Re: Jab’s Builds (The Zodiac Cartel! Scorpio! Virgo! Taurus!)

Post by Davies »

What killed me, reading about Taurus for the first time, was that the guy was apparently advised by his astrologer to form the Zodiac. What kind of astrologer gives advice as specific as that, and who was this person? Why aren't they the supervillain?

Complications:

Vulnerable (Magnetic Attacks)- As LMDs, the Zodiac are made of metal, and are prone to magnetic assault.
Weakness (Outside Their Dimension)- The LMDs will shut down without access to Zodiacal Energy from our dimension- inter-dimensional travel will shut most of them down.
Responsibility (Zodiac Nature)- The LMD Zodiacs were extremely focused onto their particular sign's habits and nature. This made Taurus very brutish and aggressive.

Total: Abilities: 18 / Skills: 6--3 / Advantages: 11 / Powers: 54 / Defenses: 8 (94)

-The LMD Taurus is another generic member of the team, being a big tough guy and little else. He was created to fight the Defenders, but easily lost to the Hulk. Later, he was hired to kill the original Taurus, but failed when the villain hired Iron Man himself to protect him. Iron Man (James Rhodes) went blow-for-blow with Taurus, but was unable to stop it- finally, he turned his Uni-Beam on the LMD, blowing it up.

-This Taurus is a simple powerhouse, but sports powerful "Horn Cables" that can blast.

-The character was redesigned in West Coast Avengers into the body of a black woman by Scorpio, and killed the original Zodiac Cartel, then fought the West Coast Avengers- Taurus hit Hawkeye and threw off his aim, resulting in the Avenger killing Sagittarius. This Taurus was deactivated with the others in the Ankh Dimension.

-The character was now a generic brick, dropping the blasts. This makes her a MUCH cheaper build, though still a reasonable PL 8 backgrounder.

-Taurus in the "Alpha Flight" Zodiac team was pretty much like the three preceding him- a big, dumb thing that charged everyone aggressively. He appears HUGE in some pictures, but Hulk-sized in others, but I figure his base stats are gonna be the same- he's a very strong guy with low accuracy, making him a bad PL 7.5 Powerhouse.

Cancer (Astrological Sign)

Post by Jabroniville »

"Huh-huh... Sixty-nine."

CANCER
Stereotypes:
Homey, Sensitive, Moody, Defensive, Protective, Slacker, Manipulative

-As a crab, Cancer is a pretty easy super-villain design to make- most of these guys just have pincers. It's an oddly under-utilized thing in comic books, actually- possibly because pincers are kinda/sorta hard to draw from multiple angles.

Even by the standards of crappy, half-assed costume designs, this one sucks. Yet he's NOT EVEN THE WORST ONE ON THE TEAM.

-Holy crap, this guy MUST be bad-ass! He killed Captain Mar-Vell! Oh wait, wrong Cancer...

-Another sucky guy, but he's got a unique gimmick with those Pincers; he can grapple, tear stuff, strike and junk with them, giving him a few Advantages & Boosts limited to his costume. It's nothing HUGE, but it's something. Even so, he's PL 6- the level of losers like Boomslang. I mean, he's not shown doing anything in battle but slugging Rick Jones once, and losing to the Vision!

-The LMD Cancer is a much more powerful crab-like robot, with a metal carapace, super-strength, the works. He's still a low-level villain, but a tougher one than his level implies. In his first appearance, he was smashed in battle by the Hulk.

-When Scorpio built another Cancer LMD, he made this one with water cannons. He attacked the West Coast Avengers, but shorted out when the Wasp's bio-electric stings interacted with his water vents. So he's a PL 7 super-durable Blaster- only marginably better than his allies.

-Rebuilt a SECOND time by Scorpio, Cancer shows up with the generic powers of the original LMD.The final one seen actually RAN from the West Coast Avengers during a fight because he got spooked when Sagittarius "died". These guys do NOT have good Will Saves.

-The fifth (!) Cancer is an Animal-Man like all of his buddies- this makes him one of very few Crab People in comics, and he actually has a pretty good look about him. Didn't save him from getting offed casually by Weapon-X, however.

Capricorn (Astrological Symbol)

Post by Jabroniville »

CAPRICORN
Stereotypes:
Ambitious, Dominating, Workaholic, Pessimistic, Party Animal, Slut

-Capricorns are the uber-forgettable ultra-losers of the Zodiac Cartel. The original may be the single most poorly-designed character in comic book history, and the other three are just "Goats". The main issue here is that the Zodiac features TWO GOATS, even though there's only twelve. Like seriously, could they not have chosen a Wolf or a Spider or something for one of them? Like, every formation of the Cartel now has to have two goat-guys on it, and Aries is a much bigger name, as the original led the Cartel at one point.

-DEAR GOD, that costume! I mean, this team has some awful throwaway characters in some of comics' worst gear (at least two guys are just in "furry Halloween costumes", for example), but THIS GUY? He's also an easy entry into a Worst Super-Costume in History contest, with his green skin, yellow shirt/skirt combo, mixed with elf-boots and a pointy red mask. And when you stand out as stupid on THIS team, that's really saying something.

-Another one-noter, Capricorn was goat-themed like Aries is (apparently our Zodiac is much shorter on concepts than the Chinese one...), but his mask allowed him to ensnare people at range. How this was done, and why nobody else got one, was not quite explained, since everyone else got stuck with lame fursuits, but whatever. Capricorn briefly led a squad to capture Daredevil, Madame Masque & Iron Man in an Iron Man arc, but he was undone once the heroes broke free- his attempt to use a "karate blow" to the forehead to blind Daredevil was ineffective, shocking him. DD took advantage of his surprise to knock him out with a counterattack. He was finally killed with the rest of the original Zodiac Cartel in West Coast Avengers.

-Capricorn's a minor-league guy with a half-decent Snare on his mask. But it's brutally limited to a few guys at a time, making him a much better temporary-assist type of guy.

Well.. kinda? ;)

Aries is a ram

Capricorn is a fish goat thing

Kinda like saying that crabs and fish are the same thing?

But that does bring up how do two fish balance against a goat fish thing.

Yeah, the ancients were weird.

-The LMD Capricorn was a little weirder- initially a male character, he died on the slab from being activated too soon, and was not a part of the Defenders story. A proper one was formed and joined Quicksilver's attack on the Avengers, but was remade by the Zodiac Key into a female character in the very next appearance. This character was just a hard-hitting robot.
