    Cleric, I sent you a brief question.

    Well, I'm sorta curious about Hunter, and Salem interests me simply on account of having a master criminal alter ego.

    Xaric may also be fun, mainly because he and Doc Schneider are in the same field and he seems like the kind of person who'd seriously get on Diedrich's nerves. So, possible rivalry there. (At least a one-sided one, anyway.)

    like don't get me wrong I like the creativity of these powers and all but it's not exactly my bag to try and get all juiced up like that, esp since after playing in a Cleric RPG a few times i'ts rarely ever the powerhouse tactics that get you the win, but rather the powerhouse strategies or jsut being an outright clever bastard
    This. I'll briefly use Codex as an example. When I created Kyle, I had a pretty fair idea of what I wanted his first few powers to be, but when I looked at his powers halfway through, and looked at other people's powers, I felt like he was lacking. Like I saw these guys with the esoteric, powerful powers and saw Kyle and felt inadequate. All the talk about SHR and their OP powers made this only worse.

    You should have put all your points into speed honestly with some speed related power here and there. Sure, it is a gimmick, but it was your gimmick, and a powerful one if used right.

    He's a (reformed) conman, so being clever is in his job description

    Also, he's the only one who came out looking good during our first encounter with Big Bad Blue Eyes, because he was clever with his powers.

    I still think Kyle is cool even if he reminds me of the dude from blue mountain state

    I planned on doing that, but the inadequacy got in the way. :-/

    srsly

    with Ramus I liked the thought of a speedster type of guy and went in that direction full tilt and super agile

    then when I hit the cap, I loaded points elsewhere (strength)

    Thanks man. I wanted to make him a suave ladies man/frat boy type guy, like Gregory before Liv got her talons into him. I think I did a pretty good job :)

    I am totally going to post the possible substitute sometime within the next two hours.

    I am... just trying to figure out how much I should flesh out this profile. It's not much more than barebones right now.

    I can understand that. I mean, Raph's power set is not exactly like how I imagined it... mainly because his original power set and role in battle required/assumed a level of teamwork, and I also got distracted by Raphael's powers.

    I think it's good you changed it then, because teamwork would not have happened
