Panau : Superheroes in a South American Warzone

So long as the adamantium suit isn't treated like Superman's skin I see no issue with that.

Oh sure, I'd just need it to maybe go toe-to-toe with your Wolverine character (if he has an adamantium skeleton) or at the very least delay your Superman character murdering him if ever. It could also be vibranium/carbonadium or some other metal that isn't quite as strong as adamantium but still lightweight. My intent for him is to make him more of a scientist and a political schemer than a pure fighter. Plus, the bionics and drugs he needs to maximize the suit’s potential are slowly killing him - another plot point.

Also another idea for a character arc: Panau's regime is generally very intolerant of superhumans unless their loyalty to the government is unquestionable. So there could be like two camps within the government/military: those that believe the regime should use superhumans and those that believe otherwise, instead preferring to neuter their powers or kill them. My Vulture character could be on the anti-super camp while yours would be the poster child for the pro-supers. Then tensions could possibly develop as the Prime Minister's health fails and a power struggle starts to arise.

Okay, I think I've come up with a character concept already.

"Vulture" in this world is a colonel in the Panauan air force, who with the help of the CIA developed his adamantium-coated wingsuit as a means to combat "enhanced individuals" in the field. Besides his overall terrifying combat presence when slaughtering resistance fighters, his scientific expertise means that he's basically like a pseudo-Batman who comes up with the military's contingencies for superhumans. He's been a loyal officer to the ruling regime for some time now, but the government's withering authority means that he is considering instigating a coup to "save the country" from the rebellion.

In short:

(On-the-nose condor analogies aside.)

I was thinking of a legit guerrilla movement like the ones they had in Latin America during the 70s.

Are we super set on a modern setting? 70s/80s might have the realest US-backed dictatorship vibes, but modern-day most likely means more modern skyscrapers for Spider-Che to websling from.

Also, since this setting is probably much more violent than usual I am wondering how Spidey will handle his/her no-killing rule. The guy could probably slaughter an entire platoon of soldiers in one go if he really tried hahaha

EDIT: I was also thinking of going with Vulture with a version of his Homecoming suit, or even just Venom.

I was thinking of a Spider-Girl/Silk iteration, where our notPeter Parker joins the underground resistance in her university instead.

@BangoSkank You still here? Or maybe another time?

Empire of the Empty Throne

Bit of a stupid question, but can humans and Gaulletics interbreed?

Panau : Superheroes in a South American Warzone

is this still a thing? lol

Panau : Superheroes in a South American Warzone

@BangoSkank …Huh. That does change things, was expecting it to be at the height of Operation Condor or Iran-Contra.

Panau : Superheroes in a South American Warzone

@BangoSkank Is there a specific decade/year you had in mind for the setting? Might affect my planned character to an extent

Taylor obliged, he figured that the native could probably handle himself. "You, uh, Sergio! That's your name, right? We gotta catch up with Bobby!" He also turned to Finney and Billy. "Uh, you two.. yeah, that sounds good. Try head them off from the back!"

He pointed upwards, at the roof of the express car under which Misti and Sparrow were fighting. "We can climb over this car to get to the front!" He started to climb the railings, intending to fight Bobby from the roof of the car.
