Legion of Superheroes RP W/Stats!?! iCheck

[rocketrobie2]

@The Kid Lantern Sweet! Looks wicked! I really love the micro. I kept imaging him in a more kid flash type costume or a blue one but the one you gave him is waaaay better than what I imagined.

[Bluetommy]

Name - Andrew Nolan

Alias - Ferro Lad

Age - 19

Powers/Primary Skills -

Organic Iron Transformation- Ferro has the superhuman ability to convert the tissue of his entire body into an organic Iron. He is able to transform into this armor-like state at will. After transforming into Iron he possesses vast superhuman strength and is invulnerable to most forms of bodily harm.

Weaknesses -

No Anchoring Ability- Ferro is unable to anchor himself to the floor, meaning he is easily thrown around.

No Formal Combat Training- Ferro relies mostly on brute force when fighting. As a result, Ferro lags behind better trained fighters. His speed when in combat is abysmal when compared to a trained opponent or ally.

Brief Bio - Andrew Nolan and his twin brother, Douglas, were born with severely deformed faces. Horrified, their mother, Mary Nolan, a famous stage actress, abandoned them. Left in the care of an unscrupulous scientist called "Doc 30", he escaped as a teenager while Douglas remained behind. As a result of this experience, both Douglas and Andrew gained the ability to transform into living iron, from which Andrew took his name (Fe is the periodic table designation for Iron). After Braniac 5's betrayal, Ferro Lad rejoined with the remaining members of the Legion to protect them and perhaps find his brother once again.

[Omega Man]

@bluetommy2 Re-read the stat stuff. Needs work at the bottom half and no way Health would be at 30!

~KL~

[Omega Man]

@bluetommy2

K. Since he's a cannon you can go ahead and give him two more stat points [you already listed a sig move]. For each point in Attack and Defense you need to list a specific move also. You can be vague if need be [for example my 'throw' could mean throwing debris or the enemy itself..], I really like how some of you are making your characters super powerful in one area instead of all of us having them balanced out. This will be badass when it gets going.

~KL~

[Bluetommy]

@The Kid Lantern Okay, I have done as asked.

[Omega Man]

@bluetommy2Health would be at 17 now but I can make a stat card now. Has @knighthawk been around since I posted the cards and whatnot?

Also, @FantasyChic was showing interest in the Casual iCheck I also made for this. So we'd still have a team of 5 at least!

@The Kid Lantern

Is momentum a Xudarian? The race of Tomar-Re and Tomar-Tu?

Sorry I haven't responded sooner, Photobucket wouldn't let me see the pics so I couldn't reply to what I couldn't see.

I was going with a different look but otherwise I like it and the reasons for the grey. I didn't realize how hard it is to put red and green together without looking like a christmass ornament.

[FantasyChic]

Yes, I am here. Not sure what I'm making yet

@knighthawk

I half thought since they don't have their classic gold belt buckles and rings part of the new models would include more silver/iron looking metal, perhaps Nth metal courtesy of Hawkman? If you've got another idea as to how he should look lemme know, I was just tinkering around with stuff cause I wanted a group shot.

And yeah, Momentum is the same race as Tomar Re/Tu. I was just tossing ideas out there and R2 took the idea of a Xudarian speedster and ran with it...

~KL~

[knighthawk]

Originally I went with red and gold instead of your silver and green, he looked too much like sir gallahad.

[rocketrobie2]

@The Kid Lantern Lol,

Ran with it.

Very punny.

[Omega Man]

@knighthawk I actually found a Thanagarian soldier variant on Hawkman's suit that was gold and red I liked. I just went with silver since it was the color of our flight rings/buckles this time around. Then again Momentum would've also had some yellow/gold rather than the silver bolt but I'm recoloring Hawkboy and trying some stuff now...



@rocketrobie2 LOL you saw what I did there...

~KL~

[Omega Man]

Made his symbol blue just cause, left the buckle and barely visible ring silver.

On a side note, I need to start fleshing out the rest of the enemies [and their stat cards] cause generally now a campaign would be twenty-five enemies total. That includes a big bad [Level 20 stats], a side boss [Level 15 stats], three generals in the big bad's crew [Level 10], four brutes [Level 8 stats], eight experienced henchmen [Level 5 stats], and eight rookie henchmen [Level 1 stats]. The big bad will of course be Brainiac 5, the side boss will likely be the Persuader, Sun Killer will be one of three generals, and the brutes and henchmen will all be determined in the next couple days. This is shaping up to be a nice game for certain.

I'll have to decide on a couple more generals. If anybody's got any suggestions...

I am currently working on my character. Question, since I can't find it and I'm lazy, how do stats work? Is there a total amount of points to put in stats? And how do each stat play into what skills we have? Thanks

@FantasyChic

Yeah it was in a hider in the OP of this iCheck. Depending on your character cannons begin at Level 3 stats, inspired by cannons start at Level 2, complete originals begin at Level 1. Here's the breakdown of the stats, examples of a Level 10 card as well as a Level 1 card.

STAT Breakdowns

The stats for this game will include:

I.Q. - (how strong your characters are mentally, for example Brainiac would have a pretty high I.Q. where a rookie's would be less. Average human/alien would be 2.) IQ will determine if your Signature move is worth double [IQ set at 1-5] or triple [IQ set at 6-10] hp.

Strength - (1-5 has -1 damage, 6-10 has -2 damage) Average human strength would be set at 2, only characters with heightened or super strength should increase higher! EDIT: However, one could view your strength as the strength of your attacks!

Speed - (1-3 has 3 attacks per post, 4-7 has 4 attacks available, 8-10 has 5 attacks) Speed NOW also effects Defense in the same way Attack is effected by Strength. 1-5 speed regains +1 health, 6-10 is +2 health.

Attack - (number of attacks) Each player will have melee attacks that are not included on your attack stat including basic punches and kicks and alien tail swipes or bites. Attack is for things like heat vision, throw, generic super speed attack, etc...

Defense - (number of defense moves, each can be used twice for every 5 posts. If your defense is 2 and the battle lasts 4 posts you can use 4 defense moves. If the battle rages on for 7 posts you are still limited to only 4 defensive moves total in the first 5 posts. However after the 5th post when you level up your Defense would reset. Defense can't block a signature attack!)

Health - (IQ+strength+speed+defense) Health is also reset every 5 posts!

*Signature moves awarded at Level 3 do double or triple damage depending on IQ. The attack/defense itself should include your metahuman ability. The only defense against a signature attack is a signature defense that can also be a move based on your metahuman ability. Signature Defense is also the only defense you can use to help another player directly in-game from an enemy attack be it a regular attack or signature attack! At the moment you can only have one or the other, Signature Attack or Signature Defense.

Now... that's not a lot of info at all really. As far as stats go, I know once you have 6 points on strength some of you might ask "what's the point of having strength or speed any higher?" and the simple answer is writing limitations. If a character like Superman has 6 strength and a God like Zeus walks by with a strength of 8, in the context of the story Zeus would of course be viewed as stronger. Same thing applies for speed.

Power Class - you earn a stat point/level for every 5 posts in-character.

Level 1 - 16 points - 1-5 posts
Level 2 - 17 points - 6-10 posts
Level 3 - 18 points (plus signature attack or defense!) - 11-15 posts
Level 4 - 19 points - 16-20 posts
Level 5 - 20 points - 21-25 posts
Level 6 - 21 points - 26-30 posts
Level 7 - 22 points - 31-35 posts
Level 8 - 23 points - 36-40 posts
Level 9 - 24 points - 41-45 posts
Level 10 - 25 points 46-50 posts

If the game lasts long enough, and it might, we'll go beyond Level 10 and probably continue on to Level 15. Boss stats will be Level 15 to Level 20 with stats between 30-35 points making a team effort to defeat the enemy a must.

Here's an example of a stat card. Superman, although he should be a Level 15 or 20, is a Level 10 enemy with only a few of his powers and abilities shown in his attacks and defenses lists. This should show that even if you have a ton of powers, unless you place the stat points in attack or defense, you can only use the attacks and defenses listed while in battle. Superman is in the second strength class and in the second or third speed class. Had he been a Level 15 or 20 he'd have had the freeze breath and other classic attacks.

SUPERMAN Stat Card

Here's another Level 1 stat card for a character in an older game...

If anybody has ANY questions, suggestions, etc. feel free to ask or shoot me a PM!

Also @rocketrobie2 I also recolored your guy since you mentioned him being in blue before... feel free to use whichever...



~KL~

[Omega Man]

@bluetommy2 Also forgot to post yours!



Only thing I changed was 'chest puff' to 'flight' since it's a given with the flight rings. Your guy could stand with a sub boss probably with that much defense unless they use a signature attack a time or two. Each defense can be used up to two times per every five posts in-battle.

[FantasyChic]

Name - Destiny Richards

Alias - Miss Appear

Age - 22

Powers/Primary Skills - Psychic Powers: Destiny is able to harness the powers of her mind to do various things, including telekinesis and telepathy, and she can create psychic force fields

Invisibility: Destiny is able to turn invisible

Weaknesses - Psychic Susceptibility: Due to the nature of her psychic powers, she is more susceptible to psychic attacks than others may be

Physically Weak: Though her mind is strong, her body is weak. She usually relies on her mental abilities to get her out of sticky situations

Appearance - She has long, blonde hair, light blue eyes, and pale skin. She wears a pink and white costume, with a mask.

Brief Bio - Destiny always knew she was unique. She was able to see things no one else did, she was able to move things with her mind, she was able to remain unseen. However, her gifts told the world she was weird, a freak. She wasn't one of them, despite being born on Earth to two loving parents. She was branded and sentenced by her peers to live the life of a recluse. However, life has a habit of throwing monkey wrenches into the best-laid plans and Destiny was able to prove herself useful by predicting a major crisis before it happened, saving many lives in the process. She was no longer deemed a menace, but in fact, a hero. So she dons the colorful costume of her brethren and aims to save the world, one crisis at a time.

---STATS---

[FantasyChic]

This is about what she looks like. I would appreciate a micro, if you can

[Omega Man]

@FantasyChic Drop 2 stat points [I'd take 1 from attack and 1 from defense] to make her Level 1 stats since she's an original and she's good to go!
