History

As the world evolved, the crime fighting organization founded in the early years of WW II and known as the All-Star Sentinels of America, stayed its course as one of the primary forces of good in existence.

Despite their roots in a black and white mentality, time marched on and the those hard black and white lines had become blurred with shades of grey. The remaining active members of the ASA became convinced that they were becoming ill-equipped to handle the specialized needs of Paragon City, and the world at large, based on their current status.

Some of their numbers found the adherence to this polarized thinking to be be non-conducive to operating in todays climate and their ties to the group became strained. Others moved on of their own accord; retiring, or becoming involved in other special interests or personal activities that took precedent over their ASA membership. Whatever the reason for their difficulties, the remaining members were certain that if they were going to continue their pursuit of justice, they needed a new tactic.

Reorganizing their efforts, the remaining Sentinels agreed on a new model of action which centered on a different strategy than they were used to. The new idea involved the compilation of The All Stars, a more loose-knit network of heroes coming together when the need arose for additional manpower. At the direction of the Sentinels, the heroes of this network would be assembled as different teams for individual missions as the situation demanded.

About The All Stars

The All Stars represent a collection of some of the Earth’s mightiest champions and revolves around a core team of “Sentinels” who comprise the foundation of the group. They are led by the “Sentinel Prime” a position which is rotated among the Sentinels. The Sentinels are joined by the “All Stars”, a network of proven heroes who consistently stand against the many forms of villainy. Also joining them are those of the “Reservist” rank, who can best be described as the guest stars of the group, and who we hope will develop into regular members in their own right. The other ranks are currently open and will be determined per their need in an ongoing basis.

The concept is overall simple; the Sentinels (any or all) call together support from the "All Stars" and "Reservist" ranks for specific, mission oriented teams as the situation demands (Think Defenders/Outsiders). Sometimes standing allies of the team are even brought in to fill certain needed roles. The Sentinels then lead the teams through the adventures as they develop.

At its base, the Sentinels of the group can largely be considered as Neo-Silver Age (Defined as: The return of the costumed crime-fighter, who is a black-and-white do-gooder, but with at least one open eye to modernity and real life issues.) The additional players that join under the Sentinel rank should be expected to follow in this tradition, but with perhaps an update of sensibilities touching on the Bronze and even Modern era of comics, although excluding any overstated violence, sex, or over-excessive personal drama.

Players are allowed a total of up five alts in the group, though there will be a limited restriction placed on new comers until they have been active for a set amount to time.

A wide range of “heroic” archetypes from across the spectrum of comic culture are welcome to join The All Stars. While a limited number of “vigilante” or “reformed villain” types may be tolerated, the primary focus of the group will be on “champions of good”.

When adding any character that is the rank of Sentinel to The All Stars, it should be kept in mind that those characters should be ones that are nearing level 50 and have proven to be characters that the player has invested serious time and effort to develop with a rich history. Sentinels should be considered the “mains”, or “go-to characters” of the player. The characters that are of Sentinel ranking will be iconic within the group. (Like Batman, Superman, or Wonder Woman are in the Justice League) There will be no more than 2 Sentinels allowed per member. That is not to say that the Sentinels can never be changed out over time (such as if one decides to go on their own way or even dies), but such substitutions should be infrequent and not made lightly.
