    Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

     

    Witchhunter again:

     

    Anne-Ellen (Who is still slightly naive and a professional freelance Entertainer ) is send to recruit a new member for the group whom she has already seen in her dreams. They meet at a dock where both Characters are mysteriously drawn to.

    Enter: Rene Deveraux mild mannered Scholar ( and Hermetic Wizard).....

     

    Anne-Ellen (quite loudly): You ! I have seen you in my dreams........

    Rene (Who had similiar dreams, and recognized her): Madame, please.....(whispering) Not here!

     

    Listening Sailors and Fishermen: :eg::doi:

     

    Anne-Ellen: But I have seen you really! In my Dreams!

    Rene slowly backing away: In your dreams mademoiselle sure.....

    Anne-Ellen: But I really ......

    Rene turns around and walks away.

     

    The Witchhunters finally asemble and start talking, introducing each other:

     

    Anne-Ellen: You might call me by my nome de guerre: Asmodee.....

    Every Witchhunter in the room: :bmk::bmk::bmk::bmk:

     

    (She survived.)

    Background/History

     

    Maria Corelli ne Poggiali was born 1979 in Borgio Maggiore (a muncipalitie of San Marino).^^Nothing implicated that she was born with a latent mutation. She had the usual backround for a girl from the mountains. She worked in the adriatic resort Hotels during the Summer and lived with her family during the Winter.^^In 1999 a Quake hit the Area she was living at and Marias power manifested. Maria worked like a maniac to help until local forces came to her relief.^^It was by later consensus decided that her powers were a miracle granted by San Martino, the local patron saint, a stonemason. (A scientific examination proofed her mutant status, but the locals disregard this.)^^Maria tried to continue living as before but her public exposure during her rescue work made that virtually imposible.^^Maria lived nearly as a Hermit for a year, until she met her future Husband Carlo Corelli the owner of a local quarry while hiking. Carlo wanted to hire Maria at the beginning only for her powers but the two fell gradually in love and married after a year long stormy relationship.

     

    Personality/Motivation

     

    Maria is very temperamental, but not convinced that her powers make her special. She is trying to live a normal live, but will do what she deems necessary. Maria is not overtly thrilled with the decission of her Countrymen that her powers are a divine blessing, but she remains a devout catholic.

     

    Quote

     

    Hang on I am comming to help you !

     

    Powers/Tactics

     

    Maria is very strong and has some sort of power over earth and stone, that might one day be developed in some sort of Earth-Powers. She mostly relies on her strength and toughness.^^Maria was never really in a superfight.^^She does a lot of rescue work.

     

    Campaign Use

    Maria is a low powered brick. She is mostly made to show that not everybody with powers wants to dress colorfully and knock over banks or save the world.

     

     

     

    Appearance

     

    A tiny italian woman, with black hair and warm brown eyes. When doing rescue work she wears a stout white overall with the Red Cross symbol.^^Privately she wears nice trendy clothes.

    Having never been to Europe, let alone San Moreno, I'd say I would be jealous.

     

    No reason to be jealous. Vacationing in Italy is as natural to a german as vacationing in Florida to a American (suposedly). :D

     

    A Brick from San Marino ?

     

    Thats very fitting.

    It is their main Export.

    A female brick it shall be.

    Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

     

    Playing Witchhunter:

    We had a grizzeled old german Merc called the "Magdeburger" and his "Daughter" a french freelance "Entertainer" Anne Ellen, who might be slightly naive.......

     

    We were hunting after a Demon and got a list of all it´s nasty traits, among them:" He made women paint their faces and......"

     

    The Magdeburger: "Daughter" don´t you dare to ask for make up tips!

  14. Adventure Ideas For The Late 80s And The Berlin Wall

    in Champions

    Re: Adventure Ideas For The Late 80s And The Berlin Wall

     

    Hmmm... how about:

     

    The new student at school was a former East Berliner whose mother escaped with him to the West. Now he needs the teen heroes' help to rescue his father, an important East German scientist, before the powers-that-soon-won't-be use him in some nefarious plot that takes advantage of the chaos as the Wall crumbles. Ideas of the plot could be: stealing a tac nuke or some chemical or biological weapons to sell to the highest bidder; sneaking out an injured alien that crashed in East Germany; or spiriting away a SuperSoldier formula that the East Germans just perfected and someone wants to use to create his own personal army.

     

    Alternately, the kid's dad could be a spy, with lots of information that one side wants to use and the other side wishes to suppress, and the kid's dad just wants to get out with his head intact.

     

    The Border had been officially opened a couple of weeks before that. It is relative unlikely that somebody could have moved to the states fast enough to learn english and been intducted (sp?) into High School live deep enough to get a bunch of Teen´s to help him. Of course there is always the possibility that his/hers part of the family had fled the DDR, but why go to the USof A if the BRD is way closer?

    Sorry pretty unrealistic, even for comics.

    Re: History question

     

    It seems like their Copyright belongs to the Comic Francise now. (Marksman, Flare and Giant´s)

    Hence they are no longer mentioned.

     

    Oh Solitaire is still around these Days ( I think). She just changed her name into Witchcraft.

    Re: Destroyers Rewrite??

     

    There is no Iron in that Ronins name. He has slightly boosted Attributes a KA (Sword), a Jiu Jutsu Package, some Armor (OIF) and a lot of resistance to mental attacks.

    Nothing really fancy, expect that he is what you want to throw at a overconfident Mentalist:D.......

    Re: Destroyers Rewrite??

     

    For the Samurai Suit there are two possibilities one is a member of the Supervillain Team in Ninja Hero (which I do not have at the moment, so I can not check the Illoustrator.) and whose Name I forgot, think it was Yusu or such.

    The second one, the more likely one, would be Ronin from Enemies for hire. The Interior Pics are by Fredd Gorham. So that seems to be your guy.

    Re: Obscure Elemental Villains

     

    That was my first guess too.

    But there was also a Group in some Australian Game Magazine a couple of years back. I can not remember if they were all Weather powered, but at least one member had Weather Powers (IIRC).

    I can not remember.

    Was his costume really that garish ?

    I remember a black and white picture in forth Edition and Classic Enemies.

    But I can not remember the color descriptions.....
