That's your opinion. Most people hate it when he becomes emo and jerky. The best Superman stories are when hes like Superman vs The Elite.


Oh I have no problem with his personality, its just that why have any other JL member who isn't Martian Manhunter when Superman can do everything they can do but better all in one package with realistically no weakness. Heck even kryptonite isn't really a weakness, its far too rare and he can still fight even when affected by it if he wants or even crush it in his hands with no ill effects.

Only stories I liked were the DCAU ones since he wasn't a gary stu there and had more personality beyond the straightman, but really considering how damaging of a character he is to DC its hard to like him past that. There is a reason that DC would go bankrupt if they lost Batman, and Superman is one of them. That and the confusing new 52 reboot, but we don't talk about that. xD

Though come to think of it, weirdly if you ignore comic superman entirely, hes not that bad at all. He had some good movies in the 80s-90s, and he hasn't pulled planets and whatnot. Just don't play Superman 64. Seriously friends don't let friends play that game. Its really really bad. (TOO MANY RINGS >.<)

@Archmage MC ummm... I would like to point out two things about your post.

1. Only one (maybe two) people out of like 20 have gone. So she isn't going last.

2. This was designed to withstand people with super strength, size, and heavier then average weight.


Oh, ok. No one was posting for a couple days so I decied to go. Figured there were only 8 or so people since Hachi is incapped and your char felt like she wanted to go last as to not ice up everything and the rest aren't in gym.

And the ring thing is more her bad luck, I wasn't sure on the doors since people without super strength lifted them just fine. I'll edit stuff if you need me to no problem. How should I edit it?
Alrighty, Light's done with the course. Who wants to go next?

<Snipped quote by Archmage MC>

Because I love the mythos and if you look I didn't add the any of the other kryptonian powers.


Thats fine then. I just don't like seeing a bunch of supermans running around xD. He kinda ruins DC singlehandedly if hes not the villain or its DCAU where they neutered him and made him more or less balanced with everyone else.

After watching some of her new friends do the course, Jasper exhausted from his run, as well as a new girl who talked with hachi, who gave off an aura of cold. "Ya know, I WAS going to wait, but this looks fun." Light said, getting up and walking to the start of the course.

There was a lot of positives to having super strength, one of them being that physical activities didn't really tire you out. And that was the case for most of the course. The first obstacle wasn't that bad, while she was unlucky, Light had phenomenal balance due to always having to walk on what were essentially needles every day, and it showed with how effortlessly she could keep her balance while jumping form slanted platform to slanted platform.

Parts two, three, four, and five didn't really pose much of a problem. She could easily hold her own weight using the rings and pegs, and she was happy nothing bad happened, as she was worried one of them was going to fall or something. Then there was part 3 that didn't really work so well in the modesty department since she wore a dress, but Light didn't really care too much. (In fact she never really understood why people intentionally shame themselves over stuff like this, and she was actually curious as to how many people did look at her in that section.) And part four was just a more fine tuned balance thing. Sure she left little pin holes in the rubber where she stepped, but other than that the balancing beam was a casual walk for her. And part five, well, super strength carried her through it once again. Though the last few doors were a bit trickier. Apparently they scaled with how well you did on the earlier ones. At least they thought about people like her when making this course!

The last part she decided to not do. While she could probably scale it, leaving large holes in it due to her feet would hurt the course for the people who hadn't gone yet. So instead she decided to take off one of her gloves and slash the air. The first time she did this, the wormhole she made decided it didn't want to have anything to do with her, and exploded in Light's face in a puff of purple smoke. Coughing while waving away the smoke, she tried again, and managed to make her way to the top of the obstacle. Having finished the course, she slid down the ramp and made her way back to where she was sitting, putting her glove back on.

"Well, thats done. Be nice if that 6th one wasn't rubber, but that was really easy. Super Strength FTW." Light said to the group with a toothy grin. "Wonder whos going to go next? she said, sitting down and getting into a relaxed position. She didn't mind the cold.

I just felt that having a good amount of forms would give my character some variety.


Just being a krypton, knowing even more than 1 or 2 is a bit much. Indestructable is one of the best defensive powersets out there. Plus all those other powers you get just due to the race thing.

but I'm so incredibly bias that I hate Superman so take this with a grain of salt..

Actually why not drop the kryptonian thing altogether and just be a shapeshifter? You can still shapeshift into kryptonian plants and whatnot, but you wont be Superman on top of that.

Not a GM, but thats my 2c If you need to rebalance.
@Archmage MC That depends. What's your price range?

Haha, my poor Kassy's going to look at that course like "...is there an underwater option?"


@Archmage MC'
I might

let me contact them and see if they'd do it for you for a dragon egg.


If they are good and do the style I want and don't mind doing a bunch of simple sketches til they get Light right, I don't mind paying upwards of 40+ for a full color/inked picture. I know I had a game industry friend who offered their artist, but they were backed up on commissions til 2017 and they wanted about 60 which is what I expected.

So... Do you guys want Light to do the course now? Chances are a bit of it might be broken afterwords, she is very unlucky after all.
Does anyone have a good artist I can commission to get a picture of Light?
Now I can't add a picture, how big of a problem is that going to be?

Seeing her claws, Jasper had quite a few questions about them, Light answering "In Order, uh... really sharp, I don't know, but I can gash steel, and neither. They're more like ripper claws than anything. Think finger, but its a claw." Apparently Light was ahead of the curve with these two, as two more students joined their group. One seemed to be a bit freaked out by Light, but the other didn't even notice her. "Hello, I'm Light. No hero name yet, no point when you don't care if baddies know you or not." Light said, waving to the newcomers. Before she could say much more, Best spoke up and introduced the obstacle course, which was what they'd be doing today.

"Oh, this looks easy. Besides that last one, dunno if these little ladies can run up an incline like that." Light said, lifting her leg to show her pointy legs. Hachi then got up, eager to go first but was stopped by his brother who saw him trying to deal with his injury. After convincing him to sit back down, Hachi causing the room to get cold for a moment, something Light didn't really care about, Jasper went up instead. "I think I'll go close to last. On second look that 2nd part looks a bit... well, not hard but I got a feeling I wont mix well with it."
Hey @Mistress Dizzy Light is over by Jasper and them too. Sorry if you were there before me and I didn't notice, I figured Panther's characters were alone.
OK who goes first? Or is it whoever posts first?

Also it kinda looks like Light will dominate all but the 5th one. Dunno how well pointed feet do with something like that xD Though she shouldn't go first, because it'll be more fun for everyone if she doesn't. those little poles don't look very stable...
