The Offspring
Who We Are
We are the children of heroes. We carry their courage, their resolve, their sins....
Taking inspiration from The Runaways and The Teen Titans, The Offspring are a light roleplaying supergroup consisting of the children, sidekicks, and protégés of heroes. Not all characters in the group must consider themselves heroes, while others may fully embrace a valiant destiny. The group welcomes children, teen, and young adult characters.
As a roleplaying supergroup, players are expected to stay in character. Wide reaching stories and plots are welcomed if they occur and develop organically. The group strives to create a collaborative space for members to share and develop their characters and stories, allowing for free participation in the works of others.
Our Out-of-Character mission is simple:
To support heroic roleplaying and character development as individuals and as a group, with respect for each other as characters and players. We expect our members to demonstrate:
Respect for each others as players.
- A willingness to have fun.
- A willingness to propel and drive the creativity in others; encouraging others in their talents, offering constructive criticism and thoughts.
- A willingness to communicate stories and characters to the group, proactively including the guild in roleplay, and starting roleplay when the opportunity presents itself.
- A level of participation in forum, in-game, and chat role play. We will not force or penalize anyone who decides to opt out of a given story, but support all members as they choose participate.

He has steadily grown more powerful and more adept with his powers under the tutelage of his enigmatic mentor. What remains to be seen is whether he will be able to avoid the pitfalls that come with dealing with supernatural beings or whether he'll succumb to the darker temptations they offer.
