Generation Legacy: Part Three

Would different sets of powers change who the character would be, or are powers married to the character idea?

Summary of stuff so far:

Shalimar: Clover Hughes - Weather Controller - Minor Noble/Military Brat
Samnell: Shadow Powers (TK, Teleport, Regen) - Australian Surfer
Hammerhead: Color Control
Kain: Possible Cassie Redux
Sollir: Pocket Dimension/Teleport
Mimic: Jock

Not sure what you mean there. Depends on how you want to portray the PC, I guess.

That question was actually for Kain. Kain said there were a few other concepts in the works when you said therehad to be at least oneAmerican in response to Cassie being from New Orleans. Just a bit of curiosity.

Ah, whoops. Yeah, I thought it was an odd question for me. :)
 

So Agamon, how do the British feel about Elites? Are those serving Britain knighted or given honors? any official statements or positions from the Monarchy? Is Elizabeth still the Queen or has Charles been bumped up?
 

I am fairly certain that my character is going to be from the U.S. probably from the mid-west bible belt area.

It will give him a good fish out of water feel, and could lead to some interesting misconceptions about the world outside of the US. I am actually toying with giving him some pretty distorted views on ethnic people/women but I wanted to see what everyone else thought of it first.

Now I don't mean racist, per say, just a very 1950s look at things. Men went out and earned the money while the women stayed at home and they don't voice their opinions. "Those colored people are ok if they stick to there own kind" sort of thing.

Ok, looking at what I wrote its pretty racist/sexist but he doesn't hate/dislike others its just how he was raised.

Would this be taking it too far? Does anyone have any objection to this?

I don't know about Agamon's GL, but Toki gave me a good laugh when he referred to the King of the UK as Charles I, the guy Parliament deprived of a head. :)
 

He and Clover would clash pretty well, but I think that could be good. Clover is definitely going to be brash and speak her mind to anyone in her peer group, and probably to any teachers too. No problems on my end with a good old boy.

I'm ok with, even kind of welcome someone who's racist out of ignorance. It's a nice flaw and could work well with our multi-ethnic group. My PC's going to be a Chinese Australian, so you'll definitely have some non-European misconception bait. :)
