[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7121901, member: 20323"] Absolutely, you can tweak [url=http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?550030-Villains-amp-Vigilantes-in-the-Freedomverse/page12&p=7119025&viewfull=1#post7119025]my updated build[/url]! I'm new to M&M and really don't know what I'm doing :) EDIT: As a martial arts student and kung-fu movie fan, I tried to base all the powers on something... Eyes of the Jade Tiger is based on the sixth sense / seeing without seeing. Grasshopper Step / Wire-Fu is based on wuxia in the movies. Iron Shirt Chi Gung is based on the real-world practice by the same name, often demonstrated by Shaolin monks. Boot to the Head is based on the Frantics' "Boot to the Head" comedy skit. Breaking Blow is based on Bruce Lee's one-inch punch which drew upon internal Fa Jin energy. Dim Mak is based on many legends of the Touch of Death, especially old White Lotus movies where it's called Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. Nine Palms Diagram is based on the Eight Diagram Palm of Baguazhang, a martial arts style based on constantly changing palm poses and whirling techniques. Forced Astral Projection is based on that scene in Dr. Strange where the Ancient One strikes him out of his body. Grandfather of Flowers Staff is a homage to anime and bad kung-fu movies with cursed objects and frenzied martial artists. Also a homage to the old AD&D monk class title "Grandmaster of Flowers."
