pinecone Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I have just finnishing up my new character, and I am having trouble with a name. I am currently calling him Ocho, because of his 8 mystical masks of power, but I am not happy with that name. I also am having problems with the disads. Thanx in advance for your help...

I am currently calling him Ocho, because of his 8 mystical masks of power, but I am not happy with that name. I also am having problems with the disads. Thanx in advance for your help... If you don't mind using the name of a real luchadore, he could be called Octagon. Can't refuse a wrestling challenge is a good disad. Social: Secret Identity is perfect. El Santo was buried in his mask. Hunted: Rudo luchadore. Psych: Flashy/Flamboyant/Daredevil and/or Superheroic Good Guy are also suitable. You could probably get away with Style Disad as well as Dist Features: Always wears mask, if you want to go the full luchadore route.

pinecone Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Re: Help with a mexican masked wressler Got to use Octagon, El hombre de ocho caras, I'm guessing the GM wanted to play up the less serious side, we went against a scratch team put together by Foxbat, I got to Lucha Bulldozer. The poor fool, he speaks like a luchador, but lacks technical ability. The Crimson Cat insisted on getting a "souvineer" and took Bulldozers pants...I'm Sure I'll be hearing from him again......I'll try to post a "in character" report back to the Mexican authoritys...
