NAME = DEADPOOL
SECRET IDENTITY = WADE WILSON

SPECIES = MUTATE
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO

"ME FIRST!"
Start the game with the Glyph of Teleportation Belt on this card. Once per turn, if an enemy figure moves at least one space and ends its movement within clear sight of Deadpool, Deadpool may immediately use his Teleportation Belt as long as he is placed adjacent to that enemy figure. After placing him in this way, he must roll an unblockable attack die against each figure adjacent to him, one at a time.

MERC WITH A MOUTH
Enemy figures attacking Deadpool with a normal attack roll one additional attack die but subtract one skull from whatever is rolled. After rolling defense dice against an attack that targeted Deadpool, if he did not receive any wounds, you may roll one unblockable attack die against the attacking figure.

HEALING FACTOR X
After taking a turn with Deadpool, remove one Wound Marker from this card. At the end of the round, you may reveal an "X" Order Marker on this card to remove one Wound Marker from each Army Card you control with the Healing Factor X special power.



The original design; looking back.

Just clarifying that the Once per turn clause there is intended to be once per figure turn.

I'd just word the red part the way I did so that people don't think they have to check for it every time a figure ends their movement in clear sight of Deadpool since he has to be placed adjacent.

Also in the unblockable attack dice supposed to be one at a time against all figures or just one die that affects all figures?

Once these are resolved should be good for carding.

Thanks Tickle, I'll hit this after work tonight.

I got this one for a better Bob so I could take pics of it.

Not sure on background stuff, whatever Arkham decides'll probably be good. Something like a secret lab or abandoned warehouse would be cool I guess. Or Deadpool's pad.

The Teleportation Belt just feels really random on this design. It doesn't interact with anything else on the card and it's thrown into another power.

[Splash]

I was thinking about that, since Tornado mentioned that as well. I was trying to think of a way of incorporating it offensively, but another thing that's been mentioned is this design shouldn't mimic DPI's double attack, so I wasn't sure how.

Here's an idea I had that might make it more interesting that could possible replace Merc with a Mouth and tie in his 4th Wall breaking.

Start the game with the Glyph of Teleportation Belt on this card. Deadpool may attack with his normal attack up to X times at any point before, during, or after his normal move as long as he is on a space where he could end his movement, where X is the number of players. He cannot attack the same figure more than once.

[IAmBatman]

I think the second and third powers are in a good place. I'd either cut the teleportation belt from the first power or replace the first power with something more teleportation belt focused.

Maybe something like Batman JL-II's At the Ready?

[Arkham]

Yeah, I don't think the proposed alternative power really involves the belt any more than as-is, so I'd concur that either involving it more with it somehow makes sense, or just remove it.

For the last power name, I'd drop "Ah" from it to keep the power name on 1 line for text space purposes.

[Splash]

I like where this design is and don't want to run into a wall breaking half of it down to incorporate the Belt. In the interest of having a fun and cool DP design, I'll take everyone's advice and remove the belt line, so it doesn't further drive discussion and we can get at any of the small bits of the rest of it that might need attention.

I'll be happy with Weasel bringing in the belt. I think there is good justification for Weasel acting as sort of a Lucius Fox type in game for Deadpool (I think at one point the batteries ran out on it because Weasel had used them to charge a Nintendo controller or something). And it would be kind of weird having Weasel hand out the belt and there's a DP who already has it.

[Splash]

Another note, while this is still breathing, I would like Mental Shield to go on if possible. He is legitimately immune to Telepaths. Or maybe something like this on Merc.

MERC WITH A MOUTH
Enemy figures attacking Deadpool with a normal attack count all blanks rolled as skulls. After rolling defense dice for Deadpool against an opponent's attack, if he does not receive any wounds, the attacking figure receives a wound for each blank Deadpool rolled, or two wounds if that figure is a Telepath.

[MrNobody]

I’ll be honest, I think that complicates the design more than neeeded.

Like not disagreeing it’s a Deadpool thing, just when making a C3G design, you often have to cut certain elements. Every Doctor Who can’t be dual-classed as a Telepath, for example.

I could see a potential direction for this design where you completely nix the first power and just do a Teleport Belt power and Mental Shield. But I’m assuming that’s not the direction you want to go here.
