| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) | comment |
Quite possibly the longest-running - if not the longest, given the reception of the parent show's latter seasons and its later miniseries - forum RPG based in the Heroes universe, Eclipse: A Heroes RPG is a play-by-post roleplaying game which began in July of 2008.Created as a result of both the founders' love of the show and their distaste of the direction the show beyond Season/Volume 1, Eclipse decided to focus on a player-created original cast, relegating the show's characters to either occasional cameo appearances in out-of-character threads or appropriate references before being abandoned completely.As a result of breaking away from the show's plot in such an abrupt fashion; only matching its canon verbatim up until the timeskip following the airborne explosion at Kirby Plaza (Season 1's finale, How To Stop An Exploding Man), Eclipse and its denizens set out on a divergent timeline all its own. Starting from their own Volume Three, the site made it up to Volume Ten in the middle of 2017 before effectively shuttering. | |

| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_112890b3 | comment |
Secret Identity: There have been a few. The Fixer Killer - ...was actually a persona formed by the collective actions of a quartet; Mark Hooper, Jeff Classic, Raj Kapoor and "Agent Spike". Pulse - The hacker alias of Watchers' PI leader Zoey Lindstrom. Kinesis - The superhero alias of another Watchers' PI member, Ronan Mac Guinness. The Twelve Swords (including the Architect, Wraith, Misericorde, Spark, Beast, Orphan and Chameleon) - The collective name given to the prospective members of GEIST. | |

Horsemen of the Apocalypse | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_12c6bf73 | comment |
Horsemen of the Apocalypse: The Horsemen Plot involved elements based on these. The cholera outbreak and the government cover-up of a US-wide famine (Pestilence and Famine) was brought to light and stymied by the then Ark Industries CEO Christian Moynahan, the battle between the National Guard stationed in Washington DC and Dakari's Jamaican Dominion represented War while Lilith's presence at that same battle - due to her powerful ability - represented Death. | |

Artistic License – Linguistics | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_12f078f3 | comment |
Artistic License – Linguistics: Oh, so very much. Though, with the vast majority of the players - past and present - being native English speakers, this was mostly out of sheer necessity. With characters able to speak French, German, Italian, Greek, Finnish, Japanese and even Arabic among others, a popular method for those unversed was to run the phrases through Google Translate and use the result. While this often leaves the resultant phrases rife with grammatical errors - a glaring point for those who can speak the languages in question - the players themselves settle for getting the gist of what was intended to be said and use the power of imagination to fill in the blanks. | |

Big, Screwed-Up Family | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_154aa477 | comment |
Big, Screwed-Up Family: With a middle child who used his ability to commit a spontaneous massacre in Rome, a former psych-patient younger child who can toy with the nervous systems of other people and an imposing Matriarch/Patriarch duo with ties to Danish royalty, the Kroners definitely qualified as this with ample room to spare. | |

Relationship Upgrade: Among so many others over the years, Jenna and Nireva, Devon and Amalia (both started as pairs of roommates/cohabitants). As well as Marshall and Jessica (co-workers to lovers). After Ryan Alcroft hooks up with Adele Couteau in the latter half of 2008 (the summer of 2009 in real time), it took them until the last few months of 2016 to finally get their plans together and get married. | |

Big Brother Bully | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_41d50d81 | comment |
Big Brother Bully: Ryan's elder brother Darron. The bullying had actually stopped for the most part when Darron earned himself a school suspension at the age of fourteen but, due to their age gap (six years) and the fact that Darron moved out to attend university, the siblings didn't get to start patching things up officially until a number of years later. | |

Power Perversion Potential | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_4d070ee3 | comment |
Power Perversion Potential: In a world based on a show featuring people with superpowers, there's bound to be a few. Before they became friends, Felicia Rahal suggested that Devon Ridgeman could use his ability to rob banks in order to keep himself financially afloat. Ark Industries in 2010 became the in-universe poster child for this trope. Experiments into synthetically granting abilities through technology resulted in an accidental and thankfully fleeting Mass Super-Empowering Event which resulted in the deaths of millions. With most of the upgrades to his ability revolving around possessing other people through his astral projection, Ryan Alcroft's definitely at risk of succumbing to this. It's a wonder he hasn't, given the company he keeps. | |

Roaring Rampage of Rescue: Heaven Have Mercy started out as this on Ryan's part. Realising that Adele had been abducted and captured, he drove across nine states (Texas to New York) over the course of two days. Although it was averted pretty harshly in that Ryan didn't get the chance to do any roaring, rampaging or rescuing, due to the Company heading him off on his way into New York City. | |

Pre-Asskicking One-Liner | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_9fde2eb1 | comment |
Pre Ass Kicking One Liner: When the riots - sparked in response to the famine cover-up (see Horsemen of the Apocalypse) - reach Ryan Alcroft's front door in the form of three jocks intent on smashing his car, the one he comes up with shows just how much the past few years have changed him. The fact that his victim wound up with cracks or breaks on eleven bones meant that this was something of a Curb-Stomp Battle to boot. Despite the ass-kicking not taking place "on-screen", Nireva got one when the same rioting spread to LA, leading to her narrowly rescuing her girlfriend Jenna from a beating through mistaken identity. | |

No-Sell | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell: Both Felicia Soler (though she wasn't married at the time) and her mother Khalidah Rahal have no-sold Devon Ridgeman's ability of "tactile molecular decay", due to both having a healing factor. Though their reactions were different. While Devon was - when they first met - able to decay Felicia's forearm to the point where he could tear it off with little effort, any selling of the assault she made was an act to make him think he had the upper hand. With Khalidah's own power being vastly in excess of her descendants, her no-selling was more literal in nature; her healing factor was simply so powerful that it repaired the damage faster than he could cause it and she simply waited until he burned himself out. | |

Bald of Authority | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_b6e75430 | comment |
Bald of Authority: The ruthless head of a small crime syndicate, able to manipulate gravity, well-regarded amongst his criminal peers and subordinates? In addition to being a Scary Black Man to boot, Kiros Monroe was a villainous one of these. | |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_ceec4df5 | comment |
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Although with not so much roaring, Adele Couteau went on one of these in Heaven Have Mercy, killing a dozen people with a combination of her ability and conveniently placed bladed medical instruments. And this was after she saw an illusion of Ryan being killed by gunfire. And when Adele was killed by the Company (although she got better), Ryan lashed out and went on one of his own, directing his fury at his work partner at the time by driving up to Missouri and killing a sizeable portion of his extended family. | |

Sex with the Ex | |

Sex with the Ex: Very good terms, if his one-time threesome with her and Adele Couteau (then his fiancée at the time) was anything to go by. | |

Delinquent Hair | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_d75bf17e | comment |
Delinquent Hair (and sometimes Spiky Hair): One of Layton Ranta's defining features is his dyed hair. The most common colour he goes for is bright red but, as an inversion to the "Delinquent" part, he's perfectly law-abiding, polite and isn't averse to washing the dye out if a situation (costume parties, work and so on) warrants. | |

| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: A minor example of this explains the discrepancy in the otherwise "real time (vaguely) matches forum time" world of Eclipse. With the time taken to finish off threads resulting in one centred around Ryan Alcroft's 20th birthday only getting started in 2010 (he was born in 1989), the year of his meeting Adele - thankfully never explicitly mentioned at the time - was nudged back to fix the error. | |

Legion of Doom | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_dcb2305f | comment |
Legion of Doom: Kiros Monroe's Rogue Society was an example of this. While there wasn't much in the way of official infighting, there were occasions when outside forces set one member against another for brief periods of time and, in the end, the Society dissolved when Kiros was removed from the equation. Bald of Authority: The ruthless head of a small crime syndicate, able to manipulate gravity, well-regarded amongst his criminal peers and subordinates? In addition to being a Scary Black Man to boot, Kiros Monroe was a villainous one of these. | |

From Nobody to Nightmare | |
| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_e1acc872 | comment |
From Nobody to Nightmare: You could build quite the list of people who fit the "monstrous ability/unassuming background" combo. For instance, Ryan Alcroft went from graduated exchange student to super-powered accomplice to a serial killer in a little under three years. | |

| Eclipse: A Heroes RPG (Roleplay) / int_ff555c8f | comment |
Cross-Referenced Titles: Being a forum, this can happen whenever a player wishes. One good example, which also counted as a Call-Back, was Ryan and Adele's relationship. Referencing a conversation they had, the thread in which Ryan proposed was titled "Creative And Memorable". Nearly six years later, when the time finally came for them to get married, a new thread was created. Its title? "Creating The Memorable". | |
