You know, I actually thought about that! But in C3G you can always punch intangible things anyway. I'll just have to hum it myself whenever he attacks ghosts.

The one odd thing is he has ES which is ranged but no ranged attack.
So he can only attack from range if attacked first from range.

We'd have to approve Dr. Mcninja first, but I don't see why he wouldn't make it. He'd have my Yea vote for sure.

Dr. McNinja already failed a previous vote.

I'm kind of surprised by that, and I wonder what the reasoning was. Things have changed enough (new Heroes, and Dr. McNinja has had a sprint run), that I think he might pass a new vote.

I guess you changed your mind then, TB.

He does do shurikens and such sometimes, but not enough that I felt his normal attack should be ranged, and the Evasive Strike felt more important to me than some kind of shuriken special attack. (I specifically wanted ES over other similar powers as a nod to the Doc's Batman obsession)

I'm also a little surprised. McNinja does have the need for a custom figure working against him, but that's really it. Theme-wise, he's the main character of a superhero comic. Fits right in.

That's entirely possible. I think back when it was voted on (which I can't remember if I was voting or not), there were no print versions of McNinja and we were drawing a line against web-only.

I'd be okay with that. He essentially only carries a few ninja stars or throwing daggers and thus only uses them on defense as a counter strike type action rather then use them all up on a purely offensive move.

If it is theme based then go for it. It just seemed weird without the theme context.
Evasive Strike would be a nice power for my Wu Wang design.

I chatted with Trollbrute a little bit about Drusilla, and he suggested that I post this in the Public Design Thread and get some feedback from the other Buffy fans.



NAME = DRUSILLA

SPECIES = UNDEAD
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = PSYCHOPATH
PERSONALITY = INSANE

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 5

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

POINTS = ???

LIMITED PRECOGNITION 8
Before rolling for initiative, if there is at least one unrevealed Order Marker on this card, you may roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 8 or higher, you may choose an opponent's Army Card and view all unrevealed Order Markers on the chosen card.

MESMERIZING GAZE
After moving this figure, you may choose an adjacent Unique Hero. Roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 13 or higher, for the rest of this round the chosen figure may not attack, and rolls 2 fewer defense dice. Undead figures and destructible objects are not affected by Mesmerizing Gaze.

HEALING
At the end of the round, remove 1 Wound Marker from this card.


One of the things TB had to say was that he didn't get the theme behind Mesmerizing Gaze. I wanted to clarify that Drusilla has hypnotized people before, most notably was Kendra the vampire slayer before she killed her, and Giles to interrogate him by making him think she was his deceased girlfriend. When she does this, she usually says "Look at me, Dearie. Be in my eyes. Be in me." People are usually rendered helpless by her hypnosis, but Giles was a bit resistant, though not enough for that to affect either of their designs in my opinion.

Also, can anyone think of a better class than Psychopath?
