Wow, congrats on the 300! You must have hit that milestone in record time!

thanks. technicly I hit it some time ago, due to my other meta-4 builds, but considering how flawed most of them were (I pretty much rebuilt the brain from scratch), I'm only counting the things that actually go into this thread

A pretty fun build, Hudson's design draws from FC's Zandar in terms of skills and some feats, but the rest was built from fond memories of the only real competition to B:TAS

in fact, the only flaw I found in my design was that I couldn't figure out how to model the restorative properties of the gargoyle stone sleep

on that note, the stone sleep is only a -5 because in a gargoyles based campaign, nearly all the action should be happening at night

>snip awesomeness incarnate<

Mutants & masterminds signature feind, ready to try and start any variety of nuclear holocausts, sitting at PL12 so players actually have a chance at survival

Now that is a great version of a "tough mastermind." Strong enough to punch your team's powerhouse or paragon through a wall, with just enough firepower to make the team's forcefield builder sweat as she's defending the others, but all the other things which make a floating brain in a super-powerful robot truly a force to be reckonned with, especially with a nice, fully stocked base, the deadly invention of the week...

The sidekick thrown in is more than enough for any team.

An original creation, Mr. Lincoln was in fact inspired by the above picture

A struggling actor, Jack Mathers was scraping by when playing the part of lincoln one president's day, when a radioactive chemical spill occured. without thinking, he risked his own life to haul as many people as he could out of the danger zone, in the process becoming saturated with the stuff, which he later discovered would enable him to become the very spitting image of the famous monument. a lifetime resident of Washintton, the newly dubbed Mr. Lincoln (a name given by elementary schoolchildren who thought he was the memorial statue) is rapidly become a home-town favorite

I can honestly say that I am REALLY pleased at how Incredible turned out, as he incorporates elements of both the powerhouse and the costumed adventurer to get a good old-fashioned two-fisted superhero thats able to beat the pants off the bad guys and look good doing it

yet another hero from Wildguard's corner of image, I originally dismissed shingle as a goofy concept, until i saw his powers in action

basicly, Shingle's power is not unlike telekinesis, only instead of an energy signature, his power manifests as assemblies of those shingles you see being drawn from his pectoral area, which he can then connect together to create objects or sheild himself, or hurl them at his foes in a burst of tile

Nice work on the Atomic Brain. My own conversion (for eventual use in a now-defunct PL 8 game) came in at PL 13/300pts, and was planned to be the first story arc's Big Bad.

Mr. Lincoln is my favorite concept of the last three posted.

How can you not love a collassal, crime-fighting, animated stone president?

It sounds like something off that one website.

He's a 30-foot tall, animated statue of President Lincoln.

Okay. I'm off to make the telekinetic hamster. :-p

a classic hero of gaming, Arthur is the hapless hero of the infamous ghosts n' goblins series, ready to lend heroic aid to your heros

and yes, the ablative armor does mean that after a few solid hits, arthur's fghting in nothing but his boxer shorts

incidently, arthur's luck is meant to represent the inherent complication of being the pc in ghosts n goblins. the game is just that hard.

thanks. he's a big one all right

personally, I'm always holding ut the hope that one day, there'll be a gimmick's gadgets PDF for a 2e version of "Tears for Everyman"

I know. I originally conceived the character as a one-off incidental (lincoln lookalike with powers), but with the completedversion one can easily see the guy on a DC hero team

the servbots also mark an experiment of mine, in creating a robotic character that doesn't have to do the -10 con/+30 immunity routine (which can really drive up the cost of a character)

anyway, as you can see, your average servbot uses both the kid template and FC's toon gang in their design

star of the long running sci-fi webcomic schlock mercenary, schlock is a man-eating carbo-silicate amorph mercenary with a really big gun

schlock has no real combat strategy, he just opens up the gun (with sfx for warming up: Ommminous hummmm) and uses his free action to tell his goons to stay our of the line of fire

incidently, for critics of my lobo build, schlock's gun should do nicely if you want to give the main man some extra firepower

yes, that's right, i used the picture of an established comics character that's not from an animated appearance

anyway, because of their similarities, much of shulkie here draws from my aresia build (except, y'know, she hulk's nicer, and doesn't know the first thing about the occult)

[Samuel Leming]

If you don't mind, I'll be stealling your Mr Lincoln concept for my own game if I ever run it.

Interesting Sgt. Schlock, but he may be a bit weak. If I were to build him, I'd ditch the PL limit and go with a +18 blast[lethal] with a few APs(dazzle, trip/knockback, disintegrate) based off that to represent his antique plasgun. Don't get me wrong, I like your characters, but I interpret this one differently.
