Balok Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Re: Super Names Let's resurrect a really old thread! This group consists of members recruited by its leader, Mr. Blue Sky, specifically because their powers or personality lent themselves to taking the name of a song as their "nom de crime." Each of them also has a "surprise power." The Songmen Mr. Blue Sky - powerful mystical air manipulator, typically wears a light blue business suit and a bowler, a good strategist but has many quirks. Surprise power: can corrode metal by forcing it to oxidize. Bat out of Hell - looks somewhat like Man-Bat (from DC Comics) but has a nastier personality and more dangerous claws. Can fly. Surprise power: can breathe fire, short range only and all but immune to fire. Diamond Girl - the team's brick. Strong and tough. Her skin glitters but she is not a "living crystal." Surprise power: can transform victims to diamond-like stone; the effect wears off in about an hour. Eye in the Sky - exactly what it appears to be, an enormous flying eye. Is a demon summoned by Mr. Blue Sky. Can fire a blast. Surprise power: Can use its trailing "nerve" like a whip. Strikes damage opponents, and also weaken and nauseate them. Nowhere Man - invisible, intangible opponent who strikes from surprise and then fades away. Extremely difficult to neutralize. Surprise power: can make other objects intangible/invisible, permitting passage through them - but must solidify himself if he does so. Can dispel the effect at will. The Rubberband Man - stretching and limited shapeshift (can't change his own color). Similar to Mr. Fantastic except far less intelligent. Surprise power: can "snap" himself to create two smaller versions. Difficult to do and difficult to reverse (activation rolls). Snowblind - cold and light powers. Surprise power: Fire and heat attacks work like a transform, essentially melting him. This is not fatal; he exists as a liquid (and can move in that form) until he cools down (the transform wears off). Time in a Bottle - can stop time and duplicate himself (fugue copies). Surprise power: can create fugue copy of an opponent to fight that opponent. Very tiring (extra end) and can't use his other powers while doing so (because he must concentrate to control the fugue copy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Holck Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Re: Super Names ickerus Ickerus is named after Icarus that Ancient Greek lad that had wings of wax fastened feathers that in his joy had flown too close to the sun so the wings melted and he fell into the ocean. Ickerus my 4 spatial dimensional spider has a similar story Ickerus is a 4 dimensional spider projecting into a dimension beyond length, width and height. Most of the mass in the game universe is contained in the 3 dimensional volume. "Outside the universe" in a spatial direction I shall call "strange" is mostly empty 4 dimensional space. http://geology.com/nasa/nasa-universe-pictures.shtml One might imagine the game universe as a disk galaxy where most of the mater resides. Ickerus wandered too close to the volume mass of the game universe and fell into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A suggestion, given that you have so much free time to work on this project. An indication, where possible, which are official Hero named supers, which are contributed? I swiped a copy of the list and used it as fodder and inspiration for a campaign. Some of these names may have been lifted/altered from your list: Americana(Team) Justice, Truth, Liberty, Patriot, Valor, Sentinel, Guardian, Anthem Seven Deadly Sins(Team) Envy, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Pride, Sloth, Wrath Four Seasons(Team) Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter Rainbow Menagerie(Team) Red Raven, Orange Ostritch, Yellow Yak, Green Gorilla, Blue Bat, Indigo Iguana, Violet Viper Arachnaphobia: Arachnette, Black Widow, Cyb3rspyd3r, Daddy Long Legs, Dr. Spider, Recluse, Spinner, Tarantula, Trapdoor, Venom Crime Wave: Arson, Blackmail, Counterfeit, Fraud, Kidnap, Murder, Robbery, Smuggler. Often hire Accessory, Assault and Battery for extra muscle. I decided against having a Rape villain.

Some others: Algid Arctic Antarctic Boreal Hyperboreal Cryo- some additional suffixes: "-us", "-ean". You can also use "shrike" as a suffix if you'd like - "Arctic Shrike" or "Cryoshrike" have nice rings to them. I also like "Algidus" - has a faux-Roman pitilessness to it.
