Comments: I did it. It ain’t pretty, but I did it. Sinister at PL10. I think I was able to get his essence, if not his overall ability level. He can still invent just about anything, he's still a master of Life Sciences, with his Shapeshift array he can still turn into about anyone he wants as well as heal himself or use Telepathy if he needs to. All in all, he came out more well rounded than I expected, but he's still a shell of what his characterization really is.

AP: Healing (Extra: Resurrection, Energizing, Flaw: Limited [Personal only]; 1pp) [10][/i][/b]

So um personal effect here. How exactly is he going to be using healing on himself when he is dead? I mean normally you can't use a power like healing once your dead so having the Resurrection extra on it seems a little pointless. I could be missing something here.

You can if you've bought it down to a Reaction, I believe.

I didn't do that, though. Excellent point, Stick. I added the Total extra instead of Resurrection. If I use this build and he actually gets whacked, a little GM Fiat or HP usage should get him back in no time.

Thanks for shopping at J-Mart!

Thank you and your stalwart companions for stocking it!

[Khantalas]

Personal Energizing must be the most useless Healing ever. Remove your fatigue conditions by taking them onto yourself!

Normally, I do not question your genius, Thorp, but you might be doing something wrong here.

A) NEVER hesitate to question me.
B) You must have a low standard of genius.
C) Good point. I didn't read through the Healing extras very well (see above) and I don't use that power often. I'll fix that, too.

Maybe I could figure out a way to pass the Fatigue onto Pym somehow...

Comments: WEN-DI-GO!!!

Pretty much says it all. The longtime Hulk foe at a playable, or more appropriately, minion level. As most know, a Wendigo is created when someone consumes human flesh in the Canadian wilderness (dang Canadian wilderness magic curses...) and once the person is transformed, they become a nearly indestructible beast that craves human flesh and can only be killed if you cut off the head or cut out the heart.

I mention this as a minion build because for the longest time, it was thought there was one Wendigo, but apparently, there are a ton. In the newest Hulk run, a whole tribe of Wendigoes, numbering in the hundreds, have descended on Vegas looking for Red Hulk who killed one of them during his initial rampage. In a game setting, I would probably use these type of stats for that mob as opposed to the usual version that can hang with the Hulk, but I would probably throw in a few of the upcoming higher level build to represent the top dogs.

Another bigger version of our latest special is getting stocked on Aisle 3.

Comments: A more level appropriate version of the Wendigo. Can hang with Hulk for a while, but will go down in the end. But it's still a pretty good challenge for a PL10-ish team of heroes, like the X-Men.

Comments: Merlyn is a Green Arrow foe who has been a rival for his for some time as one of the best archers in the DCU. He’s been a member of the Injustice Gang and the Secret Society as well a member of the League of Assassins during the time that David Cain was training Cassandra. I basically took my GA build and trimmed a few things and there he was. He uses trick arrows like GA does (no boxing glove arrow, though) so I kept that array generally the same, but I it is ripe for a redo if I read more with him in it.

[Tattooedman]

That's nice Merlyn build there Thorp, is this payback from way back when I scooped you on some of the Rogues builds?

I was gonna put up my build of Merlyn later tonight as part of my Mirror Darkly run. But you just had to go ahead and post yours now before I could get off work didn't you?!?!?

Still a nice build though......

Oooh, I didn't even think about that. I'll have to put them on the short list. I kinda promised myself I would do Dethklok first, but I've been putting them off since Dethklok is a Gestalt entity in my opinion and I am fuzzy on that power. I guess I'll have to read up.

Thanks for shopping at J-Mart!

Comments: This is Shrike, a Nightwing villain. He is the third character (I think) to go by Shrike in DC, successor to the last Shrike who was a member of the League of Assassins. This Shrike is Boone, a guy who has had a mad-on against Nightwing for a long time. He traveled the world, learned a bunch of martial arts, became in an assassin got hired by Blockbuster and went after Nightwing. He lost of course, but it was close and he took on a lot of Nightwing’s other Rogues’ Gallery by himself and beat them all pretty easily so PL9 felt about right.

Comments: Another purely Wiki fueled build, this is Lynx, one of Robin’s nemeses. She’s a martial artist who used to work for King Snake but became a gang leader in Gotham on her own. She has been whacked twice, but sure enough, another Lynx has shown up again so it’s either a new chick or once again another useful villain cheats death at the writer's whim.
