NAME = TRUNKS
CROSSOVER SYMBOL

SPECIES = SAIYAN
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = CHALLENGER
PERSONALITY = DETERMINED

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 5

MOVE = 6
RANGE = 1
ATTACK = 4
DEFENSE = 5

POINTS = 250

RAPID SWORD STREAM
Once per round, instead of moving normally, you may choose up to 3 figures within 6 clear sight spaces of Trunks and roll one unblockable attack die against each of them. If you roll a blank, that figure subtracts 1 from its Defense number when defending against Trunks’ normal attack this turn. After using this special power, you may place Trunks adjacent to one of the chosen figures.

SHINING SWORD ATTACK
After Trunks attacks an adjacent figure with his normal attack, if at least one skull was rolled, he may attack again, either:
• with his normal attack against an adjacent figure, rolling 1 fewer attack die for each subsequent attack; or
• with his Burning Attack Special Attack.

BURNING ATTACK SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 5. Attack 4.
After an opponent rolls defense dice against this special attack, you may place that figure on an empty space exactly X spaces from its current position, where X is the number of skulls rolled in the attack. A figure moved by this special attack never takes any leaving engagement attacks but can receive any falling damage that may apply.

So what's the reason for breaking the Crossover symbol rules here?

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Future Trunks is from an alternate future and he hangs out in the regular DBZ universe where there is also a native kid Trunks.

He's definitely the one doing the crossing over

[tcglkn]

Then we should be designing regular Trunks first.

[Karat]

What SW said plus I polled for a direction and seemed like I had majority support to just start it now.

I'm also planning to start up the other Trunks after Medusa wraps to make it a non issue.

[Soundwarp SG-1]

I feel like when there are two designs being made back to back by the same dude to be released in the same wave we can be a little loose on rules.

No need to be a bad Prime Directive TNG episode.

[tcglkn]

Well I missed that poll, but I'm just curious why we needed to start the crossover design first? Just seems like you're trying to cause problems after the recent discussion we had about crossover symbols.

[Arch-vile]

That's not a fair accusation Tickle, considering Karat asked permission first and multiple Heroes voiced support.

Cool design! The Kikoukenjutsu sword style is a Kid Trunks thing only, to my knowledge. I'd recommend calling that power Shining Sword Attack or Rapid Sword Stream. (Both the DBZ wiki pages on those attacks have a few alternate names we could use as well.)

I think there's a risk that the +3 Attack pip is the best option of those by far. I might drop it to a +2 attack, increase Trunks' base attack to 5, and modify the third pip to 3 skulls (or inflicting a wound) allowing the additional attack.

[tcglkn]

A minority of Heroes (2) agreed to it and there are rules in place. I just wanted to know what the justification for specifically needing to do this design first was.
