[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 7835364, member: 19675"] (Now, you will burn!) Soooo, I had this idea for a fire/heat themed superhero from an alternative dimension where Rome didn’t fall, but who is now trapped in the home setting for the campaign. Think...a version of the original Marvel Iron Man villain [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firebrand_(Marvel_Comics)']Firebrand[/URL], but with high-tech centurion-like armor and gear. His secret ID would be something like Marcus Celsius, but his super ID would be something like Incendimus. Perhaps he has a “rocket pilum”, monofilament energy sword and a force shield to go with his powered armor. I’m looking for input. I’m a HEROphile, so I’m not necessarily looking for game mechanics- I can figure that out on my own. I’m looking for system-neutral ideas for powers and abilities, yes, but MOST importantly, looking for roleplaying ideas to make him seem more Roman and thus different, plus ideas on why he’s trapped here. I’m thinking he’s going to be a bit harsher, almost like Judge Dredd. But beyond that? Kinda drawing blanks. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
