[sblock=Zatara]Nice! Okay, let's say Zatanna is his mentor. I know more about her.
I see her as highly supportive of his act, possibly having a different relationship with him where she doesn't get the attitude. She'd be older than he is.
The Infinite Crisis hasn't happened for this world, I don't think. If it does, I want to use it in-game.
Also, it should be "I wonk tahw er'uoy gnikniht", not "ruoy". Common grammagical error ;p
And you may want to add "won uoy t'nod" to that last one. Otherwise you're commanding everyone to spot you, which would be a bad thing when you're hoping for area concealment.
Gosh I love this concept.
[/sblock]
Will fix. Glad you like it. I definitely planned on having Zatanna as his mentor. Happy we're on the same page.

spoiler=background, WIP
Virgil Hawkins was a normal teenager before he was exposed to the "Big Bang", a gas leak that gave many of Dakota City's teens superhuman powers. Virgil, who could suddenly control electricity and magnetism, was no exception. When many of the "Bang Babies" decided to use their powers to wreck havoc on the town, committing crimes and spreading fear and panic, Virgil chose a different path, donning a costume and the name Static to fight crime and stop his super-powered peers. He is aided in this quest by his best friend Richie Foley, who convinced Virgil to be a superhero for good. Richie, under the name Gear, uses his genius intelligence to invent gadgets that help the duo fight evildoers.
Maybe go with Green Lantern (Jon Stewart) as a mentor?
Thoughts?

First Post
Green Dragon
Devoted to the art of the sword in the Ancient China Mountain of the Seven Lotus, Shin Fen Fo was raised and trained in and around the sword. The monks of the Shrine of the Seven Lotus lived isolated from the outer world, and wanted to train Shin as an herald from the temple to the rest of the world. Through Shin, the monks wanted to give the world a lesson, that the ancient and sacred ways were still useful, despite the world's technological developments.
Once Shin training was done, the monks send him to wander the world and show it, performing heroic acts and helping turn the tides in favor of good.
Devoted paladin of Good and tradition, Shin will stop at nothing to accomplish his destiny.
When he was wondering the world, he eventually meets Green Arrow, who saw in the young man, the potential to make an excellent hero. Green Arrow took the monk under his wing and introduced him to the rest of the league. However the old values and traditions, added to the cultural differences, made Shin a difficult person to get along, especially when he thought that the destiny was pointing him in a certain direction.

Just popping in from thread lurk mode for a second to mention that a M&M 3e preview PDF is up. What is helpful for Voda Vosa is that it contains the power effects table (sadly no extras or flaws table) and (more importantly) the Damage power.
Edit: Well technically.. It's the explanation of how damage works... which was originally written as part of the Damage Power description in DCA.

I kinda wanted to see if I could fit Miss Martian into 120 points, and despite some inelegant point-shaving here and there (that Accurate 4 on her Martian Vision is ugly to look at), I kinda like her. Having all her powers as one array can sorta represent how inexperienced she is with her abilities, requiring her to focus all her effort into any single application of her Martian powers. Now, do I submit my Wonder Girl or this Miss Martian build for the Young Justice game? They both seem like fun!

I See Dead People: Part of being Hades's little girl involves sometimes seeing departed spirits
Mentor: Wonder Woman, with whom she has a love/hate relationship
Relationship: Hades, foster parents, Cerberus the Wonder Dog
Reputation: People don't trust her because she's the daugher of Hades
Trojan Dog: Why DID Hades give her Cerberus? Oh well, he's cute!
Troublemaker: She can't help it
Annie happens to be the daughter of the Greek god of the underworld, Hades, and a Bana-Mighdallian Amazon, who caught the dark god's eye when one time Persephone decided to give him the cold shoulder. When Persephone found out, she influenced events to cause the luckless woman's death, but not until after she'd given birth to a baby girl. Knowing that the Bana-Mighdallians had no love of the Greek gods (having abandoned them in favor of the Egyptian and Middle-Eastern deities shortly after parting ways from their Themysciran sisters), Hades spirited the girl away from the hidden, Lost Amazon city into the world of man.
Hades went to Olympus to demand that his daughter be given the protection and training of the mythic Amazons, even reminding his brother Zeus of the many indiscretions he had helped cover up. However, influenced by Demeter, Persephone's mother, Zeus refused Hades his wish. Initially angered, Hades's cooler nature prevailed and he bargained with the Egyptian gods: have the Bana-Mighdallians train his daughter, and in exchange she would become their champion. While the Egyptian gods didn't trust Hades and in fact loathed all the Greek pantheon, they agreed, secretly planning on setting their new champion and their loyal Amazons against Themyscira. Whether or not Hades is aware of this is unknown; he plays his cards very close to his chest.
The bargain settled, Hades had his son Morpheus (not Dream of the Endless, of course) create a dreamworld for her every night, into which mighty Bana-Mighdallian warriors were also drawn during their slumber. The girl, named Annie, kept her mother's maiden name but was raised by loving foster parents and lead a double life: a relatively happy but boringly mundane existence as a normal girl in Man's World while she was awake, but a strictly regimented, spartan life of training and combat with the Lost Amazons in Annie's dreamworld.
Annie wasn't always the most studious of pupils, and balked at their rather merciless ways. When she complained about their "bad mojo" to her father, Hades simply smiled, and agreed it was time that Annie found a better teacher.
Hades gave her a gift from his vast horde of wealth, a thin silver headband which he invested with a portion of the power held within his famed Helm of Darkness; Annie could use this gift to turn invisible. Furthermore, it prevented the Egyptian gods from locating her in Man's World. With Hades's help and machinations, Annie was introduced to Diana of Themyscira, who had adopted the heroic title of Wonder Woman in Man's World. Annie was delighted, having always looked up to Wonder Woman as a role model, and - against Hades's instructions to do otherwise - immediately told her everything: about her past, her training, the Bana-Mighdallians (who till this point were a secret even to the Themyscirans), and especially of her desire to become Wonder Woman's sidekick, Wonder Girl.
Wonder Woman, while not entirely trusting Annie - and Hades - agreed, if only to keep an eye on her. The Bana-Mighdallians and their Gods were enraged that Hades had reneged on their bargain, and declared war on Hades, the Greek pantheon, Themyscira, Wonder Woman, and especially Wonder Girl. Angered at Hades's actions, the Greek Pantheon sanctioned him, and because diplomacy was destined for failure, prepared for war with the Egyptians. However, before accepting his imprisonment, Hades had a single request, to give his daughter Annie a reminder of his love: a seemingly mundane pet dog. Thinking the request harmless, Zeus agreed; for her part, Annie immediately fell in love with the dog, naming him Cerberus the Wonder Dog.
In his prison in the Underworld, Hades simply smiled, and waited.

Was bored, so I revised Wonder Girl again, making Cerberus just a potential complication (since he may in fact be an agent of Hades). Also changed her background; her mother was now a Bana-Mighdallian, the lost Amazon tribe that scorned the Greek Gods and ended up in Egypt. All the details are up in my last post, but it adds a whole stewpot of potential enemies now - the Egyptian gods, the Bana-Mighdallian Amazons, and now Hades is a more scheming, Machiavellian figure. What is he up to? Who knows? I certainly don't.
Fireinthedust, out of vested curiosity, how many players are you accepting and how long are you going to keep recruitment open for, another week probably?
