Super Hobos

[Frizan]

This idea came to my head while being a dipshit and playing with hair-straighteners and acting like they're claws. Further inspiration comes from the TF2 Soldier and his robot costume. Welcome to Super Hobos, a revolutionary spam game! The goal is to create a plethora of super hero characters who also happen to be hobos. There is only one limitation to characters: Their gear and outfits can only be made up of stuff that is likely to be found in trash heaps or made from scraps of junk. No damn "Mary Sue the Hobo" character with a Gauss rifle. Mister Robosnaps Mister Robosnaps is your average everyday man(status as a hobo excluded). Who is also a robot. Or at least that's what he thinks. In reality, he is just a hobo dressed up in a cardboard robot costume he's pieced together out of boxes, plastic cups for "buttons", and dried up markers for coloring. It's the perfect disguise, and fools nobody all rotten ne'er-do-wells. His weapons of choice are two cracked and frayed hair straighteners he's precariously wired up to some cheap dollar-store double-A batteries. He snaps viciously at his foes, nipping them and giving them fairly irritating burns. After dispensing justice, Mister Robosnaps hurries back to his dumpster-cave next door to the Wendy's on Main Street.

I honestly can't believe this game didn't get further than the OP. This game sounds AMAZING!!!

Sergent Maximus After Nam, PTSD hit him hard, so he turned to the bottle. This cost him his home. One day he was contacted by three ghosts, the ghost of wars past (a civil war veteran), the ghost of wars present (a Nam vet, like him), and the ghost of war future (a cyborg with a laser gun from the year 2014). They told him that he must build an army to fight the evil PTSD monsters that attack soldiers everywhere. Thus, Sergent Maximus was born. He carries a rubber band powered paperclip gun, an airsoft gun that jams every few shots, a shiv made from a tooth brush, and a med kit, consisting of whatever he could find on the dead or stoned people he comes across. He is most often seen at his recruitment booth, a tarp-building in the vacant lot behind the VFD. He also raises money to by Dr. Jack Daniel's Miracle Elixir, mostly by collecting scrap metal to sell at the scrap yard, though occasionally he asks nice people on the streets to help his cause.

The River Monster. A man who has spent all of his retirement funds on ales and fishing, The River Monster took to crime fighting when he caught to huge cat fish in succession. Instead of making a meal out of the two monsters he knew he needed to use them to slap all people who pass by his riverside home evil doers. He knows that his fish-wielding skill will be needed whenever he finds a needle. He promptly injects the needle into his thigh, grabs to fish, and brings pain o all he comes across. On occasion he will also use his make shift fishing pole to fight crime. A true hero. This kind of stinks, but I felt like participating.

Cheesus A man who is the Splitting Image of a dirty Jesus, this man wears a metal garbage can chest, and a helmet made of Chinese take-out bins. This man occasionally finds and makes some money, which he uses to buy lots of cans of Spray Cheese. He has a badly spray painted cross on his chest and he calls himself Cheesus! Messiah of all the Cheeses! He sprays villains with his spray cheese, and takes money from them after he uses his patented Cheese grip Judo Flip! He smells bad too, so people sometimes call him Stinky Cheesus.
