Barton Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 Hero Tina Please Tina post a character, it would be fun to see how you see yourself as super.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 LOL. That's an interesting idea, but probably one I won't have time to tackle anytime soon. Reminds me of an odd request on the old message boards, back about May/June 2002, where someone wanted HERO System stats for me, personally. He never did say why, that I recall, leaving me with a disturbed ominous feeling of voodoo doll-type magic using game character sheets....

Lord Liaden Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 If not a writeup, maybe just a character concept? From his avatar, I'd be willing to guess which way Ben Seeman would go. For Steve Long, I'm figuring something between the Harbinger of Justice and a super-powered lawyer, and I'm not sure which one would be scarier.

Hermit Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 Given his love of things apish and aquatic, I wonder if Darren might not be best shown as some brooding undersea lord ready to unleash his "army of sinister sea monkeys!" upon an unsuspecting Earth For some reason, I always picture poor Ben with a hunch on his back... "Fix the forums igor!" *Whipsounds* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 Why just limit it to the staff? All the posters should do such a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 lol... my buddies and i used to spend far too much time talking about this sort of thing when i was in college... sort of a "what if... you had superpowers." i had two powers one. there was this issue of WildC.A.T.s (i know, i know... boo... hiss... Image bad...). it had Grifter (a whatchamacallit... gun bunny guy...) clinging to the wing of a jet plane hurtling through the air. Grifter, in desperate straits, lights a cigarette... i mean, Mach whatever and this clown pulls out a smoke, then his lighter, flicks his 'bic,' and lights his cigarette. (i imagine if i were in such circumstances i'd need a smoke break too). so anyway, i smoked, had a zippo, in a gale it wouldn't light -- heck man, it wouldn't light the first time in a stiff breeze -- and my first power was the ability to light a cigarette under any circumstance. we copped out and made it a Transform (unlit cigarette into lit cigarette), No Range... if i recall correctly. two. so i have an abnormally long torso... i know, i know... you ask: 'how does anyone notice an abnormally long torso?" well let me tell you. shirts are either too big in the chest and shoulders, and too long in the arms; or they're too short and constantly come un-tucked. (it's a burden i try to bear bravely, chin up and out and with a stiff upper lip.) anyway: it's something like .25" Stretching, Always On, Torso Only, No Velocity Damage, No Indirect, etc., etc. and as for the name... Torso Man, the Human Cigarette Lighter. Able to light people's cigarettes, regardless of inclement weather or catastrophic circumstance, without struggling too hard to reach, so long as the person was only a foot or two away.

Guest Thunder Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 voodoo character sheets Well steve it has nothing to do with voodoo this time. I was just sitting here bored at work and decided it would be kind of cool to get an insight of how the poeple who created the game that I like so much veiw themselves. Unable until this coming year to go to any conventions do to either lack of time off or lack of money I haven't got a chance to meet the people who have been producing this game that I've been playing since the 80's.

Agent Escafarc Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 If I had super powers they would be : Telepathy Teleportaion Du[plication N-Ray Vision and Precognition Because it always seems that I end up working for or with people who think I should be able to do all that:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Re: Challenge to the staff of hero games Originally posted by Thunder I challenge you to create Hero's or villians that in your opinion best fits you. Point total unemportant as long as it fits how you would veiw yourself as a meta human, cyborg, alien, etc. If they do I beleive there should be some limitation. 1 post = 1 character point. Or they write themselves up as a standard super and then add their post count as bonus points. Sounds fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Long Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 For Steve Long, I'm figuring something between the Harbinger of Justice and a super-powered lawyer, and I'm not sure which one would be scarier. I had a superpowered lawyer-commando character in a sort of Illuminati-inspired campaign once. Lots of fun. One adventure I had to parachute into this guarded compound to serve a subpoena on the leader of a cult of Marilyn Monroe look-alike assassins. I had a camo uniform in pinstripe so I could blend effortlessly into crowds of businessmen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Or should we call you by your REAL NAME, you fiend! Post your sheet, Timothy G. Gersh! Sorry, that's only a picture. Unravel the clue and you'll see who that character (and the others depicted with him) was jokingly supposed to be -- only that particular victim neatly turned the tables on me.

Steve Long Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 What were the stats given for Steve in CHampions 3-D ??? LOL. Sorry, I'm not in there. There's a picture of Rob Bell, who was Line Developer at the time, but that's as close as it comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Then I think we need to get together as a group and build Steve. I suggest... Life Support: Never Sleeps PS: Shyster Speed Reading x100 +10 DEX only for typing Social Limitation: No Life DNPC: Lil' Ben Hatred of LoTR movies Rival: Peter Jackson, 8-, Rival not aware of rivalry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and don't forget his Duplication. -- Pteryx It's confirmed in the weekly chat that he keeps his production schedule going through a combination of not sleeping and not having a life. Duplication with an invisible power effect. Nobody know's there are two or more of him! Well, I guess the dupes would have to have invis for that to work.

Lord Liaden Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Re: Steve's write up additional Originally posted by Barton Follower: Tina the Office Goodess (total point cost is too high to calculate [he,he,he]) I think Tina officially counts as Darren Watts's follower. Besides, she and Steve are at opposite sides of the continent. I also think that Tina would blow away the other contestants in the "Miss Champions Universe" pageant.
