Background/History: Amanda Stark is the neice of Tony Stark, who was Iron Man. When her Uncle Tony was killed in the battle of Detroit, Amanda became the CEO of Stark Enterprises. She built her own suit of armor and bagan her adventuring career as Iron Maiden. At first many people believed Amanda was Iron Maiden, but through the clever use of LMD's (Life Model Decoys) both Amanda and Iron Maiden have been seen in the same place on many occasions, thus removing the suspicion off Amanda.

Appearance: Amanda is an atttractive woman in her late 20's. She has a medium build with black hair and green eyes. Her Iron Maiden armor is a femenized version of the Iron Man armor and is red and silver rather than red and gold.

Wow 47 views and no replies. Either no one likes or there is not much to say...ah well such is life.

[Pariah]

As Bill & Ted would say, "Iron Maiden? Excellent!"

She looks tough. Hate to run into her in the "Grrrl Power" thread.

[braincraft]

Her DEX and SPD are a little high for a blaster. Is that normal for your campaign?

No science skills, but I guess you're representing her expertise with the rest of her electronics skills.

Other than that, she looks pretty standard. Nothing else to say.

1) Well not for a starting blaster but in this case she is an iconic NPC in my world being the heir to Iron Man.

2) Wasn't sure what different science skills would be appropriate.

[braincraft]

I would have represented her iconic advantage with skill levels, but I'm really conservative with DEX and SPD in my campaigns.

I'm of the opinion that high levels of skill and knowledge in a field are better represented by breadth of related skills instead of extreme levels in a single skill. For example, a super-talented teenaged hacker might have 17- in Computer Programming, but a comic book-style computer SCIENCE! master would have KS: Computers, CuK: Programmers and Computer Geeks, SS: Computer Science, and so forth. In comics, 'specialist' means 'better at everything that has to do with his field'. Notice how comic 'surgeons' are always expert paramedics, biochemists, pathologists, epidemiologists, and so forth.

I'm not sure what exactly you were trying to represent with your writeup, or what your view on skills in the game are. Note that Enforcer84's writeup of Tony Stark included more than a dozen science skills, which is the other extreme.

[Greywind]

I've never been a fan of ripping other realities whole cloth and dropping them into a campaign.

[Checkmate]

Also the CSL's with the Weapons Array should be 3 points (similar to the 3pt Martial Manuvers)

[Jared Rann]

I created a character similar to this one as a iconic npc with a bit of super soldier mixed in, in case the my group gets in trouble. I gave him hime the following skills; electrical engineering (electronics), information technology (computer programming), bioengineering, biochemistry and metalurgy. I just thought if one was creating armor that these were neccessary not only in order to make the actual suit, but also how it would best interact with the charaters physical skills. I also introduced skills that would I thought a company president would need such as bureaucratics, economics and finance. I do like your concept very much, especially all the language skills. My character has to rely on a universal translator to get through.

They are 3 points she has 5 csl at 3 pts each thats 15 pts

[Corven_Ren]

Made some changes and added some more skills.

[Checkmate]

Whoops missed that.

She seems very powerful. Although I'd give her a bit more STR (Iron Man seems stronger than that). Her BODY and PRE seem to be through the roof with any apparent reason, but this may just be the level your games are at.

[Greywind]

Funny. I'd give the likes of Batman a 30 PRE easily. Of course his would be fear/intimidation based.

Captain America, a 30 PRE.

Superman, let's say a 35 PRE.

[Jared Rann]

I would say the presence would depend on the campaign. I mean Iron Maiden does have 466 EP, thats a lot of adventures to get noticed on. I don't feel that a 28 in the PRE department is far fetched.
