    Re: Heroes from All Fifty States

    My favorite NPC hero from my homestate of Washington was a Wind EC character by the name of Chinook. (Pacific Northwest Indian word for a warm wind after summer has ended. I think. Also called an Indian summer.) The character would fly in at the last minute, create a huge mess by clumsy power use, then hog the media spotlight. I think he didn't show up more than twice, and I still remember him vividly about 20 years later.

    Hex Re: Heroes from All Fifty States

    still dealing with a publisher.
    making minor tweaks to the layout.
    planning the first volume will be West Coast.

    =========================

    Fixed It!


    the rivalry is now well established: Green-Tech is the eco-terrorist supervillainess from the west coast.

    and therefore GreenTech is the hero from Vermont.

    people get killed for leaving out that dash, let me tell ya!

    ===============================

    and BTW Cincinnuit:

    there's room for a whole thread devoted to Native American heroes;
    like "What would the USA-5O look like if the english had not conquered America?"

    Joint Re: Border Liaisons

    I've taken some liberties, cause I need more foes for the USA-5O.
    I'm not saying these ladies are evil, I'm saying that sometimes
    there's "policy discussions" at the northern and southern borders...

    SONORA-X,
    the lovely mutant from Mexico




    and on the US northern border....

    So that's what an invisible barrier looks like.

    For publication maybe you should talk with some of the artists on the boards see if they would be willing to help with doing hand done pictures for the characters.

    I decided to (re-)do this guy first because he's the easiest. No image trickery, he's straight from the app.
