The Book of Armor
 

_________________________________________________________________
Character Bio - Armor (Hisako Ichiki) is a teenage mutant student at the Xavier Institute who becomes an X-Man. She can create a psionic forcefield around her, giving her enhanced durability and strength. Hisako's psionic armor acts as an extension of (although can be much larger than) her own body, which enhances her strength level and resistance to injury. While using her armor, Hisako has demonstrated the ability to hurl Wolverine and even assisted Colossus in restraining a small ship capable of breaking orbit from lifting off. (ComicVine, 2011)

PSIONIC ARMOR
When Armor defends against an attack, each shield rolled counts for an additional block, unless the attacking figure is a Telepath or has the Sensory Assault special power. Armor's Defense number cannot be reduced by any special power.

SUPER STRENGTH

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

I don't know anything about her, but this looks like a nice design Tickle.

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

She's fairly simple. I would compare her to Jubilee. While she was an X-Man for a time period, she never really developed much on her own and always teamed up with someone like Wolverine or Colossus. Her only real power is her Armor which gives her tremendous strength. She's pretty defensive about it using her armor and doesn't like to harm people much so I gave her a solid attack, but not a powerful one.

Hopefully that helps you understand what I'm trying to accomplish here. Any questions?

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

Sounds good. :D

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

Looks cool to me! I don't know about "unfortunate" as a personality, though ...

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

It's not the first time it's been used. ;)

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

That's Unfortunate.

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

How about Hapless or Wretched?

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

Simple and elegant design. C3G needs this design. Thanks.

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

Looks straight forward enough. I don't know the character.

Question though, is "Mutant card" the correct usage? It seems strange to me that the card would be mutant.

Re: The Book of Armor - Design
 

That's how it's worded on Jubilee's card. I just use precedents to model my wording after.
