I ask and my readers answer!

I mentioned yesterday on my other blog that I wanted to play a superhero game. Today a GM by the name of Mike invited me to join his new group to play White Wolf's Aberrant RPG. The twist is this group is playing all super villains. So as a group we all made our new villain characters. Since we are all just starting out we decided that we would try to work together to take over the town we live in. Though at some point, since we are EVIL, I will have to prepare for the eventual betrayal by my team mates. It would be nice if we all just went our separate ways. Of course graveyards are full of people who hoped for the best and never prepared. Blogging it here may not be brilliant but I don't have to tell them what my plans are... Mu-ha ha ha ha!!!
My villain is a very powerful mega-morph, with super strength and toughness. I'm still thinking up a name. I'm currently trying to remove the gang element from the city (Pittsburgh) we play in, so to take it over more easily. Some of the players want to work with the local gangs to use them as foot soldiers. But as a character with a serve mental bend toward order he doesn't like their disorderly influence. As a villain that can change shape to anything he pleases, including anyone he has had sufficient time to observe, the local gangs are freaking out as members they've know for a long time go berserk killing them. I even pitched a particularly annoying one into orbit. He threw a grenade at me after all. I wonder if the shuttle crew will see him on one of their orbits? My character will have to keep an eye on the news for the next day till his orbit decays.
So far the other characters are with me and instead are working with the organized crime families. But in the end I think they will have to go too as sharing power with powerless mundanes is no fun and in bad taste. My character believes the universe didn't give him super powers just so he can hob knob with mere humans. Shaaa-right!

I love Aberrant, its a really fun game and playing villians sounds great.  Aberrant is a very "grey" game, where good, bad, right and wrong are all mixed up.

Sounds like fun! You should do something really insidious like slowly poison them all and Stash the antidote some place safe so you can blackmail them.

How do I edit this crap?

Please replace "first name" with "last name" - my bad. English for dummies ^^

I'd pick Ralph. No one expects Ralph to be a threat to their own evil careers. :)

And on the serious side, the combination of shapeshifting and uber strength/toughness is a special one, especially when paired with a mind like that. Somehow, I would immediately take him for either a brute or a really dangerous enemy, depending on the looks and my first impression. If he wears a suit, the second. Does he wear a suit? If not, go to the Tailor! :p

Think of the classics. Most characters - player or not - should entitle him as Mister something, nothing less. 'Sir' would be a nice addition. To the few who are allowed to use his given name, it should be something with meaning, something powerful. Alexander, for instance, or Magnus (If he looks like a Viking :p), though it is sometimes difficult from to pick an adequate first name. You could take something with the mystical touch, like Damian, Dorian or Lucian, thuogh those have been quite exploited over the last few years. Or you could settle for something rather harmless, like Terry, and just do it with the looks and the deeds..

Happy Villaining! :)
