Christopher R Taylor Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Hopefully soon Diamond will have assignments for people. I'd like to see this ready for playtest by the end of next month and on the "shelf" before summer. Incidentally, that build of Brick is good but has some basic problems. Growth and Density Increase are temporary powers in 6th edition, they are not meant to represent bigger and denser. You use various powers that give the effects and physical complications for the drawbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 OK here's the first PC offering with background, Ace! Each of these characters has been designed to be as flexible as possible in terms of gender and ethnicity, so the player can tailor the result to their wishes. My idea is to have a double-sided card for each character, the male version on one side, the female on the other (with illustrations). Ace is the Hawkeye/Gambit type, with shades of Bullseye. Ace can pick up and throw anything, charging it up for a variety of effects and powers when it hits. He can even charge up his fists to hit very hard or generate a kinetic field to protect and move more swiftly across the ground. Ace is a baseball-themed character.

Waiting for dissection, Ace discovered the power to charge up items and throw them to explode. Managing to escape the holding cell, Ace discovered those powerful abilities were able to do much more than simply blow things up. Ace's fortunes have turned, but the VIPER experiments and attempts to control their subjects have made Ace vulnerable to effects that weaken willpower. Now VIPER hunts Ace to recapture one of their few successful experiments, as Ace fights evil and injustice wherever it is found. Male version: Ace was a wash in minor leagues because he didn't have anything besides a great arm - no fielding ability, no team spirit. Determined to make it as a pitcher, he ended up living in a flophouse staying alive with his childhood hobby of stage magic, and was caught up by a VIPER team. Now, Ace combines his pitching skill and powers to fight against the kind of criminals that captured him and to prove his skill to the world. Female Version: Ace was a skilled softball pitcher and a rising National Pro Fastpitch pitcher who tried to break into Major League Baseball after a few games where she shut out several AA Franchise teams in the 5-inning exhibition games. But she was turned away flat by every major league team and refused to go back to NPF a failure. finally on her own and surviving on her childhood hobby of stage magic, she was at a shelter when grabbed by VIPER. Now, Ace combines her pitching skill and powers to fight against the kind of criminals that captured her, and to prove she's good enough for the big show.

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 OK I'm going to start posting more polished versions of characters with backgrounds, hopefully for people to examine and help tweak. When art is done for them, that will be posted, too. I want to start tomorrow and post one a day. I really would appreciate feedback and information. For example, Ace has a DOT effect, which is mostly a GM problem, but maybe not appropriate for a starting character in a tutorial game.

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 VULCAN Vulcan is the Thor equivalent, the 'god' with a hammer. In this case, I've gone with the Roman god of blacksmithing, construction, etc. Vulcan built all the weapons and armor that the other gods use. As a punishment for her arrogance and toying with people, Jupiter forced Venus to marry the ugly dwarf but she was constantly stepping out on him. Now whatever blacksmith holds his hammer and speaks the name of Vulcan transformed into him. ALL VERSIONS: Vulcan was a modestly successful blacksmith who sought greater recognition and success, and competed on a reality show but lost when their equipment failed. Frustrated with the humiliation and failure, the smith who became Vulcan began searching for legendary, ancient tools that could enhance their skill and not fail them. Following on slim leads and rumors, the hammer of Vulcan was found on a shipwreck off Malta, with the name of the god written on the side of the hammer hidden in clever designs. By calling on the name of Vulcan, the blacksmith transforms into the mighty hero. VULCAN'S HISTORY: Frustrated with his wayward bride, Vulcan created a set of manacles to hold her at home when he was away working. Humiliated and outraged with this treatment, Venus appealed to Diana, and the two of them created a spell that would bind Vulcan to his hammer that he'd created this prison with, one that caused him to be trapped within it until a mortal held it and called upon him. Now Vulcan can only be free, but still controlled by the personality of the mortal that frees him, when the hammer is used. FEMALE STORY: As a female blacksmith, its hard to get respect and trust for her work. After failing on the reality show, she was even more determined to prove herself and to inspire other women to take up the craft. Now she's incredibly capable as a blacksmith with Vulcan's hammer, but has found a new calling: fighting evil with the immense power of Vulcan, even if she has to turn into a brutish male in the process. MALE STORY: The hammer of Vulcan increased his skill and quality of work incredibly, but he became disillusioned with the craft when it came so easily, and found a new calling - fighting for the innocent and weak with the power of Vulcan.

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 BEHEMOTH This is the Hulk equivalent, the big bruiser that's tough and strong and not a lot else. I build in some "brick tricks" which might be a little complicated for a starter, but it allows players to pull off basic conceptual stuff without the GM needing to wing it or figure it out. Behemoth isn't built to be able to punch the Pentagon to the moon, but able to lift 50 tons. I prefer this kind of build for bricks: not huge damage, but big strength tricks. This is also the character I have the least background and concept worked out for. Just: Behemoth Smash. ALL VERSIONS: Behemoth is a monster, a huge brute that stands 8 feet all and five feet across. A gigantic figure, Behemoth is gentle as a lamb with animals, and has a gift for training especially large creatures and works at a zoo. Behemoth wasn't always this way, it began with puberty, growing bigger and stronger and changing color until by age 18 it was clear that this was no ordinary person. Now, the Behemoth tries to protect those in danger, using tremendous strength and durability to stand in the place of others, when danger strikes. FEMALE VERSION: It is never easy growing up a teenage girl, but when you're six feet tall and 200 pounds at age 13, its even more difficult. By high school, She no longer even had normal skin, and was over seven feet tall. Able to lift a car, she found that the teasing had gone away, but she wasn't able to attend a normal school. At the brink of giving everything up, she ran into a Rhinoceros on a bridge, and was able to talk the creature down, calming it so it could be returned to the zoo where an attack by supervillains had broken it out. Now, she splits her time between working with animals at the zoo and fighting crime. MALE VERSION: At first, being bigger and stronger than everyone else was great. A star football player in middle school, he soon found that he was getting a little too strong and eventually no school even let him compete. Unable to even attend normal school and frightening ordinary people, the Behemoth was moved to the country to live with relatives. There, he found that he was able to work with the ranch animals and train them far better than others, and when a supervillain crashed their escape vehicle in the nearby park, the Behemoth saved the day and found that he liked the feeling of helping others.

Deadman Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Thought I would share a couple of the ideas coming out of my head on Heromachine. I am not an actual artist but I play one on HM. You've already seen Vulcan...here are a few others... Toxxyn Ace Behemoth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted April 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 TOXXYN OK, so its a bit of an Image/Iron Age 90's -name, but it has some charm and should appeal to some players pretty well. Toxxyn is the Spider-Man type, the agile fast sort. I built Toxxyn around a Jumping Spider as per the suggestion of Steriaca and so no webs but lots of jumping ability, and a poison-concept physical attack so its a spider concept without being a Spidey clone (and a lot less complex than the web build). Toxxyn is built to be able to fall long distances safely (that 30 PD plus breakfall = can fall from orbit safely) and has 360-degree vision instead of spider sense. Hit hits hard (9d6) but can do the 5d6 poison-based AVAD as well. ALL STORY: Toxxyn was a Taxi Driver who was driving a strange guy in an obvious disguise through The City when the fare opened up his briefcase and out rushed this green smoke that filled the cab. The fare laughed and shouted something about how they were all going to pay, then passed out. Toxxyn pulled over and bailed out of the car, but felt no ill effects. It turned out that the fare was a mad scientist who meant to set off a chemical attack to punish the City for refusing Toxxyn a grant, but the spider venom-based bio weapon was not properly designed and seemed to have no effect. However, it did do something: it activated Toxxyn's latent genetic abilities, and gave the character fantastic jumping spider powers. Now, Toxxyn uses their amazing powers to fight crime in a spectacular manner. Unfortunately, early in Toxxyn's crime fighting career, while chasing a criminal he fell to his death just as Toxxyn was reaching for him, and cops below thought he pushed the wretch off the building. NOw, cops and many on the street think Toxxyn is a lethal vigilante, but this character avoids killing at all costs and hates the idea of it. No distinction between male and female stories here.
