[QUOTE="The Shadow, post: 1373278, member: 16760"] I haven't encountered this acronym before, but I'm guessing it means something like, "That's one bad-ass kid!" :) Yes, you don't want to make David mad. Trust me on this. The lad don't know his own strengt'. :) The GM has let a little about his stats slip, btw. David is PL 8. He has a 20 Str [I]normally[/I]. (Doesn't look it, though, he has a very dense musculature. He's well-built, yes, but not Arnie.) If he gets an adrenaline rush or perceives a threat, his Super-Strength and Super-Dexterity kick in, along with a bit of Strike (extra unarmed damage) and, I'm guessing, a considerable amount of Attack and Defense. Oh, and of course Regeneration coming out of his ears, and a bit of Running. Flawed Immunity to Poison - when he and Alex found this out, they did a controlled experiment... David gets buzzed after drinking four six packs of beer. He also hasn't seemed to get sick since puberty, though I don't know for sure whether he's Immune or just super-healthy. I'm not particular about the nose (and anyway, when acting as the Shadow he maintains a light Illusion about his face to fuzz his features), it's the intensity of the eyes that grabs my attention. That and the wonderfully battered black hat... too many depictions of the Shadow show him in a freakin' bowler or the equivalent. [/QUOTE]
