Character #39 - Triclops

 

One or two of the players in the New Sentinels campaign have compared the V'hanian Operatives I've posted here to Marvel's Imperial Guard. That's a pretty good comparison, though I hadn't consciously sought to emulate the Imperial Guard.

 

That said, given that there certainly is some similarity, I thought I'd take the homage a bit further, and add a few characters inspired by the comic in which the Imperial Guard first appeared, and with which they are still most closely associated. Following is a partial write-up of a character who is part homage and part spoof - one the X-Maniacs here might enjoy.

 

As always, comments are welcome and appreciated.

 

Excelsior!

Re: Sharing the Wealth (Nods to Enforcer84)

 

I swair man...you could fill an enimies book with agents of Miss V'hanian. In fact...why is there not one? A sort of an "orginzation" book on the Mistress Of A Thousand Worlds.

 

I've actually thought about eventually putting together a bunch of characters from this thread - including the V'han Squad - as some sort of free netbook, but I haven't looked into it seriously, in part because I'm suspecting mention of V'han and other properties of the Hero folk would require a licensing agreement, and I'd just be doing it for free.
