Candy do you have any of the About, or Intro done? Also can I have your characters so I can put them in the posts?
Also, have you gotten the banner ordered at least? The time to do so is now. I mean I think we can go without a banner for a while, but I would like to figure it out now.

OOC Okay, hereβs the intro? Itβs kinda cheesy.
The Justice Leauge.
Guardians of this world, keepers of peace.
Heroes.
They were a beacon of hope to everyone, and believe me when I say that Earth needed them. With so many crazed super villains and a surprising amount of aliens attacks, the world needed the Justice Leauge, and we had them, for years. They became a stable in our world. They even had their own merchandise. The Justice Leauge became such an integrated part of our world, that we could hardly imagine what we did without them.
Then we didnβt have to imagine, because they were gone.
It happene in a fight, they were attacking a ship of alien invaders and then poof, in a burst of light, they were gone. Gone, without a trace, without a clue as to what happened to them. They were just...gone.
That, was two years ago, and now, the world is left without the Justice Leauge, without keepers of peace and guardians of Earth, the world is left without heroes. Perhaps we shouldnβt have gotten so used to our cozy, protected life with the Justice Leauge watching over us, maybe we should have been more alert. Because no hero will stand forever.
And when heroes fall, the world falls with it, and weβre left powerless.
Or are we?
Maybe itβs time for new heroes to step up, to be a new beacon of light and hope for the world. For when the old will fall, new heroes will rise.

Dorothy βDottyβ Tucker Dorothy βDottyβ Tucker is a rather typical looking girl. She has light honey blonde, shoulder length hair that is neither straight nor wavy, more like this mix of both and a slight twinge of a curl to it. Her hair is thick and bouncy, very fitting for the girl who wears it, actually. Now, her eyes arenβt anything exciting either, theyβre a cornflower blue, that are perhaps, a bit more bright than usual. Along with this, her skin is a fair, pale color, that freckles easier than it tans, which it has, as her face is lightly dusted in freckles from her nose and across her cheeks. She also has freckles on her shoulders and sides of her neck, but those arenβt quite as noticeable as the ones on her face. Dotty has a rather simple figure as well, a little scrawny, but not horribly skinny, with a heart shaped face, ears that stick out, and somewhat big feet for someone thatβs only 5β2. Along with this, she also needs glasses, and has a pair of simple, blue ones perched up on her nose, that really help her eye color stand out. Dotty isnβt exactly the most fashionable person out there, and can often be found wearing a button up shirt with a vest over it, jeans, and a pair of boots. Either that, or sheβll be in sweats and or some sort of Fandom related shirt. As far as personality goes, Dottyβs a pretty happy-go-lucky, extremely naive and innocent girl who likes to crack jokes, eat ice cream, and has made it her own personal mission to befriend every animal she meets, no matter what. Sheβs a bit introverted and would prefer to have fun playing board games or reading a book, than going out to sing Karaoke, but sheβs pretty flexible. Dotty is a bit of a stick in the mud with certain things though, and as she has always been an avid reader of comic books, loving the idea of superheroes despite their obvious cliches, she is the type to flat out mention when something seems a bit cheesy or cliche. She tends to point out flaws in a lot of different things, and is constantly questioning the female superheroβs outfit of choice. (That just canβt be practical to show that much skin, what if you get shot???) Dotty is also very smart, working as a robot engineer for another lab that her family has been apart of for years, called: GATES, which is mainly positioned in Keystone City. Dotty tends to mother anyone around her as well, and is constantly looking out for their well beings. Yet sheβs a little hypocritical with this, considering Dotty is terrible at taking care of herself, often going days without sleeping, and surviving mostly off of pop tarts. This is exactly the reason why she doesnβt have a pet...or a plant, because sheβs worried she would forget to take care of it. Dotty is also extremely stubborn and doesnβt back down, sheβs the type that has been pushed around her whole life and is done with it to the point she takes no crap from anyone anymore, and will tell it how it is...in hopefully the nicest way possible, because she doesnβt want to hurt anyoneβs feelings, of course. Sheβs a huge geek, enjoying almost anything typically nerdy that you can think of, and although it does take her a little while to open up to others, once she does, sheβs an open book, with a nearly always happy personality and enough bad jokes to last a lifetime. Dotty has a rather tame history...surprisingly tame, most superheroes are supposed to have a tragic backstory right? Well, this one doesnβt. She grew up in the farmlands of Keystone City with her parents happily married, and family mostly happy. She still has both sets of grandparents alive as well. Like seriously, this girl has had a disturbing lack of tragedy in her life. She got pushed around a bit in school, but that wasnβt anything scarring, more like, typical kid struggles. She even got a job fairly easy, as her uncle was the head scientist at GATES Labratory and was more than happy to take her on. Sheβs lived a happy life, things have just been easy for her, almost too easy, maybe she should be a bit more on edge. The only really bad thing to happen to her, was when an explosion happened at her work. During that time, she and her twin sister Danny, were working in GATES Lab, the explosion shook the other lab to its core, and the two Tucker twins were knocked unconscious for four days. But even that didnβt end up being the worst possible thing, at least not for Dotty. See, that very explosion had take a few months to truly affect her, but once it had, she discovered something amazing, well, basically, she found out that she had superpowers, and even though Danny had left once she had awoken, off to find employment somewhere else, Dotty had been more than happy to stay in the Keystone and Central area as she discovered more and more about her powers. It started out as just fun and games for her, as she practiced her abilities and created new things, but after accidentally stopping a few muggers in her first version of her suit. (All of which was caught on camera.) Word got around of this hero from Keystone. So, Dotty rolled with it, believing it would be fun. Besides, she could handle a few muggers, she even got to dub her own superhero name, after stopping a robbery, and being asked by a reporter who she was, Dotty(in costume, of course) looked right at the camera and introduced herself as βGadgetβ and since then, the name has stuck.
Speaking of which, letβs get to that next. Dottyβs powers, summed down and simplified to the basics, are that of a Technopath. Which means she can create and control technology with ease. But thatβs hardly brushing the surface of it. Dottyβs powers include being able to take limited metals and parts and creating almost anything imaginable out of it, multiplying and duplicating the parts until she has enough. She can hack into any computer system and is immune to technology based brainwashing or mind reading. She uses her power to create many different things, some of which include handy gadgets to help her get out of situations, a surfboard type thing that helps her fly through the air. (Think: Silver Surfer), robotic armor for her suit that makes it looks like nothing, but keeping her protected(among other things) and robot companions to help with fighting crime, housework, and making sure Dotty takes care of herself. Now, while this all sounds great, it does come with a cost. Dotty hasnβt quite gotten a hold of her powers yet and if she isnβt focused, or if sheβs weak, her inventions will crumble before her very eyes, her technology is not unhackable, and can be used against her, and she has to have some sort of base metal and parts for her to be able to create anything. The bigger or more advanced the things she creates are, the more energy it zaps from her, and leaves her more vulnerable to attack. Now, while weβve covered about everything with her, there is a bit left. Such as her suit. It started out as some really simple blue clothes that she bought from the nearest Walmart, however as she got out there more, she wanted to improve on it, and so now she has a thinly armored blue shirt thatβs both zipped and buttoned up, with a darker blue(tinted gray) armor to cover her arms, shoulder, and neck. She has similarly armored pants, a gray pelt with a bunch of different pockets, and gray, knee high boots that are trimmed blue. She also has a few more pockets hidden all over her outfit, gray, elbow length gloves, and a blue and gray mask like goggles(she still needs to see somehow) that covers her eyes, and forehead. She usually uses a type of surfboard she invented to fly around(Though to be fair, sheβs still getting used to it and has crashed in multiple trees due to her natural clumsiness.), and she also has a little, floating, round robot thatβs covered in spots that was both the first thing she made (on accident as well) and her constant companion, which she has named Spots, because Dotty is quite possibly, not the best at naming things. ||  Casper is her cousin. || Hero || Gadget || πβππ π£π[/font] Casper Tucker Casper is around average height, standing at 5β10, nothing too impressive, but he isnβt short either. He has a sturdy, lanky builde, lightly tanned skin thatβs covered in freckles, cornflower blue eyes, and dirt blond hair thats quite messy, and probably styled that way too. He has a very farm boy air to him, even if he lives in a simple apartment in Central city instead of at the farm like he used to. Casper dresses a bit more fashionably than his cousin, but not by much, and will often be seen wearing flannel shirts, a long coat, and some ridiculous tie. Basically, if you ever need fashion advice, donβt go to the Tuckers. Itβs just a bad idea. Now, as far as personality goes, Casper can be considered a bit of a grump. Heβs easily annoyed and constantly worried for his familyβs wellbeing, especially his cousin: Dotty, who he has always been rather close to, which is probably why she came to him first about her secret, and though she keeps on telling more of her trusted family members, Casper is the only one that sets out to help her with her hero-ing. Heβs also extremely smart, working alongside Dotty and his father at GATES Lab, working mostly in computers and engineering, and such. Heβs got witty, dry sense of humor and though does everything he can to help, heβs going to do it with a grumble and a snarky remark. All the same, heβs very protective and caring when needs be, and is probably internally, stressing out about everything and anything while he tries to keep that under wraps. Heβs also used to having very little time to himself, as he is often looking after his cousin. The one that seems determined to get in situations she does not know how to handle. Which basically means, he has no life outside of his family, itβs actually a little sad. Casper lived a pretty similar childhood to Dotty, the only difference being he didnβt let others push him around. He got a job at a young age, and though heβs never had time for romance, he has been a little envious of those that have. Once Dotty got her powers, he was the first to know, and has been with her every step of the way, trying to make sure she doesnβt die, while constantly shaking his head at all the antics she finds herself in. ||  Dotty is his cousin || Tech support for hero. (I dont know whether to make it blue or white though.) || None || πβππ π£π[/font]

Pretty good, I think maybe you should put this either in third person or in first person saying like one of the founders of the new league so to speak. Whether it's your character or my character. Because you're kind of switching between 2 different phases and it's a little confusing. But beyond that it needs a few grammar edits an it'll be good to go.

The coding doesn't have to perfect. Do you think it'd be easier to have two or three different forms up there one for each civilian villain or hero? Or alternatively when it comes to updating it I can post it and that way you don't have to deal with the coding?

Here's another idea that I've been playing around with. What if we change the color of the name to match the allegiance. A techie for hero would be blue? And tech for the villain would be yellow?
Also, you think we should put a slot for age on the joining form?
I just feel like maybe you should add a little bit of info from like one of the heroes or maybe just an Earthling so the reader won't be confused who's is talking.

Another question do you like the colored boxes and the white text for the rules and such or should I change the white text to match whatever color the box is that is next to it?
I will agree that the scrolling boxes makes it look nicer and will cause a lot less scrolling for people.

Success! One character down!
Ok sounds good to me. That's one less thing to code for me.
I have one more thing that you could do to make this easier. You can post what symbols are for what when it comes to the relationship
Like if a character has a one sided crush which can be different from a mutual crush, who is related to who, and then who is married, if we ever get that far, i'm more concerned about the dating symbol. And so on...

OOC How about something like this?
A < B (A likes B ) A >< B (A and B like each other) A + B (A and B are together) A & B = C (A and B are married, and C is their child.)
Then for friends and family, we can just be like: A is Bβs cousin. A and B are friends. A and B are enemies.
So on and so forth.

OOC The About.
Hello there everyone, and welcome to: When Heroes Rise. Basically, this is a roleplay set in the DC comic world, where the Justice Leauge has vanished, and after two years, a group of new heroes arise, and unite together to form their own makeshift Justice Leauge, it starts out as just a way to protect the world, but what really unites them, is when the Dominators come back, this time, working with a new, dangerous ally, and this new Justice Leauge will really have to step up, work together, and find a way to beat the Dominators. There will be no canon characters in this roleplay, only ocs, but mentioning canon characters is obviously, welcomed, as itβs impossible not to mention some of them.
Feel free to add to it.
