Karat's Public R&D Lab

[Karat]

Here is where she is at now.

NAME = MERCURY
SECRET IDENTITY = CESSILY KINCAID

SPECIES = MUTANT
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = STUDENT
PERSONALITY = RELUCTANT

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 4

LIFE = 5

MOVE = 6
RANGE = 3
ATTACK = 4
DEFENSE = 5

POINTS = 180?

MALLEABLE 8
Mercury may change her Size at any time. Before moving with Mercury, you may subtract 2 from her move value this turn. If you do, she gains the flying special power this turn but may not move higher than 8 levels this activation.

LIQUID METAL
Mercury may move through all figures and ignores falling damage. When defending, Mercury has +1 Block.

ELECTRIC WEAKNESS
STEALTH

Not to mention self importance is a pretty annoying power imo

[Karat]

Any alternate suggestions then?

[MrNobody]

Hmmm...if we specifically want him to not work with Cyclops (assuming we’re talking about Cyke I) what about something that prevents OM rearrangement or movement on turns that aren’t his or his Big Game movement?

It's more leadership in general. He also defies Xavier.

[Ronin]

Not too familiar with the character, but maybe something more like this?

You may not take a turn with Thunderbird unless there is at least one Order Marker on this card. You may not use any special power to move Order Markers to or from this card.

It's still a purely negative power that gives him some clash with Chuck and Scott, but it's simpler and it's something you can plan around.

I actually didn’t read the write-up Karat, my bad on that because if I had I would have seen that Power Struggle is a similar power. I would not have put my comment about Self Importance so crassly, if I had known. My apologies.

[Karat]

I like that. Now for a good power name. Not entirely sold in Power Struggle and Self-Importance is taken

No offense taken. All feedback is important, especially if it is of a negative nature. Those typically spur the most growth

[Yodaking]

I was thinking along the same lines as Ronin, but my thought was to give him a power where he only can take turns after revealing an OM on his card. Then he doesn't get 'led' by anyone really, most certainly not Scott II or Xavier. You could still play him in an army with out an OM dump though and he wouldn't ruin your plans, plus he would still bond with Jubilee/Armor/etc.

[MrNobody]

I don’t like him being completely incompatible with OM dumpage. Ronin’s idea seems solid.

[Lord Pyre]

I like Ronin's take, though I don't know the character that well.

Headstrong as a power name?
