Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? Nice one. I feel I need to throw money at Storn.

Re: The Guardians Project - Lets build the original Champions Thanks for that. I thought that that was Starlet on the cover of Enemies.

Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? Don't pansy out. I dug up my DC Heroes just so I could update Proletarian to 6 ED

Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? Good stuff. I particularly like Warner Wolff. My Lex Luthor was named Rex Monday (after RexMundi here on the boards).

Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? I have three pastiches of Superman that I include in almost every game. Paramount - Paramount is the first superhuman of the 20th century. He fought in World War I for the Americans and remained in France after the war. Paramount was not rocketed to Earth, but came from a parallel future. Paramount operated under-the-hood during the war because he was of African ancestry. Omega - The corrupt, spoiled descendant of Paramount. He was raised by a black-bag organization within the United States government as a failsafe weapon and posterboy for 'the American Way'. Proletarian - Karl Ivanovich Kinski was rocketed to Earth from the planet Zenon and landed on a collective farm in the Soviet Union. He is a full blown tribute to Superman, he is honorable, rediculously powerful and represented the 'player on the other side' during my campaigns that I ran when the Soviet Union still existed. He later went on to become president of a post soviet Russia.

A recent discussion in another thread lead to conversations (some offline) regarding the copy/pastiche/tribute/"captain ersatz" character in your campaigns? Quick definitions: A pastiche is a literary work (in this case, a character) that imitates the style of previous work/character. A Captain Ersatz - "This character's design is a mix of legal issues and homage. Just as someone who wants to incorporate a Wal-Mart into a story but can't manage the Product Placement might use "Box Mart," a person who wants to write Captain Original, but can't because a rival comic company owns the trademark, will create Captain Ersatz. " Hyperion (Marvel Comics), Plutonian (Irredeemable), Samaritan (Astro City), Gladiator (Marvel), and Sentry (Marvel) are all Pastiches of Superman (for example). Do you have these types of characters in your campaigns? What are they names and who are they modeled after? Do you want to share their stats?

Re: The Guardians Project - Lets build the original Champions Initial list updated to include Titan and list Dove in a separate entry. I'll start digging into the comics for any details on Dove and/or Starlet.

Re: I can't decide what to run! Which of these sounds fun? This is what I always do. Take your four options. Write a short, high-level overview of each and present them to your players. Let them decide.

Re: "Neat" Pictures Old and charming gets all the girls. Trust me

Re: The cranky thread Thank you. He had a good run.

Re: In Progress From Blackwyrm Games: Mythic America Also that I just read through the thread and realized that half of the suggestions I am making I also made in 2010. So much my my memory.

Re: In Progress From Blackwyrm Games: Mythic America Ok. In all this Blackwyrm Games discussion, I somehow failed to visit the website. I think I'm gonna need a copy of "Gestalt: The Hero Within", Scott. And Terracide and...

Re: The Guardians Project - Lets build the original Champions We've got next to nothing to go on regarding Titan except that he: Is trapped inside his Alien Armor Uses Force Fields Has a high Presence that is only to look heroic (unless that comes from Dove, who we thought might be Tiatn) As a result, he is using no Foci (because he can't take the armor off) and has most of his powers based on Force Fields. For the rest, I went with a slightly twisted view of being trapped in the armor, this suit will not let him die. It gives him an array of skills to help him survive and life support and an on-board computer. This is a rough draft. Constructive criticism is welcome.

Re: The cranky thread My girlfriend's grandfather passed away

Re: The cranky thread 5 Bad Girls > 1 Nice Girl.

Re: In Progress From Blackwyrm Games: Mythic America What a coincidence, the girlfriend and I plan to be there

Re: "Neat" Pictures Storm came up and (as mentioned) superior is the size of North Carolina. He had an issue with his radio and started heading for a nearby island. The outboard motor was damaged. Fortunately people knew he was missing and where he was fishing (which is to say, vaguely) and DNR started checking the Islands with boats and planes (because if he wasn't on an island he was dead). In nautical terms, it's like searching a quarter of the Baltic Sea.

Re: In Progress From Blackwyrm Games: Mythic America I really like the way you're laying this out. I just need you to hurry up so I can buy a copy

Re: "Neat" Pictures My ex-wife's uncle was a sport fisherman in Minnesota and he was shipwrecked for 3 days on an island on Superior. Shipwrecked. On a lake. Yeah.

Re: In Progress From Blackwyrm Games: Mythic America What is the criteria here? Are these other Native American leaders/people of influence? If so I'd like to suggest Tecumseh and his brother Tenskwatawa. Both of them have a great deal of personal mythology around them and they came alarmingly close to being the founders of an Indian nation recognized by the Europeans.

Re: The Guardians Project - Lets build the original Champions Good catch. I believe you're right.

Re: "Neat" Pictures Go to the banks of Lake Superior in November and you will have no doubts that a ship of any size could get lost. Superior on any other continent would be called a Sea. It's pretty scary.

Re: 4th String Villians Yeah! Piledriver. 160 whopping points of slow moving (SPD 4) one-punch action. And if you knocked him out, he was just a simpleton missing a hand.

Re: 4th String Villians Yeah!
