Commissioner B. Gordon,
7/4/45.
"Things are heating up around here, real quick. The Jokerz are prowling through the streets, people are rioting, and the temperature is ten degrees below zero. The police are no match for this threat. I've tried to get in touch with the Batman, thus far to no avail. It doesn't help that vandals broke the damn signal."
Commissioner B. Gordon,
7/10/45.
"The siege on the city has accelerated. Cops are showing up dead, snow is covering the streets, and the best we can do to fight the Jokerz is by telling people to hide in their homes. Bru-Batman would have had this resolved days ago. I'm attempting to make contact with the Justice League, which is difficult.
Most alarmingly, a red costume with lighting bolts was nailed to the door of the station. It's covered in blood."
Commissioner B. Gordon,
7/12/45.
"The situation has gotten even more out of control. Most of our men are gone and the Jokerz seem to be growing. I'm getting reports of similar attacks in Metropolis, Blüdhaven, and Washington DC, all from different gangs. The average temperature in these cities is forty below. I've made constant calls to the Batcave, but nobody's answering. Even the Army can't stand up to these forces. Much to my fears, the members of the Justice League have started disappearing, starting with Micron, Aqualass, and Micron. The others can barely retreat fast enough from these fights. Gotham needs the Batman."
Commissioner B. Gordon,
7/15/45.
"The city has fully broken down in chaos. Jokerz are in the station as I speak. There's only one thing left that I can do. If Renee was right, entering this disk into the city's mainframe is our last hope...
The body of the Batman was found this morning, beaten and defiled with Joker makeup. Damn clowns.
'Miss commissioner, we know you're in there! Come out and play!'
Go to hell!
*Gunshots*"
-Fifty-six years later-
The Question checked over the files a thousand times more. He had been searching as a computer program for fifty-six years for heroes, and he had finally found them.
Summary:
In the year 2101, 56 years after gangs took over cities all across America, you (the heroes) have been assembled to form the new Justice League, and take back Gotham city. This takes place in the DCAU, but I don't care about minor canon changes.
Cities:
Gotham: Controlled by the Jokerz, the most heavily fortified and destroyed city. This is the first city destroyed, and is completely covered in ice. (Real-world Manhattan)
Metropolis: Also controlled by the Jokerz, a decaying city, which is blanketed by sore. It's only 10°F. Reports exist of a mysterious blue blur protecting the citizens from harm.
Blüdhaven: The warmest city, controlled by a gang that call themselves Scarecrow, the citizens are regular victims to fear gas attacks.
Star City: The new functioning capital of the United States, it is the only city (out of this list) freed from gang control. (In real-world California)
Central City/Keystone: A chaotic city that's a battlefield between a gang of vigilantes known as the Arrows and the Royal Flush Gang. The police presence is minimal due to fatalities. The Army has set up camps in Keystone, which get destroyed almost instantly. The temperature varies wildly, from scorching hot to freezing cold. It's something of a meteorological anomaly, with constant tornados, hailstorms, and lightning storms. (Real world Kansas City)
Washington DC: Icy rubble with shacks dotting the city. All three gangs use the city as a place to test their weapons. It's covered in ice, much like Gotham. A strange woman is held in chains in the middle of town. Anyone who goes nearby is shot.

One would think that after reposting the roleplay 25 times and getting no joiners would be a signal that your roleplay sucks and nobody likes it.
Nevertheless, my CS will be coming later. |

So the Question somehow turned into a computer program and decided to use program powers to find superheroes? |

I could explain it in-story, but this is a computer copy of the Question's mind, who using various sources gathered information on various metahumans and vigilantes, and he's using the information on people he finds to build a Justice League. |

I released this right after Supers in Spandex came back, but I hope people realize it's a completely different theme and tone. |

the dc animated universe makes me sad because joker dies, and not even in a worthy way. he has a tantrum? the reason he died is because he can't control his emotions, and acted like a toddler because he wasn't battling the 'real batman' who is old. |

I actually never saw that movie. I regret that. I've heard Return of the Joker was great. |

actually, his wasn't the only death that was censored. he kills another guy. SHOOTS him, and that is BAD so the censored version had the guy die from laughing gas. which is... it isn't much better? especially since in the animated version they chose the laughing gas BECAUSE they couldn't get away with killing people on the screenm, so the smile was the best? they did the same thing in mask of the phantasm. turned the laughing gas which was supposed to be more of a violation than death, and made it... both. which yes, is scary, but really weird to see how the original purpose was changed as they tried to AMP up joker evilness. |

ok, but how dark.
like... going back to the joker. joker has always been a bit dark. if you ignore the 1960s. then he wasn't that dark, but it was the 60s! but there are different LEVELS of darkness.
killing joke: he paralyzed barbara gordon, and took pictures... of... her... uhm, i dont feel comfortable talking about this novel on a kids site. basically, its really dark. nice novel tho. dont read if u r under fourteen pls. its made in an r movie. like. seriously
... cataclysm? no? i forgot the arc. but he kidnapped ALL the babies in gotham, and put them in the police station. and was talking to the baby like "listen to your uncle j. life is a joke and you are going to reach the punch line first" and then when gordon's second wife came in, he THREW the baby at her, and shot her. and let the babies... crawl... over... her...
OKKAY.
ANIMATED SERIES. before return of the joker. he blackmailed a dude for 2 years, and then left him glued to the door with a gas mask so he could die in the explosions, not the paralyzing gas. he threw harley out of a window.
return of the joker: he KIDNAPPED TIM DRAKE AND TORTURED HIM INTO HIS SON, and then RETURNED VIA A DNA CHIP.
uhm. arkham/ undern the red hood? death in the family? he forced jason' todds bio mother to like... trick him into coming to a warehouse, and then beat jason to near death with a... crowbar? and exploded them both?
n52> had his face cut off. made jokes. threatende to cut harley's face off. locked harley in a basement with a bunch of harley-dressed corpses and said she wasnt the last one. when she escaped by bloodying... her wrists, uh. he said she might proveherself yet.
he kidnapped alfred. uh, poisoned the entire bat fam after kidnapping them (and making burce4 think their faces were cut off) so they fought. doused them all in gasoline... uh.
THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DARK OK. |

OH and the dark knight returns. yes. that one where he went into a coma for 10 years bc batman stopped working as batman (bc... he killed... jason todd.) and then he went on a talk show, poisoned the audience, kissed another girl on the show so she laughed herself to death, uh... yeah. killed a few 100 people there to prove a point. ran off. served poisoned cotton candy to some boy scpouts, gfave exploding toys to children. (might be confusing movie cs nvoel)shot up the carnival. kidnapped a kid to use as a shielf. and then when batman accidently broke his neck, broke the rest of his neck so batman would be blamed for his death.
not counting heath ledger, and so many other. stuff.
how.
dark. |

OH AND IN N52 JOKER PROPOSED TO BARBARA with her mother's ring finger, and blackmailed a pastor into being the minister (bc he had his congregation) and tried to cut off her limbs with a chainsaw so she wouldn't "do the ol' midnight divorce."
... isnt he so nice? |

Naw they give substances to kids and also brainwash them, murder them, enslave them, and occasionally do bad things to their bodies, depending on the gang. Jokerz are ultra dark, Scarecrow members are less so but are Scarecrow dark, and the Royal Flush Gang is just like a normal Mafia. |
