David: "Welcome, C3G Heroes! I'm David, and joining me in the booth is my good friend, Bob!"
Bob: "Uh, David, I don't think I'm supposed to be here."
David: "Nonsense, Bob. I've got a private design for us to check out."
Bob: "That's the problem. You're supposed to keep these designs to yourself."
David: "Oh, I'm sure they'll understand."
Sock Puppet (appearing from behind desk): "Ready to assist!"
David: "Hey, Socks! Did you contact Mike and Pam?"
Sock Puppet: "Pam will be along shortly. Mike and I were arguing over a story we found in the news. Someone pulled a nasty April Fool's prank by putting Super Glue on a toilet seat at Wal Mart. A poor guy got stuck. Mike bet me $100 that you couldn't get stuck like that. So he smeared some Super Glue on his toilet, sat down, and he now owes me 100 bucks!"
Bob (burying face in hands): "Oh, brother."
Pam (entering): "I just made it out of the woods in a record 14 days! Where's Mike?"
David: "He's a little occupied at the moment. Anyway, let's check out this cool event hero! And don't forget, this ERB is sponsored by the good folks at Burt's Beer. Burt's Beer: The beer that's stuck in the Design Phase."
IAmBatman (enters with arms crossed)
Sock Puppet: "Ready to un-assist!" (disappears)
Bob: "I think I'm going to see if I can help Mike." (leaves)
Pam (spotting IAmBatman's Utility Belt): "Omigosh! Where did you get that? Please, oh please, tell me you're not married!"
IAmBatman: "Sorry, I'm happily married."
Pam (starts sobbing and leaves)
IAmBatman (shakes Batarang at David and exits)
David: "Wow! I haven't seen anyone clear a room like that since I was at Taco Bell!"
Impossible Man
Oooo, another Event Hero. Tough defense, but puny attack. Looks like he'll be annoying, for sure (in a fun way).
Poppupian Pop
Try saying that 3 times real fast. Nothing too complicated about this.
Poppupian Shapeshifting
This effect only lasts during Impossible Man's turn. That means Impossible Man won't get any defensive abilities such as She Hulk's Hard Body. I'm fine with that.
This will have to be checked against the Scientists and Adventurers. I immediately checked Mr. Fantastic to see if Impossible Man could use Fantastic Leader 4. Fantastic Leader's d20 roll takes place before taking a turn, but Shapeshifting states that Impossible Man can use the powers during Impossible Man's turn. So I'm guessing Impossible Man can't use Fantastic Leader. I'm wondering if others would pick up on that (assuming I'm correct about this, which I'm often not).
Ignored
This is really cool. I'm considering how this works against figures who have defensive abilities such as Batman's Evasive Strike 15. Batman has to decide before I-Man rolls attack dice. So let's say Batman decides not to roll defense dice to deliver 1 wound on I-Man. Now I-Man rolls one skull. I'm assuming Batman would still get to roll the 20-sided die. If 1-14, Batman doesn't roll defense dice per his choice and takes a wound from the skull. If 15+, Batman takes no damage, and I-Man takes another wound from Evasive Strike. Based on this walk-through, I'm thinking that figures with abilities that allow them to bypass rolling defense dice could still hit I-Man 1 wound with Ignored.
I'm also thinking this would apply with Special Attacks as well, such as if Shapeshifting Flash's Fist Fusillade (this would actually be a dumb move on I-Man's part, but I'm considering the possibilities).
Final Thoughts
Shapeshifting is a far more confined version of Mystic Power Drain, so there aren't as may figures you have to consider. I haven't gone through all of the Adventurers/Scientists, nor have I gone through all of the figures with defensive abilities that could interact with Ignored.
