Re: Very flashy, acrobatic martial arts styles?

Just got done working up a character for a new campaign. Wanted to base him on a modern version of the Tae Kwon Do and gymnastics I studied as a teenager some 30 years ago. (pfft Shotokan (lol) wink & jk)

So I built two packages for him that the GM has approved based on this same threads concept. Keeo in mind he's suppose to be a teenager so I kept it minimal with the idea he learned these skills while travelling with his father a Marine serving first in a French then Brazillian embassy.

Parkour

Acrobatics

Breakfall

Climbing

Fam: Parkour

French (conversational)

Capoeira

Punch

Kick

Dodge

Fam: Capoeira

1 skill level w/Capoeira

Portugese (conversational)

I plan on adding a Parkour skill level and Sacrificial Throw to the Capoeira as it combines well with Breakfall but points were tight and I want to give the character room to improve in both rhese skills as he gets older. I think Familar is more appropriate than a full blown knowledge skill for a teenager and once again points were tight and one doesnt expect much of an in game effect from a in depth knowledge of those skills backgounds. Also as with the other stuff gives the teenager room to grow and improve.

Re: Your favorite champions character

This has to be one of the best stories Ive ever heard. I applaud you sir.

Fun to play would be BRUTE

 

(Stop me if you have heard this origin before). A Rocket Scientist who was would mutate into a superstrong neanderthal Brick. He would run around saying things like BRUTE SMASH. In his human ID he had an INT of 30...

 

Anyways, so one day we are running through Island of Dr D. Dr D is stoped, but he has launched his satalite, he will still win...I pass the GM a paper. He rolls some dice, He describes me walking over ot a council and smashing it. The players at the table were "How did you know which one to destroy"...I observed that I was a rocket scientist..."No your in your Brute form...your an idiot right now"...I politely informed him that I had an int of 30, and a ton of science skills...They informed me AGAIN that I had been in my super strong form and did not have access to those abilities. That is when I told them about a small 5 point psych lim I had "Likes to play elaborite Practical jokes", and that when I got in my Brute form I retained all of my intelegence. It had been a six month campeign up to that point...I, the player, had to dodge Pizza crusts, empty soda cans, and paper plates...

My favorite character was a brick called Mammoth. Quasi-Sasquatch type without all the hang ups.

Re: Needing a Name for a Density Increase Super Heroine

So I'm curious did you come up with a winner?

I'd have went with the name of a mineral/stone/gem which had a sound that was pleasant to the ear as you spoke it. Actually Opal has a nice ring to it

Re: Black Enchantress

Just purchased the Coriolis Effect of Amazon to read the story material. Not much experience with playing anything past 4th edition but looking forward to getting to know how the game works today
