New Character Idea?
#1
Sooo my original plan was Czernobog from an old story (can't remember the name, it had a weird translation.) Little room for growth and story. Next idea was the Gamer - weellll... I'd have to start early, and entirely reconstruct his mechanics to play well with Omniphysics. Zaraki Kenpachi has been claimed for future use (rule of dibs...) Sooo here are my ideas laid out;

First Idea: Nerd
A spinnoff of the Gamer using Omniphysics and starting from Level 1. Could use means to copy abilities and just start from there.

Second Idea: Klyntar
Maybe a Symbiote similar to Venom, but... not... A Secondary would be the original host, though they'd offer pretty much nothing useful, so it would be 100% Symbiote, and thus not against the rules! Basically, the secondary would be what they are good for; fodder.


Third Idea: Kenpachi's Rival
Ichigo Kurosaki isn't taken... I could definitely go with the most obvious choice and frontline for Bleach...

Fourth Idea: Overlord 
From a game of the same name, this idea is plausible because the minions are so stupid that they do NOTHING without "Remote Control" by the Master... Problem is, he doesn't talk. Ever. This could be an interesting quirk, or a devastating downfall.

Fifth Idea: Hollow 
This is potentially a great or horrible idea. Starting off from the base level, there is a lot of villainy involved, but also a great point of weakness on the road to becoming a powerful Vasto Lorde... the Gillian stage. Lots of inner turmoil, or just... an extended time of vulnerability.

Sixth Idea: Be a Hero 
From the Fable series, a Hero has a lot of well rounded options and interesting spells.






I'm looking for help either narrowing down the list, or possible alternates. The criteria I'm looking for is simple:
  • EXTENDED Playability. They should be able to interact in some way, shape or form with other Primes.
  • Growth. I can tone them down if necessary, but I would like to look forward to improvement power-wise.
  • Possible story applications. Maybe possible drives in the Omniverse, things to inspire them, to make the above two even better.
  • Familiarity. I'd like to be at least somewhat familiar with the character in question, unless I make a DC out of them, or their source.
If anyone has any suggestions, pros or cons of my suggestions, or other ideas to help out a newb, I'd love to hear them. And yes, I know I'm a bit (read as "very") fickle at times. I just want to make sure the one character I'm stuck with is enjoyable.

The Overlord could be cool.

I like the Klyntar Idea, it's very creative.

The Overlord has that major drawback of no dialogue. We don't even know if he has inner dialogue.

Thinking about dialogue and other social interactions though, the symbiote would be chock full of them... Imagine it's host: a secondary elevated to the level of a Prime, so long as it allows this symbiote to live off of, and with them.

Klyntar moves up to first place... Overlord drops a rank...

Also, I'm removing Ichigo, 'cause I don't feel like being SUPER technical and blah.
