Since this is my bright idea...I'll be the first to offer an idea.

Please do not think you are restricted to Marvel SuperHeroes, V&V,
Champians,Heroes Unlimited
Brand-X, whatever... are welcome.

Another thing we might try to get are conversion charts from one game to
another.

Can anyone help with charts?????????

Background/Origin:He was a SWAT sniper who loved to kill. After a near death
experience, he began to study occult lore in hopes of learning how to live 
forever.  He was trying to summon a demon and force it to grant him 
immortaility.  He failed, but his attempts caught the attention of Mephisto 
(The Devil) who appeared to him and offered to grant him immortality in 
exchange for his soul.  Mr. Davis thought he could out smart Mephisto, 
because he would never die, Mephisto could never take his soul.  So he 
accepted the offer.  Mephisto granted it with a twist, he took his soul 
upfront and animated his soulless body.  Demise now roams the world killing 
for fun.

Notes:Killing is the only enjoyment he gets.  Even though he cannot die, 
he still is slammed and stunned by almost everything.  He also feels all 
the pain inflicted on him.  With all that said now the evil judges twist 
-- he is a comic relief character.  See sample adventure.

Sample Adventure: Title: The Senator

Demise found out from his underground contacts that there was a 
$10,000 price on a senator who was coming into the town he was currently 
in.  He desided to accept the job.  

He got dressed in some good clothes, and waited in an alley until a 
unsuspecting reporter, who was going to cover the senator's press 
conferance, walked by.  He grab him and used his decay touch to kill the 
reporter without affecting anything he was carring.  He then gathered up 
his press pass and note pad and walked right into the press conference.  
He was barly able to contain his decay aura, he wanted so badly to just 
start killing and not stop until everone in this room was dead.  But he 
restrained himself.  He pushed his way up to the stage and waited.  When 
the senator came on stage he leaped onto the stage and ran towards the 
senator who was guarded by 5 men. two of the men rushed him and attempted 
to wrestle him to the ground.  But upon contact with Demise they decay 
to death.  Demise laughed and yelled "Your next senator".  With this the 
other 3 guards pulled their guns and shot him about 6 times.  Needless to 
say he went down, hard and was stunned for about a minute.  One of the 
security officers who had just arrived, reached down and checked Demise 
for a pulse, he didn't find one so he said "This ones dead".  Suddenly 
Demise sat up and said "I've been dead for a long time, never stopped me 
before!". 

Demise attempted to grab the officer who just barely got away.  Two of the 
senators guards and 6 of the security officers once again opened fire on 
Demise.  One of the guards assisted the senator to get away.  Demise went 
down again, then got back up and said "Ouch, that hurt!", and he was shot 
down again, and he got up and said "I'm Going to kill you for killing me!", 
and was shot down again.  At this point Demise, realizing that the guards 
had to be low on ammo, made a jump for one of the hanging lights, in hopes 
to swing over to the senator.  He jumped and mised the light and came down 
on top of a section of wooden chairs which splintered and empaled Demise 
about 6 times.  

Kind of upset (and in a whole lot of pain) Demise rushed the guards and at 
the very last minute jmped right over them, only to land, once again, on 
his face.  While the guards were reloading and chasing him, he got up and
ran after the senator.  He was just about caught up with the senator when
the senator ran accross a newly waxed floor.  The senator and his guard got 
across fine, but Demise slipped and fell, sliding towards a vending machine.  
The resulting crash cause the vending machine to fall on top of Demise.  

As Demise pushed the vending machine off of himself he said "I hate when 
you have days like this!!"  He caught up to the senator just as he got in 
the elevator.  As he was about to enter the lone guard shot him in the head, 
spraying the other elevators with Demise's brains (what little he had).  
Demise took the head shot and managed to push the up button next to the 
elevators before he passed out.  

When he woke up an elevator was waiting, he got in and pushed the button 
for the top floor.  When the doors opened the saw the senator and his 
guard running for the staircase to the roof where a helocopter was waiting. 
(The reason he was able to catch-up was that the senators elevator stopped 
twice on the way up to pick up people) 

He ran after the duo and managed to touch the guard as he was helping the 
senator into the helocopter.  He reduced the guard to decaying flesh.  The 
helocopter took off and Demise grabbed on to the skid.  Demise was climbing 
into the cockpit when a SWAT sniper shot off his arm, he slipped but managed 
to keep a death grip (get it?) on the skid until they were out of range of 
the sniper.  The helocopter began to rise and Demise began to wonder how he 
was going to get down.  By this time almost all his wounds had healed but 
his clothing looked like someone had exploded a gernade in it.  He managed 
to pull himself up to the door and pull the door open.  There sat the senator 
with a gun.  WITH A GUN. Demise said "oh no, so close, but yet so far"  The 
senator (who was an ex-rifleman in the army) shot Demise in the chest, 
blowing most of his organs out of his body.  

Demise reached forward and grabbed the gun and the senator shot his hand off.
Demise mental note "Don't grab a pistol from the front".  Demise grabbed the 
bench seat that the senator was on and pulled it out the door.  Tht senator 
,who was sitting on the bench, went with it.  

Next, Demise let go of the helocopter, it was not hard, he barely had a 
hold as it was.  He puts himself in dive posistion and heads for the 
senators's screaming, grabs a hold of him and decays away.  Demise thinks 
"All right, I killed him", he then looks down at the rapidly approching 
pavement an thinks "This is really going to hurt!!!"  

BLAM 

"Yep, I was right"

After scrapping himself off the pavement, but not before being run over by a 
Semi-truck, he headed for home.
