[Ultimate Marvel] Ultimizing Thor Villains

[Black Omega]

I'm considering ideas for an upcoming Marvel game I'll be playing in and idea occured to me. Since the idea is that the PCs are the kids of supervillains (inspired by Runaways, yes), I was considering a way to Ultimize old Thor villains Executioner and Enchantress.

Seemingly Amora the Enchantress would change little. Asgardian, magic using. In some ways she's easy to Ultimize simply because she's not a goddess. No divine power, just learned magic and the ability to enthrall. Take away the silly costume of her classic period, dress her in something fashionable and she's set.

Executioner I'm wondering more about. In the main Marvel Universe he was half giant, half Asgardian. I'm tempted to make him a mutant for this version, someone found by Enchantress when she fled/was banished to earth. To my mind, the essentials of Executioner are he is muscle, a highly skilled fighter and very powerful. But his origin determines in my mind the style of fighting he uses, which would be what the kid learns. The classic Asgardian/giant Execitioner would teach the weapons style from UMA and probably basic brawling. Maybe Norse wrestling. A more mortal Executioner would use more modern martial arts and could be from anyplace, Scandenavia, Asia, American, ect. I'm uncertain and how much to change him, though.

Any one else try to Ultimize characters for a game?

They sing no songs in Hel, nor do they celebrate heroes, for silent is that dismal realm and cheerless. But the story of the Gjallerbru and the god who defended it is whispered across the nine worlds. And when a new arrival asks about the one to whom even Hela bows her head, the answer is always the same...

He stood alone at Gjallerbru...

...and that answer is enough.

Well actually she never had any "divine power". But does the Ultimate universe even have magic?

[Black Omega]

Well actually she never had any "divine power".Which is what I said. This makes Enchantress relatively easy since there is nothing goddess like to convert over to an Ultimate version of her. She has magic, an enchanted kiss, and the might power of vanity. That's about all I'd need to adapt.



But does the Ultimate universe even have magic?Well, Dr. Strange has appeared in Spiderman using magic. Vampires exist in the world, Morbius and Blade have both made appearances. As well as Thor, Loki, Volstagg (probably). And it's likely Odin who helped Thor recently. So I'd have to say yes. Though it took them some time to establish that.

If you want an Ultimate Executioner, I'd make his Martial Arts style a cinematic mock-up of Vale Tudo--the "Ultimate Fighting" groundfighting/"shootfighting" style.

Having not read anything from the Ultimate Universe besides the first several issues of Spiderman, here are my suggestions.

The Absorbing Man "Carl Creel" -- A prison inmate subjected to experimental genetic experimentation intended for astronauts (to help them survive on other worlds by changing their physical properties to adapt to any environment). It works too well...

Radioactive Man -- A scientist who was at the Chernobyl facility during meltdown.
