Character Requests for the Database

I was contemplating the possibility of someone adding two profiles for one character, if that character went through a radical transformation. For instance, Darth Vader doesn't have much in common with Anakin Skywalker even though they're the same person, and Bucky Barnes doesn't have as many powers or skills as the Winter Soldier. This might make sense because Anakin wouldn't become Darth Vader if it weren't for Palpatine. I don't know. It might be unnecessary, but I thought I might put it out there.

On a different note, I was thinking that possibly we could add Earth-1218, AKA the Marvel multiverse' version of our Earth (not like DC's Earth Prime, I'm saying that it's apparently completely indistinguishable from our reality) into the database. Nah, it's silly... But it could still work, right?

And I see that point.  It's a fair point, but even in cases such as that where personality, and powerset are the same more or less each version is likely to have different feats and personal histories.  For instance, using Spider-Man as an example again. The Powersets of 616 Peter and Ultimate Peter are pretty much, personality much the same from what I gather, but they've been through different things, have different feats.



Things is if just mark this stuff in matches and people look at the records thy aren't going to know it was such and such version, unless they click on the link in said record.  (Which is one advantage we have over the old CBUB.)  I'm advocating this not only for the above reason of having alternates fight in official matches but for clarity in our record keeping, so we know which version was used in which fight.



Now I'm not saying we need every alternate version of a character ever made, that would be too much.  However having really notable ones, like say we could have a profile for Mainstrea  I hoever wouldn't advocate having seperate profiles for all of Tommy Oliver's Ranger powers for instance.  Of course this is up to the community as a whole and I will accept whatever ruling is ultimately given.m Comics Superman, DCAU Superman, Pre-Crisis Silver Age Superman, Smallville Clark Kent etc.

Hey, Russ, when you say "All-New" Fantastic Four, are you talking about an FF team from a separate continuity, or is this the latest iteration of the main 616 team? If it's the latter, then the main FF profile already up should probably do.

You could maybe even add a pic of the All-New FF to the main profile.

The New Fantastic Four was actually in the mainstream Earth-616 continuity. They're the ones in the picture. When it comes to superhero teams I think it's easier to just specify which members are involved in the match in the set up, rather than separate profiles for every variation of the team.
