SpaceknightFenix Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Let's do something only a bit different, instead of trying to get the absolute basics of the heroes in question within 250 points. Let's try to build the heroes with their most extreme feats in considerations. Rules: 1) It has to be able to do the most ludicrous things displayed by the characters in all of their published articles. 2) You do not have to buy their skills. 3) It doesn't necessarily have to be 250 points, but you do have to try to fit them in 250 points. If a power or attribute shoves them over, don't sweat it. And, most importantly: 4) Have fun, if it gets too frustrating, post what you've got, and maybe someone will pick it up from there. I know Massey's already posted his 250 Superman, that's a very good example, it's a bit shy, but he's got bigger versions that do cover the remainder of his powers. Make those points scream.

SpaceknightFenix Posted April 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Sure, plenty of heroes, it's an open invite for anyone who wants to make a character. They have to try to get as close to their demonstrated abilities as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archer Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 I started working on this but I've gotten involved in other things which are going to eat up my time for today and maybe beyond that. The Reverse-Flash has never been reverse enough for my tastes. I started working on the elemental control and didn't finish. Obviously the Succor is going to make up for a lot of the deficiency in spending on base stats. Anyway, none of this is under the character's control, it all just happens. If there's enough free points, I'd look into giving the powers completely invisible advantage.

I'm pretty sure this is the DCAU Superman at the start of his career. Others, who will go unnamed, did not appreciate the fact that Massie used 250 points in disads, but no actual character points, making this technically a 0-point character.
