OK, so once again I go to the Hive-mind to get opinions and advice for building out an idea that I had last night. I guess I should start by stating the idea, no? Here goes:
Idea: Legacy of the Past
This may have been presented previously, but I have not seen it.
So the character is a recipient of legacy power, the primary of which is much like Kid Eternity from DC comics, but instead of Summoning a spirit from the past he can summon their skills and/or powers they had.
Example: His grandfather was the one who transferred the power to him and he [grandfather] was a hero in WWII known as the Steel Samurai > martial brick w/armored form. So his first "summon" would be to call upon his grandfather's power and memories, but he has an akashic record of his family line back for 1000+ years that he can call upon.
So, do I go the easy route and VPP it or ???
Thanks,
Dave
