Mark Rand Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 This is for my Bat Team campaign. She's the third cat burglar to be known as Catwoman. Unlike the others, she didn't give herself the name. Instead, the police and press gave it to her when a victim commented "she moved like a cat". She's a metahuman whose agility, sense of balance, sight, and hearing are greatly enhanced. Her garb is typical of cat burglars, a black turtleneck sweater, jeans, running shoes and socks, leather gloves, ski mask, and jacket. Her gear varies from job to job, but some of it is the same (a multipower and a variable power pool). Since she has a 20-point code vs killing, she uses only non-lethal weapons. Additionally, she has some training in martial arts. She has retractable claws built into her gloves and likes to truss her victims up with duct tape.

Here's a bit more about the newest Catwoman. She was trained by her parents. She's a redhead. She's always polite, even to her victims. She can run along the tops of walls and fences without any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Rand Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Nice reimage for a older villian, always refreshing! Penn Thank you. More stuff. Besides her claws, Catwoman's armed with a silenced pistol loaded with sleep darts, an electronic stun gun, a telescoping baton, and pepper spray. She'll also occasionally use grenades loaded with sleep gas. Once they're trussed up, she'll assure her victims that she's only after valuables. She'll also remind them that their insurance will pay them back for what she's stolen. She also addresses her victims as "Honey", "Sugar", "Baby", or something similar. Because of the chance of suffocation, she won't gag her victims. Because it has some lethal properties, she doesn't use chloroform. Instead, she uses a drug she calls "sleepy".

What relationship does she have with: a) The Batman the previous Catwomen ? I'd like to read more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No relationship with either of them. As mentioned, she doesn't call herself Catwoman. The press, and, to a lesser extent, the police do.

The press, and, to a lesser extent, the police do. But even if she doesn't call herself that, the police and presumably the media do. I'd think an earlier version of the Catwoman would be interested to find out more about this one, or perhaps even hunt her down for a little cat-fight.

Sleepy was one of the seven dwarves. Additionally, sleepy gas is mentioned The Ship Who Searched, a novel in Anne McCaffrey's brainship series that she cowrote with Mercedes Lackey.

Of course, but what I meant was that I couldn't come up with drugs named after the other six with effects that had a humorous connection to all their names. Happy, Dopey, Sneezy, Grumpy, and Bashful are easy enough, but what should a drug called "Doc" do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Rand Posted January 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Re: Catwoman After some thought, I decided that Catwoman would knock her victims out with chloroform and gag them with duct tape, just like in the comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
