I want a Gritty Power Source!

Power Sources are the thing in 4th Edition! There's a nature Source, an arcane Source, a Martial source, a divine source, etc. Why shouldn't there be a Gritty Power Source? It would be awesome! I can imagine it now....

Gritty Power Source Defender

What, did you expect this class to have a name? Class names are luxuries for classes who have time to sit around and think of cool class names. The Gritty Power Source Defender spents his time on a little task called stayin' alive!

Stab them a lot! Gritty Power Source Defender 3
Screw it! Just stab them a bunch of times!
Encounter Weapon
Standard Action Melee weapon
Target: One creature
Attack: Made three melee attacks agaisnt the target

MacGyver (the gritty controller)

A MacGyver can defeat monster just as well as other classes. What makes him different you may ask? He can do it with just a broken dagger handle, 4 inches of rope, and 2 days worth of trail's rations.

What other cool classes, powers, items would be good for the gritty power source? Are my ideas gritty enough?

I've got a good name for a power for a gritty striker. Check my sig :cool:

Now I just gotta figure out what it would do ... maybe a strike that always hits, ignores all interruptions and defenses, and requires a save or die roll.

Speaking of which, can Noir be a power source in 4E Modern? I want to draw my powers from gritty monologues.
You gain situational bonuses on rainy nights and your implements include: cigarettes, fedoras and overcoats.

But you're a sort of vampire for bombshells (blond, brunette, doesn't matter).

This is also known as the "Chuck Norris" power source.

Bull! Chuck Norris is his own power source.

In fact, all characters with a divine power souce draw their strength FROM Chuck Norris, as he is the one true god.

:melee: Chuck Norris Roundhouse (standard: at-will) Weapon (You're damn right Chuck Norris is a weapon)
+100 vs. AC; Target dies
Miss: Target still dies, but has time to grasp how wrong he was before he does so.
