Generic NPCs

[Sanctaphrax]

Cool. A few suggestions:

1. Perhaps his Leadership stunt could move the Leadership trapping to Intimidation. It would be stronger and it would provide an interesting perspective on Ridley's style.
2. Intimidating Dragon strikes me as the weak link among his aspects. The others are pretty awesome, so this mediocore (in my opinion) one stands out.
3. I think that Natural Reflexive Armour could be modeled with Human Form.

*Good point on Intimidation and Human Form stunt/power.
*Yea I ran out of ideas when I got to I.D.- changing to Competent Tactician.

Ridley

High Concept: Space Pirate General
Trouble: Mortal Foe of Samus Aran
Other Aspects: Cunning God of Death, Federation's Most Wanted, Heartless Monster, Competent Tactician , Battle Pleases Me
Skills:
Superb: Weapons, Fists
Great: Endurance, Intimidation
Good: Athletics, Resources
Fair: Might, Alertness
Average: Presence, Stealth
Stunts:
*Leadership through Fear- Ridley is a General of the Space Pirates, and an effective one at that- his abilities are primarily in intimidation.
Powers:
[-6]Mythic Recovery- Ridley shrugs off consequences like they're nothing.  He has also brushed shoulders with death, but comes back from feasting upon corpses.  He does not tire in battle.
[-2]Hulking Size- Ridley is big, scary, and intimidating.
[-1]Wings- Ridley can fly.
[-2]Breath Weapon- He can breathe fire.
[-1]Claws- Ridley will get close and personal if need be.
[-1]Echoes of the Beast (Dragon)- despite being the only known member of his kind (by the Federation at least), he knows his heritage well.
[+1]Natural Reflexive Armor- after Ridley takes a decent beating, his skin hardens, upgrading abilities (costs covered under individual abilities labeled NRA.  based on Human Form from the standard powers.
[-2]Inhuman Speed (NRA)- Ridley can move quick, when need be.
[-4]Inhuman Strength- Supernatural Strength (NRA)
[-6]Supernatural Toughness- Mythic Toughness (NRA)- Ridley can take a lot of hits, especially after his skin hardens in response to beam attacks from the Arm Cannon.

Equipment: None.
Refresh Cost: -24
Total Refresh: 5

I challenge the good people of the Resource Board to stat up Samus Aran.  For comparison, Ridley has -24 refresh cost, so Samus should be around there, or slightly more.

From which game/sequel?  Or just with standard operating gear? I'll just try it out and take criticisms as I go.

Samus Aran
High Concept:Intergalactic Bounty Hunter
Trouble:My Equipment Never Lasts Forever
Other: Ridley, My Foe; Best Bounty Hunter in the Galaxy; A Tool for Every Job; taking suggestions...one involving Metroids would be nice

Skills:
Superb: Guns, Athletics
Great: Endurance, Burglary? (she handles lots of security systems)
Good: Alertness, Resources
Fair: Might, Conviction
Average: Discipline, Rapport, Drive
(I tried to keep her skill points similar to Ridley's though she'd likely have more)

Stunts:
Impossible Leaps
Power Suit Operation (allows use of breath weapons (which are mounted weapons… from suit and mounted weapons with guns roll)
Chozo technology guru +1 to rolls using their technology, (weapons, fixing things, security etc)
No pain, No gain
Shot on the Run (can move while shooting at no penalty)
Dual Weapon training (represents the ability to combine missles with Breath weapons for extra damage) should let her toss around weapon 6-8's
Just Shoot the Panel: (sometimes shooting the lock really does work...allow guns to compliment burglary)

Powers (represents her power suit etc.)
IoP: Chozo Varia Suit – 19 added up
It is What it is: a very thick powered armor used for bounty hunting Armor 4
Indestructible
One Time Discount: + 2
Innate Mechanical(magic) Ability:Weapon: 4 (by charging the weapon; supplemental action; the cannon can become weapon 5 for one round, weapon 6 for two) -2
Inhuman Strength-2
Inhuman Recoverty-2 (representing energy tanks etc)
Supernatural Toughness –4
Catch (unknown) +0
Beast Change: Ball Form (second skill list not being added atm) -1
Wall Walking –1 (ball form only)
Diminutive Size –1 (Ball form only)
Breath Weapon –1,(fire), additional element (ice)-1, potent-1 (maybe not, since ridley doesn't have this) (weapon 4)
Demonic Co-Pilot –1 Chozo targeting systems
Energy Lash –1 (ranged grapples)
Hyperspace Arsenal –2,-1 secure (generates a way for the armor to hold a flame projector, cryobeam projector, missle launcher, ball form bombs, and main arm cannon)

Assume all weapons are weapon 4, simply used to satisfy catches and open elementally locked doors

Used 24 refresh

I just woke up when I tried this it will need some work.
However, I think being able to roll guns at epic (+7) and using a weapon 4-8 should keep her relevant vs Ridley

I dunno, I always saw Samus as relying on FP and skills rather than powers.

Not sure about the powers of the suit. Demonic Co-Pilot seems wrong and Human Form is missing. Also, the custom stuff looks slightly sketchy.

Is making poison actually part of Scholarship? Apart from that, the ninja looks good.

Revised Ridley looks great.

Didn't know how else to show how her armor worked.  I figured human form would be when she takes off the armor.

I'll change  it as people see fit thoug.

to sanctaphrax
i know this doesn't have to do with this the threads conversation but please reply to my messages.
even though i asked if i can do but now i just gonna do it anyway cause i started and by the time you reply ill probably be close to if not done
what i told him is that im gonna make a master list of all his and who ever else has made an NPC.
message me the name of the NPC and your name so i can give you the credit you deserve for it will be a tread that only i will post on unless a moderator needs to, plus if you don't tell me u made it then the credit goes to Sanctaphrax and him only.
im doing this cause i'm getting sick and tired look through the whole thread for 1 or 2 NPCs
i'm planing on organizing them by Power level lowest to highest
then with in each power level by Alphabetical order
the rest of the information will be posted as the first post of the thread when i make it.
P.S you can message me or reply here if you like the Idea or other suggestions.

[Sanctaphrax]

Patience, please.

I just got your message today, and I don't always reply instantly.

Anyway, I love the idea. I've been meaning to do something similar on the wiki for ages. But I never got around to it.

So, how are going to do this? Just a list of names? Links to this thread? Copy/paste everything?

[zaczane]

yes copy and paste is your friend sadly you can't just plug your computer into your mind and have the computer do what you want it to according to what your thinking
anyway there is all the hydrophobic level NPC now but im gonna go to bed its late were i live so ill add tomarrow cause its the weekend
night

[zaczane]

never mind have to think this out more

[Sanctaphrax]

Looks like a Loup-Garou variant.

I'd like to finish up the Frost Family for good this weekend, and for that I need two things. The first is more social supernatural senses for Jack. The second is an explanation of what you meant those custom powers for Mother Sleet to do.

Can anyone help with those?

Anyway, I'll be making some characters that use custom powers from the master list in the meantime.
