The inspiration for this thread came from the "Weapon X!" thread here (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=95965). I think Wolverine could be built combining a dwarven half-troll with the weapon x template and feral templates added. Another "X" character build could be an awakened or incarnate iron golem for Colossus. Of course a high level psion (telepath) for Prof. X. Any other ideas for builds? I have a few and will post them soon.:D

Colossus would work better as a human with the supernatural ability to cast Iron Body at will.

As for the Loser part, you're thinking of the Hollywood version. In the comics, she was so powerful it wasn't even funny.

Anyhow, here are some more:

Quicksilver: Human with speed 380
Archangel: Avariel
Mastermind: Human with major image at will
Juggernaut: Human with 30 Str and immunity to just about everything

Well Juggernaut is only invulnerable to mental attacks when he has his helmet on. Which should probably be a magic item itself.

Nothing stops Juggernaut except Juggernaut (and Onslaught); while wearing his helmet, he is immune to all mind-affecting effects, and probably has massive DR and a very high Strength score. He apparently does not need to breathe.

The Ruby of Cyttorak (which gave Cain Marko his power) is an artefact of the highest order; every sorcerer worth the name knows of it, and knows how dangerous it is.

Question: If Juggernaut (the Irresistable Force) charged the Blob (the Immovable Object), what would happen? Since the Blob is a mutant, and Juggy's magically-powered, I'm inclined to say that Juggernaut would send the Blob into the next county.

Actually, Spider Man stopped the Juggernaut...like three times, by the time I stopped reading comics...circa 1995.

Deadpool stopped Juggernaut twice and was fond of reminding him that Spider Man had also stopped Juggernaut.

Wolverine and Jean Grey teamed up to stop Juggernaut too.

So much for the Unstoppable Juggernaut title...

:D

Cool...I was also thinking about that possibility for Colossus, Dartanel. For Nightcrawler I was also thinking possibly a tiefling or even half-fiend (recently found out that his father was some sort of demon or devil). And I was thinking shapechange at will for Morph, or possibly making him a doppleganger (he never did look completely human in the comics). I'm still not sure if there's a way to emulate rogue's powers unless you use vampiric touch coupled with something else. Storm would have to be some sort of druid or elemental savant I think.

Rogue- Human with Touch Version Ray of Enfeeblement on Continuously? (No way to shut off). How does she absorb powers, though?

This happened in Evolution

Blob: The Unstoppable, meet the Immovable.
Juggernaut: Grrr *shoulder barge*
Blob: *goes flying*

Rogue (second greatest of all X-people, next to the card throwing Cajun Thief, (that would be Gambit, petit ;) ):
Touch ranged Ray of Enfeeblement continuous, though it doesn't work through a medium.
Whenever Rogue uses this power, she gains all (Su) and (Ex) abilities of the effected creature, plus any surface memories. The abilities last 1d6 hours while the memories are permenant until Healed.

Here's another.

Banshee: greater shout at will


Any ideas regarding Bishop, Iceman, or Magneto?

Magneto: What ever he *wombat* well pleases as long as there's metal involved. And Telekinetic Shpere at will. ;)

1) X-Men Bios are Here (http://www.marvel.com/bios/index.htm)

2) This scares me. Marvel Character Appearances (http://marvel.com/appearances/)

3) Juggie (http://www.marvel.com/bios/bios.htm?id=41&family=X-MEN)

Note his Durability. He has, like, infinite Con.

Can you imagine having Dr. Doom warn your children about the dangers of smoking? ^_^

I recall seeing Juggernaut vs. blob in that ep.
Basically Blob held his ground, but the ground he was holding gave way.

I'd say:

Angel just has the Winged Template (Savage Species) not the Half Celestial one.

Cyclops: There's a template somewhere that can give gaze-attacks.

Jéan Gray/Phoenix: Really high psion level.

Iceman: Half ice-paraelemental template and a shitload of spell-likes.

Rogue: I'd say that's not Ray of Enfeeblement... More Like Enervation or Energy Drain. Also, she acquires all Sp, Su, and Ex abilities of the target for a few hours.

Shadowcat: Passwall at will? Perhaps Etherealness is better, she remains visible?

Nightcrawler: Dimension door at will, spider climb.

Storm: Druid/Air Elemental Savant with Control Weather at will.

Making Kitty ethereal seems a bit too much; she shouldn't actually leave the material plane. I'd say to give her incorporeality (affecting her entire body or just a specific part) at will, noting that she must breathe as anyone else.

Gee thanks, Steph. That link has just sucked 2 hours of my time away, and threatens to take quite a bit more before it is done..... :) By the time I get through with it, I will know everything I have missed in comic books for the last 6 years, along with much more. Of course, I will also be 20 years older. :D Great site. Wish I could find one that comprehensive for DC.

The trick with defeating blob is not moving him, but moving the ground -under- him. His gravity abilities are fairly localized. You can't move him from where he stands, but where he stands can be moved readily. Of course, in X-Men: Evolution, he's not nearly as advanced with his powers, and, frankly, the show doesn't keep the powers the same as in the comics (Mystique should NOT be able to turn in to a wolf, much less a bird or a cat, and Toad's supposed to have sticky FINGERS, and no uber tongue, etc.)

I think the only thing that comes close to explaining her power is the Illithid Savant in SS. No brain eating, just touch. Maybe she has Mindflayer grandparents or something?

Technically, the best way to describe Rogue's powers is a mutilated form of Shapechange. That is, she takes the abilities from others and gains them herself, although her physical appearance does not change. Even that's only a close analog, however.

recently in the comics, rogue has begun taking on minor physical appearances of the people she touches, such as a bluish skin tint from nightcrawler, white hair from magneto, etc. the changes are only temporary.

Where's that template from?

10-02-03, 03:06 PM
I'm guessing its an alteration of the Half-Elemental template from the Manual of the Planes.

That's because she absorbed a Skrull a while back, and Skrulls are natural shapechangers. She now spontaneously manifests the powers of everyone she's absorbed.

There's a thread similar to this on the Char Op board. Hope it gives you all some ideas about these chars. That, and participation always welcome.
