ICON SUPERHERO #3: Squid

Well, it's time for Superhero Number #3. Knowing my luck, it's going all be transformed heroes..........

..But for the heroes's origin type. 8 = Gimmick! Well is this is a surprise!! This means that character powers come from a device of some kind. I get to add +2 to any mind abilities.

The only way I going to trash this is the total of abilities send up being below 20.

  • Prowess: 5
  • Coordination: 7
  • Strength: 6
  • Intellect: 5
  • Awareness: 5
  • Willpower: 6

EDIT: 34 > 20. I forget to this earlier, but I just add them up.

I think I add +2 to Intellect for a total of 7.

Next up is the number of powers for this hero/heroine....the dice are rolling and they reveal to me the number: 5 — which means 3 powers. Lets find out what they are.

  • 11 = Sensory. 5 = Bottom of the Table. 4 = Postcognition. Level = 5
  • 10 = Offensive. 6 = Bottom of the Table. 3 = Blinding. (Robotic arms?). Level: 6
  • 9 = Offensive. 3 = Top of the Table. 3 b= Blast (Robotic arm with lasers?) Level: 6

Now for number of Specialties = 8 = I can pick 3 specialties.

  • Mechanics
  • Electronics
  • Computer

Stamina is next. Strength is 6. Willpower is 6. 6 + 6 = 12.

Background is next. Here we go: "Thomas Tinker was always messing away with everything — never leaving a old item on the ground for good. He hopefully to find something related to a superhero. He usually never find anything other then old wire from a FBI raid or a normal's lost wedding ring. One day, he find a burnt key while in the junkyard.. He touched and got a vision of a battle between armored foes. After a long and winding roll of old items — he discovered his late father, Reagan Tinker was the armored Squid back in the 1950s and discovered this armor. After putting the armor and testing it in midnight Trevor discovered: The left armor hand was a net launcher, while the right armor was a laser gun. He decide to honor his father by become the new Squid to shake up the underworld."

Now for Appearance: "Thomas Tinker appears to be a regular male with messy brown hair and green eyes dressed in a white T-shirt with a pocket, blue jeans, and sneakers. Squid appears to blue armored figure with red eyes."

Determination is up next. First off I have 3 powers + 3 abilities over is = That's a total of 6. 6 - 6 = 0. But they is a twist in the tale. The minimum number of Determination is 1 — so that's my number.

The only Qualities I can think of "Build Anything" — To allow him to build a item.

The only Challenges: is that he's a "Super Newbie" — that means new to the superhero business.
