Re: Hero System Good Idea/Bad Idea...

 

wouldnt mr balboa work as a ninja hero character since boxers are martial artists of a sort

 

Depends are we talking about Rocky Balboa from the god movie (the first one) or later films?

 

The first movie might be played out in a kind of Dark Champions/Pulp Hero kind of setting. The rest, sure, Ninja Hero it is.

 

...

 

I'd still rather play Rocky Horror Hero with drinking Rules in place.

Ouch! And considering that Champions Online seems to take a lot fromt he CNM setting' date=' best not to bring up painful memories[/quote']

 

No it doesn't. It takes everything from the Current Champions Universe.

 

Any resemeblance between the two is coincidence and/or legacy.

I dunno - I could see a fun game of retired superheroes (and/or supervillains) in a retirement home.

 

"By Thrak! I summon my Zimmer Frame of Might!"

 

"Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy unite!"

 

The Tick cartoon also had an episode with a group of Golden Age heroes in a retirement home.

Good Idea: Golden Age Hero

Bad Idea: Retirement Home Hero

 

All kinds of ideas spring up from Retirement Home Hero.

 

Horror (As all things flow from and to Horror): Tragically, our elderly tend to be marginalized, it would make for a great group in a Horror campaign (Of course you saw a ghost Grandpa...)

 

Supers: An old threat rises up from the past, the younger supers don't know how to handle it (Think Supers version of Space Cowboys), or the young supers are missing/killed you're all that's left, or see Horror but with super powers (Sure the Scarlet Skull's dangerous we'll take care of it gramps...)
