  2. Jack in the Green Jack is a plant manipulator able to rapidly grow plants he is in contact with his costume is composed of foliage and vines by manipulating the plants he can enhance his strength effective armor. he's able to create vine tendrils for several different effects swinging entangling and creating defensive barriers. he carries seeds of a variety of plants performing tricks like growing large trees in an instant producing soporific spore clouds thorny bushes etc. while the forester is the surveillance expert in a suitably wild area jack's plant armor offers extremely effective camouflage admittedly in urban areas the opposite is usually true with him looking like a walking topiary. (play style think Spider-man meets Swamp thing)
  3. I usually refer to these as Nerf bricks they serve the same role as a classic brick soaking damage for others but unlike the classic brick they don't have the high strength to do high damage thus Nerf
  4. Totategumo Yoshio Inaba is a defensive and tactical fighter a former JSDF special forces sniper until he was wounded by super powered terrorist causing his rifle to explode with a thought he lost his right eye most of the vision in his left his right arm from the elbow and serious facial scaring. he would spend the next 2 years undergoing multiple surgeries and recovering as part of the process his Physical therapist convinced him to take up archery to help him develop his off hand dexterity coordination and strength. his previous experience as a sniper allowed him to develop his skill rapidly until he found himself representing japan in the special Olympics and winning the Gold. His story was taken up by the media which resulted in a large Industrial company approachinghim to be a test patient for an advanced cybernetics system they where developing. he was an excellent candidate for the program and his Right eye was replaced with an advanced Cybernetic offering multiple vision modes and telescopic vision (the damage to his left having mostly been healed/repaired) his right arm was replaced with a prosthetic limb that not only had full dexterity but beyond human strength. his recovery was shown off at a company press conference when his life would change again three super villains attacked to kidnap the projects Lead scientist he had his bow and a quiver full of arrows though in the end he only required three well aimed shots to put down all three despite their powers. The company saw an opportunity to create their own superhero and Yoshio saw an opportunity to serve his country once more. Now as Totategumo The Trapdoor spider he is the tactical specialist of the team mostly know for his bow and selection of specialized arrows his real secret is his gift for preparing the battle field using a combination of grenades mines and his smart camouflage coat that allows him to control the battlefield striking from ambush and guiding enemies away from civilians and towards his more straight forward team mates.
  5. Scarlet Star Samurai A popular multi media title Scarlet Star Samurai is eponymous main character A holographic techno magic girl defending a futuristic Japanese space station. The latest version of the Anime was about to Launch so most people thought it was Just a Publicity stunt when the Holographic Display facing the famous Shibuya Crossing in Tokyo stepped down from the plinth and stopped a speeding car that was about to plow into the pedestrians with a holographic shield. S3 or Akasuki Hoshi wasn't a publicity stunt in fact she doesn't know what she is she has all the memories of her fictional counterpart a dead girl resurrected by her scientist father in the form of a hard light hologram generated by a floating drone she has been welcomed by the Seven samurai while she tries to work out where she came from bet that another dimension where her character is real or created by some super-scientist Otaku. She lives as a normal school student to learn about modern Japan while using her powers to defend it and the world. her powers are all based around her hard light holograms which protect her core can make energy shields from personal to the size of bus she's also able to make incredibly sharp blades usually Katanas but she can manifest any kind of historic weapon she also can make energy beams with a power range from a beanbag round to a main battle tank mostly she will make her arm into an energy weapon but it just depends how she's feeling sometimes she does Eye beams or Kamehameha/ spirit ball style attacks. her holographic body allows her to change everything about her appearance while she mostly uses it to have a constantly changing range of Kawaii outfits when the team needs an infiltrator she can duplicate anyone's appearance or even create energy shields that disguise whole areas. she's also a skilled hacker able to interface with most unshielded technology and control it.
  6. I think the one that stayed in my head most was B' Li an alien Cephalopod Space Pirate pilot and weapons Who Uses six guns at once he's the youngest member of the crew so he's called the KID the human crew member replicated a Stetson for him Code name Mr. Wolf or Big Bad Wolf has a partner who dresses like a lumber jack and carries an axe and helps him fake his death to esc ape when he needs to do the brush off
  7. I'm a sucker for these so my Uk hero stuff is full of them. The Department of Administrative Affairs is the government office responsible for all extra normal activity in the UK . It's nice and nebulous and of course is stolen from the classic sitcom Yes Minister. I also Have a unkillable scottish vigilante called Glasgow Kiss Blackpool's super hero is The Illuminator. Brighton's is Promenade London's big villain is a insane super genius former army chaplain aka the White Chaplain his gang includes the density mimic enforcer Ton O Brix, Their armorer Mr Maxwell Smith and His Silver Hammer and Sword wielding assassin Edgeware
  8. Gigantes Stefan Xenophontos is a Greek ex-pat super hero he grew up in one of the small villages that serve the many monasteries on mount Athos and is a devout Orthodox Christian who is eager to do good in the world. he joined the Musketeers as their muscle A size manipulator he is able to shift not only his size but objects he's holding allows him to turn tiny pebbles into huge boulders. Will someone do a fourth new member who might perhaps pick a fight with all of the originals?
  9. Brutish Summer-time Cyrus Samson is the British super criminal bruiser known as Brutish Summer-Time has the ability to absorb sunlight and turn it into temporary muscle mass going from a skinny wimp to a muscular beyond body builder level strongman at will. activating his powers releases a blinding blast of sunlight and he glows enough to make his features hard to see and to dazzle most video cameras. Unfortunately for Cyrus he only has a limited store of energy and will burn through it quickly outside of direct sunlight. With the British weather being what it is he either has to spend a lot of time on a sunbed between crimes or do most of his work abroad which resulted in him joining Unseasonable weather for their international connections.
  10. Hyperjump Oan Da-Lam was a High speed Courier on the city world of Nu-Yalk. Using semi legal thrust bikes, Ion-Boost skates or Hyper Parkour skills the Courier underground got things to where they needed to go in a planet spanning city in near permanent gridlock. Da-lam needed to be faster to get the cybernetic speed upgrades needed for better jobs and took a loan from organized crime paying them back by doing a few side deliveries. you deliver one murder weapon that's used to assassinate the local district Governor and next thing you know your on your way to Ry-Ker 5 the prison moon. Getting busted out by the jailbreaker was great and Oan is enjoying his time on a planet with actual nature. A hyper-Parkourist with cybernetic enhancements that give him Hypersonic speed the ability to run on any surface and selective gravity manipulation he can get anywhere and fast. he has a hyperactive personality and is constantly developing new obsessions with earth fads and touring natural wonders at super speed. so I guess that's Six Next team UNSEASONABLE WEATHER 5 Weather themed villains from unexpected places.
  11. and thinking about Africa The short Iklawa version of the assegai spear used by Shaka Zulu would be ideal cuts stabs can be thrown in a pinch more useable in a tight space than even a gladius style short sword with a bit more range you could even add combined with the heavy club and the small buckler style of Nguni shield used in traditional stick fighting you've got a pretty solid selection of tools for any dungeon fight. https://www.militaria-history.co.uk/articles/weapons-of-the-zulu. Roman Legionary gear which was similar in concept could work too while a full size Scutum is going to be unwieldy in together dungeons it would be an excellent defense in a tighter space or the smaller 3ft circumference Parma would be more a maneuverable but reduce coverage. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parma_(shield). the gladius is idea short enough to use anywhere robust and useable both for stabbing and chopping the Plumbatae (lead weighted throwing darts) carried attached to the shield area simple range weapon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parma_(shield) and Lorica armor is a good compromise in terms of mobility and defense.
  12. a magic/tech size changing one would be even better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7B2SsJOAx0 It could also be improved by adding a lantern/glow stone etc. like a less extremes version of the lantern shields https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGnqhj3qx-A https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_shield
  13. I meant Flexible as in Multi Purpose. Although I did have one Flexible weapon in mind and not the bull whip no matter what certain archeologists and vampire hunters might say. I'm thinking of the The Meteor hammer a heavier version of the Rope Dart https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteor_hammer https://youtu.be/ElMET8oSyAU not so much as a weapon although in the right circumstances it is probably very useful for crowd control and it has the ability to be useful at all ranges close up it can be used like a morning star and with enough room to generate momentum it can be extremely dangerous out to 6 meters. I think it's main utility is as a tool checking for and setting of traps activating buttons breaking things at a distance. it can also be used as a grapple both for pulling objects or people to you or for climbing. By changing the weight you can perform other tasks. a flaming head can be used to start fires, illuminate an area while you maintain a safe distance or just fight things that are vulnerable to fire. equally a Thurible/censer full of incense or holy water etc. might be useful against the undead or it could be used to spread poisons/drugs. its also a easily improvised weapon if you've trained with one you can make one just about anywhere you just need between 3 and 20 ft of cordage and something heavy and no good adventurer goes anywhere without a rope or at least a towel he can turn into one.
  14. So I've been reading a lot of Lit-Rpg watching a load of Isekai anime and found my self thinking about what weapons would be carried by Dungeon Delvers. The idea that standard medieval arms would be used seems silly because weapons are always adapted to the environment they are used in. Bearing that in mind what are the key features of a dungeon. * Variable terrain you're unlikely to be fighting in a single type of space from narrow to wide open caverns water heights flexibility is key. *Utility a weapon that only does one thing is just extra weight in situations where it isn't useable. Attacks can come from any direction dungeons are 3 dimensional battlefields and you need to be able to attack and defend in all directions. * Variable opponents not just weapons and defenses but size speed and modes of attack a weapon only suitable for human size/strength opponents will limit your responses to larger and smaller enemies a weapon designed for charging beasts will be useless against a horde of goblins. I'm going to add a few separate posts for historic weapons I think would make sense. The Spiked pavise The version used in this video The Spiked pavise The version Seems ideal for a dungeoneer usable in a tight space the spike gives you a weapon even in a low corridor offers defense and attacks in multiple directions. Piercing and bludgeoning damage depending opponents vulnerabilities can be jammed into the ground to set up a defensive emplacement break up enemy formations or allow spell casters and other range weapons users to take cover between attacks.
