The Return Alt Draft!

Ok, I'm not normally one for getting ahead of myself, but I figured it'd be ok just this one time. So I came up with an idea for when the game comes back (And it will!). The basic concept is you post an alt for the person above you to roll. Now I don't expect it to be a "first thing" when we get back, but rather something to have fun with when our mainstays are made. The format would be as follows:

AT:
Primary:
Secondary:
Travel Power: (if you choose none, then it is up to the player if they want to pick one or not.)

Once it actually happens, I'd love to make a thread tracking progress of the various alts and our impressions of them.

Let's get this ball rolling! Who has one for me?  ;D

kiario

Sure why not :)

Brute
Dark
Fire
SS


BadWolf

I'll give it a go!

AT: Corruptor
Primary: Water Blast (assuming availability)
Secondary: Storm Summoning
Travel Power: Flight

If you don't have Water Blast, you can take your choice of Electric or Ice. But if you have Water, you gotta use it. :)

I would do this but I have such crippling alt-itis that I have nearly a hundred characters to finish/re-roll.

Oh hell, what's one more. The only thing I would like to see is when you post results, please post the backstory and maybe a screenie.

Here's mine for Blackstar5:

Blaster
Dual Pistols
Mental Manipulation

You can pick your own travel power, but let me suggest Ninja Run. With inherent fitness and a jetpack, this is perfectly serviceable.

I read you thought you'd roll street justice or martial arts, so I gave it to you.  :)  Yes, I didn't make my wordcount yesterday.  I considered long between Invulnerability and Willpower, but in the end it was the concept of a character that got me.  I mean, the bio nearly writes itself with those three words, doesn't it:  Abandoned on the streets as a boy, he had to scrap for every bit of food, clothing and respect...Seeing the inequalities around him sparked a burning rage for justice.  Through willpower alone he survived and triumphed!

Ouul, I don't think I ever played a stalker, though it looks a little like widow (sneak up and strike), and definitely not that combo, thanks!  Now to think of a bio, and design the costume (and feed the cats as it is breakfast and one is putting his claws in my butt).  Later!

Edit:  I don't mean TheDevilYouKnow that you have to go with the bio...it was just the concept that got stuck in my head.

Someone, give Ouul something cool!

Yeah, it's a create combo for pulp type heroes, which are my weakness.

Some, like the Shadow, are well known. But many are no longer common knowledge and to me it feels like preserving a little of the past to have G-8 Battle Ace or The Spider (Master of Men) or Tom Corbett (Space Cadet) or Doctor Savage or Alex Gordon (since Flash Gordon might cause a genric) or 1st class Det Tracy or Airboy doing the hero thing in COH.

I want them all to live a little longer.

Probably go with this as a Bio

Billy Bryne,  grew up on the streets of Chicago during the Great Depression. His father left to find work and his mother died shortly after during an influenza outbreak. He always had to fight for what he needed but discovered that there were those who were worse off and needed his help.
From street fighting he learned boxing and through sheer will, he never lost. He simply refused to admit when he was beaten and would fight on past the sense of reason. When a corrupt promoter wanted him to throw a fight, he refused.

He was beaten, nearly to death, but a spark remained, that part that refused to acknowledge defeat. To gain his revenge, and to stop others from suffering , he stepped outside the law and became the Moonlight Hunter.

He does not know or care how he can still be the way he is today so many years later. There is still work to do.

Excellent, TheDevilYouKnow.
