Post Continuity FCs are Feature Characters that have not been introduced in
the comics by our cutoff (publication date 1992). And though our theme has
modernized the Marvel Universe (thanks to a sliding time scale), the post-con
characters are just coming out of the box. Meaning, they haven't any IC or
canon history.
Post Continuity FCs also have no historical significance to the game (unless
the character is noted in origin). That origin has to match up to the cause
and effect of the Marvel continuity at present.
—Cause and effect being, Carnage was created by Venom. Since Venom has not
created Carnage in our continuity, Carnage cannot exist.
Post Continuity FCs start off with the power sets and power levels they
possessed at their introduction within the comics. They will not be allowed
to have powers or power levels that later evolved as the comic continued.
They are also tabula rasa. Meaning that without the corruption of IC or canon
events, they are able to be molded by the experiences you give them during
role-play. Just keep the overall feel/theme of the character (base personality,
powers, and so on) and you're free to grow them from a sprout to the pretty
flower that they can become.
