Re: The Justice League in THS!
I could mention examples from gold plated toilets to civilian space shuttles... But I will instead just say Dubai, and leave it at that.

Re: The Justice League in THS!
Wasn't it Serena who said"The only difference between witchcraft and Richcraft, is with richcraft you don't fly as high." And in THS that distinction is gone.

Re: The Justice League in THS!
For the bricks, we can probably assume that the Inflitration Android version of the Cyberdoll is near or at the limits of the technology. Running Eidolons that think they are Superman, Wonder Woman, and Martial Manhunter respectively. Might as well give John Chameleon 4 (Extended Infrared) while you are at it.
For Bruce Wayne, and Oliver Queen, bio-roid versions of the Ziasundra, raised in a virtual environment reflecting their comic book histories, should work. For the Lanterns, bio-roid versions of a gene-fixed human upgrade with +1 will, might work. Raised of course in virtual environments based on their comic book histories. You'll probably want to end each of these with a reason for the rings to no longer work. Black Canary can be made as custom Cyberdoll with a built in Affliction 2(?)* (Cone 2, Accessibility (Only in Atmosphere), Reduced Range 4). Probably with Limited Use because I imagine such a thing is a massive power drain. *Not really sure what the limits are for sonic stunners. They are clearly technologically possible, but not as effective as electrolasers. Last edited by sir_pudding; 05-02-2012 at 03:19 PM. |

But you could simulate running around the world by stashing multiple shells (the more the better) and transferring between them. Potentially, the AI doesn't even have to know that's what it's doing, though that could be tricky. |

Re: The Justice League in THS!
Thanks Sindri. They've been cleaned away. I guess you're a superhero too.
Which leads to a broader question. Since the Superhero genre seems tough and adaptable, what kinds and styles of superheros are in the fiction and pop culture of THS?

Re: The Justice League in THS!
I would imagine with how fast and complicated life has become, the appeal of simple good vs. evil and just punching your problems away would increase if anything.

Superheros jumped from fiction serialised in Newspapers in French, to novels in several languages, to Comics in several languages. It looks like a viable meme to me.
