Fullstop

This week has started smashingly. Not only did I miss last weeks gaming due to my retarded work hours, but I seem to have fallen sick with some sort of chest bug. Im working overtime tonight, and I can’t call in sick as I’m covering someone else.

Life, peachy. Excellant.

As far as Champions on the weekend went, there was a lot of character redevelopement. A lot of our players are unfamiliar with the Champions 5th system, so Dachmyre allowed us at the end of the first scenario to change our characters to suit.

Thus, Showdown, Sway and Sarinna have completely new characters. Showdown being KIA, Sway going insane and becoming an NPC and Sarinna realising her character wasn’t really family friendly. At the moment, as far as I know Showdown now plays a Teleporter from the far future, Sway is playing an Magic suppressant character with Techno based powers, and Sarinna comes walking straight out of Prince of Persia with time manipulation abilities.

I have actually yet to confirm that, so hold your horses on that one.

The bad thing was for those remaining characters the nerf bat came out and came out swinging. Remarkably enough it only glared menacingly my way, instead knocking Blizzaron out cold and smashing Azirel out of the park at speeds even one of his aura’s couldn’t match.

It knocked Showdowns initial concept down a couple of notches as well.

Due to the nature of the campaign though, it was pretty much a given it would happen. We have multiple. We have multiple characters with no coherent theme banded together. Everyone has wildly different powers, and I can  see it (being a part-time GM myself) how hard it can be to create a series of enemies who present a challenge to the group, while not disparaging some members in favour of others.

Take two characters and place them against an opponent. One will do better then the other, its the nature of the beast.
