csyphrett Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! It is hard being a CEO of merers and aquitions of a stock trading company normaly. When your name, Jason Bakeman (ooc, got to confurm this...), happens to be the same name as the 'hero'/seiral killer of the infamous satair noval/splater punk noval American Psycho, eventuly people begin to wonder. And when it comes time to downsize, your the first to go. Wanting revenge on his former company, he bought a speed incresing suit and arm blades from ARGENT and became Cut'n'run. Eventuly, he joined High Finance as there speedster. Bateman is the last name. Not sure about the first, I think it was Patrick. You might have fused the hero of the novel and the actor that was in Hancock together. CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! The Wall Street Wolf got his name for his viciousness and ruthlessness on Wall Street. Doug Michaels was his name and he made a lot of money. He was a close associate of Nelson Craig. Likewise, at the "death" of his friend, the Wolf's finances came crashing down. Luckily, he learned his friend was alive and made the necessary connections to repair his friend. At this point he revealed to the newly annointed "High Risk". That his nickname was more than meets the eye. As he revealed he was in fact a lycanthrope (genetically on his mother's side). The Wolf figures with his friend at his side and 4 new guys they will retrieve a new fortune. Unlike most werewolves he transforms at will. Plus in his spare time he has trained in martial arts-specializing in a new "form" to take advantage of his werewolf form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! Some people become villains not because they have evil intent but because of their singular vision and the fact that this appals everyone else. So if you dress up like a character in Cowboy BeBop who is female and you are a guy, well that is going to attract comment. And sooner or late you are going to be pushed to the edge. And that is what happened with Fate Valentine, the guy who dressed up like Faye. Now all the nay sayers will suffer ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Logan in reality had actually served in the military. Nothing special, mind you. But, he served his country. And that was how he saw the stormtroopers-just guys doing their duty. Well, suddenly his costume actually worked! And not like in the movies. The armor was actually armor, and he could shoot with accuracy. And he had skills well beyond his military background, he was roughly of the skill of a commando. But, the most unique ability he acquired was his "Attack of the Clones" ability. He had become a duplicator. Unfortunately, his "clones" werent necessarily quite so skilled. His early ones were like the ones on Endor. Eventually, he has improved on this. THe power seems to work on its own "endurance reserve". He has learned that the abilities of his clones will depend chiefly on how much time he gives to creating them, and how energy in the reserve he puts into creating them. With the max. of time and energy put into one, they can be 99% of what Dave is. The less put into them the weaker the armor, the worse shooting accuracy, and generally the less competent overall the particular clone will be. Of course, in an emergency situation when he is mass producing as fast as he can they will be rather pitiful, stupid, with paper-thin armor and the shooting accuracy of a blind man but the strategy under those cases are to get bodies out there to get in the enemy's way, they arent likely to live long anyhow. And just maybe the plan will have time to come to fruition. In the case of the "emergency mass assembly line" version. Dont take off its helmet. Given the lack of time and energy, the cloned Dave will probably look like the cast of Deliverance......5 inbred generations later. In any case generally at any given time the hideout will have Dave and 3-4 of his elite "99% clones" hanging around. (Dave doesnt want the enemy to know who the real "Dave" is.) Dave tends to hang around Henry given their common "universe". Note: Optional: The rest of the team might not know which is the real Dave at any given time.

How long can an honest otaku do some modeling done with all theas...Warsies and Treckies and devoties to simpiler american comics around. Mick Godspot was an otaku, and proud of it. And he waisted most of this convention explaning to a fat Darth Maul wantabee (Henry the Sith) why Gundam and Yamato and Macross were better space opra than Star Wars and Star Treck would ever be. He finaly goten some piece with the coment "Han shot first" and returned to his green plastic homemaid Zaku modle he was working on when the event happoned. Now he is Leader Deschar, and his modle became a huge car size plastic 'robot' he named the Green Comit. (His name, btw, is a smashup of Leader Deslock from Yamato and Char Azubel from Gundum). He tries hard to lead the ComicCons. Henry might have 'de force', but he has a robot which oboys his every comand. Litery...it realy vocalises 'oboy' when he gives a comand, then obays it.

death tribble Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! Asia Carrera is the Box. She carries an arsenal of weapons concealed in a dimensional portal. There is nothing too outlandish for her to use. CES So that's what she is doing nowadays..... But the villain name as well might cause her problems. Anyway Jane Westlake had only gone to the Con to shut up th Nerd Faction at school. She lost a bet and so had to go in costume. Now Jane being Jane is not going to scrimp on a costume and she is not going to just appear in a bikini as you know that is too cheap. She also did research and settled on Star Sapphire. So when the event changed her she got the powers of a Star Sapphire. She was completely overwhelmed by the power and tried to do too much too soon. This ended in her shooting into the sky and falling to earth in a pool. Thus when the group founded she followed the lead of the others. But when she has mastered her powers then watch out Sapphire Star will be a name to watch. New Team: I posted this in the Hero Thread a bit back. What I want are four cousins between 16 and 25 (at most) of White Sheep who are nieces and nephews of Visgoth and his wife. They are not as powerful on their own as their Uncle (a brick) or White Sheep's energy powers but with the villainous family connections they are used to working as a team. They are Youth in Revolt. Note: DO NOT NAME White Sheep's mother or sister, Thank You. White Sheep It is difficult growing up and meeting the expectations of friends and family. Now imagine what it is like when friends and family are supervillains or involved in organised crime. 'Cylde Bremmer' put on a costume and fought petty criminals like muggers but it was when he stopped a The Capone Gang, a bunch who dressed up like 20-30s gangsters and drove around in similar cars, single handidly that his troubles really began. As he was being interviewed on TV his dad and some of the extended family turned up. Visgoth angrily asked his son just what he was playing at, why he was not attacking police officers and just why he was not making off with the loot. 'Clyde' defended his actions despite the derision of his cousins and the weary head shakes of his dad's cousin the villainous Dr Nymax!. Visgoth promptly grounded his son until such time as he could get a good mind controller to bring the boy to his senses. However he was rescued and now serves publicly with the Rebels. One of the things he dreads is Mum turning up to collect him or his sister coming by for a visit. While his dad might leave the others alive, the ladies will not. 'Clyde' got saddled with the name White Sheep after some of the catcalls he received from his extended family when confronted on TV. He has higher than average strength, endurance and agility, better than average combat skills but nowhere in the region of a good martial artist and a suite of energy powers which he can do various tricks with.

steriaca Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! The Ram is a member of the Youth in Revoult, and this related to White Sheep. A minor brick, he dosen't meser up to the Vizgoth in strength and resistance, but is a sturdy climber, fast runner, and wears a hard horned helmit to lierly ram his victoms off buildings and such. And he is more than a match, strength wise, to White Sheep. He hates eveyone, especaly his goodie-goodie cousand. He can't wait to ram him off a bridge or something.

Of course, her spells aren't quite as accurate (or as permanent) as she'd like. But, on the other hand, threatening to turn her idiot cousins into slugs does keep them in line if they don't listen to her obvious brilliance. She still hopes to turn White Sheep permanently into his namesake -- and then roast him up with a side of mint jelly. That's 4.

SKJAM! Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! The Pog-Meister Remember pogs? No? Well, that isn't exactly a surprise. They came and went in a year or two. But while they were hot, Mark Mance was a master of the games that used pogs. Being a petty criminal as well, Mark came up with the idea of becoming a pog-themed supervillain. He commissioned a gadgeteer to create a variety of specialized combat pogs, and robbed a bank to pay the genius off. Unfortunately for him, Mark was arrested after he made the payment, but before he took delivery of the costume and weapons. He just recently got out of prison, and since his only asset was his never-used gimmicks, he bowed to the inevitable and became the Pog-Meister. His only consolation is that he's not, as far as he's concerned, the lamest member of the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Re: Create a Villain Theme Team! Tamagotchi Tama-Gochi Bandai is his real name. It was no problem as long as he lived in in Japan, but it got problem when his faimily moved to the united states. If they hadn't picked on him because of it, they had picked on him because he was a genius nerd. When he grew up he had it: He made a Red/White costume (ajar to the bandai logo) and somehow got a mini computer that looks like a Tamagotchi without buttons. It is as close to the real deal Tamagotchi as Foxbat to being effective: It's a has a Mind Machine Interface that works just by holding it (but is configured to onyl work with Tami), has a seemingly childish A.I. and most importantly, has a low-ranged Machine/Machine Interface. That means he (and to a lesser extend the A.I.) can use it to manipulate computers, power armors adn other modern tech on range - no physical connection nessesary. It's also able to detect technology that is vulnerable to it's powers. The A.I. has a childisch crush on Electro-Buggieboo and will not allow his "master" to hack him.

We wanted four cousins. You did three so that is ok. Both Creep and Peep can stay as Cygnia did No 4. That 70s Guy This is not is real name nor his supervillain name but that's what all the media calls him. He wears Deeley Boppers and more offensively flaired trousers which has proven his downfall on more than one occassion, he sports an afro and an open neck shirt with a huge medallion. He goes round on Roller Skates and not roller blades and his clothes are a multi coloured abomination which you could only get away with in the 70s. And he listens to Disco exclusively. He likes to be called Macho Man but most people will not call him that. For an idiot he is quite dextrous as he can dance and kick Cossack style while on the skates. He does not really get the others at times but he thinks they are losers so he helps them in their crime careers. NOTE: Several of the group think they are the leader when really none of them are. ore or less they go with the flow. QUESTION To EVERYONE: We have a lot of material on the Hero and Villain threads that cross reference each other. I am going to do a thread where I expand on White Sheep's family and all of the occurances of Dr Nymax!. However other people are also referencing various things repeatedly so is there any interest in having a thread which collates this and expands on some of the information to which we can all contribute ?

North, East, South and West. They can have other Supervillain names but as part of the Crew they use the four directions. The direction should have some bearing to where they are from originally in the world. I'll take an easy one. Paul duPont was born on Bathurst Island in northern Canada, the son of Arctic scientist/explorers who waited too long and got trapped on the island in a blizzard. Regularly neglected by his parents, he became bitter and easily upset, turning to a life of petty crime as a teen. When his magnetic powers developed in his late teens, he became a budding supervillain (MagPole), though he didn't have a lot of success despite having a reasonable amount of power. When approached to join the Compass Crew, he took the name North Pole, though he chafes a little at comments that the geographic and magnetic north poles are not the same thing. His compatriots in the Crew have helped Paul develop new tactics and use his powers in interesting (and tactically useful) ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
