_________________________________________________________________

Character Bio - Bizarnage was made through a experiment at Project Cadmus in an attempt to replicate alien DNA. The white, goopy creature they created went insane and began destroying everything and everyone in its way. Spider-Boy soon arrived and fought him. Bizarnage wanted to be Spider-Boy, so he tried to kill him, but was eventually defeated by getting tricked by Spider-Boy to get sucked into an energy containment unit. - (Spider-Man wiki, 2020)

NAME = BIZARNAGE

SPECIES = Symbiote
UNIQUENESS = Unique Hero
CLASS = Antagonist
PERSONALITY = Insane

SIZE/HEIGHT = Medium 5

LIFE = 6

MOVE = 5
RANGE = 2
ATTACK = 5
DEFENSE = 6

POINTS = 220

TWISTED OBSESSION
At the start of the game, choose an enemy Unique Hero. Bizarnage adds 2 to his Attack number when attacking the chosen Hero and any blanks rolled by the chosen Hero while defending against an attack from Bizarnage count as unblockable hits on Bizarnage.

PHANTOM WALK
Bizarnage can move through all figures and is never attacked when leaving an engagement.

SYMBIOTE STEALTH CLAMBER
Once per turn, before, during or after Bizarnage's normal movement, you may place Bizarnage on any empty space within 2 spaces of his current location that is no more than 40 levels up or down. When using Symbiote Stealth Clamber, Bizarnage will not take any leaving engagement attacks. If Bizarnage is placed adjacent to an enemy figure that he was not engaged with at the start of his turn, that figure rolls 1 fewer die when defending against Bizarnage's normal attack this turn.

SUPER STRENGTH

Painting Guide

This is a very simple repaint, get any of the 3 figures linked in the first post of this thread, they all have the same mold.

1. Paint the entire figure white.
2. Add a black wash to the entire figure to enhance the details of the figure.
3. Dry brush on more white paint on the raised parts of the figure.
4. Paint on his eyes and fill in his mouth with black paint.

And obligatory @Ronin tag for a new Symbiote.

Interesting - haven't read anything Amalgum so no idea on the theme. He doesn't feel much like Carnage OR Bizarro, but definitely feels like a "big bad."

I do feel like him getting an attack boost as long as he's in range, and getting possible auto-wounds when attacking the target, feels a little strange. But that may be intentional? Like a "hunt down everyone around you" type vibe?

The theme on the attack boost and giving the chosen Hero counterstrike is that he is obsessed with becoming Spider-Boy and killing him to take his spot, but that's used as bait to trap him. So he gets a boost, but the chosen Hero can take advantage of him sometimes.

So their Carnage riff really kind of has more in common with Venom?
...O...kay...

[tcglkn]

I mean it also has almost nothing to do with Bizarro who is supposedly the other half of the character but here we are.

I'm not as familiar with that, so can't comment.

Ah, for writing!

[Ronin]

The writing may be iffy but the portmanteau is top tier! Always did like this guy's name, even if I'd never read the story.

I'm a little iffy on Elusive and I'd be tempted to streamline down there to either a movement thing or a defensive thing. (Just don't think Telepath/MD stuff is key to capture here, even if it's logical) Otherwise dig the write-up, though.

(Also I last-minute tweaked the Symbiote Clamber text on you, so that'll need an update)

[tcglkn]

I could just give him disengage and pump his defense up a bit to cover the other part.

Went ahead and got the current Clamber wording and updated that.

[Ronin]

Sounds groovy!
