Villain Name: Dogman
Gimmick: A Man with the powers of a dog.
Real Name: Simon Hound
Short Description/Bio: Simon used to work in an animal testing lab, until he was bitten by a dog undergoing some kind of top secret tests. Now he is Dogman, with abilities including but not limited to improved hearing, awesome sense of smell, black and white vision, the need to pee on things and an odd attraction to butts.
Hmm, I did say no powers at the start, but on the other hand, this is hilariously lame enough that I might allow it.

So, how will you be deciding on which players to pick?
Depends on how many apply, but I'll lean towards those I think will last longest or supply most potential for Fun.

I'm curious, which version of batman is this?
An ambiguous one, with whatever traits from all versions necessary for this game. Tends heavily away from Camp, though. Sticks to the no-kill rule. At first, your character won't be on his radar, barring massively terrible luck.

More than happy to start as mild mannered Simon Hound humbly working in a lab for the first few turns leading up to the inevitable bite and conversion into DOGMAN!!!

Would my 'evolving over time' powers be allowed?

Frank Miller's versions would probably be funniest.

Anywho, sheet!

Villain Name: Schoolgirl
Gimmick: well, being a schoolgirl. She's not very creative.
Real Name (optional): Leah Liberty Lansbury
Short Description/Bio: 16 years old and full of hormones and violent impulses, Schoolgirl decided to start her own street gang, similarly composed of other schoolgirls. She even made herself a black bowler hat (because she vaguely remembers the opening scene of A Clockwork Orange and thought it looked kind of cool) and domino mask to go with her Catholic school uniform, so she's feeling really optimistic about this now.

Villain Name: Ze Frenchman
Gimmick: Being dangerously French
Real Name (optional): Pierre Lefou
Short Description/Bio: Sporting ze magnificent moustache, it is Ze frenchman's mission to liberate all the cheese and the wine from the miscriants of Gotham. These people would not know good cheese if it were to hit them in the face, a statement he is dying to test out some day. Looking like a stereotypical frenchmen and using all sorts of cheese and baguette themed items, he will bring Gotham to it's knees and shape it into something beautiful. He will shape it into Nouveau Paris!

In reality, Pierre is merely a french immigrant who has become disillusioned with the way life is in Gotham.

((And you can't say that using such steroetypes is offensive to French people. Cause I'm not offended. ))

You'd have to go the Copperhead route, starting out with something exceptionally lame and getting something cooler later. Modify it so that your starting point and initial methods are something cheesier. Occult stuff can always happen later.

Looks like. I've got some chores to do, so it may take a bit for the verdict. Might allow more depending on contents of character sheets.

So I can't have very slight fire resistance, improved memory, increased greed, and decreased morality?

Frank Miller's versions would probably be funniest.

Simultaneously the funniest, and most terrifying.
Snatch a purse from some random woman prostitute and he'll probably put ya in traction.

Decreased morality maybe, but powers are something you'd have to acquire later. You'll have to start out as a rather low-end crook, probably with a dragon-themed schtick, then run into the ritual later.

The Batman in this game will indeed most likely beat you to a pulp.

Could I start just before he enters the area the ritual is occuring?
