Valar Morghulis: For one full turn, Nym can "wear the face" of any inactive survivor, using said character's red level powers for the round. (During this time, she uses ONLY the chosen character's powers--none of her own. Her items are still hers to use.)
Does that mean she gets ALL of their Red level skills in exchange for her skills? Or just one in exchange for all her skills? Because if it's for just one, that seems interesting and useful, since you get to be adaptable but have to give up three skills (since the copy ability doesn't do anything unless used) in exchange for a powerful one of your choice. But if it's for all three, you gave up a blue, yellow, and orange skill for three of what tend towards being the most powerful skills in the game.

Also, the orange skill for Mom should technically be "Lock it down" rather than "Lockdown". Also if you're being picky it's "+1 die: combat" rather than "+1 die combat" but that's really splitting hairs.

No, no, no. She would basically just BE that character for a turn (in red level). So 1 blue, 1 yellow, 1 orange, 1 red skill.

And thanks! I'll adjust the Mom errors.

Hmm... would this have limited uses or not? Because if it's limited that could lead to interesting choices, if it isn't then it still seems a bit OP in terms of letting you bring whichever character to bear you want to for any given turn.

I assumed the limit would be that the best characters would already be in play and Nym would only have one or two to choose from...but I guess if we end up making all of these characters and/or play a two-person game, you're probably right. I might have to play a scenario or two to work it out. So far, we usually only get 1 or 2 characters to red and even then, the game is over a turn or two later.

And, hot off the presses...

Character: Nym

Bio: A kid she might be, but she's killed a fat boy or two in her day. Nym watched a fatty take her dad's head off and as far as she knows, her zombie mom is still on the prowl. But there's no time for tears. Nym's got siblings to find and zombies to slaughter. And if she happens across a lemon cake along the way? All the better.

Blue: Slippery (Slippery as an eel.)

Yellow: +1 action

Orange: Ninja (Quiet as a shadow.) OR +1 Die: Melee (Fear cuts deeper than swords.)

Red: Valar Morghulis* OR +1 zone per move (Quick as a snake.) OR +1 combat action (Fear cuts deeper than swords.)


*Valar Morghulis: For one full turn, Nym can "wear the face" of any inactive survivor. During the turn, she plays AS the inactive character, using that character's powers (1 blue, 1 yellow, 1 orange, 1 red of her choice). She does NOT retain her own powers during play. For example, unless the selected character is slippery, she is not. At the end of the turn, she returns to Nym's form.
Very well done!!

I mean any survivor who either 1) isn't being played or 2) was being played, but has already died. (Any character who doesn't have an active role in the game.)

Maybe I should change that wording, too.

I like your Nym character, especially your Valar Morghulis.. very creative and cool. I will have to add her in my next survivor party and she how she fares. Thanks for sharing. rep given :)

Erm... roland, nifty art, but three of your characters (looks like Casey Jones, Jason, and the girl from Kick Ass(?) are HUGE pictures without any skills shown. Is that intentional, or was something lost in the update?

Ray and Nym are the best characters in here IMO, neither are game breakers, but they both introduce new elements to the campaign. Too many people are stacking in over-powered abilities like Is that all you've got? Using the current survivors as a model for baseline is important.

Here are all the ones i found today

I found these on couple different sites thank board game geek. I try to get as many as i can in one place so they would be easy to find. Maybe guillotine will give us a place to post them on their site.
