now to answer some questions that Tyger posed about what they look like
(sorry Tyger, you get this twice).
IMPACT
"What's that?"
"Looks like a truck with legs."
-Cyberforce #1, couple 'o thugs before Impact demolished their van with a
move-through
Impact is about 10' tall, probably 1200 to 1400 lbs wrapped around his massive
frame (that would be 350 to 450 lbs if he were 6'10" - seriously thick in all
physical dimensions). He has grey skin, curly grey hair and red pupil-less
eyes. His armor is grey and green with gold trim at the shoulders, gloves and
boots. The gloves have the stylized finger reinforcements, in gold trim. (not
gold the metal, but yellow-gold the color). (issue #1 shows impact running
thru a van. he's about as big as the van. another panel shows impact standing
in the forground of a guy reaching for his gun. impact's leg and this thug
are the same size.) (i didn't bring issue #2 with me this morning, but impact
is usually about the same size).
now that i look back, i think his size got reduced a little bit to accomodate
the "reality" of the game. shadowrun ain't a comic book ("but it could
be!"
*gleam*). if you wanted impact to be "true" to his comic book form, then
you should probably give him the ability to "grow" from 10' to 20', adding
5 body and 10 strength (but anyone shooting at him does so at -1 TN cuz he's
a big target).
some other notes
velocity has white skin with a black "lightning bolt" on the right half of her
face - cheek to hairline, crossing her eye.
ripclaw has white skin, with black strips on his face to highlight his cheeks
and eyes (for that more sinister look)
the rest of them are boring old caucasions. stryker has blond hair, the right
half of his face is clearly cyber, his left eye appears organic and is blue.
heatwave has brown hair and wears a half-face mask which makes his eyes
appear pupil-less red (seems to be a trademark for these ppl or something).
cyblade also wears a half-face mask, making her eyes appear (you guessed it)
pupil-less red. she has black hair.
hope that helps, but again, i recommend the mag - if only because it offers
cool villains ;)
final note: after rereading the mag, (and rereading stryker as i wrote
him) i recommend ripping out the tactical computer. in the comic he's not
*that* good.
