Competent Normal Super Challenge [Archive] - HERO Games Discussion Boards

OddHat

Jul 21st, '03, 08:53 AM

This idea is stollen from the old GURPS boards, and has probably been done here before.
The Challenge: What kind of Supers can be made for 50 base points + no more than 50 points in Disadvantages. No selling characteristics back for extra points, and every character should have at least one or two skills they could use to make a living.
Use of Such Characters:
These characters can be used as competent normal DNPCs, colorful agents and/or thugs, minor NPC villains and heroes, minions of tougher characters or as the basis for a very low powered campaign.

Any takers? :cool:

Background/History: "Big Red" Mark Carter was born and raised in the great state of Texas. A good boy with a temper and none too bright, he might have gotten into trouble if it weren't for his love of trucks. He became a trucker, and not a bad one. One night while driving a load from Atlanta to Pitsburgh, PA things went wrong for Mark, way wrong. A couple of supers were pounding the heck out of each other in the road. Mark stopped in time, and stayed to watch. He couldnt believe it when one of the freaks lifted his truck and threw it at the other. He couldn't believe he survived. He couldn't believe it when he crawled ot of the wreck bigger, stronger, and tougher than any normal man. Finally, he couldn't believe it when the freak who'd thrown his truck one punched him into unconciousness.
Mark is back on the road again, trying to live a normal life, trying not to be bitter, and most of all trying to convince the insurance company to stop hounding him for the costs of replacing his old truck.

Personality/Motivation: Mark would love to be a Super-Hero. Heck, he'd love to be a Super-Villain. Unfortunately, his few attempts to go one on one with Supers have taught him that he doesn't have what it takes. He doesn't have the brains or people skills to be a cop, he doesn't want to be a thug, and so he goes on driving. He hopes to one day find a way to use his strength to make his living, but he hasn't found it yet.

Quote: "You ain't half my size boy! Back down before you get hurt!"

Powers/Tactics: Big Red will usually open with a PRE attack, assisted by breaking something. Against ordinary folks this is often effective; he is after all 7 feet of solid muscle. Supers and trained fighters are rarely impressed.

Background/History: Herman Finkle, comic book store owner, has spent his life delving into the mysteries of the occult. Well, actually he's spent most of his life delving into the mysteries of comic book and sci-fi fandom, but in his spare time the occult has definitely been a top priority. His big break came when he answered an add for Master Kalzor's Real Magic Kit from an old Issue of Amazing Tales of Blood. The kit worked! Overnight Herman became Zardoz, Master of Magic! The world...remained unimpressed. Herman did manage to attract the attention of both Demon and the police. Demon made him an offer he didn't want to refuse, and the police frightened the beejeezus out of him. Herman converted his Comic Book store into a Comic Book and Occult Goods Emporium and decided to continue his quest for that which man was not meant to know a bit more quietly.

Personality/Motivation: Think the Simpson's Comic Book Store guy as an Occult Book Shop owner. Herman willingly serves Demon and any magician who can teach him anything at all, talks endlessly with anyone he can about his theories, loves attention, and would sell his own mother's soul to the devil for a complete set of mint condition 1326 Talismans of Abu-Akaar.

Quote: "Please, call me Zardoz, Master of Magic, Knower of secrets, Mighty and powerful...where are you going?"
"Don't hurt me!"

Powers/Tactics: Surprisingly competent outside of combat, Herman can use an endless array of minor magics to make the lives of those he dislikes very unpleasant. In combat (which he wishes to avoid at all costs), Herman will assume a body of mist and flee at the first opportunity.

Campaign Use: Perfect as a snitch or contact in the occult world, Herman could also be used as a minor league enemy.

Appearance: Short, fat, bald. Always wears oversize black T-shirts and jeans.

He is well aware of his physical limitations. On the other hand, Bob believes from experience that he can sell anything to anyone, that people need a leader, that great times call for a great man, and that he is that man.

Bob is a metahuman. He can't fly, or shoot lightning from his hands, or heal. But Bob is very, very easy to like. People listen to him, and tend to take his advice. He got his first corporate job at the age of 19 by wandering into a board meeting and asking for it. By the time he was 25, Bob was a world-reknowned wheeler-dealer, charming his way across the globe. Now one of the world's richest men, Bob seeks new challenges. The world of his fellow metahumans is about to change.</td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td bgcolor="white" align="left" colspan=2>Powers/Tactics: Bob has a low level telepathic ability to influence those around him. Given time he can befriend almost anyone through persuasion, acting and seduction. Most people will do almost anything for a friend like Bob. If faced with an imediate physical threat, Bob will use a PRE attack boosted either by Oratory or Persuasion to try to talk his foes down until he can get help.</td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td bgcolor="white" align="left" colspan=2>Campaign Use: Played as Evil, Bob makes a fun minor villain working for someone far more powerful. He'd work well as a corupt politician or member of a conspiracy. Played as Good, Bob makes a perfect sponsor for a hero team, and he'd also work well as the DNPC love interest of a female hero.</td> </tr></table><table><tr><td bgcolor="white">Character created with <a href="http://www.herogames.com" target="new">Hero Designer</a> (version 1.47)</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
