Never heard of her. Or him.

Incidentally, g33k, I'm still willing to make Donatien.

Ghostfreak:
Well when your free with the other character; I would like to see a Spider-man build that one can take into a dresden files game. I came across a few across the boards but they seem so...meh. I know you would be able to get it done because when your building a character; you get the details and abilities right the first time and you are very accurate. Hope you are doing well sir and can't wait to see what you have cooked up.


I tried my hand at building spider-man but it just wasn't good enough. Definitely he would not be a character for a low refresh game since most of his goodies are a tad expensive and I don't know what stunts to give him.

Sanctaphrax:
Kind of you to say so.

This is meant to represent a sort of composite Spider-Man, drawn from no continuity in particular. Or perhaps from every continuity, if you'd rather see it that way.

The were two parts of this that I found tricky. Aspects and the spider-sense. Aspects were hard because Spider-Man has a lot going on; I think these Aspects do a decent job of capturing him, but they could definitely be better.

As for the spider-sense, there's just too many different ways to do it. A Supernatural Sense would work, Precognition would work, a couple of Stunts would work. Fortunately most of the options cost 2 Refresh, so I can leave it up to whoever ends up using these (if anyone does).

Considered giving him some Stunts (maybe Provoke) and/or the Superhuman Acrobatics Power, but I ran out of Refresh. And anyway he doesn't really need them. That being said, this is a fairly low-powered interpretation of Spider-Man; you could definitely add more Refresh and more skill points without making him unfaithful to his source material.

I could've given him a Catch; in fact, the RAW say I should. But I'm not sure if anything really fits. I guess I could go with sickness, since he's been incapacitated by normal colds and the like before, but...eh.
