Susano Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Or, what is Susano working on now? Seeing as I have gaps of dead time at work (which right now is watching a lot of progress bars crawl across the screen), I've been working on some new character adaptations: HG Wells characters The Time Traveller and his Time Machine -- I'm rebuilding this one, editing characteristics, expanding skills, and making the Time Machine a vehicle. Moorlock -- generic Dr. Moreau -- I think he uses a Transform to turn animals into "people" The Invisible Man -- possible rebuild Dr. Cavor Selenites -- generic (did I mention I have a really nice collection of classic HG Wells stories in one volume? I am skipping WAR OF THE WORLDS if only because several people have done very nice war machines and submitted them to me already. Robert E Howard characters Pictish Swamp Demon -- from "Beyond the Black River" Servant of Bit-Yakin -- from "Jewels of Gwahlur" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susano Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Re: Upcoming character adaptations Do you take requests? Not really. I have a long list of stuff I want to do, and if you request is on that, cool. But if your request is something I don't own or have never seen, than my chances of doing it are much less. For example, I'm never going to do the cast of Sailor Moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susano Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Re: Upcoming character adaptations Not even for a Kondike bar Nope. Of course, the fact I don't own and Sailor Moon doesn't help in seeing me adapt it, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlHazred Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Re: Upcoming character adaptations Do you have that H.G. Wells story regarding the crystal that lets the narrator see Mars? I'd like to see that one. I've also thought of doing such minor stuff as statting out the Purple Pileus as a drug and possibly statting out Jules Verne's stuff. I have a nice Annotated 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea I've been eyeing as Vehicle fodder, it you're interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheImperialKhan Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Re: Upcoming character adaptations The Man With No Name from "Fistfull of Dollars," "A Few Dollars More," and "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" You can find him in Adventurers Club #17. Along with The Lone Ranger, Tonto, Silver, Caine from Kung Fu and a generic write-up of most of John Wayne's characters simply titled The Duke. Thought it might save you a little work.

As for the typo, those are a pet peeve of mine, too. In my defense, that particular critter was copied from the 4th Edition Hero Bestiary and that's how they spell it there (I didn't realize this wasn't a D&D conversion until you pointed that out).

Curufea Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Re: Upcoming character adaptations Possibilty Sword to me would be a damage shield, powered off an endurance reserve requiring a skill roll to use Brucaloc, Uther Doul, the Grindylow, and the guy with the statue (whose name escapes me presently) are all interesting. Plus the Scabmettlers and The Lovers, of course.... I did mention the statue in a previous post on Fantasy Hero boards regarding weird magical items. Tanner is a good NPC character, real worldly and a good contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
