Why not just play Champions once the CyberHero supplement comes out!

Hee hee hee... do you _really_ want to freak out your party? Especially
one with a physical adept who happens to be hot with a sword? Create
a free spirit (immunity to normal weapons, of course), who speaks in
a deep, gravelly voice, wears a leather jacket with the sleeves ripped
off, has a scar through his neck with many safety pins sticking through it,
and a _huge_ motherfraggin' sword.

Better yet, have him show up on the party's proverbial doorstep shouting
"THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!!" He may not be a comic book character, but
oh, how fun he would be...

Your humble servant,
Smiling Wolf

Why don't we make Bozo into a Street Mage? ... Not!! Why make ANY comic
schmucks into characters for ANY game? No offense, but get an imagination!
