Damn thing gave me fits. Redid some of her skills twice, and rewrote her Powers and Tactics twice. I also realized I was creating a Sapphire clone and had to work on that. Oh, and uhm... those are about all the pics I can post of the wind sprite.

I love the origin. I've always been fond of the Crime Fighting Movie Hero type. Adding in the found artifacts give it a nice Silver Age feel that also wouldn't be out of place in a Manga heroine story. She could go slightly darker as well considering the real world of Hong Kong cinema and its ties to Triad life. Very solid character.

I like her, but I like her when all she was a pic and short summary on the NGD board. but alas; You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Susano again.

Oddhat, I like these comments and am going to swipe them for the website version of the character.

There appears to be some problem with your program a 28 DEX (wierd number) generates a 9.333 (round to 9) Combat Value not a 10.

 

OTOH I like the character...just the sort of NPC to show up in Synergy's Sensundan One Game.

As I do all of this by hand, that's my mistake.

 

BTW, what's so weird about a 28 DEX?

It is a PCism. PCs play with points and NPCs do not. Hence a starting PC has minmaxing all over the place and DEX is the most common target of finding breakpoints. 28 DEX is a stopover point to the important 29 DEX breakpoint. This is why I always up Nighthawk's DEX to 26 because 25 is just a lousy number. 27 is better because even though it is not a efficiency breakpoint it allows you to go faster than those using DEX 26. But DEX 28 has less benefit and is thus weird.

 

You are welcome.

Re: Supers With Pictures: Fun For All

 

Or you could just up her DEX to 29 since the goal seems to be the higher Skill Rolls and the OCV/DCV.

Need to drop 3 points from somewhere else... Any suggestions?

[Hawksmoor]

Re: Supers With Pictures: Fun For All

 

You only need two because of the aptly named Speed Rebate.

 

The character is pretty lean but reducing the EGO to 11 (another breakpoint) will give you the 4 ECV and free up the 2 CP you need for the 29 DEX.

Okay, Tien Feng Mo is now online.

I dropped the CV to 9 and left the rest alone. I decided it was fine as-is for now.

 

Thanks for all the input.

Appearance: In her human form, an athletically lean Japanese woman in her early 30s. In her Star Officer form, a very healthy and attractive Japanese woman in her early 20s, wearing a distinctive costume.

Personality: Sachiko was a typical Japanese police woman, dedicated to her duty and determined to protect and serve the people of her nation. However, since gaining the Golden Gun and some of the powers of a Star Patrol Officer, Sachiko has grown increasingly more reckless. Her overconfidence is bound to get her in serious trouble one day, but so far the combination of her powers and her remarkable luck have allowed her to escape from a surprising range of situations. Her tendency to flirt and behave as though she were considerably younger than her actual age can be both charming and deeply annoying, often at the same time.

 

For all of that, Sachiko is still dedicated to doing good. She has kept her powers secret for fear of being ordered to turn the Golden Gun over to government scientists. She still hopes to one day find a Star Patrol officer, and perhaps join that mysterious organization.

Quote: "I am Super Cutie Star Officer! Surrender, and you will not be harmed!"

 

"Feel my Peace and Happiness Bullets!"

 

Background: Officer Mura Sachiko anxiously whispered into her headset.

 

“No Moon Men in sight. I hear something in the crater!â€

 

The Moon Men’s attack on Japan had begun nearly a weak ago, and all the power of Japan’s Earth Defense Force and Super-heroes had barely kept them at bay. Sachiko had watched helplessly as a group of Moon Men reduced Shibuya’s Tower Records to smoking rubble. Attacked by Space Prince, the Moon Men had fled, but the damage was done.

 

There was no way of knowing how many people might be trapped inside.

 

‘I can’t wait! I’m going in!â€

 

The young officer leapt out of hiding and approached the crater. The site was horrific, and utterly strange. The building had been half melted by the Moon Men’s weapons, and then Space Prince and Star Princess had arrived, their amazing Golden Guns allowing them to halt the building’s collapse. The Princess had remained behind to rescue civilians while the Prince chased after the foe.

 

Smoke burned Sachiko’s eyes and throat as she searched for survivors as best she could, following the golden tunnels left through the rubble by Star Princes' Golden gun. Sachiko heard screaming, and charged!

 

At the bottom of the tunnel Star Princes was on her knees, blood flowing freely from a terrible wound in her neck. A Moon Man stood above her, Psychic Sword ready to deal a death blow! Sachiko didn’t hesitate. Her first shot took the Moon Man in the mid back, her second in the shoulder as he began to turn. The third shot took him in the chest. Sachiko rushed to the fallen Princess.

 

The beautiful girl was younger than Sachiko had thought, barely out of her teens. Her eyes met Sachiko’s, and words formed in the police officer's mind. In Star Princess’ hand was a Golden Gun.

 

*I am dying,* came the thought, *There is no time. We of the Star Patrol are bringers of hope and peace, dedicated to the protection of the innocent. You tried to save me. I can see into your mind; you are a good person, a police officer, like me. I must beg you, please, take my gun. Find the one called Space Prince. He will teach you how to use it. Protect… *

 

The dying girl’s thoughts faded, and her body grew still. Weeping, Officer Sachiko took the gun.

 

The Moon Men were driven from Japan within another month. Space Prince was never seen again.

 

Six months after the vanishing of the Moon Men, The Super Cutie Star Officer began to protect the people of Japan.

Powers/Tactics: Sachiko has a range of powers based on her Golden Gun, but has as of yet mastered only a tiny fragment of the power she would have as a true Star Patrol Officer. She has learned to use the gun to infuse her body with energy, making her superhumanly strong, fast, and resilient. As a side effect, she is dressed in a partial version of a Star Patrol Officer’s uniform, and her facial features and physical characteristics are significantly altered. She has learned to fire stunning “Peace and Happiness†bullets from the Golden Gun, as well a entangling webs and a deadly energy pulse. She has also found that her alternate form is able to exert a near hypnotic control over most men and some women, making some types of investigation and negotiation far easier. The gun can be taken from Sachiko, but in and of itself this will not reverse her transformation.

 

Even in her normal form, Sachiko is a shockingly fast and competent police officer. Her martial-arts skills remain useful in her Super identity.

 

Campaign Use: NPC ally or PC, strange foe in a comedy game.

The Star Patrol could easily be the CU Star Guard, which would make the Golden Gun into a varient on standard Star Guard equpment.

 

Plot Seeds:

Sachiko is defeated, and after her escape is determined to locate a member of the Star Patrol and obtain propper training. She mistakes one of the PCs for a Star Patrol Officer, and treats any denials as a test.

 

Sachiko's sister has been kidnapped by an American Super who just happens to look exactly like one of the PCs.

 

Sachiko attracts the attention of cosmic class enemies, and still only has a very basic understanding of the Golden Gun. She turns to the PCs for help.

The pic was originally posted by Mike "Susano" Surbrook, then stollen by me before I knew he was thinking about writing it up. So, sorry Mike.

 

Still a great pic.

 

The power names are straight badly translated Japanese Anime, with a nod to the most recent Black Rose movie (Jackie Chan co-production staring the Twins). Threw in the the GL Corps ref because it fits the character style. Tower Records was my favorite hang out in Shibuya; great English book store on the 7th floor, and a cafe in the basement. I think it closed in 2001 or so.

 

All feedback appreciated.

Personality: Aka-kun is a sensationalist. He lives for the next rush whether it is his latest fling or a battle with a super powered foe. To him life is something to be enjoyed down to the last drop. Aka-kun actually would like to get to know his brother Aoi-kun, but when ever he meets him something in him causes him to become competitive to the point of seeing his brother dead. Little does Aoi-kun know that it is his father conditioning taking him over.

Quote:“Drop that loot and prepare to fight villain†as he rushes into the melee.

Background: Kenichi earliest memories were looking at the world through the liquid that filled his glass tube. He was the creation of a secret branch of Sakurai Heavy Industries researchers. A biological weapon that could be massed produced and sold to the highest bidder. He was also biologically related to Dr. Amuro the head of the researchers. Dr. Amuro had used his own genetic material to create a son. It was Dr. Amuro who worked his brain into a sensation junky. He wanted to see how far, Kenichi could grow. Also he had added a high level of rivalry to Kenichi for his non-artificial son Kenji. After all if everything worked out with in a short time Kenji too would have super power. Unfortunately for Dr. Amuro, Kenji died and Sakurai Heavy Industries did a little in house cleaning of some of their more secretive experiments but fortunately for Dr. Amuro, he got wind of the raid and fled.

 

The Sakurai security force found the growth chambers, some of which were empty, some of them with underdeveloped fetuses and one with a young man in his late teens. This was Kenichi. The leader of the team; one Kondou-san, being a kind man ordered the scientists to bring the young man out of his vat and into the waking world. So it was that Kenichi was not aborted but brought to live on the outside world. Sakurai Heavy Industries has allowed Kenichi to live with Kondou-san and his family, all the while observing how the young man reacts to the outside world and to keep an eye on him. Their greatest fear is that he has some hidden psyche programmed by Dr. Amuro that could prove doom to the company. But so far, they have prospered in their relationship to the young man and have even gone public in their support of him.

Powers/Tactics: Aka-kun wades into battle carelessly. His tactics consist of finding his first foe and dealing with him. This has led to him being laid low several times by villains, but Aka-kun doesn’t care, it is just one more experience.

Campaign Use: Sakurai Heavy Industries fears have apparently proven true, as Kenichi has started a one man war against his former patrons. Is it as they fear that he has a hidden psyche or is somebody else pulling the string?

 

A new drug has hit the street and after being talked into trying it by a new flame, Kenichi has lost touch with reality. He sees any man as a yakuza and any female madly in love with him and in need of rescuing. How does one stop a supped up and drugged up hero?

Re: Supers With Pictures: Fun For All

 

Here is Aoi-kun brother and BTW I tried to keep in mind some of the advice from the Background thread on the Other Genre Board.

 

 

Very good work, and I liked both the build and the plot seeds. This character would fit right into some of my campaigns.

 

I owe you rep when I can.

Description:

The immense, awe-inspiring, Bewegliche Festung (Mobile Fortress) is thought to be the brainchild of notorious Nazi (mad) scientist Doctor Siegfried Qual, who built the initial prototype as a gift to Adolph Hitler. However, considering Qual's well-deserved reputation for intellectual prowess, it seems doubtful such an unworkable construct would have been devised by him. Thus, several historians mention the infamous Dr. Clausenhausen (a.k.a. Dr. Klanenhissen) Wehrmacht vunderkind and creator of a number of unique Nazi "wonder weapons" as the true mind Bewegliche Festung's existence.

 

At any rate, the massive Mobile Fortresses first appeared on the eve of the German invasion of Russia. Although the Wehrmacht felt they were far too big, slow, and vulnerable, to be of any use, they appealed to Hitler's vanity, and he authorized the construction of a series of the enormous walking machines. When finally deployed they initially had demoralizing effect on the Russian forces, since the twin 88mm cannon (mounted in the vehicle's head) was capable of wrecking any Russian tank encountering it.

 

As the war progressed, the Bewegliche Festungs became less and asset and more of a liability. Their height made it nearly impossible to hide them, and at least one was totally destroyed and another wrecked beyond repair by a concentrated rocket attack from the so-called "Stalin's Organs." Several others were damaged from artillery barrages, Russian dive bombers claimed another, and if reports are correct, one of the last Fortresses was claimed by several P-38 Lightning pilots, who brought it down with wing-mounted rockets.

 

The basic shape of a Bewegliche Festung was of a huge box-like structure, roughly 10 meters long and 5 meters high. At one end was a semi-flexable "neck" ending in a heavily armored head. Twin 88mm Flak cannon were mounted under the head. They were aimed by swinging the head from side to side, and were often fired in alternating succession, since the killing power of the 88 was more than enough to take out most tanks with a single shot. On the sides of the head, in blister turrets, was a single trainable machine-gun. A third gun was set on the roof of the vehicle, as an antiaircraft defense (although it was also useful for strafing tall buildings and the like). The head and body were set on four 10 meter legs, driven by a powerful diesel engine and hydraulic actuators. The entire vehicle weighed around 75 tons and was capable of a top speed of only 25 miles per hour, although to give the Bewegliche Festung credit where credit is due, this speed was fairly constant regardless of terrain. Crew consisted of a commander, radioman, two pilots, a gunner (for the 88s), two loaders, and upwards of 40 infantrymen, who would man the additional machine-guns as well as look after the engine.
