Hey. If anybody here is a fan of Overwatch, I'm proposing an Overwatch Academy: Next Generation roleplay set about 20 years after the original Overwatch timeline. If you have no idea what Overwatch is, that's okay; I can educate you on what I know. The setting is as follows:
The faces of Overwatch are changing: some heroes, like Zenyatta and Bastion, have grown weary of constant fighting and are retired; others, like Widowmaker and Reaper, have gone back to their terrorist roots and turned against Overwatch; Lucio and Junkrat have disappeared with little known about their whereabouts. Even though Tracer, Winston, and Mercy continue to fight, it has become overwhelmingly clear that a new generation of heroes are needed. So, the Overwatch Academy for the Gifted was founded to teach new heroes of the tactics they would need when they join Overwatch.
You can use the children of Overwatch heroes or a hero of your own creation. The coaches will be played on a reply-by-reply basis and serve only as plot devices for the roleplayers to use to their liking. Students will spend five days a week learning tactics from former heroes and participate in 6v6 sparring matches; the students are. The Offense students will learn from Tracer and , Defense from Hanzo and Mei, Tank from Reinhardt and D.Va, and Support from Ana and Zenyatta. Romance is allowed, but keep it PG-13.
I will be using my OC Diego Julio Correia dos Santos, alias D.Jae. He is the son of Lucio, who disappears in this timeline, and D.Va, who is a coach for the Tank students. He is Brazilian-Korean by heritage, but he looks only Brazilian.

Some magic. Few can use it, but most of the players probably won't have it. Magical characters will likely believe that they are all alone.
Far future, perhaps interstellar travel (generation ships)
Combat is expected as part of the storyline but it won't dominate the plot.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, one-off scene.
Cody could fit into this
Sounds sweet. Cody sounds like a good Tank character
I was thinking slow kinda bulky Attack, as he's too fast to be a Tank
Good point. Okay, you'll be an Offense
Where do I go now?
I'm gonna create the RP in Sci Fi. There's another guy who wants to join, so I'll invite him too
The RP is created
I'm interested. I'll have to make a character of course but I'll join in.
Okay, make a character and you can join
Might be interested in joining. Mainly tech right? No magic?
Yeah, lots of tech. I might do an Overwatch Paladins crossover in the future and that will be some magic. But no magic here.
What's the current gender ratio right now for the rp group?
The ratio at the moment is "total sausage fest" 
three males, no females
three males, no females
Think Tali would possibly fit in? Her profile doesn't really have much of anything right now.
Yeah, she'd work just fine 👌
I would need a list of abilities (weapon, passive, other ability, ultimate) and a hero type.
Well... I think I want her to be support, but don't honestly know what abilities make the most sense..
Well, what kind of weapon would she use?
Dual pistols?
