[QUOTE="Corinnguard, post: 9456177, member: 7033886"] Mine would have to be [I]Mutants and Masterminds 2nd edition. [/I]I vaguely remember coming across it at a convention about 10-15 years ago. I collected some of its' books, my favorite being the [I]Ultimate Power Pocketbook [/I]for the level of customization and crunch it offered when creating superpowers. I wasn't into role-playing at the time, so I mostly tried my hand at creating superheroes. I had created two favorites back then. My first creation, Cerberus, combined the Costumed Detective and Duplicator archetypes. I had it where the outside world saw him as a team of highly trained, highly skilled individuals who operated much like Batman. But in reality, the threesome were one individual, three bodies sharing a single mind. I was sort of inspired by Christopher Hinz's Paratwa from a series of the same name. [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Hinz"]Christopher Hinz - Wikipedia[/URL] The Paratwa were a race of genetically engineered super-soldiers, each of whom existed as a single mind shared by two bodies.
