[QUOTE="shilsen, post: 2868800, member: 198"] *beats own head on desk* Oh, sure! And at least give the poor guy some credit. Thus far every time he's hit a girl she's never actually been able to hit back afterwards. Ah, the little victories my characters have to take pride in. No, no - poor Chris (who's 17) always tries to help. It's just that a combination of luck and circumstances has had him end up punching women, and the damn talking dog has been bugging him about it ever since. And the reputation's become a standing joke in and out of character. With his luck, he'd be helping your PC and something would go wrong and end up making him punch her unwillingly. Oh, by the way, did I mention that Ruckus (the dog) not-so-lovingly refers to Chris constantly as Douchebag? He's even started introducing Chris to people as such. I'm thinking that's going to be his superhero name. Douchebag, Defender of Justice and Hitter of Women. Oh joy! You're enjoying this, aren't you? I think a little explanation is in order, so here's what happened to garner Chris his reputation: 1) The campaign started with the three PCs besides Joseirus joining the EVIL school and starting their first day with a few tests in the danger room to determine their capabilities. Their group consisted of Chris, Randy (the hyperactive spinning guy), Ruckus, twin psions called Adam and Lilith, and lastly - Timmy. Timmy happens to be Ruckus' owner, has no powers whatsoever, is convinced he can heal Ruckus & talk to him (because Ruckus has persuaded him that he's the source of Ruckus' strange powers), and is effectively a group complication since we have to stop fighting and save him every so often. Anyway, the last test consists of a baby whose lollipop we have to take. Which turns out to be a horribly powerful mentalist and mind-controls and/or mind blasts most of us. We manage to get past that and complete the test, but by then Adam is badly hurt and Lilith has a breakdown and is randomly mind blasting people (including the school medics/technicians who showed up to let us out of the danger room and tend to the wounded). With nobody else being able to stop her, Chris apologizes and then knocks her cold. That's one. 2) A few days later, after having been joined by Joseirus and wrestled Cthulhu (before Joseirus threw him 500 miles in the air, dropped him in the ocean and created a tidal wave - long story), the four of us are trying to grab dinner at a restaurant which gets attacked by a pair of super-criminal siblings and their henchmen. After a quick exchange of attacks, everyone else is engaged in different places and Chris is left facing the female super-villain. This time he doesn't apologize and knocks her out. 3) A couple days later there's a situation with hundreds of people spontaneously beginning to spin wildly through the air. Chris, standing on Joseirus' flaming chariot, tries to catch a woman whirling by. Which he succeeds at, but she keeps whirling and promptly dislocates her arm. Figures. So there's the saga of Chris and his many women. Not so bad, is it? Right? [/QUOTE]
