The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus)
The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus) C3G DC SUPER SECRET EXCLUSIVE 39 SUPER SMASH-UP The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the War of Light set. Its model number and name are #112 / Atrocitus. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - The being known as Atrocitus was born on planet Ryut, and was a survivor of the infamous Massacre of Sector 666, during which the Manhunters wiped out the life in an entire space sector (including his wife and his daughter) except for five lifeforms. These five became the terrorists known as the Five Inversions, led by Atrocitus, and sought revenge against the Guardians of the Universe and gained powers through dark magics. Much later, Atrocitus was outraged with his associate Qull for revealing the prophecy of the Blackest Night to the Green Lantern Abin Sur. However, Qull's manipulations of the Green Lantern did aid Atrocitus in being released from Ysmault. Abin Sur took him from the planet against orders of the Guardians, traveling to Earth to use Atrocitus to help him find the source of this black power that was prophesied to consume the universe. In transit, Atrocitus exploited the fear these dark prophecies had infected Abin Sur with to free himself from his restraints. He severely wounded Abin Sur and caused them both to crash to Earth's surface, though Atrocitus fell from the ship while it was still airborne. After the Sinestro Corps War years later, Atrocitus came to realize a new source of power that would grant not just an escape from Ysmault but his revenge, as well. Qull's blood would pay for it, because it was his manipulations of Abin Sur that led to the Five Inversions being left to rot on Ysmault rather than being transferred to Sciencells as was originally planned by the Guardians. Atrocitus bludgeoned Qull with a red lantern, christening it in blood and awakening the power of the Red Light of Rage. Atrocitus swore he would have his vengeance upon Sinestro. Thus the Red Lantern Corps was born. (ComicVine, 2012) _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
NAME = RED LANTERN
SECRET IDENTITY = ATROCITUS SPECIES = RYUTAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = RAVAGER PERSONALITY = FURIOUS SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 6 LIFE = 6 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 4 DEFENSE = 6 POINTS = 360 RED POWER BATTERY 3 Start the game with 3 red Battery Markers on this card. Add one to Red Lantern's Move and Attack numbers for each red Battery Marker on this card. RAGE GAMBIT When Red Lantern attacks, he may attack one additional time if there is at least one red Battery Marker on this card. After using Rage Gambit to attack one additional time, roll 1 unblockable attack die against Red Lantern for each red Battery Marker on this card or remove one red Battery Marker from this card. RAGE VOMIT After taking a turn with Red Lantern, if he did not attack this turn, you may choose an adjacent figure and remove any number of red Battery Markers from this card. The chosen figure receives one wound for each removed Battery Marker. SUPER STRENGTH FLYING Last edited by tcglkn; November 2nd, 2020 at 09:23 PM. |

I like him! Very excited to see a third color of Lantern coming out!
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
I love Rage Vomit. Best power name ever! Thematically sound, too.
Does Rage Gambit allow him to continue attacking indefinitely as long as he inflicts a wound every time? EDIT: that comic art is disgusting! :hurl: |

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
That's how it's currently worded yes.
Rage Vomit is something that they actually do in the comics so it was something that I felt had to be reflected on his card. |

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
I know absolutely nothing about this guy as I'm not a Lantern follower.
The marker system will take a little to get used to compared to the established marker system for the other Lanterns, but is certainly doable. Starting out with a ranged attack of 8 or 9 with height is pretty nasty for sure and having a high defense and life would only really force you to get rid of a battery marker if he's greedy at the moment or close to death. I like all the powers for sure. Seems like the priciest Lantern for sure.

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
Atrocitus is credited with killing Abin Sur sans power ring in current continuity. I really feel he deserves a higher base stat for Attack and the usual +1 for power ring markers. A Survivor with 2 Attack would never kill Abin Sur. (He is the last of his world and blames the Guardians for this.)

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
Thanks for the feedback Spidey. What do you think about his species? Is what I have accurate?
Sounds like a base of 5 with +3 from the markers would be good? |

How about Furious for his personality? Raging sounds weird to me.

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
I could even see 6. I know he is from Ryut, but I have NO IDEA what their race would be called.
EDIT: Just looked up countries that end in "t". The two listed that ended in vowel "t" were Kuwait and Beirut (which is actually a city.) Both say you add an "i" to the end. I think Ryuti is the best answer. Semi-Retired C3G Hero (and first Official Member of the C3G Target Audience!) The correct way to add C3G playtests to posts. My favorite day EVER on heroscapers.

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
That's all I could find out about him so I'll just keep his species as is.
Ok. Base attack of 6 with 3 markers would give him a base attack of 9? Are we ok with that? Or we could drop him down to 2 markers giving him a base attack of 8. |

Re: The Book of Red Lantern (Atrocitus): Design
I would certainly feel better about Rage Puking (seriously... That's my new favorite term ever! It needs a smiley!) if he had higher base stats.
Honestly my biggest concern is that he won't burn markers fast enough. Maybe limit Rage Gambit to once per turn? I see this guy decimating mid-levels. |
