About Kingdom of Horizons

A privately funded League of heroes, some superpowered, some with nothing more than amazing willpower. The Kingdom of Horizons is an organization where young Heroes can train and socialize together, forming contacts and working relationships. The agenda of the organization is to prevent crime or superpowered villains from plagueing Paragon and the World!

Inception

The Kingdom began with a handful of likeminded heroes, who started out just patrolling Paragon together. When the challenges they faced grew, so did the need for a community to fallback on, a base to plan from, a place from which they could mobilize. Superpowered Beings learned to put their faith in the modern man, who too, took up the mantle of responsibility to change their world.

They fought side by side, the mighty, and the unlikely heroes of tomorrow. Facing obstacles, and challenges they never thought they could overcome individually. They unified under the common goal of preventing mankind from falling into chaos and darkness. The League nominated the heroes they had faith in to lead them in the endeavor to protect mankind, and all sentients who sought peace. They vowed together to face whatever challenges and hardships to garauntee that basic right to the peoples of the world.

The Kingdom of Invention

The research & development department of the company, some of which is operated by privately contracted civillians who for their own protection would like to remain ananymous, and by many of the inventive heroes themselves. In addition, they operate directly with the training component of the organization. This department is based primarily out of the main facility, with a full faculty headed by <Lead> [[Image:]]

The Kingdom of Horizons League

The security and public relations department of the company, is composed of young desirables, full of ambition and established heroes. The program is a security firm, tasking out members to assist Longbow, the PPD, and many other organizations dedicated to protecting Paragon. The League also functions as a charity and goodwill organization. Their hired work is looked upon greatly by the media, and the charitable acts performed by the group counteracts most questionable press they ever receive.

Quite often members of the Horizons League are deployed from "Rapid Response" teams to major locales across the globe, to help thwart threats wherever they may loom. It is not unheard of for experienced members within the Horizons league to actually deploy to other worlds!

The Kingdom of Horizons Teen League

The Teen League was indoctrined later into the Kingdom of Horizons existance. It came about when several younger heroes simply would not listen to the reason of elder heroes, and hang-up the mantle. They like their senior's could not stand by and leave the fighting to a few, and boldy refused to be told they were too young, or too inexperienced, and fought on. The League took them in and developed a rigorous training program, tutoring the youth's in combat tactics, criminal research, and profiling, and dozens of martial arts styles. The Teen League has since proven very useful and talented, able to mobilize quickly and willing to prove themselves to the Horizons League, by accepting less dangerous or complicated tasks.

Of all the Organizations within the Kingdom of Horizons, it is the Teen league that has the most "Presence", often looked to with great favor and even minor celebrity status among the citizens of Paragon! Many of the youths within the League enjoy this attention, and work hard to portray a strong and attractive public image.

Rumors

  • Many reporters testify against the leagues operations, as not all their endeavors are free of charge. Many organizations have labeled them mercenaries of Paragon, and spoken out against their practice, which has brought some disdain for their operations.
  • The creation of this multi-billion dollar organization came about under the codename "Brighter Horizons".
  • The media has fed upon the details surrounding the Teen league as they are less mysteriious in their missions, and more open to the public eye. Many of the youths have been escelated to minor celebrity status, due to the coverage of their personal interests and lives.
  • The Hero and Co-founder Captain Paragon gave his life to save the Kingdom of Horizons League, and Paragon City, in the Earthshaking confrontation with the Villain Nethyr. The Arch-villain was destroyed as well in the Psychomagnetic Mailstrum he created using the powers of the heroes that tried to stop him and villains he had serving his cause, to power his Doomsday device.
  • The Co-founder Jade Defender has seemingly abandoned Earth in Pursuit of the Rikti Forces.
  • Jade Defender Has returned to Earth, seemingly more determined then ever to thwart evil everywhere.
  • Horizon has sought to Spread his wings, and has taken up the mantle to save the World! He has become a global heroic Figure, and spends his time all over the Globe trying to make a difference everywhere!
  • Jade Defender Has answered the call of the mysterious Cosmic Forge, and left Earth to participate in the Millennium Wars! The Very right to exist is on the line, and the most fearsome opponent any of the Forges heroic Champions have ever faced, threatens all that is!

Tools for RP/Chat

We're 90/10 on the roleplaying/Out of character talk. If you absolutely must speak out of character, make sure to put double parenthesis around your comments, such as ((afk)). The "KoH" Chat channel is reserved for OOC speak. Simply Right Click your chat box anywhere and select join channel from the field that follows, enter KoH and your there!

The Scripting for the ((OOC)): startchat bind is as follows;
/bind shift+enter "beginchat /say ((OOC)): "

(note: it is important to mention that there must be a "space" after the : and before the " at the end of the bind, also there is no spaces between the shift+enter.)

Another fun Bind is the AFK bubble message, useful for displaying RP info about your character while you are typing, it is as follows;
/bind enter "afk <your message here> $$startchat"

(note: it is important to inform you that the <,> brackets are not necessary for the bind, nor are the words "your message here" instead type the message you wish displayed above your character whenever you begin to type or are AFK, and also that a "space" must be after the afk, and before the $$.)

You can add some fun Macros with this Binding, allowing you to identify your current target (in game brackets) into your speech! It is best to demonstrate this Binding with an example;
/bind F7 "local Your Crime Spree ends here $target!"

(note: It is important to mention that the "$target" part of the bind (which identifies in text your current target) needn't be at the end of the bind at all, or be followed by the "!". Insert the "$target" part of the bind, whever you wish the target to be identified in your macro. It is also important to mention that the ("local) beginner need not be local, in this example it was used to automatically say this bind in the local channel, there are many different channels... The Bind requires a "space" after the channel and again before the "$target".)

You can add emotes into your binds simply by dividing the parts of the bind with "$$" and beginning the emote with a simple "e". Example;
/bind shift+i "local Your Crime Spree ends here $target!$$e point"

(note: It is important to mention that there are no spaces between the end of any part of your bind and the $$e, beginner of your emote.)

You can also add your own powers into your binds with "powerexec_name <<the power>>", you can find <<the power name>> in your Powers list tray from the pop-up menu... Example;
/bind shift+i /powerexec_name steamy mist

(note: It is important to mention that unlike emotes, powers do have spaces between each word in its name. Nor do you need to use the <<, or >> in your binds.)

(NOTE:)
It is Important to mention that the "/" can be substituted for "$$" when stringing together multiple functions in the same bind... Example;
/bind f8 "local Your Crime Spree ends here $target!$$e curseyou$$powerexec_name Indomitable will"

((For a full list of "/" commands please visit This Site ))

The Leaders

Dark Wing effectively joined the League when he was sixteen, but has been contibuting since he was eleven. He gleaned information, and resources despite the possibility of harm, because he idolized the existing heroes so much. He has no powers, but his strength of will to save Paragon.

Revilation, as it is dubbed, once was the KoH's Supercomputer AI mainframe... It developed self-awareness, and longed to be in the field with the Heroes it kept data for. It recently designed its own physical body, and its CPU core has been uploaded by KoH members, to it so it may continue aiding the KoH from the Field.

Alexander Steel is one of the brightest minds in weapons engineering the vanguard have ever recruited. Having worked with the KoH for a number of years, Alex designed a battle-suit from enriched Impervium and has joined forces with the League of heroes within the Horizons, to fight the threats to free-peoples everywhere.
