waywardwidget Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Does anyone care to take a stab at doing a work up for a T1000? The one in T2 that mimic other people and shift forms, can "melt" etc....you know the one I mean? waywardwidget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superskrull Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Re: Terminator II I'm too lazy for a real write-up. However, from what I can recall of a movie I last watched more than a decade ago, he was basically a shapeshifter. Give 'him' a few powers liberally blended into the Framework of your choice. Shapeshifting, shape and voice & such, no scent alteration since John Connor's dog could still tell who he was some Regeneration, not when frozen, not vs body loss due to heat, can regrow limbs a HKA, enough to kill a normal in one shot, say 1d6+1, 2 1/2d with Str a smidge of Stretching (1" or so) for stabbing people across the room a few inches of extra running to fail to catch speeding cars with some automaton powers, like Doesn't Bleed and Can't Be Stunned, since 'Uncle Bob' stunned him with a pump shotgun at the mall and stuff but he bounced back real quick some Desolid, not through solid objects, not vs energy if you don't want to have him use shapeshift to puddle himself under a door some enhanced senses, like IR Vision & Ultrasonic hearing, maybe some Telescopics on sight and sound, add a few Per bonuses to make up for Terminators not being the sharpest knives in the drawer As to stats, hmm... Str seemed around 30, the Terminator series didn't seem to throw cars much and the tussle in the mall mostly smashed up some interior walls, sides, they can always stand there and haymaker for 10d6 to batter through tougher barriers Dex is tricky, if this is against superhumans, you may wanna cook the stats to fit your group, 15 for Heroic, maybe? 20-23 for Supers range? Lightning Reflexes might work nicely here Con ? I dunno, they didn't get tired but that could be 0 End on things, with Automaton powers, they aren't gonna get Con-stunned Body-hmm, I dunno, he took a grenade and de-splatted rather than discorporating like a good little nanomolecular menace, I'd say 20+, make him hard to put down Int 13 max, and I'd go for 8-10, the Terminator is no master of improvisation Ego, you may wanna go for none and build him with a Computer mind and some programs but at least he's machine class so most telepaths can't dance him like a puppet, if he's got a score it's none too high, maybe 10 Pre-he's just not as spooky as Arnie untill the freaky shapeshifting and then it's Presence Attack Bonus time Com variable, leave it at 10 PD & ED are gonna need to scale to what the adventure calls for, and don't forget a smidge of Damage Resistance or Armor Spd, tough call, a 4 would clean house against the crunchies he usually fought/killed but that's kinda slow against superhumans Rec- not too big a deal if he's 0 End & Regen style, go for 15 or more otherwise End - Ennhh, I'm leaning more to 0 End now for style Stun -50-60, he's like a nanotech psycho-killer with his Can't Be Stunned Anyway, that's a start for you and 5 or so minutes of work for me.

waywardwidget Posted September 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Re: Terminator II Thanks for the reply....wow only five minutes huh? Good goin' mister! I've done a character like this for an old superhero campaign I used to be involved in...the background was different so he wasn't a total psychotic...but the powers were the same...thanks for the fresh eye...I can see there was some minor stuff I missed out and some major stuff I may have over tweaked! waywardwidget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superskrull Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Re: Terminator II I've been mucking about with Champions since '88-89. I have a habit now of cataloguing characters in my head when watching movies and TV. It's gotta come in handy sometime, y'know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
