I was really tempted to build this up as a mobile headquarters, but the fact is, if I were running the show with a superman movie, the ship would be brainiac, and the humanoid model above would just be the minions. so, i treat it as a character

Nice take on Brainiac. I think SK already used the HQ route in Freedom City with the Curator, so it's good to see different interpretations.

another hero from the Titans corner of the DCAU, Val-Yor is for the most part an upstanding paragon of intergalactic justice, except for the fact that the man is completely bigoted. first against Tamaraneans (he's fond of the slur 'troq', which means 'worthless), then against humans (because the titans accept starfire as a freind)

How does the Ridiculous Drawback work? Does Taunt work twice as well against Stilt Man or something?

[Kreuzritter]

it's something baron or mdsnowman came up with. basicly, stiltman takes a hefty penalty to any interaction check where he tries to be taken seriously

for a fairly long time, Blue devil builds had one glaring flaw: they refused to accept the character has grown in the past 20 years. today, this is finally recognized in this build, so that Dan Cassidy truly is a blue devil. and quelle suprise, he's not that radicly different, gaining only a new pig sticker, some impervious, 1 immunity, and a drawback. and, thanks to bill willingham, his personality is returning to it's hellboyish roots, rather than "big angry blue guy"
