Celestine's Character Info

Post your stuff here. Your character concept from Games Tavern is (mostly) fine, but you can certainly tweak it.

The only critique I have is with Hold Down An Actual Job (1), because your description makes it clear he can't (won't?) hold down an actual job.

Maybe something like Gig Economy Opportunist (1) or Anything to Pay the Bills (1). Something to make it clear he's juggling different things.

To be fair, at 1 die he fails "A Challenge For A Schmuck" 2/3rds of the time, the flavor text is reflective of the fact that he's not actually good at holding down a job - but he is trying. Still, even with the intention to bump it as the team gets more established, I can see what you're saying.

How do you feel about Perpetual Part-Timer? (I'm kinda falling into this alliterative groove when tinkering with Rebound). Might better reflect his breadth of work experiences, ability to snag new work without his scattershot work history seeming to slow him down, and ability to pay rent even while managing the superhero thing.

Yeah, Perpetual Part-Timer is fine. Gives us good insight into his resourcefulness...or is he just too rebellious or stubborn to stick with a single full-time job? Guess we'll find out!

I have nothing else to critique. Post all your info here when you're ready. 👍

And yes: target number rolls scale based on the cliche's applicability. So a 1-dice cliche is still useful, if specific to the situation. Like someone with Enhanced Strength (1) is still more buff than the average person, and would be able to kick down a standard wooden door automatically.

Quick sketch, I know his shoes don't match. Costume color is kind of a navy blue with gold accents, brown hair

Superhero Name: Rebound
Real Name: Derek O'Shay

At a science expo, Derek O'Shay was arguing with another student that a device that siphons kinetic energy from a parallel dimension doesn't qualify as a "perpetual motion device" when the the sinister agents of SERPENT (that's the Society of Evil Reptile People Engaging in Nefarious Tasks for those of you at home) blew the front off of the venue. Derek was thrown into the machine, which malfunctioned, and in doing so permanently bound his body to the kinetic flow of another world before SERPENT stole his buddy (along with a number of other young scientific prodigies).

Wearing a mask to protect his identity, Rebound has been on the super-science crime beat ever since. Unmasking android infiltrators, injecting retromutagens in malicious mutates, punching up power armored punks, his quest to rescue his friend from the coils of SERPENT has kept the battling bouncer on the move

Bouncing Kinetic Hero: 4
- Superhuman Reflexes & Agility, Kinetic Manipulation, 360 degree Kinetic Awareness
Banter and Blather: 3
- If being a streamer has taught Derek any kind of life skill, it's how to yap in high intensity situations. It distracts foes, endears with bystanders, and most importantly engages with the opposition as people. Give people a window to talk back, and they'll almost always want to share their story, and that frequently means they let slip something useful.
Budget Gadgeteer: 2
- Rebound might not have access to a super advanced lab, but he is surprisingly talented at repurposing busted consumer electronics and scrapyard materials into superhero gear.
Perpetual Part-Timer: 1
- Streamer, Cellphone Repair Guy, Uber Eats Delivery: Superheroing might not pay the bills, but in the gig economy nobody thinks twice about a guy juggling five jobs with flexible schedules.

Gear: Kevlex bodysuit, blunt steel 4" diameter throwing discs, radio tracers, mask comms w/ police scanner and spotify, camera, disposable handcuffs.

Approved! You can RP your dramatic entrance whenever you want.
