Argonite is a mystical metal created only at the moment of a hero's death. For example, Achilles sword would be solid Argonite now... the name of course comes from Jason and the Argonauts.

Nice job! I've got to say that I've had a soft spot for elastic heroes ever since Elastigirl... :) Mr. Fantastic, well, I like the character but his stretching abilities are really almost a sideline for him. Never really read much about the DC stretchers, so I never thought about how fun they could be.

Points look okay to me. Only things I saw are:

I'd put the "Can't change color" limitation on the Mimic specifically (if it applies to stretching too -which sounds a little dubious- then the multipower's cost would be 5, right?).

Your point total indicates 6 pts of weakness, but on a quick look the two weaknesses have the names of two 2pt weaknesses (ie, Damaging and Negating). I assume one of them is the 4 pt Devastating version, but I'm not sure which.

Hey AlsanC!

Okay, I love the whole Zenithverse and just about everything I've seen you do, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE me some Max Plastic. He seems like so much FUN! Everything from his origins as a stand-up comic, to the power set, to the Odd Squad. This guy is GREAT!

Thanks for sharing!

Best,

Dragonfly

P.S. I've been following the Play-By-Post thread (or at least I was for awhile). I haven't asked to come in just because my own projects (both gaming and non-gaming related) have been keeping me too busy to commit, but I'm enjoying it just the same whenever I get the time to see what's going on.

Tick-Tock and Max Plastic are great! Villains going good? (Where's the profit and fun in that? -- Fantastic!) Nice art accompanying them as well!

Nice one Aslan. I have that same image somewhere (or one just like it). Look forward to seeing the new art when you get it done too

Silverbolt:
I'd suggest taking super speed 5 instead of mixing super speed 3 with swift strike. Also, gadget limitations have to include either easily taken, fragile, or ammuntion; so I would not take a limitation on the helmet or armor.

That is done to show that he can't do EVERYTHING super fast, not to get 3 attacks a round. :)

I understand that from the R.A.W., but for my campaign, ALL gadgets can either be taken or destroyed or damaged, hence they ALL get the Limitation Gadget. :)

Thanks for the suggestions though.

I'm actually doing something similar with the speedster for the Guardians of Liberty, Velocity Jane. Since she hasn't had her powers long (only a few months), I figured giving her a 3 in super-speed was more than enough.

Oh and I like what you did with the attacks. One of my ideas for VJ (which I'm stealing from a Marvel character named Super Sabre) is a push attack at touch range. He would run up at super speed, and basically hit you with a sonic boom. His fist never actually lands though, and it would knock people back pretty far (which is why I went with a push attack).

Anyway, Arrow looks pretty cool too. Love his background!
