WEATHER SCULPTRESS
Start the game with up to four Weather Glyphs of different types on this card. Instead of:
• moving, you may choose a Weather Glyph on the battlefield, and place it onto any space within 2 spaces of its current placement.
• attacking, you may place a Weather Glyph from this card power-side up onto any space within 6 spaces of Storm.
Weather Glyphs cannot be placed on any space occupied by a glyph. When Storm is destroyed, remove all Weather Glyphs that were placed by this special power from the battlefield.

ATMOSPHERIC MASTERY
Whenever the 20-sided die is rolled for a Weather Glyph, you may add or subtract 2 from the roll. Anytime Storm would be affected by a Weather Glyph, you may ignore that glyph's effects.

Aiming to represent a more modern 2010's Omega Level Mutant Storm, with more emphasis on actually creating storms that help offer battlefield control.

Feel like we landed at a pretty good place here. Any suggested tweaks? Suggestions on class and personality?

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

She's gonna be very powerful since those Glyphs are all strong. I like Wild for her personality like Storm I, but don't have any preference for Class right now.

Have we ever referenced level of the battlefield like the Thunderstorm Glyph before?

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

Yes, on Ocean Master.

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

I'm thinking point range wise, we have a fair window to work with as her powers, especially once revealed as an Omega Class Mutant, are quite strong. So I'm thinking somewhere in the 280-330 range? We can always dial them in as needed.

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

If we did her as a Queen for class, we could potentially use that as a buzz word for future Wakandan synergy. :-P

Not sure if that fits this era, though. It'd be nice to not just repeat Wild Queen, though, for sure. I could see Proud as a Wild alternative if you're looking for one.

Adjudicator? Diety? Loner? Protector? Recluse? Witch?

Not sure what, if any, synergy we're wanting for her other than Mutant. That could be a guiding light for her class.

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

Queen could be fun for the Wonder Woman (JLA) synergy. I feel like they'd have a lot in common. Especially given she could then have even more reason to team with Black Panther as he's a King.

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

Plus Wonder Woman and Storm once fought for the survivals of their opposing universes, so that's cool.

I don't think I'm going to do a Storm-married to Black Panther version at this point, so going Queen her would allow us to not even worry about that, IMO.

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

The first Storm is a Leader not a Queen IIRC. So Wild Queen wouldn't be a total repeat.

I'd definitely be in favor of Wonder Woman/Storm light synergy. It makes a kind of sense and is cool.

Re: The Book of Storm (II) (Breathing)
 

Really like what you've got here - really cool representation of her weather powers. Feels like it really shows them off in a way her initial card didn't. :up:
Should Tornado affect figures when it's placed or is moved? It doesn't seem to at present.
I'd still support a light-touch Mutant leadership power on her card - she's not dying for space and something like Mutant Leadership or Mutant Tactician would give her a light-touch role as Mutant support, which wouldn't be defining for what she does but still represent her leadership qualities, which were mostly absent from her first card, and give the Mutants the sort of low-key support that they honestly don't have a lot of.
