Because you asked for it DC charcter races here. If the charcter has items just remove them and give them the powers of the items for example Green Lantern minus the ring would be just fine.

I would just use the D20 Future mutation rules to make most superheroes.

Batman is a human with straight 18s across the board.

I think, STR 18, DEX 20, CON 18, INT 22, WIS 18, CHA 17, are closer to Batman's stats. :twocents:

Yeah, once you take into account all his class levels he's most likely got some extra padding in dexterity, wisdom, and especially intelligence.

The best set of rules for d20 superheroes is Mutants & Masterminds... or so I've found.

Superman-
kryptonion fighter 25 (LG)
On Krypton, the kryptonion is a fairly basic race. No stat adjustments, +2 to all knowledge checks, as well as acess to one bonus language beyond common and kryptonion.
On any other world with a yellow sun, the kryptonion turns into a juggernaut of power after 15 years of absorbing solar energy.
The kryptonion gets....
+15 strength, constitution, dexterity. -2 to wisdom and charisma, due to his unfammiliarity with the world's customs.
The Kryptonion also gains a fly speed of 120 feet (perfect) and land speed of 60 feet.
Also, at will, Cone of cold, eye-beams (5d6 fire damage)

Batman
Human Rouge 15/Vigilante 10 (NG)

Actually, we need a superhero class... something that focuses on unarmed combat and special abilities (think geomancer PrC) a certain levels.....

After 15 years on the planet, they're STILL unfamiliar with the world's customs? That seems odd...

Also, while I don't relish being a party pooper...most of these (not the Kryptonian, of course) aren't races, but class builds. Not that there's anything wrong with class builds, but it shouldn't be on the races forum. Now, I believe a lot of the heroes and villians would work better as classes and prestige classes, anyway.

you got a point there... .I thought the same thing about the -2s..... but superman does seem awfully naive, and they've got to have SOMETHING against them, right? ;) But ya, let's get this moved over to classes.
