Nadrakas Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Ok...for the sake of my sanity, please somebody tell me where he is located. I've bought the books (Yes...after my computer suffered Death by Lightning, I've upgraded to 6e...though I don't have all of the books - yet.). So...which book is he in? Or does he actually have an actual write-up. Thanks. ~ M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Nighthawk first shows up (to my knowledge) in the 4th edition CHAMPIONS genre book, in 2002. I'm not aware of him appearing (stat-wise) in any other book. Obviously, he's in 4th edition, not 6th edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steriaca Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Nighthawk...I think he means the bird dressed martial arts guy which use to be a Champion. That would be 5th ed...try for his main apperance Champions Universe 5ed, Millimum City, and the Champions Universe updates. I don't think there is a 6ed write up yet.

Obviously, he's in 4th edition, not 6th edition.He is a member of the Champions with a full character sheet in 5E and he is mentioned in official 6E material. Hardly a leftover from 4E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he hasn't appeared in any 6e products, then I'll go off on my own. I was hoping that there was something already written up about him - it would save a lot of time - but (shrug) there's enough about him that I can extrapolate what he is doing in his battle against Viper and crime in general. ~ N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 5e he was replaced by Nighthawk, who could at least hold his own...even if he didn't have the Investigation Skill (Someone Investigating Crimes, especially ones committed by Viper, you'd think this would be an important skill). ~ M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: And was written by Monte Cook and published by Iron Crown before DOJ took over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JmOz Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 There are two characters whose names are similar, Nighthawk and Nightwind, Nighthawk has appeared in 5th edition in Champions and 20 years later, Nightwind appeared in Millennium City and 20 years later IIRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checking. bigbywolfe, although I may have gotten the edition incorrect, you've got something mixed up: I did say "the Champions genre book in 2002" was the book Nighthawk showed up. I didn't say Champions Universe. I am correct in the book title he showed up and date. To try to correct me on a book title and date I didn't mention is odd.

And I made a mistake in referencing CU. 4E Champions was published 1989. You asked "Are you sure it was 5e in 2002". Well yes, we're sure it was 5E in 2002 because 4E was late '80s and early '90s. I wasn't correcting you on the date of his first appearance, I was correcting you on the date of Fourth Edition material which is over a decade older than what you listed.

(It hasn't even been 20 years since Champions 5E was published, it's been 11). Don't have my copy of MC at work with me to look him Nightwind. I don't remember him but the name sounds familiar.

Nadrakas Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Are you sure it was 5e in 2002? I put the copyright date to help figure that out. Just checking. 4e was Seeker -- 1992 (As has been stated later in the post), but 4e for Seeker. 5e for Nighthawk. Forgive any "mistake"...not trying to confuse the issue. Didn't register the "2002" -- I do apologize. ~ M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheQuestionMan Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Nightwind is a Martial Artist training in the ancient Temple Yeng Tao techniques and abilities before it was destroyed. He and a lone Master survived and moved to Millennium City where they teach Martial Arts as a form of Youth Gang Prevention and Nightwind fights crime as a Vigilante style Superhero with twin Pistols augmenting his formidable Martial Arts Skills and Abilities. Some Gadgets and Weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
