Except he didn't, in the end. At least, he tried not to.

Look at the bully from school, the bully on the shuttle up and the bullies in the School. all were dealt descisive blows that should have seen him punished. In the end, he was punished for saving man kind though

With the guy in the showers, he fought that way because it was the only way he really had a chance.

That, and he was never told about the guys dying.

To be slightly on-topic...

Someone already said Link, and he works better in D&D anyway (Half-Elf Bard/Ranger, going by OoT - he'd just be a Fighter or something in LttP)...

Chewbacca. SURGE troll.

Rincewind. SURGE human with Astral Perception, Aura Reading, and no other magical talent.

I'd say Urza, but that's stupid... (Spirit with materialization, Int - Godlike, Will - Godlike, Cha - 4, cause he was just a jerk sometimes)

Turok, maybe?

Ford Prefect. How high is his Fast Talk, anyway?

Going by how much taller he was than Han, and the fact that human-sized handcuffs couldn't even fit around his wrists, I went with troll. That and looking at the size of Ryyk blades (at least 30 lbs) and how easily Chewbacca was supposed to be able to fight with them, I decided his strength should be as high as possible.

...Bah. :S Fair enough. Maybe he's just a SHORT troll...I think trolls reach 8 feet...Or I might be thinking of wakiyambi.

...!

OOH! Mandatory game-to-SR conversion: The guy from Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy. He's either a psionicist with lots of uberfreaky spells/powers (some of which ain't even in the book), or else he's a physmage.

*insert various Mortal Kombat and Soul Calibur II characters here*

Better fighting game sources are probably Tekken, Ergheiz, and BioFreaks. The last was an early N64 release with freakish characters, but little else to make it worth buying, and I don't even remember any characters from it.

Tekken - Anyone as a physad, really. Yoshimitsu is cybered, though. Tetsujin would have skillwires 6+ and cluster skillsofts that let him mimic anyone's style. Unknown would have some bizarre way of mimicing that effect with magic, just cause cyber seems so out-of-character for her. Gunjack and friends could be complete-conversion borgs. Kuma... is only there cause his opponent is on too many combat drugs.

Others...

Batman is mentioned in every variant of this thread. Skipping that.

Superman - physmage, or physad with "Knack" powers. Increased Attributes on everything to some absurd level. Movement as a metamagic. Spells... Laser for his heat vision, levitate to fly... a single-target ice manip for cold breath... something to let him survive in space... an Armor variant that is always on, can't be seen, and grants hardened armor... Oh yeah, and Edge - can suddenly violate the laws of physics for no good reason by moving very fast.

Captain Picard. Skills: Being Bald (15)

Mortal Kombat - Jaxx has cyberarms. The cyborgs are probably cyberzombies. The rest I don't know enough about to say anything, nor do I really care.

SC2 - Majority belong in D&D. Sophitia is a cleric, Talim is a cleric/monk, Maxi is a monk, Taki is a rogue... And the rest can sort themselves out cause I don't feel like doing it.

There was some movie a long time ago involving giant ticks... some stupid B-movie horror thing. Those things could be stuck in SR. Oh yeah, and the one guy who got turned into a bug? Flaw: Painfully Predictable Death

Oh yeah. The Tick.

Sewer Urchin. He's a physad with below-average skills and attributes all around, but is a high-grade initiate with all of his powers geased with "Must be in the city sewer system."
