They out to re-do him like this to better reflect the comics:

Body Armor:-5CS damage from blunt attacks

Electronics
Engineering,

I've been working on a few projects for my games lately and while I've managed to figure out some of the Quicks from the series "My Hero Academia" for my game, but I'm having problem with coming up with the rules for the "Black Whip" quirk and I was wondering if anyone here on the forums could help me figure it out by any chance?

Here is the wiki page on the Quirk in Question.

I originally thought it was something akin of energy based tendrils (ala Marc Slayton/Backlash from Wildstorm's StormWatch & WildCore series of comics) but then the more that I read into it, the more that I realized that its range was definitely unique.]]>

So, my question is, what is the showing between these two? I was under the impression Submariner was the superior in general and could basically defeat Attuma consistently in a 1v1. However, it looks like this would be closer to an even split with a significant number of writeups giving an edge to Attuma. Does Submariner outfox Attuma or something usually? I don't have much experience with Namor outside of the FF and Avengers. Also, this could probably by in canon character writeups, but I am curious mostly about comic feats. For Namor in general, he has really impressive feats in the comics, so how come he is so fragile compared to Hulk and Thor in the writeups when he seems to be pretty consistently in their league? Have I missed a lot of poor showing s by him in the comics?]]>

Pulling from inspiration from 5e D&D....what if mages could use Spellbooks and cast spells out of it? This gives some needed versatility, but with the vulnerability of an item, and requiring extra time for reading of the spell.

The spellbook could be created and modified via Building Things rules. Maybe all mages can start with one item?

Thinking out loud here....thoughts?]]>

Identity: Mudd
Real name: Kyle Rollins
Group: unaffiliated at the moment
Origen of Powers: mutation
Citizenship: US citizen without a criminal record
Occupation: student

Appearance: Before his mutation manifested Rollins was tall and athletic, with a Hollywood smile. Now however, he has let himself go,and is quite the slob. His unkempt, disheveled appearance masks his formerly all-american good looks.
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 235 lbs.
Hair color: light brown
Eye color: blue
Age: 22


Fighting: EX (16)
Agility: EX (16)
Strength: EX (17) (IN (45))
Endurance: RM (26)*
Reason: GD (8)
Intuition: RM (26)
Psyche: RM (26)

Health: 75 / 103
Karma: 60

Resources: PR(3)*
Popularity: SH(0)* (unknown to the public)

* Random mutation: +1CS Endurance, -1CS Popularity, -1CS Resources

Powers:
S14: Body Coating (Mud) AM (50) : Unlike some famous heroes who can wrap themselves in a firery wreath, or a nigh-impenetrable forcefield, Mudd can sheathe himself in a thick layer of… mud. Although unglamorous and better at keeping everybody at a distance than any forcefield, this mud offers considerable protection against attacks. This is secreted from the pores in his skin, and this coating allows for his other powers to manifest.

Note: All of Mudd's powers only function when he is covered in mud, whether his own body coating or any other mud (or, most often, a mixture of the two).

P36: Solar (Mud) Regeneration IN (38) : As per the normal power, except that the power only functions when he is covered in mud. These "mud baths," although extremely effective, have not endeared him to his teammates.

P27:Nonstick Coating IN (36) : Mudd's body coating makes him all but impossible to grapple or secure; many attacks simply slide off his muddy form, like "A greased pig, but ten times worse" according to one teammate.

P20:Hyper-Strength RM (28) : When "muddy" (Rollins' term for activating his body coating) his strength and health rise to the number on the right, boasting class 45 strength level.

P18:Hyper-Intake/Expulsion AM (46) : His most notorious power, Rollins has at the simplest level the "Super Breath" power similar to ohers such as Ben Grimm (Thing) and Bruce Banner (Hulk). Able to ingest solids, liquids, and gases equally well, he has shrewdly used this power in a number ways that likely never occured to Grimm or Banner. One example was when he emptied a jacuzzi right before departing on a mission; upon arrival he promply spit out the contents, creating an instant mud puddle at the battlesite. Another is to quickly incapacitate an opponent by swallowing him, and then either spitting him out with great force at other enemies or directly into a jail cell. Yet another tactic is his most infamous:

Spitball Special: A variant on the Fastball Special performed by Colossus and Wolverine, this tactic involves Rollins using Deadpool (everyone else flatly refuses to do it) as a projectile, swallowing him and spitting him out at the target. Use normal rules for this power, although the referee is absolutely within his rights to require an Agility feat roll to hit the target; keep in mind the power's range should Rollins miss. Deadpool hates this tactic, but only agrees to it because no one else will do it.

P11: Digestive Adaption AM (46) : Mudd's muddy coating, and his metabolism in general, is highly acidic. So much so, that he can break down and digest anything and extract nutrients and fuel. The origin of his nickname "Trashmouth" he has even used this in combat, swallowing a live grenade and thus harmlessly neutralizing it. He has yet to find a substance short of genuine Vibranium or Adamantium that he can't digest.

P25:Lung Adaptability IN (36) : His protective muddy layer also enters and covers his respiratory tract and , through a form of Osmosis, can break down any gas to provide oxygen (the rest is essentially assimilated into the mud). This permits Rollins to breathe normally in any gas or liquid environment.

Notes: 1) Both Digestive and Lung adaptations confer upon Rollins absolute immunity to poisons and toxins (at the ShY(200) level), whether solid, liquid, or gas.
2) A side effect of this is when "muddy" rollins has severely reduced senses of smell and taste, which undoubtedly contributed to his slovenly manners.
3) Another side effect is that his flesh and blood, to say nothing of his muddy outer layer, is extremely toxic. Some X-Men have debated (only half-jokingly) if a Predator-X could actually swallow Mudd before dying of a painful poisoning.

Talents:
Student: Rollins was a student at the Xavier School for Gifted individuals, but since the move to Krakoa he has let his studies fall by the wayside. The only area that he never slacks off in is combat training. Still the gifted athlete he always was, this is the only area where he still shows any discipline.

Contacts:

1) Krakoa : Rollins became a citizen of Krakoa, and has lived there when not on missions. He is a mostly respected part of the community, but the Quiet Council has a policy of loaning Mudd out as much as possible to various teams. This is primarily to keep him busy, due to his tendency to get into trouble when bored. It is undeniable that he is one of the more notorious among mutants, for his antics like the Spitball Special (see above) and the like.

2) Logan ( Wolverine ) : This friendship is a result of the two men serving together on both the Unity Division and X-Force. The two have a synergy in combat , but also a love of excursions into the wilderness. On the other hand, Logan has gone on record as saying that some of his toughest battles have been trying to convince Rollins to take a shower.

Background:

Born to a reasonably successful middle class family Kyle Rollins had it all, or so he thought. A gifted athlete, he was an all-state pick for the state's All-Star football at only sixteen years of age. And again at seventeen, and a third time at eighteen. This was in addition to being a two-time state champion in the decathlon. As a result, offers of athletic scholarships from big name universities poured in. The future seemed bright, but then it all came crashing down. At his high school graduation party, Rollins got himself throroughly drunk; at one point he fell into a large puddle of mud and passed out. His friends, also thoroughly inebriated, simply laughed at their unconscious friend lying in the mud and continued their merrymaking. When Rollins finally woke up he was still lying in the mud but now oddly felt better than he ever had before. Further, he was now facing members of the infamous X-Men. With bemused expressions they explained to Rollins that he was a mutant and that they were there to make him an offer better than any university could. Knowing full well that his status as a mutant meant he could kiss all of the athletic scholarships goodbye, Rollins accepted their offer and accompanied them to Xavier's Institute for gifted youngsters.

Initially excited by the thought that he would wield powers like the X-Men, soaring through the sky or using superhuman strength to fight evil, Rollins would be sorely disappointed. Instead of "cool powers" Rollins inherited the ability to sheathe himself in… mud. While crestfallen, he nevertheless became a student at the school, eventually migrating to Krakoa. He was a good student at the institute, but the nature of his powers, combined with his degenerating personal habits earned him a bad reputation among other mutants. Rollins served in both X-Force and the Unity Division of the Avengers, the general theme each time being to send Rollins as far in front of everyone else as possible. His tenures on the teams was defined primarily by two things: the respect he earned from heavyweights such as Logan (Wolverine) and Steve Rogers (Capitain America) for his dedication. Both of the far more famous heroes have vouched for Rollins' determination in the face of adversity. The second defining aspect is the now infamous "Spitball Special." A hastily improvised variant of the famous "Fastball Special" that involves using Wolverine as a projectile, Rollins used his ability to swallow and forcefully regurgitate anything to literally spit Deadpool (Wade Wilson) at an escaping helicopter. Although the chopper was airbourne and gaining distance, Rollins accurately hit the helicopter with Deadpool, who proceeded to kill the occupants inside the chopper. The now legendary episode recounts that the entire team was still laughing with tears in their eyes when Deadpool returned from the now crashed helicopter. Wade Wilson himself has said that had he known what was going to happen he would have stabbed Rollins with both swords instead of accepting. Logan, for his part, still chuckles whenever the event is mentioned- a common event since everyone on Krakoa has heard about the Spitball Special.

Another defining period for Rollins was during the Hydra takeover: he answered the call by the Underground and fought against the Hydra forces. On multiple occasions he proved to be especially well suited for infiltrations, due to his ability to operate independently. It was also during this time his teammates began to worry about his mental health. On at least one occasion Rollins was seen to actually swallow a Hydra agent, not for a Spitball Special but to consume. Rollins has claimed that it was a mistake due to the heat of the moment, but some wonder if it is the start of a worrying trend...

Personality:

Having come to terms with the nature of his mutation, Rollins has learned to live for the moment. He enjoys the superhero lifestyle, and is at his most animated when on a mission. Conversely, he is easily bored in the downtime between missions. His abilities give him a great capacity to live off the land, which he regularly does. These excursions frequently resulted in local alarms being raised by frightened locals concerning "Monsters in the woods." Since relocating to Krakoa the mutant community has had an easier time keeping Rollins out of trouble, mostly by loaning him out to X-Force, Avengers Unity Division, or anyone else who can keep him busy. In combat he is direct and absolutely lacking in subtlety; he will frequently scream and toss things in order to attract the enemy's attention, generally making an excellent distraction for the rest of the team. Most would blanch at the thought of serving as a decoy, but Rollins understands full well and couldn't care less. He has picked up the ( bad ) habit from Deadpool of cracking jokes and puns during fights, getting groans from even Cpt. Rogers.
