The Book of Tombstone
 

_________________________________________________________________
Character Bio - Originally bullied because he was a small albino, Lonnie became the bully once he had grown taller than most of classmates in school. At 6' 7", with teeth filed into sharp points, Lonnie was an intimidating figure in the criminal world--even before he was exposed to a chemical that hardened his skin to near impenetrable and gave him enhanced strength and stamina.

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

NAME = TOMBSTONE
SECRET IDENTITY = LONNIE LINCOLN

SPECIES = MUTATE
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = CRIMINAL
PERSONALITY = COLD

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 6

LIFE = 5

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

POINTS = 160

RULE THE STREETS
Add 1 to Tombstone’s attack and defense while on an asphalt or concrete space.

INTIMIDATING PRESENCE
An opponent’s figure without the Super Strength special power that is engaged with Tombstone subtracts 1 from its normal Attack number when attacking Tombstone. Figures with a Fearless personality are not affected by Intimidating Presence.

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

He was always a character screaming for "Tough" to me, but I actually dig what you have here a lot better! Nice power set. :-)

Just to doublecheck with you Marvel guys, he definitely only qualifies for Criminal, not Crime Lord, right? It'd be so nice to have a good Marvel Crime Lord!

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

I could see Tough going on there, too, since the powers are short enough as is.

And yeah, he was Crime Lord material in The Spectacular Spider-Man, but definitely just "common crook" level. I could also see a class of Enforcer (which would probably be more accurate but less synergistic).

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

He definitely needs synergy with Kingpin.

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

Oh, I wouldn't do that. A figure without Super Strength facing him on asphalt would have to deal with a 5 life, 7 defense figure that subtracted 1 from their normal attack and added an auto shield versus their normal attack. That'd be far too much piling on and would make him feel unbeatable in certain match ups (melee squaddies would be completely screwed, for instance). I'd prefer to stick with the SP as is.

:word: No Enforcer, por favor.

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

If we added Tough I'd definitely drop his base defense - all of those defensive powers on top of each other would DEFINITELY be bananas! I don't think it's a hard necessity but I wouldn't be against it.

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

So defense 5 and the auto shield from Tough?

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

I wouldn't feel comfortable even considering Tough unless he went down at least to 4 defense.

Not sure I see the need at all, though. His life and defense do a nice job of representing his toughness, and he gets other defensive bonuses already.

Re: Tombstone - Design Phase
 

I like it! Nice and simple!


The Hood and Black Tarantula. ;)

Don't know the guy, but the write-up looks good. :up:

I'm greedy. I want more. :-D Hopefully the Owl gets done some time soon.
