Hi! I'm new, my name is Sam, and I am playing another Sam, because clearly y'all don't have enough of those yet.


#PRIORITIES

So. This is Sam Alexander, from Marvel 616, a scrappy Arizona high schooler who also fights crime IN SPAAAAAACE as the superhero Nova, the last of the once-mighty space cops known as the Nova Corps. Except he kind of inherited it by accident after the rest of them were gone, with no training, so his life is a series of disasters as he learns on the job. Then he became an Avenger, largely so the older and wiser Avengers could make sure he doesn't get himself killed before he becomes legal.

He's coming in with a Rho specialization that lets him see through illusions and tell when he's being lied to. (So if you lie to him in tags, it helps me a lot if that's in the narration! He has to actually concentrate and give himself headaches to figure out what part specifically is a lie, which is a pain in the butt and he may not bother, but the bullshit detector is always on enough for him to go "something's not right here," if that makes sense.)

I apologize for his everything. Brood Bellatrix, please enjoy your tiny angry human rocket.

Permissions are here if you want more information on anything, mental link is here, and I am on plurk at estamir and always happy to add!

I will try and have my shit together to get him thrown into things tonight.

60000 years late to this because I SWORE I COMMENTED ALREADY BUT IT'S BEEN A WEIRD WEEK....

--Welcome to the game, Sam! I'm so excited to have Little Sam in game and I'm so jazzed to get to play with you! If you need absolutely anything at all, just shout and I'll do whatever I can to help out. Also if you want to thread or handwave anything with an NPC re: Sam's arrival etc, I'm totally down and available.

Basically: <33

Thank you! If you've got room on your plate, I do think an arrival thread could be cool. He's gotten over his initial ANGRY FLAILING by the open I already did for him but the more I think about it, the more I kind of want to do the initial ANGRY FLAILING.

[polyphonos]

Yeah, I'd love to! If you want to get the ball rolling early, just slap up a starter for me and drop a link here; otherwise I'll comment directly to your toplevel on the log tonight when I get back from work. o7

[polyphonos]
