El Santo

Post by Sijo »

As promised, here is Mexican Luchador El Santo (or his idealized movie version) in BASH terms. Please note I only saw a few of the Santo movies (and none of his comics) so this adaptation might be selling him short. :P

I would probably give him some supernatural like powers since he fought vampires, werewolves and all manner of monsters.

Here is a link to a Champions write up of the character. http://www.sysabend.org/champions/gnbor ... nto-ks.txt

@Solarblast: I always loved the Champions setting; the rules system, not so much. I prefer simpler systems like BASH.

As for Santo, as I mentioned I have not seen as much of him as I have about say, Kaliman. The impression I got from the movies was that he beat monsters with a combination of tenacity and luck; you could say the same about many other heroes such as Batman. Still, interesting build. :)

I prefer BASH too. I got tired of running it because I had to do all the work.

Very nice, but his Martial Arts Mastery should only be 2 character points.

Very neat character that I'd probably use in my next BASH! Campaign.

Also might be fun to see a team up of all the characters you've posted so far.

Whoops, you're right- I'll fix it. Thanks!

If you do use Santo, let me know how it goes!

And btw, I write fanfiction as well (you can read some of my stories here http://www.quotev.com/ElSijo) so who knows, I might just do that someday. In particular, a Kaliman/Fantomas battle/team-up sounds promising...
