, I would not trust anyone claiming to be skilled with such things, as Force users in my galaxy have a long history of being manipulative and deceitful. [ Or so the Empire has led him to believe. ] However, now that I find myself with the potential for such a skill... [ He sighs. ] I must learn to control it, lest I accidentally let it control me.

I would compensate anyone offering training fairly and promptly. Money is no object. Should you wish to discuss matters privately, I can be reached at this number.

Thank you.

[ As he concludes his broadcast, he reaches across the desk for the camera, to turn off the recording, but accidentally Force pushes his comm unit away, where it clatters to the floor. A brief, unfamiliar curse word is heard before the feed goes black. ]
