  • So what are some jungle/tropical animals for the newcomers? We already have a lion (CV), a panther/leopard (I think that's what Teal's is), and a sloth (me).

    Crocodile? Monkey? Poison frog? Capybara?
    Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.

        You get a robot animal, that becomes a huge robot fighter. And yes, you can be a chameleon.

            The character that I made is completely different from the character that I was initially thinking of. Earlier this week, I thought the Red was the paladin figure. The enthusiatic kid is completely different.

            Name: Eddie Pfiffer, aka "Raybo"
            Concept: All round entertainer who believes that a joke/song/magic trick is always appropriate
            Gender: Male
            Aspect: Blazing Red
            Keys: Belief (Entertainment gives meaning and satisfaction to everyone. It will diffuse any situation, be needed at any time.)
            Bond (Respected Mentor, Mootie. Famous entertainer. Well known for stopping a war by getting leaders into fellowship by masterfully poking fun at their differences and getting them to resolve the situation peacefully.)

            Fault: Blindness. Doesn't realize that jokes can be offensive or unacceptable at times. Believes that humor will always work.

            Attributes:
            Attack: 1
            Defense: 3
            Athletics: 2
            Brains: 4
            Spirit: 5

            Secondary Values:
            Initiative: 8 (5+ 3 of 8 extra pts)
            Resistance: 11 (8 + 3 of 8 extra pts)
            Stamina: 36 (30+ 2(x3) of 8 extra pts)

            Edges:
            TEAM:
            Basic Attack - Cutting Joke. Can make spontaneous joke/pantomimes (if different language) that stuns and damages an opponent. Can be a cutting remark on their clothes, manner of walking, or anything known or observed about the person.
            Special Attack: Shattering Scream. Raybo can modulate his voice to shatter objects or bones.
            Vehicle Defender: A van named "Pogo". It is filled with Raybo's magician equipment and props. The van is also equipped to disgorge smoke, oil slicks, and small animal swarms (typically birds (can swarm around to confuse or harass) or mice (to chew things to pieces). Raybo thinks that's a real hoot. Pogo is also equipped with loud speakers. These have been modified to handle Raybo's shattering scream.

            Group Asset: Finishing Attack
            Group Asset: Robot.

            PERSONAL:

            Profile: From his earliest memories, Eddie has always sought to entertain others. He was always the class clown and lead singer at school. Later he developed manual dexterity for his magician performing. He's become exceptional at sleight of hand, escape artistry, mentalism, and illusion. One of his running gags is to take things from people while trying to help them "find" it.

            Looks: He wears bright red clothing with sparkly accents for his stage presence. His hair is dyed purple and kept long. His body is slim. He looks a bit nerdy like a strong breeze will knock him over. He uses his highly spirited willpower and brains to best people, not brawn.

            Connected people: Raybo has a successful career. His network includes agent (and best friend), publicist, stage crew, writers (both song and joke), construction crew (for magician sets), sound engineer, and tax specialist.

            Base of Operations: None. Eddie is always on the move, going where the gig is. He keeps a favorite sleeping bag in Pogo. He makes good money, but never makes time to spend it. His work is his life.

            • My animal is most likely the otter, the playful animal. I could also go with the raccoon or chimpanzee as tricksters.

                • Random thoughts:

                  Cutting Joke is also known as Rapier Wit.

                  I don't think meerkats are as playful as otters.

                  I didn't see anything in the rule book that mentioned why special attack wouldn't be used as often as basic attack.

                  I might have problems with Irving. The guy doesn't look to have a humorous bone in his body.

                  • 1)

                    2) Otters aren't jungle critters.

                    3) I don't remember seeing that either.

                    4) Well duh. You two are in charge of party dramatic tension.

                      All the character sheets are in. Let's not wait another 12 months to get this going.

                              Two: Could you edit your basic attack so that it uses a physical device to channel its energy through? Just imagine, you are talking to the boss, and then he's beaten by someone talking to him. I would suggest a microphone or a megaphone.

                                The way I read the vehicle defender is that they all combine together to form a big robot. I can't imagine small animals combining together to become a supersize robotic animal.

                                Oh well. I'll go with the chimpanzee. We can keep the name, Pogo for it.

                                For my basic attack, I want the weirding module as used in the movie Dune. https://sp.yimg.com/ib/th?id=JN.VNOe...g&pid=15.1&P=0

                                It attaches to the throat and is used to make a sonic attack. That would tie in to both my rapier wit and shattering scream.
