The Book of Professor X (Illuminati)
The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) C3G MARVEL PUBLIC EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION 36 SECRETS AND SHADOWS Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the X-Men the Animated Series, the Dark Phoenix Saga set. Its model number and name are #035 / Professor X. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - During a live interview with a local news station, Charles Xavier said that his friends just call him 'Chuck' in hopes that it would catch on. He always wanted to have a nick name and feel like just one of the guys. When no one called him Chuck in the weeks and months following that interview, he became disillusioned about the world and his place in it. Now knowing that he had no friends among the mutants that he had been sharing his mansion with, he set out to find a new group of friends. Joining a group of egotistical control freaks who wished to drive world events to their own liking, the Illuminati was formed. - courtesy of Yodaking _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
NAME = PROFESSOR X
SECRET IDENTITY = CHARLES XAVIER SPECIES = MUTANT UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = VISIONARY PERSONALITY = RESOLUTE SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 4 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 4 RANGE = 4 ATTACK = 4 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 190 TELEPATHIC CLOAK If you win initiative and there is an Order Marker on this card, Professor X and adjacent friendly Unique Heroes cannot be targeted by non-adjacent enemy figures for any attacks or special powers that require clear sight, unless that enemy figure is an Android, Construct, Telepath, or has the Mental Shield special power. MASSAGE THE TRUTH Once per game, if you lose initiative, you may instead win initiative. MIND BLAST 14 Instead of attacking with Professor X, you may roll the 20-sided die X times. For each roll of 14 or higher, Professor X may inflict a wound on a figure within 10 spaces, that is not an Android, Construct, destructible object, nor has the Mental Shield special power. X equals the number on the Order Marker you revealed this player turn. MENTAL SHIELD An opponent may never take temporary or permanent control of Professor X.

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
I guess I’ll suggest this one more time, just to have it on the books.
Quote:
Either way though, really dig this design as a whole! Should be a fun addition to the faction but it also seems like it’ll do well as an addition to an X-Men build. |

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
I think this is our first ever card with a gaslighting power.
Any thoughts on a name for the ??? power? VISIONARY ARROGANCE? REFRAMING THE SITUATION? C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

BALD-FACED LIE?
Earnestly, something like MASSAGE THE TRUTH could be cool and hint at some of the shadier side of Xavier. |

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
Massage the Truth is my favorite of those. And yes, shadier Xavier is def. the idea.
As for the initiative for the trigger there, I'm not against it. It'd really suck in 3+ player games, and could likely force your hand to burn his 2nd power one off pretend it didn't happen rather quickly, but maybe that's not so bad? Though, maybe it'd be more reasonable if we tied his 2nd power to a numbered OM removal or something? In a way, that makes initiative based powers auto-wins for him if he's willing to give up the turn for it, but that might be solid for the faction and be worth the trade off? I'm willing to see what others feel. |

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
I think I’d probably burn an OM in that situation. It’s a matter of getting 3 turns vs. 4 turns if you have BP, so that kinda feels like a no-brainer. Strange and Reed are just kinda bonuses at that point.
Probably wouldn’t use it in a non-Illuminati build, but I don’t think I’d be using that power much with the X-Men either way? |

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
I’d just tie it to any OM removal. That means he’s giving up his easy illusion making.
Massage The Truth sounds good. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
Alongside Beast and Namor, other Mutant Illuminati members in alternate universes are Captain Britain (Betsy Braddock), Magneto, and Emma Frost.
Not saying we need Visionary designs of those characters (Magneto might make sense regardless of the faction), but might be interesting to include initiative based powers on them in future designs. Could create a big enough pool that this Prof X becomes a good choice in plain Mutant builds. |

Re: The Book of Professor X (Illuminati) (Design)
HoxPox Magneto could definitely be a Visionary.

Updated the SP with what has been discussed. Let me know if that's what people would like to move forward with.
