Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

Spider-Man Inspired Character.

Hey! I have been just working on many other heroes for City Of Titans, but there's been the biggest challenge for me to make one single character is. Spider-Man inspired/expsy character, I just can't find the right idea for a power I can use for my hero. I was trying with a no-theme hero (like he's not an animal themed like spider, insect, etc.) But like it's own theme (Like Superman). But also trying to avoid copying an already existing character Scarlet Striker.

Usually a lot of Spider-Man

Usually a lot of Spider-Man like guys are brawlers with a little something extra. I find it's more of a personality and style than powerset.

Could always make them like, a mage or magic user. The idea of a magic Spider-Man os interesting, to me at least, possibly using various enchanted items to replicate stuff like super strength, durability, webs or other such restraints, wall crawling, ect. Mix that in with some sort of tertiary blasting or other utility magics and there you go. I might use this if you don't, or maybe even if you do.

If you are trying to avoice

If you are trying to avoice teh spider-themed part, what part of Spiderman are you trying to be inspired by? If you take away the spider-theme, there are many hero's that have strength and durability. Beyond those two powers, what would the hero have that Spiderman has that would need an alternative form/source?

Nothing about what I suggested needs to be spider themed at all.

Agreed.

It's really just about a feel of the character.

The simple way I find in describing my own main is Spider-Woman + X-23 with Rachel Grey's Phoenix Force. If I called for a theme, I'd say Fox Spirit.

Totally feel my main would work well with Spider-Man.

Do have your character enjoy being a hero though. One of the most important aspects of being Spider-Man like imo.

Spider-Man is usually pretty much bouncing between "I love being Spider-Man!" And "Being Spider-Man is ruining my life!!!"

The only idea I will take

The only idea I will take from Spider-Man is basically the personality, a costume with a mask with big eyes, that's basically it.

So a spiderman inspired

So a spiderman inspired character that has nothing to do with spiderman? . . . Ok, black panther or daredevil or black cat or . . .

Honestly, any strong, agile, semi durable character fits that mode.

I decided to give him basic power for a starter like generic superhuman strength, speed, agility, durability, stamina, and reflexes. But there are another power I could use.

Then I have to reiterate the question of 'what parts' are inspiring? I have can no suggestions without knowing what I'm 'supporting'. Wise-cracking teen 'controller'? Generic spandex costume has no 'hook', but it's a reasonable choice.

So, no pseudo-science backstory is good. How does this character deal with badguys? Taze-em, Cuff-em, Hang them from a lamp-pole?

Speedy person with wool socks

A speedy person with wool socks, for extra static cling and zappitiness.

Maybe That's the character? Socks McGee? An 'anti-villain'? Wrap up the robbers in a scarf and stick them to walls?

How about someone who can

How about someone who can absorb kinetic energy and then send it out. That could make it a new twist on the whole "kinda strong and kind of flexible" thing, He's kind of strong because he can absorb the punches that he takes and then send that force through a punch, and he's kind of flexible because he can also send absorbed kinetic energy out from his legs.

What if he had nano-bots? He could control the battlefield the same way the main villain of big hero 6 did. Maybe that could work?

OH! So this is a re-definition of Scarlet Striker?

I liked him as 'Teenage Kung Master with Energy Aura and Ziplines'. It might be more fun to have the energy-aura allow him to do things with Momentum, like action-movie wirework. His energy field might give him enhanced movement/strength/resistance. The energy field might be able to extend his reach, as Daredevil does with his Cane. Or, perhaps his energy-field allows him to manipulate rope? That might be the 'Spider' influence.

One of my characters does the 'Aikido Master and Kinetic Energy manipulation', using it to stop bullets and enhance punches, as well as turn a Fall into a Glide.

Be Well!

That's good and all but last thing you want to see is my character becomes Scarlet Striker V.2.

You might want to clarify

You might want to clarify what you are looking for exactly. I'm not really following you with the "Spider-man inspired" but not remotely close...

Are you looking for a power idea on top of the agile striker thing? How about something like Pain Enhancement? Basically, if you get hit, you retaliate with double the force (Rage Mastery?).

The only inspired thing he takes is, youthful guy and the stories, wearing a costume with a mask that has big eyes, and personality.

He can be called Lemur. They have big eyes.

They seem to have interesting personalities too.

Agile, social, and well-known for their exceptional jumping abilities. I think it could be a fun inspiration for a character.

I've stumbled uppon this

I've stumbled uppon this unusual mammal on the internet, never seen that before. It's called a tenrec, it's close to a shrew or a hedgehog. Maybe you'll find it interesting for your design.
