WWYCD: Foxbat The Mighty!

Re: WWYCD: Foxbat The Mighty!

 

After Foxbat shrugging off Doc Vision's usual combos of Flash, Penetrating AoE sound, etc. Doc would quickly come to the conclusion that Foxbat is best defeated by persuasion. Unfortunately, Doc doesn't have the Pesuasion skill, so he'd leave it to whoever in the group had the highest. Then he'd consider the best ways to take care of Foxbat via Persuasion:

 

1) Convince him he really has no powers. Foxbat is in a Mental Illusion, etc. Given this is Foxbat, it might just work.

 

2) Convince Foxbat to leave everybody alone. Not sure how to do that; perhaps everyone is now "not a challenge" for him?

 

3) Send Foxbat after a villian. Preferably a single-minded/stupid but powerful villain who is currently threatening the PCs. Doctor Destroyer is right out; he'd simply outwit Foxbat. Takofanes would probably just mind control him. Istha Vahn might be defeated, but it would also put the PCs on her "hit list." Not a good idea. Probably Mechanon, then, since he wants to eliminate all organic life anyway. Failing (or afterward) that, the villain group currently threatening the PCs, and/or who are most vulnerable to Foxbat. CLOWN tops the list just because they're so damn annoying. (BTW, does FRed still have CLOWN? I heard they got removed.)

 

4) Convince Foxbat he must defeat himself. "You're your own evil twin! You must defeat yourself before you defeat yourself!"

 

5) Convince Foxbat to become a superhero. "With great power comes great responsibility." He would probably be even worse as a hero than a villain...not a good idea.

 

6) Get Foxbat to leave the planet. Not a good idea. He might run into some aliens and trigger an invasion.

 

So, start with 3), and if that fails, go to 4). 4) would just be fun anyway. "Take that Foxbat! No, take that! Forxbat the Might cannot defeat Foxbat the Mighty!"

Think of the nuclear launch button in the hands of a C- student who cannot even name the capital of Afganistan. No, bad example.

 

Did you ever see the campy 60's Adam West Batman TV show? Think of the sillyest villian from that. That's Foxbat on a good day. Like the old Batman villians, he's obsessed, focus dependent, and inclined to elaborate plots that somehow just don't work out. On top of that, he believes he's a comic book character. So you give Freddy this kind of power boost, and the loose cannons scurry for cover.

 

Odds are that Foxbat did not even need the money, he just wanted a hero to see him holding up a bank, literally.

 

 

The silliest villain from the '60s Batman? Let's see, there was the Archer,

the Bookworm, King Tut... kind of hard to pick the silliest villain out

of that lot when they were equally silly. I know that there were other

non-canon villains that appeared on the show, but aside from the Roger

C. Carmel character, I can't remember a one of them.

Go home and acquire new pants.

 

You can easily prevent people finding out about such misfortunes by wearing two pairs of underpants, one on the inside and one on the outside of your trousers. Even it gets through both the inner pair and your pants the outer pair keeps you looking good. Just a little trick I picked up from someone from out of town, way out of town.

Neutralize the imposter and then launch a rescue mission for the real Foxbat.

 

I think everyone's on board for step 1 of that plan
