Spiderman build

Post by Jukeboxer »

Here's my rendition of the classic web-slinger, circa late 70s, I suppose (although I know longer have any of my original "source material" for reference). Thanks to Samuraidad and the forum for some assistance!

Notes: I realize that advantages/disadvantages is out of balance. I could combine Ward/Relationship into one disadvantage. Also, I'm not sure if Dumb Luck really belongs or not. Depends on the specific era... I also thought about adding the Finite limitation to Swinging (same source, webs), but I figured it could drain the shooters too quickly.

Looks good. If it's him in the 70's though, I'd change the relationship to Gwen Stacy, since that was his first love (until Goblin killed her). I also feel dumb luck is appropriate for him.

Thanks Urbwar! I would have never remembered that about Gwen Stacy. Wow... That damned Goblin.

The other thing that I'd like to capture is the taunting/wise-cracking effect. To some extent, Confusion as a subset of the web-shooters does this. I could simple add an enhancement to Confusion allowing Spidey to use that effect once per scene, verbally, without actually rolling a Finite check for web usage. I'm sure there are other options though.

Check out this post from Chris (and the rest of the thread if interested) for one of the other alternatives.

Ah yes, I need to paste that into my BASH notes! I think I will require a streetwise roll in this case! Thanks!
