Character Bio - Although originally introduced as a thief and an opponent for Batman, Catwoman's status as hero or villain is ambiguous; she has her own moral code and has occasionally teamed up with Batman and other heroes. She represents a gray area in Batman's otherwise black and white life where the line between good and evil blurs, and his attraction to her stems from this perception that, in her way, she's kind of a female version of himself: another dark, beautiful creature that prowls the night.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

• Q - How do I climb with Catwoman?
  A -
  Level - heights of elevation on the battlefield
  Space - horizontal locations on the battlefield that figures can occupy
  When you would move with a flying figure, you count each space as you go while ignoring elevations. When Catwoman climbs, you count each space as you go basically ignoring up to 2 levels. So Catwoman moves just one space from level 0 to a level 2 hill and only used 1 movement. She could also move one space from level 0 to a level 4 hill and only use 2 movement.
• Q: Catwoman counts ladder rungs 2 for 1 since they are elevation changes?
  A: No, 1 ladder rung equals 2 levels, so the bonus of the ladder is doing the same thing as the Climb ability.

-Strategy, Tactics and Tips-

• Catwoman's Whip Lash Special Attack is especially great against Heroes with multiple lives. Because her whip cannot target more than one figure in a turn, it is not very effective against squads. To maximize Catwoman's potential with her Whip Lash Special Attack, you should always try and remain unengaged from enemy figures, because to use it, you cannot be engaged. You can avoid engagements by rolling well for her Stray 13. However, if your opponent engages you, and you fail to successfully Stray when they attack you, you may want to risk taking a leaving engagement attack on your turn so that you can use her Whip.

[IAmBatman]

NAME = CATWOMAN
SECRET IDENTITY = SELINA KYLE

SPECIES = HUMAN
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = THIEF
PERSONALITY = TRICKY

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 4

LIFE = 9

MOVE = 6
RANGE = 1
ATTACK = 3
DEFENSE = 2

POINTS = 145

STRAY 13
If Catwoman is attacked and at least 1 skull is rolled, roll the 20-sided die to Stray 13. If you roll 1-12, roll defense dice normally. If you roll 13 or higher, Catwoman takes no damage and may immediately move up to 4 spaces. During her Straying move, Catwoman is never attacked when leaving an engagement. Catwoman can Stray only if she ends her Straying move not adjacent to any enemy figures.

EXPERT CLIMBING
When moving up levels of height to move onto a space with Catwoman, do not count spaces for the first two levels and only count one space for each two levels after the first two. You may ignore Catwoman's height of 4 when climbing. Catwoman never takes falling damage or major falling damage.

WHIP LASH SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 2. Attack 4.
Choose a non-adjacent small or medium figure whose base is not higher or lower than 3 levels from Catwoman's base. Catwoman may continue attacking with her Whip Lash Special Attack until the chosen figure no longer receives any wounds. Catwoman cannot attack more than four times in a single turn.



Nice choice on the bio! I can't remember, are there any synergies out there for Tricky figures? If there aren't yet, I'm sure we'll make some eventually. Maybe for Thieves as well ...

Otanashi's tricky speed?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Do the other official Books for tricky figures (like the Krav) mention Otonashi's tricky speed, or is Otonashi's book the only one that mentions it?

Edit: Checked the Book for the Krav Maga Agents, and they don't mention anything under Synergies offered.

What about Agent Skahen being able to move someone that's Tricky with Cover Fire?

Ah, good call! That should be there under synergies received. I knew there was something. Nice pull, Hahma.
And since her name will never appear in an official book, I'm thinking we ought to put down the bit about Otonashi and Tricky Speed under synergies offered.

Cover Fire reads, "tricky figure that follows Vydar."

It'd be cool, but no dice.

[IAmBatman]

Touche! Well played, sir!

Nice catch Xn FM. That was my bad, I just did a quick glance.

Sorry Bats.

[IAmBatman]

It's all good. We'll just make a C3G version of Cover Fire ...

Relax Bats, your not exactly the "attention to details" kinda guy, your more of the "bigger picture" guy.

Give me some time gentlemen, and I will have all of this stuff up soon. I was sick today on my wife's twenty third birthday, so I am a little bit behind.

Hope you feel better Griff. Wish your wife a happy birthday. E-gads, she's just turning 23 and my oldest daughter will be 18 in April and going to college next fall.

Well you youngsters can help keep me feeling young, though I still don't have your energy level any more. I'll try to keep up
