[QUOTE="fireinthedust, post: 5526638, member: 51930"] Yes to the above, however I'm thinking more along the lines of his suit. You're dressing in spandex, there is no debate (I let Zerith get away with his black bodysuit + scarf because his counter-offer was a crash helmet and a cape...). So I'm wondering if you're wearing lightning bolts, a picture of a hammer, etc., and whether you have any gimmicks: sayings, or weaknesses, that sort of thing. I like the idea of Boom Tubes, and think it could be helpful here if you were somehow influenced by the folks on New Genesis. I see Scott Free as a potential mentor. Superman is with Solaris and Echo already. Batman is taken by Batgirl, and I'd only allow a Robin or a Batgirl sidekick here. Batman's a genre of ninja-types and vigilantes, mystery men, not powered types. Wonder Woman is taken by Wondergirl. Flash has Chirpy. Are you magical? Cosmic? Could you be affiliated with Doctor Fate or the other JSA types? Speaking of which: what about a Hawkman-type character? Or Shazam? I'll admit, I'd like to keep to types in this game. There's less and less of a sense of "taking on the mantle of..." with each new character. That's not bad, per se, but it's missing the point of this campaign: adding a new member to that hero's "family" as if we were in the comics, and stepping into a too-big world in your mentor's shadow.
