Decapitus Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Some Thoughts: Silver Belles (definitely has a holiday theme) Star - Star is the leader of the group and the most serious. A stiking, sophisticate who can channel light rays. Secret ID: Well known socialite Powers: Flight, Energy Beams, Light Images Holly - Holly has little trust for people and especially men. She is extremely moody, but the more she pouts, the more attractive she becomes. Holly can accelerate the growth of vegetation. Secret ID: Florist (of course) Powers (require plantlife): Entangle, Telekinesis (limbs/vines strike targets), Force Wall Garland - Garland is the most outgoing and tends to be friendly and naive to a fault. She is also quite stunning, so her teammates are often getting her out of the tough situations she has fallen into. When upset though, Garland can cross short dimensional distances and can occupy the same space as someone (although she finds the experience quite disgusting, "Ugh, they had extra onions for lunch). Secret ID: Struggling model/actress Power: Teleport, NND attack (teleport into same space), Healing/Regeneration (teleport into same space) Bow - Bow is an extremely flexible and an uninhibited free spirit of the highest order. She has advanced training in an unusual style of martial arts. Bow cannot refuse a challenge. Secret ID: Shy librarian Powers: Limited Stretching, Contortionist, Martial Arts (mostly based around grabs and throws), Acrobatics Mistletoe - Mistletoe is just plain fast in more ways than one. She has a strong desire to kiss any man she encounters, friend or foe, often stealing that kiss before they know what is going on. Petite and lovely, Mistletoe is the most girlish member of the team often leaving behind a trail of laughter as she moves to see what's around the next corner. Secret ID: Wedding Coordinator Powers: High Speed, Running (likes to do multiple Move-Bys or attacks with extra Knock Back), Stealth, Concealment OK - so there's my rough draft of a five member semi-serious heroine team with lots of feminine power.

Peregrine Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Which part knocks them out: the bimbo part or the attractive part? Besides, he did say they transformed from the Golden Girls to the beautiful Silver Belles. hehe... I still find it funny. The bimbo part, completely. The attractive part - we're talking Billy Batson to Captain Marvel level transformation here, except in reverse age-wise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Well, some of the ideas I've recieved I'm chopping up brutally and frankensteining with other ideas. As it stands, I currently have (in various states of construction) Sterling- Powered Armor type Sphere- Telekinetic with odd alien orbs at her command Quicksilver- Metamorph made of liquid metal (Yes, I know folks wanted it for a speedster but I didn't want Marvel to sue. I liked the name Mercurial as well, but thought I'd go with Quicksilver as it went with the 'silver' theme a bit more obviously. Ironically enough, I had just made a robot with similar powers for HC with the same name) Chrome- Brick I may go using the name Lady Argent for a mystic rather than a martial artist.

Peregrine Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Then use Silver Fox (as recommended above by Susano) as a super-agent/MA type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Was already going to, but haven't even gotten started on that. Let me finish the sisters Chrome and Quicksilver up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles You do realise that at least one of the heroines must have a disad that sets off every time someone says 'Mary Mary quite contrary...' One should have Druidic powers limited to the creation of things that you could find in a garden. One should have cockle shells And another should have agents called the Pretty Maids who always stand in a row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Even though it looks like you have your names, here's a few I thought I'd suggest: Southern Belle or Southern Miss Liberty Belle Blonde Bombshell Babe Ruth - "Don't call me 'Ruth the Babe'!" Fire - (Redhead) "The next guy who says 'Red on the head, fire in the bed' is going to get it!" Lesbos - well, just because. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles A FYI that might spark ideas: "platinum" comes from the Spanish word platina which is the diminutive of plata, which means "silver." Platinum is very resistant to corrosion, has a high melting point, and (ground to powder) is perhaps the best known catalyst. Make of that what you will.

Hermit Posted January 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: Help me design the Silver Belles Bump' date=' and wondering if this is still being put together as a group of characters?[/quote'] Yeah, though it has been on the back burner since other things came up (Blame Snake Ghandi). I haven't gotten the backgrounds written up the way I like yet and don't have those ready for posting, but I'll go ahead and post one character sheet for Sphere and maybe a pic. Sphere, btw, was a mutant telekinetic who often accompanied her archeoligist father on his trips using her powers to reach in and grab things dad sometimes had a hard time reaching (once she got enough control that is). When ancient Malvan weapons once used to hunt the Elder Wyrm were found by the duo, she attempted to pick them up with her TK and the resulting mix of psychic energies and alien tech merged the silver spheres into her body. In heroic id, the silver spheres whirl and float about her constantly. Sphere is unaware of the purpose of the weapons, it will be quite the surprise to her when (not if) she encounters the slug, and she feels the over powering urge to kill him. While Sphere IS legal, her choice of pigtails in costume and her youthful mannerisms make some guys worry they might be oggling jailbat. More seriously, because she can't prove she's over 18 without risking her secret Identity, she has other obstacles to face when it comes to chasing villains into nightclubs etc. I don't consider it quite a finished product yet. If I could draw, I would have. Instead, Hero machine and a few touches worked together for the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
