[QUOTE="Acid_crash, post: 1508052, member: 16278"] Here is a character idea I have, and it's a character I had made a LONG time ago for a Champions game that never took off, and I think it would be easy to adapt to this game: His name is Xavier Laverneous O'Riley, and for about six years he was a preacher in a Catholic church in Hell's Kitchen, the last remaining church in that area. He is a stubborn man, and despite the high crime rate in the area he believed within his heart that his mission in life was to try to give the light to the people that still believed. After six years of preaching, seeing the congregation depopulate more and more till he had only a few people coming each week, Xavier grew desperate, and felt despair. This feeling intensified when a gang of teenagers entered the church on a sunday morning and started to spray paint the interior of the church, while he was having a sermon. He tried to get them to leave, but in the process he was beat up and almost killed. Left for dead, he prayed to God, and what he thinks happened next he will never forget. At the end of the prayer, after he had laid in his own blood for over a couple hours, a blazing white light burst into the building. It erupted from above the altar and the cross, and while trying to shed his eyes from the light, an object floated down, and when he reached up with his hands he heard a voice, and grabbed a staff with a heavy metal cross at the top. The voice said, "Take my word to the streets my son and preach the word to all who live. Take evil into the womb, embrace it with love, and destroy it from the world so all will know that love walks the planet. Go forth and live my will." (or it was something like that, it was so long ago when I made this character). Xavier then started to walk the streets, calling him Street Prophet, or Prophet, and took the word to those who lived on the streets. He embraced love with love, and violence with violence. He carry's a magical staff that has great power, and God has bestowed him with the ability to never need eat or sleep again, and the abilty to heal others. ------------------------------ I made this character about six years ago, and never played him. I think that, with a couple twists, he would fit with the BPRD just fine, especially if those vile and evil Nazi's try anything. :D I don't know how his magic staff would work, but some powers of the staff included an energy blast of holy force, an extendable blade capable of cutting through almost anything, and magically enhanced his combat capability. And the staff, as a gift from God, is indestructable. Prophet also had increased Charisma abilities, and tries to talk before anything else. He believes it is his destiny to fight evil. ------------------------------ What do you think of this character? A possible Weakness idea: because of his spiritual belief and belief in God, do you think this would warrant the Quirk weakness? edit: added idea for weakness. [/QUOTE]
