smnolimits42 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 So I was watching Batman: The Animated Series, and one of his enemies was named Clay Face. So I was thinking of Master of Disguise, but I'm not sure of the name. Secondly I'm thinking of Stone Armor/Thorns Tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been told the 1966 TV show Batman wanted to do Clayface, but obviously that presented some practical effects challenges for their day. So they opted to create a master of disguise they called False Face. While I'm sure that name will not pass the game rules, perhaps it will serve as inspiration. As to mythology, the Greek sea deity Proteus is known for mutability. and his name is used for concepts and functions involving change. I believe Marvel has locked down the name using a character, and even our game has Protean, a shape shifter. But again, perhaps it will serve as inspiration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proteus was a mutant antagonist in X-Men during the award winning Chris Claremont/John Byrne era who was able to alter reality. So that's probably gonna fall by the wayside fairly quickly. You could do something based around Selkies, which are aquatic (water powers) akin to merfolk who can change shape, as suggestion. There are plenty of other options but that one caught my imagination There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.

SeraphimKensai Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Stone/spines tank = Rocky Prick. Costume is a boxer that looks like Sylvester Stallone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BastionWalls Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 If you are leaning into the stone powers, perhaps Mud Mask. A gender swapped Clayface with an appropriately colored Carnival mask? Clayface, at least in some of his iterations, was an actor, so following that line you could do something with the Comedy/Tragedy masks known as Thalia and Melpomene or Sock and Buskin. Lon Chaney was known as "The Man of a Thousand Faces". Perhaps Milliface? Could work well if you use your costume slots for different genders, sizes, ages.

If you're going to be going with a name derived from the character's powers, then look at translations of 'Stone Thorns' or 'Stone Spikes' into other languages -- 'Steindornen' and 'Steinspitze' in German, 'Epines Pierre' and 'Pointes Pierre' in French, 'Klipdorings' and 'Klipspikes' in Afrikaans, 'Steinthyrmir' and 'Steindoppar' in Icelandic, and many others -- virtually none of which have any significant chance of already being taken, and which give you the opportunity to come up with an interesting backstory to explain why they're in Paragon City with that name.

You can't copyright the name of mythological characters. 1 If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore. (It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications) Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case. But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Triumphant Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Quote Secondly I'm thinking of Stone Armor/Thorns Tank. For the two powersets you describe... Stalagmite? Piton? Caltrop? Cragspike? Razorpeak? For a face/form-shifter... Transmorpho? Everyman? Mastermorph? Identimage? Photobomb? The Simulacrum? I'll try to think of some more. That's a challenging combo to theme-up, as it were.
