World of Heroes

I assure you, looks will be given, and they will be intense

Ok, not really, but I wanna do this thing if you're still cool with it.

So what is everyone else going to do for the Eclipse fight? Justin will use his unbalancing attempt to get out of the way.

And Sisyphus just gave up and told Boulder to retreat. Did you expect him to put a last stand for the sake of ego? Nah...

Yeah, just use the unbalancing strike to get away.

Then Eclipse'll leave.

I'm always cool with whatever. It's just a matter of whether something can come up naturally in a game instead of being forced for its own sake.

Sure, we'll see if it works out.

There'll always be other battles. Also maybe there's not enough time, I think things are supposed to be wrapping up, given the context of some posts I've seen here?

Some random vigilante names: El Rey Polloloco, Blingman, Doctor Herring, Suicider, Metalhair...

I was asking if I could write in a stream so I could have my character flood the place, but I got no answer so I guess I'll just stay back for a while.

Wait, 'The Crazy Chicken King?'

He prefers being addressed as His Majesty.

I'm more interested in Blingman, Suicider and Metalhair. The last two sound awfully like some Nineties Anti-Heroes

Though so does Rush.

Speaking of names, that gets me thinking. Kho, are we allowed to suggest/toss out NPC ideas? I mostly just want to do that to provide nifty superpowers, and to add a bit of backstory regarding Assimilator's victims. You're fully capable of making NPCs on your own, I just thought it would be fun to provide some ideas.

I forgot Rey Polloloco's sidekick: Puercopollo! (Chickenpig!)

I'm not sure. I'm just tossing names because some of them are hilarious and I'm bored.

Well I already have one idea regarding a victim's of Assimilator: A speedster who lost their left leg, and thus couldn't run superhumanly fast anymore. However, they learn to make this up by using their speed more creatively, focusing on extremely rapid punches for example.

Though names, names... The Fell Beast Vita, huh? A demonically created magic lifeform whose main power is mook making, with stronger mooks taking longer to produce.

How about the speedster is a sharpshooter, because he has all the time in the world to aim.

Or he could get a pegleg, and become the SPINTOP MAN!

Deadleg?

Yeah, the speedster would end up using some of the side abilities of super speed to make up their disability, so becoming a sharpshooter makes sense. In addition, if they do have to quickly move, he can still use his remaining leg to perform powerfully long jumps (or hop really quickly if they don't mind looking stupid). He may or may not be a registered hero, but either way his missing leg was replaced with a cybernetic leg. So spikes to hold him in place, a little disconnecty thing so the leg can rotate, and viola! Infinite roundhouse kick.

As always, Nman, I bow in acknowledgement of your superiority.

And now I picture that happening with a certain Dead or Alive song.

Another one of her victims would be someone with sound manipulation powers, who due to lacking a manual, initially thought their power was sonic screams. Upon losing their vocal cords to her, they realize the real nature of their power and as a result ends up a lot more potent due to their disability. What is it with me and having supers realize/discover/reinvent their powers via personal injury for this?

I don't know, maybe 'cause it's interesting making up scenarios for that?

How about Resonance?

Kkutwar, 1) we really need to finish the Justin and Eclipse fight. and 2) why are all your character ideas...well, grotesque?

Again, am I allowed to flood the place? Any response would be fine, I'd rather have negative feedback on my ideas than none at all.
