Ever since he was a kid and went to his first movie he would act out the scenes and dream about being the main character in the film. He was always in the school plays and went to movies constantly. His parents who were basic down-to-earth type people hoped that he would grow out of this but were disappointed, but not surprised that he announced he was going to acting school after graduation. They argued with him saying that it was a foolish decision and that he was wasting his time. When they said that he would have to go on his own steam he did just that. He applied for a loan, didn't get it, applied for grant and didn't get that but he kept trying. Eventually he managed to get enough for tuition and worked various odd jobs, (his many PS) and managed to graduate. Than he went to into the world of acting and found that it was alot harder than he thought it would be. He struggled for years but never got a starring role. He spent almost five years doing bit parts, walk-ons, and commercials. He was almost ready to give up and go home when he was discovered some men in some expensive suits right after his last gig. They introduced themselves as P.R. men for a corporation that dealt specifically with personal defense and that they needed a spokeperson. They wanted to interview him for the position if he would also agree to test some of thier equipment. Although Jason was skeptical at first he realized that he was pretty much at the end of his rope and needed something to give him success or just quit. He agreed and went to work. The equipment that he was chosen to test was an experimental bio suit that would conform itself to the wearer body. It would allow him greater strength and durability as well as ability to transform into any clothing that the wearer wanted to be in. Unfortunately while testing the suit it was quickly discovered that once the suit came into contact with the wearer it bonded to him permanently. This of course caused Jason to freak out some and when he found out he quit his job and decided to sue the corporation. Unfortunately as it turned out the corporation was actually a front for Argent and after both S.E.C. and PRIMUS found out the corporate heads were imprisoned and bankruptcy buried them. Suddenly Jason found himself the victim of a corporate power that no longer existed and with no one to sue. This information leaked out to the entertainment industry and he found himself unable to get a job anywhere. Sure he had some superpowers with the suit but was too good a person to be a criminal. Then he heard about American Icon and decided that this was his big break and his only chance to play the ultimate role. Powers/Tactics: Campaign Use:

Re: Why super tech never goes mainstream Some supertech doesn't get reproduced because the guy that built it can no longer reproduce it. Call it some kind of savantism, dumb luck or falling and smacking your head on the toilet. The scientist had a single breakthrough that helped him develop the technology. He cannot get it to reproduce so that one instance has become pricelss. He daren't take it apart to see how it works, because he may never get it back together again. Kind of like Dr. Emmit Brown and the Flux Capicitor from the Back to the Future. Another example is the Professor character from Futurama, he built a StarShip that really should not be working at all because it defies so many physical laws but it does anyway.

Re: Iyo: The Most Underrated Or Underused Character In Comics Ah, CofC. The only game where if you survive long enough you are eventually rewarded with insanity! But in reality I grew to like the feel of Call of Cthulu. The big mistake with the game is that the Keepers are often to willing to toss out the big powerful sanity draining monsters like Cthulu and Nylarthotep. And the combat system is really deadly.

Re: Island of Dr. Destroyer as a one off? If you ask him Steve Long can send you PDF files of the Champions. He did with me. BTW he also sent me a con adventure called the Metallosphere Project that I ran for my first con game at Necronomicon. I worked out pretty well.

Re: Good "Four of a Kind"'s... Actually let think about that. Fighter: Weaponmaster/Brick, armored character with large weapon. Magic-User: Mystic/Energy Blaster, with a magic special effect. Thief: Martial Artist type with amazing stealth-related powers. Does alot of backstabbing-like attacks. Cleric: Brick character with high defenses, a big mace, and some healing powers. There you have it, it is workable.

Re: WWYCD? Quantum Leap moment Ika: "My tribe. Other tribe. Kill other tribe!" Unfortunately, she's a cave girl. Guns and tactics are mostly mysteries to her. LOL

Ok, here goes. Your character is involved in a fight with some time manipulating supervillian. You are fighting him as well as some of his henchmen and right in the middle of the battle you are hit with some kind of temporal energy blast. You black out for a minute and when you come to you find yourself somewhat changed. You dressed in a WWII style uniform and gear. You are in some sort of boat full of soldiers dressed just like you. You are listening to the other guys and figured that somehow you have 'leaped into' the body of Sgt. Mike Reynolds of the U.S. Army. You are in a transport ship. The time is 1944, June 6 and you are arriving at the beaches of Normandy. That's right D-Day! You have your own mind and any knowledge that comes with it but you are in the body of a G.I. You are in command of your own platoon. What do you do soldier?! WHAT DO YOU DO!?

She served Odin and the Norse Gods for years but in time grew ambitious for more. She was a superb warrior, always desiring more victories for which to advance as a choser of the slain. However she still felt a desire for something more. Still she kept her feelings to herself and served admirably in battle against the enemies of Asgard. As time went on she grew more dissatisfied however, and grew to hate the gods for keeping her in servitude. It all came to ahead one day when the new Valkrie Isgerd appeared and became in a short time a more courageous warrior then herself. Grimhild finally fell into rage after the end of a rather glorious battle against some Frost Giants and saw the other warriors praising Isgerd for her slaying of a very large and powerful giant. Grimhild went berserk and attacked her fellow Valkrie with every intention to kill. As the battle raged Isgerd struck a lucky blow and sliced open Grimhild face. Isgerd tried to make peace with her but Grimhild swore revenge and escaped into the icy wasteland. She lived of the land for some time until she ran into some Frost Giants who were raiding a village. She successfully ambused them but instead of killing them she asked to be sent to thier chief. She betrayed her former masters and gave thier cheif tactical infromation about Valhalla's forces. She withheld some pertinent information however which caused heavy causilties on both sides. She then went to the battlefield and took the dead chieftan's Frost Axe and Armor. However she soon realized that she couldn't stay in Asgard forever so she went to a cave she had heard of that could open to other worlds. She went in and found herself in a Norwegian wasteland. She left the cave and has been exploring this new world. Powers/Tactics: Campaign Use:

Re: The Zombie Game I have seen it first at the theatre and then I recently rented it out. It is a good movie, in some ways better than the original in terms of acting and script. Oh and no, they don't ever give an explanation as to how the dead come back to life to eat the living.
