Guest WhammeWhamme Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Okay. I need to create 4 350pt supers (good guys, magic powered, siblings). And I figure their powers should collectively fit a theme. But apart from the overused 'classic' four elements... I'm a little stumped. Helps?

Blue Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Re: Good "Four of a Kind"'s... I've got 4 practicioners of magic named Void, Zero, Null, and Zed. (Collectively, the Infinitum; Rumored to have a 5th Brother who was unable to cross over from their abyss). I know it's been done to death, but the Witches of the 4 cardinal directions. Any four spirit totems, such as the 4 winds mentioned above, 4 animals from the four elements (Avian, Land, Aquatic, and Subterranean). Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic... Oops. Sorry, I was looking at my CDs and saw The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Watcher Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Re: Good "Four of a Kind"'s... Well, how about stealing from The Mystic Worlds and have them be empowered by the Four Zoas? Art, Nature, Order, and Chaos. Or have them tap the powers of the Quanterion: The Land of Legends, The Netherworlds, Elysium, and Babylon. Since they're all good guys you can have the one tapping the Netherworld being empowered by Eastern demons who aren't themselves evil but punish evil doers as part of their duty.

Blue Jogger Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Re: Good "Four of a Kind"'s... You could go with four fires. Jade (female) - The mystic flame. General Magic-user (multipower or VPP) Team Leader. Sapphire (female) - The hottest one of the group. Both in firepower (energy projector) and with beautiful blue skin. Sapphire has just enough strength to carry.... Crimson (male) - The brick with attitude. Saffron (???) - The dizzy blonde. Martial Artist? Just when you figure her out, she flickers and becomes something else. (Ooh... Multiform perhaps? Or just teleports.) Maybe has one inch of stretching as she is like a candle flame in the wind.

assault Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Re: Good "Four of a Kind"'s... If you're not too attached to the Theme idea, you could assign the four characters personalities, and give them powers to match. For example, "the impetuous one" might have fire or speedster type powers, and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The characters for my superhero campaign are Fighter, Cleric, Mage, Thief (that is the correct order, BTW I think that is the order they were listed in the 1Ed PH).
