Re: Public Design Workshop
I'm here for it! (Don't research her too hard or you'll get inundated with terrible Candy family name puns and realize how insulting her name is)
I'd consider "Citizen" for Etta. Student and Sidekick synergies both strike me as weirder for her and if we're going more "lunchbox" she's portrayed at different ages over time. I dig the Amazon Ally reuse. Similar to not feeling Student as a class, I'm not sure Holiday Girls is the best direction for her. I think at that point you probably ignore the first power and just use her as an Order Marker/turn efficiency hub for a Student faction. Jubilee Armor Crimson Dynamo Bailey Hoskins Magik Dash Parr Violet Parr That's the list of Students and I imagine it'll eventually build out to be a subfaction of the Mutants. I worry with that take on Holiday Girls she'll be pulled pretty far from Wonder Woman and unintentionally will make Students semi-competitive. Wonder Spirit I'm more into. I would consider cutting Holiday Girls and rolling with the first and third power. I think that's probably a good way to avoid the "Emil Hamilton Problem" (where a filler costed figure becomes competitive enough with a secondary power that people ignore its main synergies to use it that way). C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Public Design Workshop
@IAmBatman
yeah I'd already seen a lot of that, not surprised given the time period sadly. Really want to avoid a lot of that.
Student stuff can be dropped! Holliday Girls seemed like a big part of her backstory, who often fight with her and Wonder Woman, but it is a strong effect. Perhaps Holliday Girls should be represented as a squad or common hero instead. I forgot that I've been meaning to update my Jocasta design to work with students, since she was a big part of the Avengers Academy, so probably best to steer Etta away from Student regardless where that class ends up. @Tornado hard to sum up her exactly since she's been kicking about for a while, but this was on one website:
Spoiler Alert!
And this on the DC website:
Spoiler Alert!
I'm specifically focusing on the older stuff, where she's a bit more of a hands-on sidekick. The newer stuff is such a different direction that could easily be it's own design. |

Re: Public Design Workshop
Yeah I could see Darklings like treatment for Holiday Girls where they are more of an add on to Etta. To be fair, though, I’m pulling more from the newer version of the character with my thoughts.

Re: Public Design Workshop
For sure. I just don't think being an Order Marker/efficiency hub for Students is the right role in the game for Etta or what we probably want her power level to be at, so having the specific Holiday Girls for her instead of making her the Professor X for Students is probably a cleaner direction.

Re: Public Design Workshop
I think Student is going to be a fairly open class seeing as a lot of My Hero Academia characters will slot into there, as well as maybe Avengers Academy. No idea on DC stuff though. I certainly wouldn't mind Etta working with Students in some way but it's also not essential. The primary thing for her should be Wonder Woman and/or Amazons, in a couple of story lines at least she's been accepted into the Amazons.

Re: Public Design Workshop
Yeah, I think a less powerful synergy tie to Students would work well. I'm just not sure I see her as being the right fit as a key factional piece/leader for them. Though I supposes she's pretty charismatic.

Re: Public Design Workshop
Just played Boss Smiley last night. Always a fun time. Came *so* close to blowing up Scandal Savage and Occult Batman, but the bomb eventually diffused itself instead. I did at least Corrupt The Darkness and shut him down for a turn, which was nice, and helped us kill him off the first time (he had a second act when Superboy-Prime broke reality).

Re: Public Design Workshop
Some sort of Student power would be neat. Pretty much all versions of Etta where she's more closely tied to Wonder Woman, she's a student, and is described as being a good, heroic leader. Here's her abilities lists from her Golden Age wiki page:
-Athletics: Etta plays hockey and water polo for Holliday College. -Aviation: Etta has been trained to fly planes. While the plane she's most often seen piloting is Wonder Woman's Invisible Plane she has also commandeered aircraft to go on missions. By 1947 Etta had her own aircraft to use on missions. -Driving: Etta is able to drive a variety of vehicles and speed through traffic with ease when there is an emergency. She owns a car and a motorcycle. -Equestrianism. -Hand-to-Hand Combat (Basic): Etta is a capable fighter, often lifting and throwing people well over twice her size. -Leadership: Etta is the founder and leader of the Holliday Girls. She also occasionally leads contingents of Army men in fighting the Nazis. -Pedagogy: Etta taught English to Prince Sleeko's subjects on his small island nation during her break. -Tactical Analysis: Etta is quite good at analyzing the situation and coming up with flexible effective plans on the fly. The art here (which is also likely the mini I'd use, as the one closer to her Golden Age is design is one of the newer minis and quite tall) is a slightly different version to her original design, but judging by the fact she's still the leader of the Holliday Girls and has a lot of similarities to her original design, I'd be inclined to merge the versions together. EDIT: Looking at the newer mini which is in the Heroic scale, it's actually a pretty great height, standing only slightly taller than the mini used for Jean Grey, so either could be used. |
