caris Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 OK, I'm tweaking my campaign some. I am turning it into a more international game with Warlord as the major villain. In the first session, I introduced one of the character's Hunteds. The Hunted is a super powered Martial Artist and spy (as is the character). Originally, the Hunted was going to be an agent of a hostile government. Now I'm going to add him to the War Machine as an Intel specialist. Originally, I had gone with the fairly generic code name of White Crane. I'd like to change it to something more in keeping with War Machine's theme. I’m not thrilled with any of the ideas that I’ve come up with so far: Art of War Warhawk Fog of War Do any other ideas? The Hunted didn’t actually do anything last session, and it is still early enough to play around with his schtick some. So any thoughts on what to do with his abilities would be nice. Just, please, no invisibility. I’ve got too much of that already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebuchet Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 Re: New member of the Warmachine How about calling him G-2, the term the military uses for an intelligence officer? Official DoD definition: Army or Marine Corps component intelligence staff officer (Army division or higher staff, Marine Corps brigade or higher staff) JP 1-02. You could "Armyize" the term by calling him Gamma-2. Make him a defensive martial arts specialist. Lots of fancy blocks, throws and counters from UMA and maybe an NND Strike and Defensive Strike. It doesn't all have to be about inflicting heavy damage. This guys's job is to gather intel, not leap in with sword in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By theme of the War Machine, I meant the fact that all the current members have names that start with "War": Warbird, Warcry, Warhead, etc. Hmmm... I think his intel aspect might not be getting enough consideration when I was thinking of names. Must think some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him good Tactics and a Deduction skill and he can outthink his opponents rather than outfight them. KS: Hero Team might be useful too.
