Dr. MID-Nite Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 The concept is a martial artist type...but with invulnerability. Names ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja-Bear Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 Iron Ox-though that’s usually used for martial artists with great strength but I see it fitting. Dr. MID-Nite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 I suggest Makiwara, which is the name for a wooden striking post used in traditional karate training, to practice punches and kicks and to toughen hands, feet, and elbows. https://blackbeltwiki.com/makiwara Dr. MID-Nite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja-Bear Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Or something that deals with Mountains would work too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf970 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Meir Shahar, Diamond Body in Chinese Martial Arts or just Shahar! unclevlad and Ninja-Bear 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fdw3773 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Some names for your consideration: Hagane No Ken, which is Japanese for "Steel Fist" Dian Xue, which is Chinese for "Vital Attack Point" Tiěpí, pronounced, "Tee-yeh-pea", which is Chinese for "Iron Skin" Doragonken, which is Japanese for "Dragon Fist" Hope that they help. Good luck! Amorkca 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclevlad Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Adamant. Tying back to the archaic usage of impossibly hard and tough, which is the sense used to get adamantine. That would be a bit too in-the-face, but I like Adamant. Especially if he has a strong moral code along with it, because now it can refer to both strong body and strong character.

Tjack Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 All good suggestions, but you could go the other way. Like just calling him (Her? You didn’t say.) Mr. Lee and going with either the iconic white suit or maybe the yellow and black jumpsuit or The Master or the Priest with them them wearing either Buddhist style robes or street clothes reminiscent of them. (Think Bulletproof Monk, Jet Li in Lethal Weapon 4 or Kung Fu: the series) I’ll even throw in one I’ve been saving and will never use. While watching Ne-how Kai-lan (I know I misspelled it) with my God kids I learned that the words for one, two and three in Cantonese are “ee, ahr and sooon. (rhymes with spoon) (see previous parentheses) I thought I’d love to do a Chinese mastermind character named E.R. Sun. Just to see how long it took for the players to get it. A GM has to have some fun at the players expense, right? Dr. MID-Nite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DShomshak Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 My PC Steel Phoenix practiced the Metal substyle of Five Element Kung Fu (which I invented so he could practice it). Also a brief PC called Diamond Tiger. Dean Shomshak Dr. MID-Nite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclevlad Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Man, silly me... I have a couple nominal builds where the core is 2 levels of shrinking...with normal mass. So a density about 3.5x that of gold. Sometimes tank, sometimes projector, but should be almost impossible to hurt. Adamant as a name never entered my head.......
