@Bartimaeus Appreciate you asking me, thanks. I think I would prefer to have the only snake gimmick, but if I switch off to my other idea you're welcome to it.
I could be interested in this. I have a couple ideas for artifact hunters:
A snake-beastman artifact hunter that is kind of like a ninja, and has snake/poison themed abilities and artifact.
An artifact hunter that's totally insane and thinks artifact are remnants of the gods that he can use to communicate with them. Totally off his nut but is surprisingly competent and has weird artifacts that only he can figure out for some reason.
Okay, I am considering offering up the estranged son of an A-Lister superhero. Kind of like an evil/angsty Superboy scenario.
Powers, I was gonna put him in Strength with a general Flying Brick power-set. Trying to think of what to add as his gimmick though, maybe something space/stars themed?
@Sep Yeah I could still use an example of what you'd consider to be a proper relic. It's not the form I'm unsure about as much as the abilities it would grant.
@EchoicChamber Can we get a little context for the world this academy exists in? Are there superheroes? Other academies? What causes powers, some X Gene or can it be basically anything? Is there magic? Supernatural beings? Aliens?
