The Book of Hellcat
 

_________________________________________________________________
Character Bio While her husband was assigned to a security post at the heavily government-subsidized Brand Corporation in New Jersey, Patsy Walker met the Beast and learned his secret identity. Walker had long idolized "super heroes," and she elicited the promise from him that in exchange for keeping his secret, he would help her become a "super heroine." Walker’s marriage eventually came to a bitter end, and she sought out the Beast, who was now a member of the Avengers, to remind him of his promise. Tagging along with the Avengers to investigate criminal activities at the Brand Corporation, Walker discovered a costume like that worn by Greer Nelson in her identity as the Cat. Putting the costume on, Walker dubbed herself Hellcat and used her natural athletic abilities to help the Avengers. Walker believed that the costume had somehow enhanced her agility and speed, and by the power of suggestion more than anything else, it had. -Marvel Comic Database.

21 November 2020 - Cable-Claw wording update

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

NAME = HELLCAT
SECRET IDENTITY = PATSY WALKER

SPECIES = HUMAN
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = ADVENTURER
PERSONALITY = CURIOUS

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 4

MOVE = 6
RANGE = 1
ATTACK = 4
DEFENSE = 5

POINTS = 75

MYSTICAL SENSES
If an opponent controls a Demon figure or a figure with the Magical Defense special power in play, after rolling for initiative each round, you may move Hellcat with her Cable-Claw 3 special power.

CABLE-CLAW 3
Instead of her normal move, Hellcat may move up to 3 spaces with Cable-Claw. When moving with Cable-Claw, Hellcat has the Flying special power, but may not move up or down more than 30 levels in a single grapple, and will not take any leaving engagement attacks. If Hellcat ends her Cable-Claw adjacent to a figure she did not begin her turn adjacent to, she may add 1 die to her attack if she attacks that figure.

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

So Mystic Senses will trump Baron von Strucker's Intelligence Network.



I know Cable-Claw 3 is patterned after Bat-Grapple, but I think it will flow better if we only keep the numbers whenever the name of the power is being referenced (a proper noun) and lose the numbers whenever it is being used as a verb.

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

Thanks for the edits Sir G. Yeah, it was patterned after Bat-Grapple and it was ugly with all the power name references in there. :)

As far as Mystical Senses trumping BvS's Intelligence Network, or others that say "immediately" after initiative roll. I could go either way and have a d20 roll off if that's what people would prefer. I was just trying to add a little something to make it a little more special and useful.

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

I'm not a huge fan of Close Combat Expert... I figure she qualifies, but I'd rather just bump her stats a bit and leave her as a two-power card.

I'd also prefer "Patsy Walker" for her Secret Identity, but otherwise she looks good to me.

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

I had originally had her without it and added it at the last minute. I could see 4 attack/5 defense. in place of CCE.

I agree, I like "Patsy Walker" better, but put her full name there just because sometimes people are weird about full names.

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

I'm cool with Patsy Walker.

I'm good either way on CCE. It certainly fits the character.

Good power selection and stats and everything overall. Another friend for the Fan Four. :-) She looks fun.

MYSTICAL SENSES
If an opponent controls a Demon figure or a figure with the Magical Defense special power in play, after rolling for initiative and before any other powers are activated on any other Army Card at the start of the round (?), you may move Hellcat with her Cable-Claw 3 special power.

Some wording suggestions there (not sure on the second one).

Updated SP and sent to ERB

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

From David:

I guess we could go with just the standard "if you win initiative" timing instead of the before any other powers are applied route. It would be cleaner I suppose.

Re: The Book of Hellcat - Design Phase
 

From Porkins:

Well you'd only trigger Mystical Senses if you won initiative.
