i need help a bit, suggestions as it were, on the creation of a character that can do these things from this video

https://www.timekiller.org/filelib/videos/monkey.wmv

i just think the concept is really cool

the concept i had for the character would make him a Black Gene person, also, would likely be a villian, i want someone the players are going to have a very very hard time catching

im also thinking of kind of a macgyverish aspect as well

now, i dont want a complete character, just some pointing in the righr direction powers wise

heres what ive selected power wise so far (no ranks, just possible powers)


Ambidextrous
Fast Reactions
Great Luck (possibly)
Regeneration
Super Reflexes (high enough to have both special abilities)


i also thought about possibly precognition... or possibly something to mimic a kids tv show i saw once, i cant remember the name, but the character could calculate the odds of doing something, basically in the middle of doing it..

that does go against the idea of Street Climb though, as their philosophy is dont stop, keep going.

well, after looking back over the boiok, im not sure black gene/black october is the route im wanting..lol

i'll probably just go human, no factions

although since the hidden protagonists in my game is the USER its likely that the villian has a similiar origin as the "heroes"

All of the above sound spot on. Maybe even add in some sort of disadvantage stating that he must stay in motion at ALL times. Maybe he’s an ancient Elohim in Lethe that thinks he is the god of the wind or travelers.

Precognition is a great power for what you suggested and is written just that way in the book. Maybe he has to be in motion to uses certain powers such as Precognition, Luck or Regeneration..

Off topic, but what server are you on Prophet?

I just got my MA Scrapper to 24, and am having a blast with it.

Coolness. I made one of those up very recently and got him to like 6. I likes the huge fire aura powers.

Yeah things got pretty cool for me about 21 on, when I started going to Talos and Striga and Dark Astoria and doing some of the really cool "temp power" missions and arcs.

You ever get over to Guardian give me a holler. I'm Jade Kabuki (Project 329 global ID). :)

I'm making a CoH site to catalogue my characters and useful links at http://coh.geekretreat.com. It's got a few things on it now, and is on my up and coming website list, along with a WoW guild site, and a GSA review site. :o

yeh temp powers are fun, my first was the vahzilok wasting disease..lol

now i have this idol thingy, that drains life..

i have it for 3 days before i have to give it to MAGI... but it says 3 real days... so i guess that means IRL days, and i assume that i cannot return it before then, i tried, they wouldnt take it

my main character is Mattox, but i have a few others on justice, like Shining Demon, and friggin ripoff of Akuma from street fighter!..

lol

That was my first temporary power too.

Did you try to fight Dr. Vahzilok? I unleashed everything I had on him....whipping out punch and kick combos that would reduce any other foe to pulp......and then looked with disbelief at the tiiiiiny bit of HP I had actually taken off of him. He pulled out an axe the size of....well....ME, and after I muttered "Umm....is there a problem officer?" 85% of my HP went bye bye in one hit (in which he tried very hard to bounce me off the wall on the other side of the room). It went downhill from there. :rolleyes:

I loved that idol! Being a scrapper I used the heck out of it for a quick pick me up when I was out of Heal insps. It was a HECK of a drain on Endurance though.

I now have a magic wedding ring that fires up a blue flame that protects me from all forms of damage (that I can use for 1 hour total of activation) and a stun power that I can use 20 times. I like the ones that don't expire if you don't use them.

(Heh....I know I'm geeking out off topic in the GSA forums, but I promise I'm working on character concept stuff for my Ka vampire right now!)
