Behind the Curtain - OOC (full)

[Rybaer]

Anyone have a suggestion for what the name of the home city should be? Something suitable for an east-coast metropolis. I'm envisioning it as being a little smaller than NYC...probably more like Boston. Just drawing a creative blank at the moment.

 

[morrolan]

Consider yourself considered.

Feel free to write up a character concept. Maybe if you can really sell me on it, I'll relent and run with five characters...

Cheers, I'll come up with something and post later.

Coast city? Although that does have a very familiar ring to it.


Just to everyone know I am thinking of making a tank character, never played one before.

As for a character concept, I'm thinking of giving Sorcery a try. I'll either go with the gamer at heart that was affected by the waves and now spells are real, or the mathematician that can manipulate matter through the use of complex formulae.

I'm thinking of using the character I created for the Team 6 game. That one only existed for two pages or so.
Jorgi Vadislav, hyperactive electrokinetic mutant, superhacker and not so brave hero.

For my part, I will take a character I have made lately and havn't the chance to play. Radiant will recognize it. It is Tarentula, a guy that have the creepy power to transform into a swarm of venomous spiders. I'll rework his background, and maybe a little bit his powers.

yep that one was pretty cool. Just didn't want him and Shadow.

Dude, you forgot the altered form - semi solid power. Also altered form - semi-solid gives you elasticity so you don't need to purchase it (I don't have the book in front of me so I am not 100% sure)

 

[Velmont]

Alternate form is a package deal, and I don't want it. I don't see the swarm with a huge amount of elasticityé Yeah, it can extend on an area, but not that big (like 40ft long), it evolve more like a mass.

And the alternate form give bonus to strenght on damage (and I see more like what you can see in movie, a swarm that crawl on you, not punch you), and finally, it give bonus to damage, but with super-dex and evasion, it is not very usefull.

But Some power have the same flaw as alternate form, which is flaw: Restricted: Swarm Form, which take some time to tranfrom and those power can't be use in human form.
