Since we're doing Neo while within the Matrix, wouldn't he be a Program?

Would that be his class or species? :shock:

:duh: I guess that would be his species if we use it. I was thinking that Agent Smith had the class of Program, but it is his Species. Nevermind.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

I'm really liking the new draft.

My two cents on the classifications are

General-Aquilla
Species-Human
Class-Fighter
Personality-Resolute

I really see Neo as being spiritually connected to the M-43 Resistance Fighters, seeing as they have similar back stories and goals. So I see him sharing most of their traits.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

Hey guys sorry I have not been around for a while. I dont currently have internet at home. Until I do I withdraw myself from the rotation. However when I can get to the library to check on things I will pop in and make a comment or two.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

No worries, McHotcakes. HoSS has been stealing time from this project on us due to the release date right around the corner and all the stress that goes along with it. I anticipate that we'll be moving full speed ahead after May 4th.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

This project hasn't died has it? :(

I don't think it's died. It's in a coma, but not dead. HoSS really put a strain on a few of us and now summer vacation has spread among the ranks. Hopefully we'll get this back on its feet soon. :D

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

Agreed. In my neck of the woods, The Gang of Four (Kolakaski, Shermandavies, Chas and myself) are looking to play on a map called Escape from Endor. We're just as stoked about HoSS as anyone. But I'll finish writing up my Blob unit soon.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

Did we ever finalize Neo? I think we were still hammering out the details - General, Class, Personality, Point Cost...

Quote:

Neo
Aquilla or Einar

Human
Unique Hero
Champion
Bold
Medium 5

Life 4
Move 6
Range 7
Attack 3
Defense 4
Points ???

INFORMATION DOWNLOAD
Begin the game with up to 6 Power Glyphs. At the start of the game, before placing Order Markers, choose 1 Power Glyph and place it on this card. Once per game, after revealing a numbered Order Marker on this card, if Neo is unengaged, you may also reveal the "X" Order Marker on this card to place 1 additional Power Glyph on this card.

LOTS OF GUNS
When Neo attacks with his normal attack, he may attack one additional time. When Neo uses his Lots Of Guns special power, he may not use any Power Glyph on his card that would allow him to attack more than two times this turn.

MANIPULATE THE MATRIX
When Neo rolls defense dice against an attacking figure who is not adjacent, one shield will block all damage. When Neo rolls defense dice against an adjacent attacking figure, if he rolls at least one shield, the most wounds he may take for this attack is one.

Additional Power Glyph possibilities:
Phantom Walk
Ninjutsu Barrage Special Attack
Freerunner (from the Ezio Auditore design)
-already have Whirlwind Assault to use as Kung Fu

I can go along with Aquilla - Neo's story does feel like a good fit with the Mariedians.
I still see him as a Champion.
Conflicted might be an apt Personality
Points...150-ish

Also, are we OK with the 3 additional power glyphs?

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

I like all of your suggestions, but I prefer Conflicted to Champion. This version of Neo is prior to being the all powerful Neo of the later films. His personality should reflect that time period, also.

Might've Missed It

Was there a discussion about it being okay that he bonded with knights?

~Dysole, not really sure if that's the best

I'm fine with a change as long as the class fits Neo.
