Ed's Notes: *sigh* ANOTHER character with a weapon, and one with an EV less than their Str no less, and NO WEAPONRY SKILL! So why would it give up an EV Column using the sword, if its UNSKILLED USE would also cost it a +2 CS OV/RV Penalty as well?! Also left out of the Apokolips Sourcebook entry is the last of attributes, Alter Ego, Motivation, Occupation and Wealth. Now... Most of those last four are not really that important, I assume that, as a Gadget, it has no Hero Points, and just gave him the Motivation Nihilist.)
(And, yes, its pronouns are "it" because it is a Gadget, rather than a biological being!)
Brimstone is more of a plot device than a character.
ReplyDeleteAgreed that he's not much of a "Character." (Certainly wouldn't even be a PC! lol) Could you elaborate a bit on why you mean by "plot device" though? DO you mean "obstacle to overcome?" Or something else?
DeleteHe's there to move the story along, and not much more. As far as his stats go, it all depends on what the writers want him to do. I Legends he's depicted as threat so dire, the Justice League and Suicide Squad are thrown at him, and Block Buster gets taken out.
