[QUOTE="zouron, post: 898966, member: 920"] Well one character I especially remember for breaking the mould/suepr natural like was a human rogue/sorcerer, his stats were on the extremely good side and thus made me able to do him as a kind of living version of the grim reaper so to speak, with scythe etc. However not looking much of a skeleton I made him use body paint to compelte the illusion, the spells were based on what ability I thought he had, I spend lotsa ranks in intimidate/hide/move silent to make him be scary, gave him a few more disgusting habits as well and a mobid way of speech. Normally I wouldn't have thought him possible, but it was just able through a combination of things, however the downside to this approach is of course that cause he was a very flavour based character he only thing that kept him on par with the rest was his simply outstanding stats. I think one has to remember mostly aobut these iconic characters, that while they are born strong, most of their legend take place after they have become super experienced, using core rules, you want to keep adding strength to herc, and get him strength based items to increase it, an immortal of course needs some kind of magic, but at low level LOTSA hp and some acting., and so on. However these of course will not be the super beings at first or ever that one sees from movies, there you will probably need some kind of special template or similar. FCtF is a nice product :-) a little bit tasking to use, but nice :-) [/QUOTE]
