Shiny Happy Turtle Goodness

[Super Squirrel]

I just got in five TMNT RPG books from an auction on ebay. I can't wait to convert it to Fifth. :D

I've done the four TMNT themselves so far -- if you come up with anyone else, can you show us?

[Super Squirrel]

In time I will.

Here's a version of Raphael I did recently for an aborted Turtles game I was going to run. Too bad my friend's interest didn't last. Maybe you can get some use out of it. I adapted the writeup from my copy of TMNT RPG 1st edition.

Design Notes
Raph clocks in at about 270 points (like his brothers), so I guess that makes him a high-end heroic character with attribute maximums. The Atemi Punch in his Ninja Maneuvers is there to simulate the "knock-out" ability in Palladium Martial Arts. The Takeaway maneuver is there to take advantage of his Sais' bonuses. The house rule for Two Weapon Fighting simulates DCV CSLs bought to offset the DCV penalty of a Sweep, it's included to better simulate Palladium's use of "Paired Weapons". Raph's BODY stat was extrapolated from his Palladium Hit Points divided by two. This writeup was made to be accurate to the character in the Palladium writeup, as well as in the original Eastamn and Laird comic, to the best of my knowledge.
