Message: <blockquote data-quote="Reynard" data-source="post: 8816028" data-attributes="member: 467">We're close: this coming weekend. Here are the fluff writeups for the 3 major villains. The "redacteds" are because I use some salty language when I write for myself.----------Ser Bright the Hightouched, Throneguard of the Realm, Holy ShieldfistNutshell: Homelander as a fantasy adventure paladinPowers: invulnerable to physical harm, super strength and speed, “holy eyebeams”, manifest warhorseWeakness: Ser Bright needs to breathe. He can hold his breath a very long because of superhuman Vigor but he must eventually breathe or he will suffocate/drown.etc. Personality: Ser Bright is a right bastard. He puts on the smiling, charming face of a truly noble hero but is inherently cruel, self serving and mad. If he has a second weakness, it is that he needs to be adored by the masses and exalted by the Church and Crown.Relations with other Champions: Ser Bright hates Mistress Nocht and she hates him. To Ser Bright, she is a vile temptress and demonic REDACTED, with her REDACTED black masses and cult of succubi nuns. Ser Bright dislikes Ursoth but mostly because Ursoth represents the kind of unfettered fury and displays of power Ser Bright secretly wishes he could engage in. He also doesn’t know for sure that he could take Ursoth in a one on one fight.Mistress Nocht, Lady of the Veil, Seer of the Night, She Who Answers Your TearsNutshell: Psychic mind controller and fortune teller with the blackest heartPowers: Mistress Nocht can see the immediate future clearly and the farther future more vaguely. She is telepathic and clairvoyant and can enter the dreams of sleeping victims and implant ideas into their minds. She has a small army of “nuns” that follow her, who engage in abominable black mass REDACTED in her name. Weakness: While strong and resilient like all Champions, she is not truly invulnerable. She could be killed by a powerful enough Champion or Abomination. But her real weakness is that she is always on the verge of true madness. She is almost an Abomination, and if she tipped over to that side Ser Bright would have to put her down.Personality: Mistress Nocht is cold and calculated. While her cult of nuns are driven by lust and hate, she remains largely above emotions -- because she enjoys them vicariously. Part of her wants to just let go and cause the whole city, or realm, or world to REDACTED, fight and die for her, but she keeps that part of herself bottled up.Relations with other Champions: She hates Ser Bright and he hates her. She hates that the Church loves him despite him being a narcissistic monster, and he hates her for being a corrupt devil REDACTED. She doesn’t care much about Ursoth at all, other than that he is a potentially dangerous foe but also a potentially useful weapon should she have to fight Ser Bright.Ursoth Furyborn, the Bear of Bleakbarrow, Earthshaker, the Unbound TitanNutshell: The Hulk, but a bear totem barbarianPowers: Super strength, near invulnerability, unending rage, every increasing power as he rages, a literal pants REDACTing roar.Weakness: Weak mind -- when in a rage he can be easily manipulated by anger. Out of it he can be manipulated by base desires -- sex, alcohol, pride, etc.Personality: Ursoth Furyborn is the pure embodiment of toxic masculinity. He is all about strength over feelings, but completely subject to his own emotions. He calls everyone a whining REDACTED when all he does is rage against unfairness. He drinks himself into a blind stagger while talking about being able to hold his liquor, etc.Relations with other Champions: He hates Ser Bright because Ser Bright is at once a REDACTED for being a “good guy” but also more powerful than him. He is a little afraid of Ser Bright while also really wanting to fight him to prove he is not afraid. He is convinced cold Mistress Nocht just needs a “real man” like himself to “warm her up.”</blockquote>
