Ever since I saw the quickdraw hideaway limb, I"ve been wanting to make Tracer from overwatch. Especially seeing there's the speed suspension legs that can increase base speed by 30. Make her an operative which can also increase speed by 30. meaning that with light armor she'd have a speed of 90 ft which i think is awesome. I just need the free time to try to put her together. Probably have the Ace Pilot theme since Tracer was a test pilot before she became a hero.

I'm surprised no one thought to mention a Human Bounty Hunter Soldier who uses powered armor with several different integrated weapon systems like a zero gun, laser and arc guns, who dedicates herself to killing space pirates and plays the cello quite well and is often mistaken for a man because she's rarely seen outside her powered armor.

I thought this was going in an entirely different direction that was going to end with. . .

A flamethrower and a missile system, who specializes in killing Solarians.

Are we thinking about the same person here? I'm confused.

Gist of the matter is that you went for Samus Aran while Vamp thought you were going for Boba/Jango Fett (which is what he ended up describing with the Solarian/Jedi hunting)

Ah, I see. That's what threw me off (I associate Jedi more with Mystics as a class).

We clearly also need a small-sized human mercenary envoy, who has absolute minimum in constitution (taking all three flaws in fact) and max possible points in charisma and intelligence. Skills include computers, engineering (particularly drains), physical science (particularly meteorology) and bluff. So much bluff and diplomacy. Despite having no points or talents related to medicine, he gains several prosthesis as he levels, inlcluding a custom built skeleton that offsets some of his early fragility. Takes a lot to piss him off, but if you manage it, he will convince you to give up everything you own and you will spend the next year trying to figure out why you agreed.

His wife is a scholar (life science: botany) xenodruid mystic, and is much smarter than you. Do not piss off his wife. She stopped a war once by shouting at it until it went away.

His mom is a spacefarer envoy that is enormously knowledgeable about almost everything except culture. Her intellect and wisdom are incredibly high. Do not piss off his mom. She will collect your mother f**king head.

His father was a icon soldier that dumped a lot of points into picking up the culture skill. He ran the entire world at one point. Sadly, a great many people pissed off his dad. That pissed off his mom, and did not end well.

His twin (sort of) brother is a small outlaw soldier that is the single deadliest person in this family. Also takes after thier mom in personality despite not meeeting her until he was twenty. Feel free to piss him off, we could use the amusement.

His best friend and cousin is a shockingly good-looking themeless (actually, an adhoc diplomat theme) soldier who is only considered dim because he hangs out with our protagonist. He's actually fairly clever and absolutely loyal. You can piss him off, if you must, but that will make him sad. And that will piss everyone else off.

His aunt (and mom of the cousin) is an icon envoy that has seen sh-t and done sh-t and will take none of yours. If you piss HER off, the consequences are less deadly than for the rest, but I would advise moving planets. She in many ways ran the world too, at one point.

Finally, his foster brother is the current ruler of the world, and an icon operative. He should have been a mercenary soldier, but was raised by the protagonist's parents, who figured it would be better to have someone competent around. Fairhanded, even temptered, and shows few emotions, but that is not to say he is easy-going. He is merely very quiet. People that piss him off tend to have short prison sentences and long executions.

Hmmm, we also need a Human Engineer with a decent intelligence, but who also has absolutely no motivation whatsoever and is a complete slob. His bunkmate, also an engineer, is a super by-the-book uptight jerkwad who is somehow even less intelligent and is only the superior of the first guy because he managed to pass his test by complete accident.

They could be joined by a servile android envoy who seems to know just about everything from scientific knowledge, and to round it out, a catfolk.

Remember-It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere, and we're all alone, more or less.

Luke Skywalker.

Nerp.


Brad Pitt.

Eh, to be fair, this is a rather cleverly smokescreened expy of a character that appears rarely in a kid's cartoon show.

I guess Ralph would be a half-orc armor storm soldier? (That's the only way I know of to do punchy damage, since he's obviously not vesk.) Surprisingly, I think Felix would be an human Icon envoy with Engineering Adept. He's obviously charismatic, and he's good at talking to people at least. Plus he has the culture skill because he speaks 'Q*bert-ese.'

For Vanellope, I chose technomancer because her glitching does stuff like dimension door and reveals

Spoiler:
Turbo for who he really is.
