Comic Publishing in my campaign Taking a leaf out of the Sentinels RPG and card game, where a lot of their energy goes into the fictional comic book publishing world of their characters. I thought I would do the same for my campaign. Sticking to the rule of only using characters that have been published by superhero RPG's or games (as in the Protectors which I am currently converting to my versions) or at least mentioned (Spinerette is a great example) and also saying up front I love homages to the big two comic companies, so many of my versions of the characters will be more slanted to direct or semi homages (Grond will be a classic example of this as he will become much more a direct Hulk/Bruce Banner homage than his current champions universe version). I will use this post to add to the comics published in my campaign world. Looking for a company name for the comics publisher I am going to go with my own homage to Hero games and call them HC (Hero Comics). Here is a list I will add to over time. Dr Wraithe (Magical adventures, often with a historical British feel with Dr. Wraithe travelling through time, this title has stopped and started again a few times) Heroic Team Up (Team up book with Spinerette and a guest star hero) The Protectors! (A long term comic dedicated to the super group from San Francisco) The Incredible Spinerette (The longest running Spinerette title now running for three years since her debut) Paula Atwood Super Spinerette (A title focusing on the young heroine's secret identity, HC has no idea in reality Paige Adams is Spinerette but weirdly they have made up her secret identity that has the same initials as her real name, which has freaked the real Spinerette out hugely as she is convinced someone at HC knows who she really is). Silk of the Spinerette (Spinerette title that is aimed more at teens and children, especially teen girls so is much more romance orientated in its story telling) Spinerette (2nd most popular current Spinerette title) I will add to this post as I complete more characters.

Her father is Dragonfly (another old champs villain) who transformed himself into a fly like monster during his experiments and Paige a year later nearly did the same to herself by accident when discovering her father's experiments. She escaped the expirementation pod however just in time and was given a unique set of powers by a spider that had crawled into the pod with her. Since then she has tried to come to terms with her new abilities and help the residents of New York City. She has been offered membership in a few superhero groups but has turned them all down even though she seems to make a habit of teaming up with other heroes on a regular basis. Character created with Hero Designer (version 20220312) Just as an aside, I like endurance to be more a factor in my games especially with young heroes that maybe have not got full control of their powers yet, so note the high endurance costs of some powers on my builds such as Spinnerette above.

Just as a quick FYI the write ups in the future will not include background details. It is just taking far too long to type it all in and I have not got that much free time at the moment. So I will stick to the mechanics of the write up and hopefully i can provide more of them that way. Next up Maelstrom.

He had been fighting with the Yanks in WW1, giving his all against the German threat, but now he was dead ! where was he? He opened his eyes upon a dark and musty place, lit only by a flickering candlestick. The voice which pierced the gloom sounded both ancient and foreboding. "Eric Wraithe", you have been chosen as my new apprentice. I snatched you from the clutches of death, and you will repay me with your service. To disobey me to to perish" Eric shuddered at this bewildering nightmare. The voice soon manifested itself as an ancient man, cloaked in scarlet and indigo. His breath was like the stale air in a forgotten tomb and his clawed touch was that of a corpse. Eric had no idea how long he was in that place, it seemed like centuries. The arcane create trained Eric in the mystical arts of manipulating reality hoping that Eric would help him rule, but his training was too through, and Eric discovered the way to escape. As the Ancient one swore revenge for his efforts he had wasted on "An insignificant and ungrateful mortal" he revealed himself as the great being Skarn the Shaper, just as Eric managed to escape back to his own world. At first he was disorientated, it took him several hours to realize that over 100 years had passed since his abduction. Moreover he had also moved geographically, he was now near the bustling city of San Francisco. He quickly realized he needed money to survive and knew he needed to prepare for Skarn the Shapers revenge. So he decided on a desperate course of action, he magically manipulated the states lottery and made himself the big winner. With his tainted winning's Eric purchased himself a big mansion and began to reorient himself into his new era. He enrolled at the local university and quickly earned doctoral degrees in psychology and parapsychology. He had never intended to become involved with the costume crime fighters that he read about in the newspapers, but he frequently found himself rushing to the aid of innocents in danger, battling powerful megalomaniacs and other deadly criminal magical or otherwise. He was soon contacted by the master mage of this reality Eldritch to add his mystical might to the group of magical heroes called the Circle, after establishing himself with that group he eventually helped form the Protectors in his native San Francisco. PERSONALITY Dr Wraithe is a grim and moody individual. The rest of the team often feel uncomfortable in his presence, it is clear to the rest of them he is being hunted by a hugely powerful mystical entitiy from another dimension and this tends to make the Protectors jumpy when dealing with the supernatural. Eric's mindset is still consistent with the 1910's , he is appalled by the the sharp decline in morality since he has been away. He usually can be found locked up in his mansion accompanied only by his very brave butler Wentworth. Character created with Hero Designer (version 20220312)

Here is Brainstorm. I have added into his background his flirtation with the Guardians who in my campaign will be my version of the X-Men, although still using most of the old Guardians Champions characters (Goliath,Icestar, flare, Gargoyle etc. I have made him slightly more powerful in combat and added in an Ego drain power. I have reduced some of his characteristics as physically I did not want him so competent. I have given him lighting reflexes for his mental powers and this will be a common power for mentalists in my campaign. Next up Dr. Wraithe. Lastly I have given a name to the psychic increasing drug he was fed to by PSI and called it MXI I will be using this as the most common psychically enhancing drug in the campaign universe.

The striping on the sid eof the outfit, as well as his mask and belt buckle are white. BACKGROUND Kent Hampton was kidnapped as a small child by PSI who killed his father and seriously injured his mother in a hail of bullets. Over the next dozen years he was brainwashed and indoctrinated into PSI's worldview as his mental powers slowly developed. During this period they also had him become addicted to the mind expanding drug MXI which did increase his powers greatly but he quickly became addicted to and still needs to this day or suffers extreme migraines. at the age of seventeen, Kent managed to escape the clutches of PSI with the secret formula of MXI, vowing revenge Kent adopted the identity of Brainstorm and began a career as a costumed crime fighter. After several months of working solo he was asked to join both the Guardians and the Protectors. Rejecting his mutant background he said no to the Guardians and instead joined the Protectors as their resident egotist. PERSONALITY Though he is remarkably efficient in combat, Brainstorm is classically immature. His many years of captivity have left him without social skills, and he frequently makes embarrassing or hurtful remarks. Ace has a great deal of pity for Brainstorm- a feeling he has misinterpreted as affection. At the urging of Maelstrom, brainstorm has recently begun studying sociology at the university of California in Berkeley. At time Kent seems to operate from pure hormones. He will often try to seduce a villainess before fighting her and may waste a phase sending crude suggestions telepathically. In his spare time he is a science fiction fanatic and very loud rap music can usually be heard blaring from his quarters, soon kent hopes to become a DJ. QUOTE "Come on Princess, you know you want to" POWERS/TACTICS Brainstorm's own mental abilities have been enhanced tremendously by MXI he is addicted to. However, as his proficiency with his psychokinetic powers has increased, so too has his conceit. Kent frequently shows contempt for other mentalists, and Quasar struggles to keep Kent from "dueling" psychically. When engaged in battle, Brainstorm will usually keep his back close to a wall to prevent surprise ambushes. If possible, Brainstorm will remain in a relatively hidden location, firing his mental assault at opponents until his cover is blown. Then he will begin to use his telekinesis, grabbing one opponent and throwing him into another. If in combat against another mentalist he will first use his brain drain power to reduce their ego before going on the offensive with his mental assault. Character created with Hero Designer (version 20220312)

I think Red Doom have a lot of potential in the current political climate with the Ukraine/Russian war. I can see them being used by Putin (or whatever faceless Russian dictator you use). The interesting thing is in the original organisation there was some very villainous members but also some very heroic ones, so would be interesting how you justify the heroic ones being part of a ruthless mercenary group.

You are right, It's a long time since I played Champions and I am using this project to prepare for a campaign. I had in my head that it represented how much the power did not function rather than how often it did not function for the points. I have amended it, thanks for the spot. Below is the updated file, I have also added in appearance details. haracter Name: Doc Sonic Alternate Identities: Dr Robyn Williams Player Name: NPC herologo.jpg CHARACTERISTICS Val Char Base Points Total Roll Notes 13 STR 10 3 13 12- HTH Damage 2 1/2d6 END [1] 23 DEX 10 39 23 14- OCV 8 DCV 8 20 CON 10 20 20 13- 11 BODY 10 2 11 11- 23 INT 10 13 23 14- PER Roll 14- 13 EGO 10 6 13 12- ECV: 4 15 PRE 10 5 15 12- PRE Attack: 3d6 14 COM 10 2 14 12- 6 PD 3 3 6/26 6/26 PD (0/20 rPD) 5 ED 4 1 5/23 5/23 ED (0/18 rED) 5 SPD 3.3 17 5 Phases: 3, 5, 8, 10, 12 15 REC 7 16 15 59 END 40 10 59 41 STUN 28 13 41 6" Running 6 0 6" 2" Swimming 2 0 2" 2" Leaping 3 0 2 1/2" 150 Total Characteristics Points CHARACTER IMAGE EXPERIENCE POINTS Total earned: 0 Spent: 255 Unspent: 0 Base Points: 100 Disad Points: 100 Total Points: 455 MOVEMENT Type Total Run (6) 6" [12" NC] Swim (2) 2" [4" NC] H.

BACKGROUND Dr. Robyn Willows had been part of the US Army's Project Talos since she left university, the Army had various suits in stages of development and some of them were far more advanced and successful than her expensive lightweight sonic suit. Eventually the army officially cut her funding and cut her from the project. She was considered and expensive failure and it was only after three years of struggling without funding she eventually met Wayne Savage owner of SavCo. He reinstated her funding and once she completed the battlesuit he revealed he was a member of the Protectors as the hero the Huntsman. Dr Willows joined the group in her unique suit as the new hero Doc Sonic and has been a member ever since. PERSONALITY Robyn is a strong, confident woman who knows her strengths and limitations. In many ways she is the Protectors most psychologically most balanced member. She is not afraid to express her opinion on a subject , but is prudent enough to know when to keep silent. Her first love is science and when off duty she can usually be found tinkering in one of her labs. And although she knows her sonic battlesuit is a powerful weapon, she does not enjoy super heroics. Battle is always frightening to her, she is aware of her own mortality. QUOTE "You should listen to me sir, dont make me shout!" POWERS/TACTICS Though Doc sonic dislikes combat, she understands it's occasional necessity and is prepared to use her battlesuits abilities aggressively. In battle Robyn will seek out a sheltered location and cut lose with her NND attack or Energy Blast, hoping the knockback will provide her with more space. Up to now she has never used her RKA against a living opponent, reserving it for breaking through doorways or the occasional killer robot. She has recently become more comfortable flying in battle and has developed some flying combat skill. Very recently she has added a sonic DEX drain to her suits attacks but has not used it much yet. CAMPAIGN_USE Notes on changes I have made to make her more an experienced heroine. I have filled out her skill portfolio giving her skills that would make sense for her and slightly increased her expertise with them, I have given her two more slots on her attack multipower and also a small variable gadget pool. Her characteristics are slightly tweaked but remain basically the same Character created with Hero Designer (version 20220312) No he was correct, the Protectors in my campaign might have the occasional cosmic or space adventure but it should be 1/4, I just made a mistake with the limitation in my mind. On to Brainstorm next.

Continuing this project I am going to start with 5th edition versions of the Protectors from the adventure "To Serve and Protect". They will be my versions so depending on the character the differences might be big or small or hardly any different at all. Will be giving them all some xp bonuses as in my campaign I want them to be quite a powerful and experienced group of heroes. I will post hero designer sheets for them as I go first up will be Doc Sonic.

No what I was getting at was, If i wanted to simulate slow growth on a character that has been active x amount of years and spend those XP at the end of each year active what ranges would be appropriate? Lets just say for example we have a spider-man type young hero that's been active four years, if I wanted to spend some xp for him at the end of each year how much would be appropriate in a range?

I have to say that is one of the most original and cool scenarios for sudden super heroes and villains I have ever heard!

Question for you guys, how much XP would you give NPC's in your campaign, both heroes and villains to simulate that they started off as 350 point characters but they are now two, five, ten, twenty years on in their careers? Would it be a range? what would be your maximum? I am trying to simulate and build various NPC's of various experience levels and I want to simulate such xp in as logical way as possible. Would it be anything from 10-50 points a year depending on the NPC? how would you and do you update long running NPC's in your campaign? Dean

Well thats where we probably differ on strength levels, starting PC's would be about 50-65 but I want my heavy hitters in the campaign to be well above that. As to if they are usable for other peoples campaigns, obviously my priority is my campaign and if people dont want to use them that's fine, that was not my motive for posting them anyway, but I would point out it takes minutes to amend characters to fit into their own personal campaign if they want to. And as for being baseline champions, these are NPC's I am posting not PC's, If the thing on 700ish points will never be used, what does that say for the many, many official champions characters way above that level? Yes he is a powerful NPC, My supers campaigns have always been full of them.

LOL, why could this not be used in a game? all stas are relative to each other are they not? and this will become apparent as I keep posting more characters. You could do versions of many characters hundreds and hundreds of points part, that does not make any version non valid, it all depends on how they stack up with other characters in your game. I have not taken it disrespectfully, you are contributing to the thread and I thank you for that, the purpose is to share the posts with others as my version of the universes and I promise you they will match up relative to each other. Well yes! We may often disagree on character visions, but no one is really right or wrong it is just interpretation. For me what is most important is how they model against each other. It is the same in the comics different creative teams write characters in different ways with the spill over of power increases or decreases before the next writer comes along.

Well the stats will make more sense as I do more write ups as I said in the original post as they are all relative to each other. The strength level is to get him to just below the characters who will be placed at a 100ish (Thor, Hercules, calm Hulk etc). With the combat skill levels he is considered one of the greatest fighters in the Marvel uni and with such a low Dex and the maneuvers I gave him he will be hit aplenty but will also be hitting back, the combat skill level range I will be giving out is 1-12. So this places him just off top tier with 8. The ego represents his huge willpower than is often seen and spoken about. He is one of the most experienced and powerful heroes in the marvel uni and my FF overall will be one of the premier groups, as they should be. Yes he has improved since then, also I didn't want to put him too far under a calm Hulk, to represent they are such an even match for each other in their classic brawls over the years.
