Hey guys. I saw the news about the Lucha Libre Hero book coming out soon and couldn't be more excited. My buddy and I have a brand we call Lethal Dos, built around the Lucha Libre theme. You might know might art from a bunch of Hero books. Well, it's been a few years since any of you may have seen my art. Here's a drawing of our two mascots, El Nato and Cerebro. My friend and I are both total geeks and would love to see our characters written up, we just don't have any time. Anybody care to write up our wrestlers?

Thanks guys! Hero FTW.

the idea of luchadores having a sideline as graphic designers sound like a good storyline
that way they have work to fall back on if wrestling doesn't bring in enough

I can't decide if they're graphic designers with wrestling jobs, or wrestlers with graphic design jobs. Either way they smash their competition. :)

Is el cerebro a Mentalist wrassler? Or just a "smart" (skilled?) one?

Nato
Apr 18th, '09, 10:20 PM
He's just the smart one, where-as El Nato is the dumb brick. hehe

Cool, this week is way wacky for now, but I loves the Luchas...so I'll try to write them up...

Assumptions 350 point 12DC game....

Martial artists or Multi- fus? And how "out there" is "OK" Example "Ghost powers" "Magicial Luchalishisness" Not so out there...see several Multi-fu Luchadors I've posted....

If you can find a copy, rent "The Champions of Justice" and its sequel, "The Return of the Champions of Justice." It's pure bizarre lucha superhero goodness. I wrote a review of them here (http://www.herogames.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1764855&highlight=champions#post1764855). :thumbup:

I messed up with the math for El Nato...somewhere....

He was 9 points Over, not 10 points light, so I dropped Body to 10, (Stun drops to 40) and added in a "Dex roll" for the Tiger step at -1/2 for a (14) roll. So he should ballence now.

What should El Cerebro use his 11 pts on?

Or a Luchacave? 10 points buys a 50 point lair, a Gym (A STR lab) a Ring, a holding area a commo room and a party suite (a "lab" for conversation and seduction?), and a three car garage!
