Venture Brothers "Hero" Generation

[Tadanori Oyama]

To get "in shape" for GenCon I'm gonna be running Wild Talents again, this time for a group that might actually know what their doing. However they also have a tendency to screw things up. I figure I'll turn that to my advantage and make the Wild Talents game themed after the Venture Brothers so that failure is really the only opinion for most of their "quests".

Much like the "real" Venture Brothers I want the world to be filled with heros and villains of varying degrees of ability. Rather than steal everything directly from the show (since I want to record these games) I'm asking for help in creating a bunch of people.

I don't mean their entire stat lines but general themes and a point range into which they would fit. I figure the average hero in the universe is going to be around 200 points, lower than the "average" of Wild Talents (250 points).

So, any ideas people have, I would be very grateful for.

The Notorious D.I.Y - a ghetto gadgeteer with armored SUV, sonic blast boombox and so forth.

[Shallazar]

Grizzled Adams (or something appropriate)

He has giant bear arms instead of human ones. Strength and claws, but just in his arms. I think 200pts is just fine.

The Raven - immortal revenant type that was immortal, gothic, angst ridden and brooding BEFORE it was popular. In other words, a goth hipster with super powers.

Make the Raven look just like the Crow and you have a winner.

Professor Philadelphia
Dr Manhattan without the godlike super powers, but does actually give people cancer... and is kind of a dick about it.

I think this is my favorite so far.

I've got this idea for a shapeshifter who can only assume the shape of chairs. Any kind of chair in the world, but only chairs. I can't think of a clever name.

[clockworkjoe]

just name her Chair and base her on Cher

[SageNytell]

Can't forget her loyal minion, Ceiling Fan Dion.

Mr. Normal - He only talks about the weather and other trivial news but his voice is so hypnotic it can shut down the powers of other supers.

Double post motherfuckers.

Cougar - Older OSI agent, super spy, who goes after younger men. Hits on all the young male PCs all the fucking time.

Mike D'Assassination - Half-man, half-assassin, all bro.

[Shallazar]

The Rememberer

His super power is post-cognition. He is really good at telling you about things that have already happened, but that's about it.

Alternatively there is the Amnesiac who makes people forget things- like their keys.
Dementio a criminal with dementia inducing powers.

Also can reach any spot in half an hour or less.

The Incredible-Delectable Human Hamburger


He's a hamburger. And also a man.

A manburger.
