  1. The focus may not even be required at all. The second character is a whole different character with different abilities.

     

    Think Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Jekyll has Multiform with OAF syringe (at least initially). In the book, Hyde uses the same method to change back, but in the movies sometimes it just wears off after a while.

    I think that is for the writer's conveinience

  3.  

    What I call a "Cosmic Imp" is a mischievous NPC of vast, perhaps infinite power that behaves in perhaps aggravating manner but isn't usually directly malicious. They may be childish, naive, curious, pompous or even enamored of one or all the PCs but their power combined with their lack of impulse control (and often near complete lack of understanding/concern about human society or concepts like Boundaries) can lead to problems, some times silly one but problems none the less. 
     
    The PCs can't usually just fight the Cosmic Imp but have to outwit them. They often have some Achilles Heel that can lead to their undoing if properly exploited. Or it might just be case of enduring them and playing damage control until they get bored and move onto the next shiny thing. 
     
    Examples would include: Mr Mxyzptlk, Impossible Man/Woman, Bat Imp More fringe example might include The Beyond, Q (for a non comic book one) and The Infinite Man in the Champions universe those these are more serious and sinister/threatening than Cosmic Imps are usually. 
     
    Have you ever used this character type in a game and how did it turn out? Do you have any suggestions for using such a character in a superhero role playing game?

     

    isn't that Bat-MITE?

  4. Perhaps instead of Dragonfly you could call him--Dragon Man.  Give him a cowl that looks like a dragon's head, a cape with a dragonscale design, his vehicle could be loaded with dragon motifs, and he could have a number of fire-based attacks.

     

    Hope that helps.

    I think marvel has trademarked the name for their character
