Mr. R Posted May 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Two more villains (Daddy Long Legs and Polarity) and then I will go on to Gramercy Island.

This sets off what I can only call a psychotic break. He goes into hiding, develops his battle suit and seaks revenge on, in no particular order, the executives of the company, the entire company itself (including all employees) and the entire city of Century Station. And revenge is basically total destruction. He has no compunction about killing to ensure his goals or survival. So, what do I think of him? Well every campaign needs a villain the heroes can feel good about pilling into the ground. And here he is. With his psych lims, he's guaranteed to keep coming after them as they are now the top of his shit list. Power wise, he's Doc Ock. but not as stylish.

But the combination of powers give him a good deal of tactical flexibility. Just the flight, FF, and DI, together make him dangerous. Add a TK and Entangle... he can hold down two to three heroes at once. I like that. He's another blue collar villain type. It just a job for him, and a steady stream of medium scores is better that one big one. Seriously, if he made a large score, he'd probably retire. I can see the slacker tag, but a smart villain could see the potential of working with him. I could see him like Killjoy, a villain you could almost admire. Powerwise, he's good. Attacks, defenses (WOW!) and mobility. I could see adding an EB, just to add to his offence a bit, but he really is good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. R Posted June 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 So next up I will start on Gramercy Island NPC's. Again I won't do all, but those that interest me / that I find interesting. Thus I will start with the teams of the Bodyshots, the Deathsquad, the Workshop and the Liberators. So a small comment on the Bodyshot and Deathsquad. The Minotaur (the Big Boss) must have multiple personalities. One is a proven group that has been caught and sent to prison. He refuses to bust them out as it would tip authorities as to how powerful he is. The second is a group made of of members who recently tried to kill each other, have no rep as a group, but he plans to bust out so they can act as his enforcers. WHA???? Whatever. I am presenting each build as if they are out of prison / free. And I will present both groups as working for the Minotaur at the same time. Thus he can mix and match for each mission. If all twelve come out, it is something BIG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. R Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 So I will start with the Bodyshots. This is a thug squad of underground fighter who have been brought together as an enforcement squad by the Minotaur, the new Big Gang Leader in CS.

But it ends up giving him super powers and he kills a man in the ring. So he goes underground and joins an illegal fighting circuit that specializes in super brawls. Eventually he rises to the top, and is tapped as the leader of the Bodyshots. And he likes it. Tangling with supers is a challenge for him. As a leader, he seems the "let them loose" type than any organised plan, and is leader by simple virtue that he's the toughest SOB on the team. All his powers are geared to a super brawler (super Str, super dex, super con, Natural Combat) As an NPC he's got a few hooks. Power wise, he's a nasty one, but I am sure this was intentional and rolling all that randomly seems..... unlikely. He hits hard and can take some serious punishment. He's as reactive as a speedster, strong as a brick an agile like a Mart Artist. All in all a bit over the top, but OK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Martial Arts have become stagnant and decadent from years of commonality. He will sweep it away. Fight him. If you win he will retire. If you lose, you retire and close your school forever. Then he got to Century Station and fell into the underground fighting circuit and cut a swath though the opposition. Only Uppercut gave him a serious challenge. (yeah right, there are two other members that could take him out easy as well IMHO). Anyway he was invited to join the team and has relished the challenge of fighting supers. In all honesty, he's not the toughest. But he has a few hooks from his past and his desire to prove himself. If your team has a MA member, he will zero in on them as a challenge to be vanquished. Powerwise, he's good for double teaming. He and Bolchok (to be seen later) could make a nasty tag (if you can get past his desire to prove himself) I can see him spoiling a plan by rushing in to challenge someone to prove himself.

So he's willing do do things to keep his powers that may blow up the team and Minotaur's plans! SO I like him. He's got some interesting powers that can catch a super by surprise. And he can take a hit. And he has some interesting possible hooks to get the players interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the organization he's join has pissed off the Minotaur and all are killed, except Bolchok. He's given a choice, join or die (Not really a choice). He's a good enough fighter that he makes it into the fighting circuit and later the Bodyshots. And after a while he grows to like his job. He's good at it. You will note the lack of Disads with him. That's because he's got very few. He's like Killjoy from Hitters Inc. He just wants to do his job and get paid. He's very much a blue collar thug. Laid back and go with the flow. Power wise, he's another Physical Training guy. I could see him and Roundhouse doing a good tag team. His combat pattern is to wade in, blocking a dodging until his opponent is out of attacks. With Roundhouse I see him blocking, which allows Roundhouse a free attack. Or a legsweep for roundhouse to get a bonus on OCV next attack. I can even see a power with Roundhouse of "+ to OCV when other blocks or dodges". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was lost and his auto programming kicked in. Eventually he became self aware and found he liked fighting and earning money to keep him in repairs. Eventually he made his way to CS and the Minotaur. This NPC would come across as a surprise to most PCs. He looks like a normal person, but can soak up amazing amounts of damage. And he hits hard. Actually I think I could justify his Str at 50 just because he fits the brick role so well in the team. And he has a ton of plot hooks. So I like him!

Then at a competition, it was found that she was a mutant. Lost everything, home friends, endorsements. On the streets you do what you need to survive and so she fought. Found she was good at it also. Eventually she fell in with the Minotaur and his enforcer team (she's the other member who could hand Roundhouse his rear end). Even Uppercut remarks she has a mean streak. Like Uppercut, I find it hard to believe her powers were rolled randomly (Str, PP, PE, radar and Power channeling). She's designed to hit fast and hard. One thing I liked was that she has a family (brother who is looking for her) They describe him as naive (cue killing own family to show what a rat bastard she is). But I mad him as powerful. (he's a mutant also.) So now cue punching your brother full force, expecting to kill him and something much stronger emerges from the rubble. Her build is OK, but the plot hooks make her cool. This could be like Salvo from Hitters Inc. Leaving her a bloody pulp would not phase players in the slightest if you play her right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. R Posted June 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 So onto the Deathsquad. First the leader, someone I feel is much more capable than Uppercut.

A male version of Elite. Similar skills and equipment. Tactical leader (like Elite). However they did give him more plot hooks. He's got a nasty hunted, (Note police should have NCI as well) and an ego a mile wide. But he also looks like he would lead the team better. I like Super Agent PC's, but there needs to be something to make them different from each other. Unfortunately in HU, the skill list is the same for all Sec. Ag. Characters. But Doubletap has promise. As a leader he could take any team he commands and make them nasty. I expect tactics and battle maneuvers from this guy. He's a leader that PC's could respect, even he's on the other side. Not bad and a serciveable NPC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His grandfather was triad assassin, his father was triad assassin. He's carrying on the family tradition. He's come to CS to give himself a challenge. The Triads have agreed to this as long as he kicks back his 85%. So far it has been lucrative. HKK is the supremely overconfident member. He's got skills. And he's got a special gun. Basically it shoot small slivers at fantastic speeds so it can carry a lot of ammunition. Since to get any real damage it needs to be fired in bursts, I gave it a good damage and enough charges to justify constant use. The fact that he never seems to reload is due to the fact that he carries four of them and at least 4 clips for each. (yeah, he comes loaded). I gave him overconfident, but even that is not enough. It seems he's almost fool hardy, wading out of cover, guns blazing. Maybe I should have given him some Combat Luck? But he's also the teams skill monkey. Seriously if it shoot, he can fix it. I can see Double tap keeping a very close eye on him as he is almost too valuable to lose. Powerwise, it does show some of the versatility of the Hardware set. Of course the Analytic gets the best toys, but weaponsmith comes close. Look at the difference between Hong Kong Kid and A villain coming up called Hairtrigger. Same set, but the characters have some differences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands become BFGs. But with six arms, he can put out some serious firepower. Played right, he can be a good ranged member, who hits a PC every time he moves. But they didn't give him any armour and he seriously needs it. But it is his backstory that has the hooks. A mutant, with little education, he used his powers to provide for his family. Then they found out about his villainy and disowned him. This has led to a crisis of conscience and he is thinking of retiring and going straight. If so the Minotaur will certainly kill him. Cue a hero team to save him. Maybe he and Stranglehold can leave together. This would put a serious dent in the Minotaur's teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he's a super soldier, so where did he get his powers. Power wise. Classic sniper. Shot from FAAAAARRR away. He's Lazer, without the jetpack (and the coolness).

So he commissions a suit of exo armour to allow him to move and adds a BFG as his main weapon. And along with Flechette (Up next) he goes from warzone to warzone killing a murdering and getting labelled a war criminal in the process. Things get so hot for them that they come to Century Station at the behest of the Minotaur to be part of he new team. WOW the Minotaur must not be afraid of the massive amounts of attention getting a monster like this on his roster. Anyway, Sabot is a decent build really. Can take a punch, can dish out decent damage, and is fairly maneuverable. Only his lack of any real strength harms the build. And he comes with some serious plot hooks. This is a member that the team could really hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to say she has issues is an understatement. Like Sabot, she is wanted for warcrimes and has been commissioned by the Minotaur to be part of his new team. Like Sabot, there is little to redeem her in the eyes of the heroes. She has a cool build, and again some great plot hooks. But like Sabot I expect she would on top of the PC's hit list very quickly.

Then he made contact with Archemedes and Overdrive and started the workshop. As he is always on edge, he got the nickname Hairtrigger, and has since used it as his handle! So all his equipment is built using Energy Blast, but if you want a more lethal version change everything but the Knuckle Dusters to RKA. This is the Hong Kong Kid, with the same attitude, but much better tactics. He wears better armour, has multiple weapons to handle differing situations, some items for HTH situations (they do happen) and seemingly a more mature attitude to combat in general. Anyway, he's the weapons designer (except for energy weapons, WHY?) and the main contact with clients. To me the combat is secondary. This is a group that gives a reason why the colour gangs all of a sudden getting real cheap energy weapons, or motrocycles with machine guns. in that they supply that role well. And if the heroes decide to try and find the physical workshop, and raid it, they could be a big surprise with what they can do in combat. All in all I find the group interesting, not because of what the members can do in combat, but the background they can supply to background!

Mr. R Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 This is the guy who would have built the Batmobile. And then give it more dakka!

With his mechanical flare, he souped up his rides and put hisself out as a transporter. Then on a job gone wrong, he almost died, and so since then he has concentrated on the supply side. You want a mean machine, with the latest gadgets, you call Overdrive! So like the last NPC, its not so much what he can do, but what he can supply that makes him interesting. If it is in the Complete Vehicles guide, he can probably build it. A good guide is as part of his displays he has a Motorcycle, a Sportscar, a Semi-truck, and a Helicopter. Seriously these guys are Dr. McQuark's SSS&G with some ethical problems. You should never have to fight this guy, but if you do, he'll come at you with a BIG Vehicle, that has LOTS of weapons and LOTS of armour. And he will certainly pick the time and place for an ambush. Away from his vehicle he's basically a normal. So again, I like what they can offer a campaign, more that I like them as an enemy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was happy, until her father died in an ambush. In her grief, she has lashed out at the world, building devices for whoever can pay. It is her way of getting revenge on the world, because if she can't be happy, neither can anyone else! Recently our school did a play, "The Addams Family - A Musical" (Aside, it is VERY FUNNY). One line is from Pugsly to Wednesday "Seriously, you have issues!" That describes Archemedes. She is the classic 'I do this for revenge on society thet...." Whatever! Again, she's more interesting as background than as an opponent. But she does have a lot of plot hooks. Of all the members of the Workshop, she's would be the one to get the most face time/interaction. Build wise, I think she is the coolest of the three, but that is mainly because the Analytical Hardware is just that. Computer makes you like Garcia from Criminal Intent. Great in your 15 minutes, then..... Weapons is too much like Hunter/vigilante Vehicle is limiting. What do you do out of your vehicle? Analytical gets the best toys in my opinion.

Mr. R Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 So now the Fearless. Alien freedom fighters stranded on earth. They try to keep a low profile, but can't turn a blind eye to a bad situation. If it continues, maybe they won't want to leave.

While they search for parts and equipment, they have encountered many of CS inhabitants, good and bad. So they try to navigate the situation, hoping to do good and get off the planet before Alpha Prime notices them, and before their former masters make it to earth. Liberator is the most normal of the bunch. He's just a highly skilled HTH expert. with some cool toys. The Anti Gravity ring is something I gave to all three. It gives a reason for them to be in many out of the way places. They keep the rings secret and don't use them in combat unless it is imperative to do so! So, Liberator seems a decent leader. And he's got some great plot hooks in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
