Just waiting on the Dilpo Doc Colab. Heh.

XCOM 2: Make your own character, see how he/she does.

The Avatar Project is nearing completion: the Commander is racing against the clock to make contact with new global regions, decimate alien strongholds, facilities, and blacksites, while keeping his XCOM operatives alive and safe.

This is just a simple little... experiment? I've heard other people doing it, so.

Here's what you do: Give me a character. Name, gender, general appearance, and attitude, and I'll make a character in my XCOM 2 game to fit it. Then, I take them out on missions and report to you, whoever made that character, what class they became, general performance, etc. In story form, of course.

Here's a short storyline of the XCOM series:

2015: Alien invasion. XCOM is designated to be the counter force to the aliens
2016: XCOM fails, and is destroyed; the aliens take over
2020: Human population subdued from active rebellion
2025: Human population calmed and generally subdued
2026: ADVENT created to be the common peacekeepers; troopers and the like.
2027: Human scientists and engineers are recruited to work on alien technologies
2035: Various rebels- soldiers, survivors of the former XCOM, scientists, engineers- gather again to reform XCOM and fight back

So, here's a little sheet:

Name:
Nickname:
Gender:
Backstory: (Optional- put date of birth and such in here. Current date is 2035)
General appearance: (Sharper face, scarred, tattooed, etc.)
Attitude: (By the book, hard luck, intense, happy-go-lucky, twitchy)
Class: (Ranger is CQC, Grenadier is heavy weapons, Sharpshooter is ranged combat, Specialist is support and medium range)
Subclass: (Ranger: Assault or Scout. Grenadier: Demolitions Expert or Gunner. Sharpshooter: Sniper or Gunslinger. Specialist: Battle Medic or Combat Hacker)
Other: Anything else you'd like to add.

Accepted/Approved Characters:

@WilsonTurner

If you're on PC you can actually import characters via the Creator menu thing which totally escapes my memory. I actually made one to be imported.

@VATROU Oh I get it. Basically like a targeting rocket launcher, except not explosive and not a missile.

@Chaotic Chao

My thoughts are, the bolts are honing in on the overcharged energy you injected the enemy with that is why you need to charge an object and why the bolts cannot do that themselves as they expel all their energy at once.

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

@VATROU Wait, so do I need a object to throw like an bolt. Or do I just make an bolt out of my hands and it targets the person I'm aiming for?

@Chaotic Chao

My idea was, you could toss out bolts but if you want to mark someone you'd need to mark an object to touch an enemy. This would give you an auto aim to hurl bolts from around corners even if you cannot see them, so long as you don't lose sight for too long.

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

@VATROU That's not a bad idea.

So basically, a sort of telekenisis?

@Chaotic Chao

Kinda, it's like marking an object so you can fire off explosive bolts with extreme accuracy.

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

@Chaotic Chao Maybe instead of using thrown objects, you just need a physical connection to do that you can toss an object a playing card or whatever so that touch extends to your enemy. Then your powers could lock on and you could toss bolts from wherever you are as long as you don't lose sight of them for too long.

@Fallenreaper Don't forget, Barron is like backup plan D or F at this point. In case neither of these outcomes come to pass once Season 1 ends.
