The Book of Green Lantern (Simon Baz) C3G DC SUPER SECRET EXCLUSIVE 79 FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS: GREEN ENERGY http://heroscapers.com/c3g/released/...imon_comic.png Comic PDF http://heroscapers.com/c3g/released/...Simon_mini.png Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the War of Light set. Its model number and name are #108 / Simon Baz. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - Simon Baz is an American of Lebanese descent, born and raised in Michigan. Baz has a tattoo on his forearm of Alshajaea (which means "Courage" in Arabic), despite tattoos being considered Harem by his culture and family. He ends up being found worthy by a Green Lantern ring after being arrested while stealing cars to sell them for parts. Once he is equipped with the ring, he attempts to visit his family, but is interrupted by the arrival of the Justice League. Knowing he cannot take on the League by himself (except maybe Batman), he allows Wonder Woman to lasso him. The Lasso of Truth causes a poor reaction to his ring which was programmed by Sinestro, which startles the Justice League and causes him to run. He goes on a quest to redeem himself but has some issues getting the ring to work for him fully so he carries a gun with him. Over time he becomes a full fledged Green Lantern and even works with the Justice League on a regular basis alongside his partner, Jessica Cruz. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

NAME = Green Lantern
SECRET IDENTITY = Simon Baz SPECIES = Human UNIQUENESS = Unique Hero CLASS = Officer PERSONALITY = Stubborn SIZE/HEIGHT = Medium 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 4 ATTACK = 3 DEFENSE = 3 POINTS = 260 GREEN POWER BATTERY 3 Start the game with 3 green Battery Markers on this card. Add one to Green Lantern's Move, Range, Attack, and Defense numbers for each green Battery Marker on this card. EMERALD SIGHT If you win initiative and the difference between your roll and the next highest roll is 10 or higher, you may view all Order Markers on opponents’ Army Cards. ALSHAJAEA After moving and before attacking with Green Lantern, you may choose Green Lantern or an adjacent figure and remove a green Battery Marker from this card. You may remove any marker on that figure’s Army Card, or two markers if they are both Wound Markers. Order Markers may only be removed with this special power once per round. SUPER STRENGTH FLYING |

Re: The Book of Green Lantern (Simon Baz) - Design
One thought I had was how to represent his gun. I know that's what the base range is for, but what if it was a special attack instead? That would really sell the theme for me, that he's carrying the gun for when his ring fails or runs out of juice, instead of it "stacking" with the power of the ring.

I'm against putting power names in made up langues.

Re: The Book of Green Lantern (Simon Baz) - Design
I mean it's Arabic, not made up...

Re: The Book of Green Lantern (Simon Baz) - Design
It's cool if you still don't wanna use it, just wanted to be clear it's not a made up language. I can just go with Quat Alshajaea like johnny had.

Re: The Book of Green Lantern (Simon Baz) - Design
What is Quat Alshajaea? Power name should be Power of Courage if that is the name of the power.

I'd dial back the healing to one marker just to emphasize the more unique stuff (OM removal and other marker removal). The Blue Lanterns cover healing pretty well already.

Re: The Book of Green Lantern (Simon Baz) - Design
Sounds like Johnny just made up the name based on a tattoo seen on his arm. Not sure what the power name should be, only that it should be in the same language as the rest of our cards. Any cutesy use of non-English words/terms in card powers would need to be strongly supported by theme (like Zatanna). Gambit doesn't have any French words on his card. Black Panther doesn't use his native tongue for power names. None of our Russian cards use Russian. Nightcrawler doesn't have any German named powers. Silver Samurai doesn't use Japanese names for his powers. And on and on and on.

I prefer he be an Officer - he and Jess have been JL regulars, so I like them being eligible for the odd JL marker power.
