Character Bio - Even the Avengers need a break from time to time, when the holidays come around they throw some of the best parties. Sometimes things happen while they are enjoying the mixed drinks and while their response time may be slower, you definitely don't want to fight against Avengers when they are back to back.

AVENGERS HOLIDAY PARTY
At the start of the game, place a white Avenger Marker on the card of a friendly Unique Hero and two different Food Equipment Glyphs on this card. Spider-Man can equip a Food Equipment Glyph even if there are other Food Equipment Glyphs on this card, up to a maximum of 2. A figure you control with an Avenger Marker on its card subtracts 1 from its Move number and, while adjacent to a friendly figure with an Avenger Marker on its card, adds 1 to its Attack number when attacking adjacent figures.

SECRET SANTA
After taking a turn with Spider-Man, you may place a Food Equipment Glyph from this card onto the card of an adjacent friendly figure with an Avenger Marker on its card. If you do, take an immediate turn with that figure and you may not take any additional turns.

SWING LINE 4
Instead of his normal move, Spider-Man may move up to 4 spaces with Swing Line. When moving with Swing Line, Spider-Man has the Flying special power, but may not move up or down more than 40 levels in a single swing, and will not take any leaving engagement attacks.

Used to hold Glyph text...

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Is it intentional that he can't get his own boost from his first power if someone else gives him an Avengers Marker (due to him not being friendly to himself)?

I thought that part used to be 'you control' which would have included him.

I knew I had it worded that way for a reason. I'll change it back.

[IAmBatman]

Looks good. Getting about 210 on the calculator for him.

Thinking about adding a second simple Glyph here since we don't have many Food Glyphs yet (only one other one):

NAME = FRUIT CAKE
SUBTITLE = Dense Food

FOOD EQUIPMENT GLYPH
Before taking a turn with this figure you may destroy this glyph and choose one of the following effects:
• choose a figure within 3 clear sight spaces of this figure and roll a 20-sided die. If you get a 12? or higher, inflict a wound on the chosen figure.
• until the end of this round, this figure cannot be moved by any means

[IAmBatman]

I might do 2 clear sight spaces, just because 2/12 is easier to remember. Also, how far are you gonna chuck some cake?

[tcglkn]

Sure could also bump the roll to 13. But 2/12 is also fine.

[IAmBatman]

12 Days of Christmas, though.
