As it's set in San Francisco, will the PCs encounter the Halliwell sisters? Sounds like they'd fit right in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloomann Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Re: What if... Bruce Banner is exposed to gamma radiation. Thereafter whenever he feels helpless' date=' he undergoes a dramatic transformation into the Savant. His logical, rational mind takes over -- pushing aside his emotional, compassionate mind. His intellect is vastly increased and when faced with a problem his intellect is no match for, he grows ever more intelligent until he makes a breakthrough. As the Savant, Banner sometimes thinks of radical solutions to problems facing humanity -- solutions that might include mass murder, sabotage, mind control, and worse. The Savant is aware that he will eventually become Banner again and that Banner will prevent him from enacting some of his solutions. Therefore, the Savant gives his plans to others. To those called "supervillains". Banner must constantly try to figure out what scheme the Savant has cooked up, who he has given it to, and how it might be averted.[/quote'] isn't there a villan called the Leader who has this power in the Hulk mythos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoreBrute Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Re: What if... Bloomann, you clearly have not read either Wanted or Empire. They both center over what would happen if a villain/s succeeded in taking over the world. Techniquely Dark Reign might be seen as Norman winning the Skrull Invasion, however it looks like he's going to lost it all soon enough.

Nuclear Fridge Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Re: What if... The secret invasion strand in New Avengers intrigues me a bit... playing on ego & paranoia - traits we as a species seem to have in spades. I liked the scene where a group of villains expose a skrull inside SHIELD and they wonder what they should do. "We ought to tell someone..." "Like who? Stark?" "... Wait a second... he may BE one of them!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar, but different in very important ways to the idea I put forth.[/quote'] I think there was one story where he transformed back (for disguise purposes), but he notes he finds it very distasteful because it means losing his advanced intellect. To the extent he does transform, he seems to fully control the change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Mackinder Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Re: What if... . . . the Celtics became the world power when Rome Fell? Could be wrong, but I'm guessing you mean the Celts. "Celtic" is used to describe something as originating with or belonging to the Celts - or as the name of a certain sports team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
