Re: The Book of Venom (Eddie Brock) (II) (Design)
NAME = VENOM
SECRET IDENTITY = EDDIE BROCK SPECIES = SYMBIOTE UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = VAGABOND PERSONALITY = SELF-RIGHTEOUS SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 7 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 6 DEFENSE = 2 POINTS = 240 SYMBIOTE CLAMBER Once per turn, before, during or after Venom's normal movement, you may place Venom on any empty space within 2 spaces of his current location that is no more than 40 levels up or down. Venom will take any leaving engagement attacks when moving with this special power. If Venom 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 Venom's normal attack this turn. RESILIENCE If Venom would receive one or more wounds from an enemy figure's attack, special power, or leaving engagement attack, ignore one of those wounds. LETHAL PROTECTOR After an enemy figure adjacent to Venom attacks any figure you control other than Venom, you may roll an unblockable attack die against that enemy figure.

Comic:
Spoiler Alert!
Mini:
Spoiler Alert!
Background: Grungy urban vibe for sure. Crappy alleyways or abandoned warehouses or what have you. Pretty much anything that looks like it could have been a set for the first TMNT live-action movie works. Last edited by Ronin; March 8th, 2020 at 01:08 PM. |

Completely dropping range? Interesting, but seems like it makes sense.

Re: The Book of Venom (Eddie Brock) (II) (Design)
I like it. Lethal Protector would be great paired with a Daring Decoy figure, but I don't think there's an easy way to make that happen.

I know Dare Devil went to San Fran for a while, and the X-men had their island right off the coast there, did he get any cross-over stories with them in San Fran?

Punisher, Juggernaut, and Morbius all showed up in San Fran while Venom was living there and guest starred in the early 90s Venom run, though. ("Too many guest stars" was actually a bit of a problem) |

Yeah, he can't directly bond with any Decoys. Definitely still a worthwhile pairing to explore in generalist armies, though.

Re: The Book of Venom (Eddie Brock) (II) (Design)
Oh, a quick note on the mini plans here: we were originally planning on using the Nano Metal Fig, but a lot of that was because it was a bit bulkier than the Clix minis and that was helpful for the "intimidating medium 5 figures" thing that we had in the write-up at the time. So we're not totally locked into that, but it's still an option.
I'll take pictures of a few options and we can figure out which one we want. |

Re: The Book of Venom (Eddie Brock) (II) (Design)
I do miss the "height intimidation" stuff because that's fun flavor, but it's probably the easiest fluff to cut. Kill your darlings...
I'd probably go with something to capture the theme of the first power a bit more, name-wise. Symbiote Sneak Attack? Symbiote Pounce? Since it's more than just straight up movement. He's been hashed out pretty thoroughly so I'm pretty much fine with him as-is. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Venom (Eddie Brock) (II) (Design)
Yeah, I'm not too set on the name. I mulled it over for a bit, but I didn't have anything I really liked there. Honestly not sure "Symbiote _____" is a winning formula there. Pretty much anything tacked onto that sounds a little clunky to me.
Oh, one little change I made from the version you pitched in the LCW was that I made it so that he does take LEAs. Usually it won't matter since he's got Unstoppable Resilience, but it feels thematically right to me that he's relying on being able to tank stuff to break away, and characters that can hit him harder than he's expecting (like Mongul's Champion or Rocket (I)), or have some other disengage effect (like Warrior Engagement types) can catch him off-guard. |

I just learned what "clamber" means.
