City of Heroes isn't an HU supplement, it's a comic book styled MMORPG.

Hmm, still a tough a choice.

Hmmm... since CoH isn't owned by Palladium Books, and therefore any unlicensed attempt to put out a sourcebook for HU based on it would be an infringement upon CoH's copyrights, it might be an easier choice than you think...

Not to fear - between work, revelry and City of Heroes, I am finally putting together my website. And I'll include some new updated stats here and there.

Which reminds me... I need to get back to work coloring those illustrations. My rendering of Soundwave should look seven different shades of awesome if I ever get done with it.

Hey Cardiac, anything new to report on the revisions of Villians? Its
been a while.

Starting monday the 12th I have a week off so expect some new conversions. I apologize for the delay but my job requires me to pull some insane shifts (damn surveillance....). Very very soon I promise!

Nothing worst then a job that gets in the way of spending
quality time in front of a computer monitor.

Hey people, I am back.
Sorry the site VU2 site died. I had lost my previous job and could no longer afford my internet access. And unfortunately, my ISP was also my site host. But fear not, I shall soon ressurect the VU2 site and "NMI's Megaversal Database".

Good luck, NMI.

Luck has ... errr had nothing to do with it.

Back in the their full glory... The Cast of Friends... err Villains Unlimited

Well you were also looking for a ride to Gen Con so it was good luck all around.

Not that I want this shut down or anything, far from it but how does this not violate Palladium's copyright?

Becuase I asked permission about it.

The way Palladium guards it copyrights I'm surprised they let you.

As I understood it (I may be wrong) Cardiac's revisions were considered derivative works rather than reprints of the official copyrighted material.

.....and more stats are on the way...got some time off coming up.

As everyone else has said, awesome work, Cardiac. I'm really looking forward to the Crime Masters!

Hello what? What is the Crime Masters?

Cardiac I would also submit your VU2 to the Rifter as a paralell world version. Change the names and keep what you have created. Players will like it. Hey I do.

a super villan group originally intrduced in the original HU book. and updated in HU revised
and i must say i would be interested in seeing some one elses ideas of what they would be like in HU2.

Oh yeah, the guys that held up the mall... right? I remember doing that adventure. They got away in my episode.

Hey don't forget Gold Falcon and Brain Storm. Although Brain Storm
was a little tougher when Hydrokinesis could actual do something
other then boil water to cook with.

Crime Masters. That was Shadow Master, Task Master, and Power Master right? Yeah, they and the goofy villain from the other adventure, I'd like to see converted.

hey cardiac

i know your prolly busy converting but how about the masters of speed man! im dying to see how you convert them.

..Bringing this thread back into the current fold, as it's still a good topic, and Cardiac is da-Man.

-Mike >8]

I just got a copy of Justice machine, I dare say, I like it's format alot more then Villains unlimited. they actually feel like comic book villains, where as those in VU all feel like science experiments gone wrong

He has over half-a-million in the bank as his personal savings and retirement fund which he will not touch, and several thousand in cash on him at all times (not including the jewlery he is probably wearing).

His favorite is a brand-new fully loaded Jaguar he received as a gift from Jackhammer. But he can get his hands on almost any common or not-so-common vehicle easily. Even the rare ones will take a bit of time.

I'm pretty sure the warm up round is over. So let's see the Dark Tribunal,
Masters of Speed, and the new and "improve" Sentinels of
Liberty and Justice. I can't wait (rub hands).

Unusual Physical Characteristics/Side Effects: Chemical Resistance.
Major Super Abilities: None
Minor Super Abilities: Extraordinary Spd, Extraordinary PP, Heightened Sense of Smell, Heightened Sense of Hearing, Super-Vision Nightvision

Power Notes - Speed Burst: Like her namesake animal, she is only capable of short bursts at her top speed of 340mph – no longer than 1 minute. Normally she travels at her energy-conserving “cruising speed” of 170mph – exactly one-half of her max burst speed. She can suddenly accelerate from her cruising speed to her maximum speed as often as every 2 minutes. However, this ability to suddenly and almost instantaneously accelerate has given her some special bonuses; +2 to strike/parry/dodge/auto-dodge/roll, but is -2 to pull punch. These bonuses are added to her normal bonuses only when she zips off from a standing start at max speed and last only for the first round of combat. She also gets a permanent +2 bonus to initiative.

Exceptional sense of Smell (can recognize/identify specific odours 94%, recognize chemicals by scent 74%, recognize individuals by scent alone 68%, and track by scent 58%. Difficult to completely surprise her, especially if she is downwind). Her speed burst/acceleration ability has also made her twice as resistant against the effects of inertia/G-forces as a normal human. She is also resistant to the effects of foreign chemicals – half effect (even applies to beneficial drugs).

Combat Training: Hand to Hand: Martial Arts
Attacks: 7
Combat Bonuses: +15 Initiative, +7 Strike, +11 Automatic Parry, +16 Dodge, +11 Automatic Dodge, +10 Roll with Punch/Fall/Impact, +5 Pull Punch, +0 Damage, +2 Disarm.

Her trademark cheetah-print costume has a radio transceiver built into it – 50 mile range. It can also be set to emit a homing signal. It also has built-in concealed armor and padding – AR 10, SDC 50 (this is more to protect her from collisions and high-speed slides than actual combat).

Weakness - Lack of fine control: Fullbore is unable to make sharp turns easily or stop quickly. In order to make a sharp course change at speeds over 100mph, he must bounce off of objects, ricocheting himself in a different direction. To stop quickly, he must run into a solid object or person. His radar sense helps to perform the ricochets, and if that sense is fouled, he cannot effectively change course at high speeds (he either crashes into the object or bounces off, most likely in an unintended direction). While making high-speed attacks, his strike bonus is halved, unless he wears his specially designed armor.

Natural Radar Sense - 1800ft (Interpret Shapes 80%, Estimate Distance 84%, Estimate Direction 84%, Estimate Speed 64%, Estimate Exact Location 74%). Suffers no penalies while blinded.

Magic and Psionics have full effect). SDC of body regenerates at a rate of 4D6 per 10 minutes. Can hold his breath and survive without sustenance for 4 times longer than normal. Recovers from physically debilitating spells, powers, drugs, disease, etc, twice as fast as normal (half duration). Considered to be a Supernatural Being.

If the Radar sense is somehow negated, subtract 4 from initiative, 1 attack, and 2 from strike/parry/dodge/auto dodge bonuses. While making high-speed attacks, his strike bonus is halved, unless he is wearing his special armor.

Saving Throws: +2 vs Possession/Horror Factor, 55% Charm/Impress, +26% vs Coma/Death, +2 vs Poison/Disease/Pain, +3 vs Magic.

Other Combat Info: Auto knockout/stun – 20. Critical Strike – 18-20. Entangle. Holds (all). Pin/Incapacitate – 18-20. Paired Weapons.

Hand to Hand Damage:
Restrained Punch – 1D6+4. Karate Punch – 4D6+4. Power Punch (2A) – 8D6+4. Body Block/Tackle – 2D6+4 + knockdown. Karate Kick – 4D6+4. Crescent Kick – 4D8+8. Roundhouse Kick - 6D8+4. Wheel Kick – 4D8+4. Tripping Leg Hook – knockdown. Jump Kick – 12D8+4. Flying Jump Kick – 8D8+4. Crush/Squeeze – 2D6+4. Leap Attack – x2 normal damage.

Ricochet Attack: Counts as 2 attacks, +1 per target/ricochet (so if Fullbore wants to hit 4 separate targets, it would cost him 6 attacks). Roll to strike each intended target. If struck, that particular target takes normal Body Block/Tackle damage (don’t forget the damage bonus added for high speed), and may be knocked down. If the target is knocked down they may also be dazed (70% chance) for 1D4 melees (losing initiative and -3 to strike/parry/dodge).
If Fullbore misses at any point, this may disrupt the entire attack, unless there is something in his path to deflect himself, in which case he may be able to continue his ricochet attack if the angle is right (GM’s discretion). If there is no such obstacle, Fullbore loses the appropriate number of attacks (2+number of previous strike attempts/ricochets) and will have to slow down, turn around, and try again.

Money: Has amassed a fortune of several million – lets Hellbent take care of the investments and finances.

Weapons: Prefers to use his super-abilities.

Equipment: Seldom uses any, but has access to a wide variety of items if necessary (or can purchase it/steal it easily). His costume has a radio transceiver built into the helmet – 50 mile range, which can be set to emit a homing signal. Passive nightsight optics are built into the helmet as well – 500ft range. His outfit also consists of upper-body hard armor and padding designed to withstand high-speed collisions – AR 12, SDC 120 (protects his head, neck, shoulders and upper torso, and gauntlets protect his forearms/wrists). This armor has aerodynamic contours and stabilizer fins on the shoulders and helmet, which help him turn and make slight course corrections while running at high speed and while performing high-speed attacks (negates his strike penalty for making such attacks).

Vehicles: Besides the MoS mobile base, he rarely uses any, preferring to use his own powers.

Cardiac, you are the man! Fullbore a mega-villian!!!
And look he doesn't take damage when he crashes into
people. Keep'em coming.

Well, he seemed like the most "Tankish" of the MoS, and the Mega Template didn't really add much to him (besides a lot more SDC), so I decided to make him the designated "damage sponge" of the MoS. I might release a non-mega version of him for those who don't think he qualifies as a mega (I'm kind of split on the issue).

Even non-mega, he is still powerful, when you consider his powers and combat bonuses.

Oh - and the whole "he takes damage from impacts" bit was kind of lame in the old write-up - so I changed it. Now the armor actually has a specified purpose.

FULLBORE (Non-Mega version)

Real Name: Harry Coyle
Aliases: Fullbore
Group Affiliation: The Masters of Speed.
Occupation: Professional super-criminal, former Sargeant in the Canadian military.

Alignment: Aberrant
Power Category: Experiment
Experience Level: 8th
Hit Points: 194 S.D.C.: 358
P.P.E.: 26
Attributes: IQ 15, ME 9, MA 19, PS 19, PP 12, PE 18, PB 11, Spd 557 (380mph).
Age: 32 Sex: Male Height: 5ft. 10in. Weight: 195 lbs.

Unusual Physical Characteristics/Side Effects: Odd skin texture – rubbery.
Major Super Abilities: Invulnerability
Minor Super Abilities: Extraordinary Spd, Radar.

Power Note - Lack of fine control: Fullbore is unable to make sharp turns easily or stop quickly. In order to make a sharp course change at speeds over 100mph, he must bounce off of objects, ricocheting himself in a different direction. To stop quickly, he must run into a solid object or person. His radar sense helps to perform the ricochets, and if that sense is fouled, he cannot effectively change course at high speeds (he either crashes into the object or bounces off, most likely in an unintended direction). While making high-speed attacks, his strike bonus is halved, unless he wears his specially designed armor.

Natural Abilities: Superhuman Strength. Can run at incredible speeds (up to 380mph). Natural Radar Sense - 1200ft (Interpret Shapes 80%, Estimate Distance 84%, Estimate Direction 84%, Estimate Speed 64%, Estimate Exact Location 74%). Suffers no penalies while blinded. Immune to most forms of attack (Disease and Radiation have half effect, Poisins/Toxins have 1/4 effect, and cannot kill the character. Supernatural Strength does half damage. Magic and Psionics have full effect). SDC of body regenerates at a rate of 4D6 per 10 minutes. Can hold his breath and survive without sustenance for 4 times longer than normal.

Combat Training: Hand to Hand: Expert
Attacks: 8
Combat Bonuses: +11 Initiative, +6 Strike, +11 Automatic Parry, +14 Dodge, +4 Automatic Dodge, +10 Roll with Punch/Fall/Impact, +5 Pull Punch, +4 Damage, +4 Disarm.

While making high-speed attacks, his strike bonus is halved, unless he is wearing his special armor.

I suprised you choose Fullbore to be the Mega and not Hellbent. Then
again how scarier can you make a guy with Bio-ghost and Sonic Speed
who in a sneak way has Superhuman PS (love the stocky rule which
most people are unaware of).

Yeah, Fullbore really needs the boost a lot more than Hellbent. I'm waiting for my favorite MoS to be updated...the always fun Whirligig.

WHIPLASH

Real Name: Jackson Sieber
Aliases: Jack Sabre, Jacko, and Whiplash, among others.
Group Affiliation: The Masters of Speed.
Occupation: Professional super-criminal.

Alignment: Diabolic
Power Category: Mutant
Experience Level: 6th
Hit Points: 42 S.D.C.: 130
P.P.E.: 21
Attributes: IQ 11, ME 8, MA 8, PS 24, PP 15, PE 14, PB 10, Spd 500 (340mph).
Age: 26 Sex: Male Height: 6ft. 2in. Weight: 210 lbs.

Unusual Physical Characteristics/Side Effects: Ambidexterous
Major Super Abilities: None.
Minor Super Abilities: Extraordinary Speed, Adhesion, Impact Resistance, Super-vision – Advanced Sight.

Power Note – Enhanced Maneuverability: Due to his fine control over his adhesion power, he possesses an amazing degree of maneuverability even while running at hundreds of miles per hour. This gives him the following bonuses; +2 to Initiative, strike, parry and dodge, and all his dodge rolls are considered to be an automatic dodge.

Natural Abilities: Can run at incredible speeds (up to 340 mph), and can turn/stop instantly. His vision is far superior, enabling him to recognize a face 6 miles distant. Is extremely resistant to physical (kinetic) attack - the first 20 points of physical damage from an attack is ignored, and any additional damage is halved. Can stick to surfaces and can climb/run on even sheer vertical surfaces.

Combat Training: Hand to Hand: Assassin
Attacks: 9
Combat Bonuses: +8 Initiative, +6 Strike, +12 Automatic Parry, +14 Automatic Dodge, +10 Roll with Punch/Fall/Impact, +7 Pull Punch, +13 Damage, +3 Disarm.

Combat Note: +4 to damage per every 20mph of running speed. The best a standing-still punch or kick can do is +8 (40 mph). If his Adhesion ability is somehow negated, subtract his “Enhanced Maneuverability” bonuses, his Auto Dodge becomes his regular Dodge bonus, and he gains an Auto Dodge of +2.

Saving Throws: None

Other Combat Info: Auto knockout/stun – 20. Critical Strike – 20. Entangle. Holds (all). Pin/Incapacitate - 18-20. Paired Weapons.

Hand to Hand Damage:
Punch – 1D4+13. Power Punch (2A) – 2D4+13. Body Block/Tackle – 1D4+13 + knockdown. Kick – 2D4+13. Crush/Squeeze – 1D4+13. Body Throw/Flip – 1D6+16 + knockdown.

Special Attacks:
1) Whiplash: Whiplash grabs a person while travelling at high speed and, while still holding on to them, stops abruptly. Roll a percentile dice and consult the following table to see what happens. This costs whiplash 7 attacks.
01-20% - The sudden deceleration snaps the neck of the victim, doing Whiplash’s speed bonus damage (4 per 20mph) directly to the victim’s HP, most likely killing or crippling them. Roll vs Coma/Death if applicable.
31-60% - Severe whiplash or concussion. The victim takes 4D6 damage to both HP and SDC (if applicable) and receives a neck and head injury that causes chronic neck pain, stiffness, and headaches for 2D4x10 days. During this period, the victim has no initiative and all of their combat bonuses, skill proficiencies and speed are halved. Multiple whiplashes simply inflict more damage.
61-90% - Whiplash or concussion. The victim takes 2D6 damage to both HP and SDC (if applicable) and receives a neck and head injury that causes chronic neck pain, stiffness, and headaches for 6D6 days. During this period, the victim is –4 on all combat rolls, and Spd is reduced by half. Multiple whiplashes simply inflict more damage.
91-00% - The victim is relatively unharmed (2D4 damage and a 50% chance to be dazed/stunned for 1D4 melees (losing initiative and -3 to strike/parry/dodge).

Note: The following powers add a 5% bonus to the roll (all bonuses are cumulative); Extraordinary PS, Extraordinary PE, Heavyweight, Increased Durability, Indestructible Bones, Superhuman PS, Supernatural PS or any flight power. Invulnerable characters, heroes with Stretching/Elasticity, other super-speedsters (Extraordinary Speed, Sonic Speed) or who are in forms that have no neck or vertebrae are immune as well (such as many of the APS powers). Characters wearing special armor/equipment designed to prevent neck injury get a 15% bonus.

2) Short Whip: Whiplash grabs a person while travelling at high speed and whips them into the ground or a solid object using a judo-style throwing motion. Does appropriate damage for a Body Throw/Flip (including the damage bonus for high speed). This also has a 01-30% chance of causing whiplash (or a concussion) – a neck and head injury that causes chronic neck pain, stiffness, and headaches for 3D6 days. During this period, the victim is –2 on all combat rolls, and Spd is reduced by half. Multiple whiplashes simply inflict more damage. This costs Whiplash 3 attacks.

3) Forward Crunch: Whiplash grabs a victim, runs with them for a short distance. He then stops instantly, releasing the victim and letting their momentum carry them into an object. This attack inflicts 1D6+1 damage per 20mph of speed (so at 100mph the victim takes 5D6+5 damage). The damage is halved if the victim does not hit an obstacle and simply slides along the ground. The victim may also be dazed (70% chance) for 1D4 melees (losing initiative and -3 to strike/parry/dodge). This costs whiplash 4 attacks.

4) Hook and Release: Whiplash grabs an opponent, runs up the side of a large building or other tall structure, and simply releases the victim, letting them fall. The victim may also be dazed (70% chance) for 1D4 melees (losing initiative and -3 to strike/parry/dodge). This typically costs Whiplash 4 attacks (but could cost more or less depending on the height travelled).

Secondary Skills: Radio Basic, Optic Systems, Read Sensory Equipment, Basic Electronics, Automotive Mechanics, Athletics, Pilot Truck, Land Navigation, Find Contraband, Computer Operation, WP Rifle, WP Auto-Pistol, WP Submchinegun, WP Knife.

Money: Has amassed a fortune of several million – lets Hellbent (grudgingly and with much criticism) take care of the investments and finances.

Weapons: Doesn’t feel the need to use any – he is a weapon.

Equipment: Seldom uses any, but has access to a wide variety of items if necessary (or can purchase it/steal it easily). His costume has a radio transceiver built into the helmet – 50 mile range, which can be set to emit a homing signal. Passive nightsight optics are built into the helmet as well – 500ft range. His outfit also consists of full-body concealed armor/padding (to protect from collisions and slides) and upper-body hard armor/padding (covering his head, neck, shoulders and upper torso) designed to protect his head, neck and upper spine from any strain/damage due to collisions and his penchant for sudden stops – AR 13, SDC 150

Vehicles: Besides the MoS mobile base, he rarely uses any, preferring to use his own powers.

My current gaming group has never encountered the original crime masters.. can't wait to see them converted.. stunning work Cardiac, absolutely brilliant.

You know, I never would have figured Fullbore as a Mega-Villain... until I saw your version. I think Mega status fits him perfectly.

Whiplash-Hook and Release. Evil very evil.
And we like evil.

Evil is fun. Still waiting for Whirligig.

Whirligig would be even nastier if he was miscreant and/or diabolic.
and if he had Body Weapons. Spin and have bladded arms.
Have to chance his name to Human Blender though.

He'd be nastier, sure... but then he wouldn't be Whirligig.

One thing I've particularly liked about Cardiac's revisions is how even when characters become much more powerful they still remain true to their original 'spirit' or 'feel.'

Quisinart is much better!
