[Certified]

So here we go a home for the wayward bricks. Post yours here, pass them around, see what you like or you don't. Post any ideas for tweaks on builds.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

Here's the last brick I made for our Champions game, he's yet to see play but there's always next time.

 

I wanted to do something heavy defense but not necessarily strong so I decided on a variant Mystic/Brick with high Defenses but not necessarily Endurance and Stun. Mixing straight damage with a few more magical type tricks like the old Evil Eye.

Character Information

Height: 1.85 m Hair: Black

Weight: 86.00 kg Eyes: Blue

 

Appearance: When not protected by his Eldritch Shield and Wards Damon looks like most men. In his late twenties he often wears a suit that looks like it hasn't been pressed in weeks. Wearing a simple crimson shroud to hide his face with his wards active Apollyon’s body burns with arcane runes and sigils.

 

Original Source Image:

 

Background: A normal child with a curiosity for the strange once stumbled into a world he knew nothing about. The promise of power teasing him Damon found himself drifting deeper into the Occult. Joining a group of mystics known as the Coven he moved through their ranks studying arcane ritual and rites until he discovered their true goals. In his attempt to escape Damon was wounded and left for dead. As his final living act Damon struggled to hold onto life striking a bargain with the entity known as Abaddon.

 

Personality: Legally dead, Damon has created a new identity for himself as William McNamara. Taking the name Apollyon he now struggles to repay the debt he will now suffer for in the hereafter.

 

Tactics: With his powerful mystic shield and arcane wards Apollyon does not fear weaving though gangs of opponents. Through powerful curses and the power to instill foes with visions of the afterlife he renders his enemies virtually defenseless. Those he cannot cow into submission suffer from lashings from a whip of eldritch energy.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

I'm not sure how well my entries will fit the spirit of the thread. My two bricks are both pretty ordinary, as far as 'brick powers' are concerned. What makes them interesting (at least to me) is what else they can do.

 

My first submission for your consideration is Alexander Kamensky, 1st Lieutenant, US Air Force (Retired). Alex graduated from the Air Force Academy with a double major in mathematics and linguistics. He spent nearly ten years as an officer in Military Intelligence, specializing in cryptography, translation, and electronic surveillance. Then he was diagnosed with an incurable disease. He volunteered for a government test program focusing on reversing terminal conditions. He survived the tests and gained superpowers to boot. He was transferred from the USAF to a top secret government agency, where he participated in covert operations against superterrorists and other enemies of the state. When he and his team accidentally started the firestorm that burned half of Oakland to the ground, the agency was disbanded and he became a free agent - officially, anyway. The government still keeps tabs on him, and he still keeps in touch with his old CO.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

I don't have the sheet, but the GM in my old campaign ran an NPC named Dr. Armor, who was a little like Colossus, except he could fly/glide on magnetic fields.

 

Other than that he had a 50 STR/50 CON + Knockback Resistance.

 

And, the good Doctor was indeed a medical doctor who had a free clinic, that was continually getting destroyed by his arch enemy, Ogre.

Sorry, that was my best approximation of the Style Disad from 4th Ed. I was away from the game for several years and still don't have a lot of 5th Ed stuff yet. I was just trying to get the points right.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

The perfectly normal Normal proof brick

 

Telekinetic with the following E.C.

 

50 Str Telekinesis

+13 rpd +11 red Forcewall, self only, no range, limited shape, 1/2 End

26 Str Telekinesis AoE Hexes

 

The E.C. rolls in at a total cost of 133 points

Coupled with an Endurance Reserve 100/10 recovery linked to personal recovery (Active 20, Real 16).

 

Add in 11 points of Martial Arts with TK, and +6 OCV with TK martial arts, and you end up with a character that ignores all normal weapons, and still has a 12 DC attack.

 

The total character rolls in at 240.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

The variety of skills is nice with Enigma, a very nice follow through with the character’s background. Also, the fact that outside of his strength and defenses his other powers come from gear was a nice touch. Even though he’s a super class bruiser he still uses some real world style gear.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

My favorite Brick was Bob Tiger. BT was a charismatic (CHA 40) actor who also happened to look like the old Exxon Tiger (Sorta like Tony, but 8 feet tall and much more muscular and masculine). He made a good living in the movies playing monsters. He even did commercials for Kelloggs Frosted Flakes (voiced by Thurl Ravenscroft) and Exxon (he quit after the Exxon Valdez oil spill). His greatest ambition was to play Hobbes in a live-action version of Calvin and Hobbes, but Bill Watterson would never license a script.

 

BT was a volunteer police augmentee (complete with police powers). Once he was assisting the local police in clearing a crack house when one of the pushers ambushed him from behind. The pusher fired both barrels of his shotgun into BT's back. When the GM rolled the damage, it was equal to BT's resistant PD, but the stun multiple was one, so he was completely unaffected. It did, however, shred his denim jacket. BT turned around to face the pusher and roared "I just bought this jacket!" The pusher fainted.

He's not really normal-proof, though.

 

Anyone with AP ammunition will be able to hurt him. As will anyone with a powerful enough weapon, such as a heavy machinegun or rocket (or even a buff enough sniper rifle.) Further, he'll run out of END eventually, and can be caught by surprise with his defenses down.

 

As an aside, he also can't take martial arts with his TK unless he also takes the Fine Manipulation adder on his TK.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

Most of the firearms stop at about a 2 and 1/2d6 RKA the heavy weapons even sit in that range just with auto fire. So I would think a "Normal Proof" would be between 12-14 for a Force Wall the problem is any attack that get's through that will like carry a ton of stun and more even more like the bulk of the hero's CP are invested in just that one power meaning if it get's theough that way you're in for real trouble.

[Psylint]

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

To Zed and Certified:

 

I guess it's a question of scope, I was using the weapons listed in the Equipment and Weapons selection, all of which were incapable of beating 13 rpd, until you got into artillery, light anti-tank weapons, etc. So, no it wouldn't work against recoiless rifles and mortars, but would be fine against a Winchester repeating rifle, a shot gun, a Mac-10, M-16, .44 Auto Mag. etc.

 

Nice catch on the TK, martial arts thing. My bad.

 

Certified, actually, only 18 pts. are spent on the forcewall power (after the E.C. bonus and the limitations) so it really isn't such a big deal. The TK, and the TK Area Effect are come in at 38 and 40ish, which is a reasonable amount to spend on a top tier attack.

Thank you! I had a great time playing him, though the campaign didn't last as long as I might have hoped. Things kind of fell apart after we burned down half of Oakland. (Personal, not campaign-related.) I remember one bit of the last session from that campaign:

 

Our Gov't Contact: I have to say, I'm disappointed at how this mission turned out. I expect better performance in the future.

Jon's Character: Fine, next time we'll try to burn down the whole city.

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

Brick #2 of 3. When I get finished converting him from 4th Edition, I'll post my namesake, Pariah.

--

 

History: From the time she was very young, Janna was different. She was always a little taller than her classmates, and a little stronger. She never had a broken bone, never even got sick. And at the age of 19, she was hit by a drunk driver. Not only did the crash not hurt her, it didn't even knock her down. Since nothing extraordinary had ever happened to her, she figured she must be a mutant.

 

The truth was something else entirely.

 

For the past fifty years or so, Zeus had been contemplating a comeback. Sure, those mortals he left in charge when he took his leave of Earth were never too bright, but this was just too much. Those impudent mortals had come to deny the need - even the existence - of any of the gods. And a few of them, superheroes and supervillains, as they called themselves, had even begun claiming to be gods - or at least acting like gods, which was no better. Something had to be done, and Zeus was just the god to do it.

 

Of course, for maximum effectiveness, Zeus realized that he needed an avatar (read: flunkie) to fight his enemies and carry out his plans while he schemed and plotted. Heracles and Ares had always served adequately in the past for such things. But Heracles no longer seemed interested in conquest, and Ares had become too treacherous and bloodthirsty to be trusted. He'd just have to get an avatar the old fashioned way....

 

For reasons unfathomable to any but himself, Zeus chose a rather average Chicago housewife, Stacy Allen. He abducted her husband George, a construction foreman, and gave him a one-day case of amnesia. Then, shapeshifted to resemble George in every particular, he appeared at Stacy's door with a dozen red roses and a bottle of wine (provided by Bacchus) guaranteed to increase both her desire and her fertility. Stacy was shocked to see such a display of affection and romance from her husband (or so she thought), and the rest, as they say, is history. Stacy still remembers that night fondly, and George still believes he hit his head on a steel I-beam the following morning, resulting in a concussion and slight memory loss.

 

Janna, of course, knows nothing of this. She just knows that she's got talents beyond what is normally considered 'human'. She never went into athletics, much to the chagrin of her school's basketball and volleyball coaches. She didn't think it would be fair. She was a cheerleader one year, but gave it up when it became apparent that she and the head cheerleader had a 'personality conflict'. So she tried to fit in, as best a girl of her height could. And she did quite a job of it.

 

Janna finished an average high school career, graduating somewhere in the top half of her class. She went to a local business college and got a particularly ordinary job as an administrative assistant at a real estate agency. She lives in a typical apartment, drives a nondescript car, and has a rather boring social life. To all appearances, Janna Allen is Ms. Average.

 

The truth is something else entirely.

[Pariah]

Re: Brick Collection (Spin off from Normal Proofing Bricks)

 

PARIAH

 

BACKGROUND: Misfit.

 

Azariah had always been something of a maverick in the Society. He understood the need for secrecy. Had the rest of the world known of the Society's existence during the Dark Ages, the superstitious masses would have destroyed it in its infancy. Had the Society's magic been public knowledge, it would never have survived the Inquisition or the Enlightenment. The world wasn't ready to acknowledge such power. The world just wouldn't--couldn't--understand.

 

But all of that was in the past, or so it seemed to Azariah. With the advent of the age of superheroes, the world had learned to accept powers and concepts their fathers and grandfathers would have tried to destroy. And there was so much good that the Society could do for the world. Azariah began advocating openness with the world. He thought he could get others to see things his way, to realize the opportunity that lay before them.

 

He was wrong. He was given one chance to stop spreading his divisive opinions. When he continued, he was brought before the rulers of the Society and judged. It was decided that if Azariah wished for interaction with the 'normal' world, he would live as a part of it.

 

The Banishment Ritual was performed for the first time in memory. Azariah was stripped of most of his magical powers. His memory of Society strongholds and rituals was removed. He was exiled to a remote part of the world to live as a solitary farmer. And he was given a warning: if he used his magic publicly or revealed the existence of the Society, they would kill him.

 

Outcast.

 

Azariah Sheppard became a farmer in a remote valley in the mountains of northwestern Wyoming. He would never have made it were it not for his ability to create rain for his thirsty crops. He lived for a few years as a hermit, fearful of contact with the rest of humanity and of the reprisal that would come from the Society if any learned of his secret abilities.

 

But neither his remote location nor his remaining magical abilities were proof against human contact. He was forced to use his abilities to rescue a group of hikers that had become lost and wandered into his valley during a blizzard. The media searched for this mysterious Samaritan and found his home, but was never able to find him. The excitement died down after a few weeks, but Azariah was convinced that that little exposure would be more than enough to get the Society's attention and arouse their wrath.

 

He decided that his only course of action was to find a new location and hope that the Society would at least be delayed in their retribution. As he wandered the mountain wastes, he fell through a hidden crack in the snow and found himself atop a pile of hazardous waste. Curiosity got the best of him, and he followed the tunnel that led from the dumping ground. He soon found himself in a top secret Genocide base.

 

The Genocide troops captured him in quick fashion and placed him in a holding cell. Despite his magical abilities, he might have stayed there to rot had it not been for the timely attack on the complex by Watchtower, a prominent superhero group. He managed to escape in the confusion.

 

Over the next several weeks, Azariah discovered that his exposure to the hazardous waste had changed him. He was now a mountain of a man, nearly six and a half feet tall and at least three hundred pounds. Furthermore, he had vast strength and resistance to injury. With these new powers added to his own magical abilities, he now had the power to defend himself and others.

 

Let the Society bring their reprisals now. Azariah had nothing to fear from them, no reason to conceal his abilities or his story. There was too much that was evil in the world, too many that used power to prey on the weak. The Society might be able to ignore that, but he couldn't. He would use his abilities--all of them--to protect those who were unable to protect themselves. He would be more than an exile. He would be a hero.

 

Pariah.

 

QUOTE: "We will do this because it is the right thing to do. We need no other reason."

 

PERSONALITY: Azariah Sheppard is very much a product of his environment(s). The Society was closed, conservative, and stifling, almost paranoid. He learned morality in absolutes; good and evil were clearly drawn in black and white. He still has very definite opinions about right and wrong, but they're a little different than they once were.

 

Azariah is generally calm, self-assured, and reasonable. If there's anything that makes him upset, it's prejudice and persecution. He fights for equality and harmony between peoples, ideas that got him kicked out of the Society. He hates bullies and will try to thwart them at any opportunity. He is a staunch supporter of personal freedom and individual responsibility.

 

Azariah is an intelligent and soft spoken man. He's a doer, not a talker--he prefers to let his actions speak for him. He has a long memory for the deeds of friends...and enemies. If he has any personality failing, it's that he tends to carry a grudge. He also tends to be overconfident in battle, due to the varied nature of his abilities.

 

POWERS / TACTICS: Pariah is a brick with a twist. Like most bricks he has great strength and is very hard to hurt. But he also has magical powers that can give him a lot of tactical options in a fight. He likes to start a fight with Air magic because of the versatile things he can do with it (teleportation, invisibility, telekinesis, etc.). Against truly powerful opponents he will use the most powerful of his magics, Earth magic (growth, density increase, extra strength, etc.). He also has useful spells in Fire and Water that he'll use as specific circumstances require.

 

APPEARANCE: Azariah Sheppard is a big man: 6 foot 5, 300+ pounds. He has dark brown (almost black) eyes and darker than normal skin. His black hair is worn short in a very conservative cut. Most people would consider him North African or Mediterranean by his appearance, but even he doesn't know for sure where he was born.

 

Due to his magical abilities, Pariah's costume can vary from fight to fight. His typical costume is a sleeveless black bodysuit with a half-face coverage mask. Over the bodysuit he wears a white tabard with green trim and fastened with a white belt. The emblem on his tabard shows representations of earth, air, fire, and water, showing the elements from which he draws his magic.

Background/History: Joshua Knight was born and raised in Washington D.C. His father, a career military man, taught him from a very early age to love his country. Joshua was a briliant student in school and a star athlete of his high school. After graduating, Joshua attened Harvard on a full scholorship and after finishing his law degree he moved back to the capitol and passed the bar exam. His life was going well for him and his family. He had just been offered a partnership in a well established law firm, and his father had just got promoted to a position in the Petnagon. Life was good and then it happened. September 11, 2001. The terrorist attacks on this country left American's in shock, they hapened so quickly that not even the superhumans had time to act. Hijacked planes crashd into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The towers were completely destroyed as were sections of the Pentagon. Joshua was at the Pentagon having lunch with his father when the attack occured. Both Joshua and his father were knocked unconcious when the plane struck the building. Joshua awoke several days later in a Primus med lab to find the Golden Avenger himself standing over him. Josh tried to sit up, but he coudn't. He tried to speak but his voice was barely audible.

"My father..." he managed to say.

"I'm sorry son, " The Avenger began "General Knight is dead and you are severly injured. The doctor's say you might not walk ever again."

Josh didn't seem to really care about that and asked "Who attacked and why?"

"Osama Bin Landen and the Al- Quaida. They said they were on a mission from Allah. But the real question is, what do you want to do about it?"

"Don't...follow...you..." Josh said confused.

"Your father was a good soldier and due that I have been authorized to offer you and you alone a one time oppourtunity. One of our top scientists was working on a new enhancement serum that would turn a normal into a superhuman. However that scientist was killed in the atacks and the serum remains complete but untested. If the serum works the way it was intended you will not only be cured of your current ailments but have immense physical power. However there is a chance the serum might not work or that it can kill you."

Joshua said without hesitation "I'll do it"

The next day Joshua was injected with the serum and his body began to undergo a vast transformation. After the serum took effect Joshua underwent months of combat training and is now a sanctioned memeber of Primus. Since then he has worked on numerous occasions with several of the super hero teams throughout the country and was alongside the U.N.T.I.L. contingent that fished both Sadam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden from their hiding places. He is currently operating in the New York area and can travel freely throughout the country as he sees fit. His rank in the Primus orginization is equal to the Golden Avengers.

Background/History: Andre was born in the French Quarter of New Orleans. His father owned his own charter flight sevice and he taught ANdre how to fly planes. When he graduated high school his natural flying talent led ANdre to joing the U.S. Air Force. He spent 12 years in the service, retiring at the age of 30. Andre spent the next two years in Lyon, France, where he learned savate. One night however he recieved a phone call from his father informing him that his mother had died. His life went down hill from there. SIx months later his father died. Andre sold his father's business, banked the money, and went to work for another charter service in Baton Rouge. During a return flight from Florida, Andres plane developed engine troubles and crashed into the bayous of Louisiana. He survived but was knocked unconcious. When he awoke, he was strapped to a laboratory table and looking straight into the armored visage of Professor Muerte, who told Andre he had injected his body with a mutating formula containing reptile DNA. Over the next few hour the lab was filled with the cajun's screams as his body underwent it's transformation. Once the transformation was complete, Muerte leaned in close, inspecting his handywork. Thinking he was unconcious, Muerte command two agents to take his latest project to a waiting cell. Andre was playing possum and, with his newley enhanced strength and savate training, overpowered the agents and escaped the facility into the bayou. During his flight through the bayou, he quickly discovered that his new tail allowed him to swim at an extraordinary pace and that he could hold his breath for, what seemed to him, an eternity. WHen he returned to the city he quickly adapted to his new form and began to fight crime, calling himself Reptyle. He even managed to create some custom maneuvers with his tail, intergrating them in with his savate. After several adverntures in both New Orleans and Baton Rouge, he made his way to Florida, where another new hero had recently emerged. Andre found Amordillo Man in the wetland game preseve near the Kennedy Space, and they quickly became friends and partners. Not long after they were joined by Sunburn and Seminole and the Forces of Nature, as the media dubbed them, was born.

 

Personality/Motivation: Reptyle loves being the hero. He loves the attention, especially from the ladies.

 

Quote: To female villains: "C'mon chere, leave this criminal life so we can get to know each other better."

 

Powers/Tactics: Reptyle is a pretty straight foreward martial-brick. He loves to taunt his opponents in battle, unless it is an atttractive female villain, in which case he will hit on them.

 

Campaign Use: Reptyle is the 'Celebrity' member of the FoN. He is often seen at charity events and in some of Orlando's hottest night spots. He can get tickets to any concert or sporting event in the state and is regularly seen at the Sunset Strip (A nightclub owned by former Warrent lead singer Jani Lane).

 

Appearance: Andre looks exactly as he did before his transformation, save for his skin is now green and he has a very long alligator like tail. An attractive man before his transformation, his enhancements only seem to add an exotic side to his attractiveness. He wear a black tank boots and gloves and blue pants as his costume. Also on his left wrist is a gold bandana signifying his achievent of the highest possible rank in savate.

Background/History: Hannover fist was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His parents were rich beyond a normal persons dream. He had the best of it all, educators, cooks, personal valets and butlers. The only thing he lacked was his parents love, always to busy to spend any time with him, and he hated them for it. His unearthly intelligence helped him graduate highschool by the time he was 12. By 25 he had earned several degrees from college and was working at the world's leading Robotic and Cybernetic research company. His scientific peers, however ridiculed him for his age and for his much more advanced ideas. They thought him a quack, but he kept teliing himself they would pay. After two years of ridicule he finally decided to act. He broke into the lab he worked in and assembled a set of neural & physical enhancment bracers and the chips he would need implanted in his body to allow the enhancements to work. Hannover then went to the operating rooms, programmed the robotic surgeon to imlant the chips, and laid down on the table. He awoke several hours later a new man. *Hannover Fist is no more*...he thought...*Everyone who ever ridiculed me will feel death at the hands of Kill Ratio*. He knew he would need money, so he went to his parents house. They were drunk and arguing. He came leaping through the window and sammed his fist into his fathers head, felling the bone of the skull collapse. Daddy was dead before he hit the floor. His mother ran but didnt get far as his fist opened a gaping hole all the way through her torso. Hannover then went home and removed the bracers, tempararilly returning him to normal. The police investigation turned up nothing other than the fact that his parents were obviuoslly killed by a supevillain. Two weeks later Hannover had every single cent of his parents money. He then went back to the lab and had the bracers permanantly fused to his forearms. Over the next few years he sold his parents house, built himself an underground base of operations and an army of robotic minions, as well as kidnapping three special individuals and turning them into obediant cyborgs. He then commanded his horde to attack his old lab and kill everyone there. It was plain and simple a bloodbath. During the carnage several supeheroes and the media showed up, which caused Kill Ratio to get involved himself. He managed to kill two superheroes, which forced the others to retreat carrying their dead commrades as they did so. Then using his super leaping ability he jumped towards one of the tv vans. He landed on the reporter and put his fist through the camera mans chest. He picked up the camera and said into the lens "I am Kill Ratio. I am here to make the world pay for it's sins. You will either bow to me or be killed. The end is nigh...Weep" Kill Ratio then lept away, his followers on his heels.

 

Personality/Motivation: Kill Ratio is pissed at the world. He is sadistic and will kill anyone at the drop of a hat.

 

Quote: The End is Nigh...Weep

 

Powers/Tactics: Kill Ratio is a brick combined with probablly the most brilliant mind on the planet. He is cold and calculating. He however enjoys just wading into his opponents and getting his hands dirty.

 

Campaign Use:

 

Appearance: Kill Ratio wears an balck bodysuit covering his entire body,save for where his wild mop of hair stick out of the top. There is a blood red set of crosshairs emblazoned on the torso front of the suit.
