After a little contemplation (and a good playtest at Freecon) I think I've finally got a working Derpy! Let me know if any of her abilities need modification (especially if there's any confusion on the language of any of them). Have fun!
Derpy Hooves
Pegasus Pony
Health: 3
Speed: 2
Accuracy: 2
Special Abilities-
I Just Don’t Know What Went Wrong: At a cost of 5 movement points, Derpy jumps on the nearest cloud. Roll 1d6. On a 1-2, the cloud dissipates (nothing happens). On a 3-5, enemies within two squares take a 4d6 energy attack. On a 6, Derpy takes 3d6 damage. May only be used once per turn.
You Okay!?: While in melee range, roll 1d6. Enemy takes an attack equal to the number rolled, to a maximum of 5d6. This counts as an attack.
Paper Bag Wizard: Derpy may attempt to pass through a single wall. Roll 1d6. On a 1-3, Derpy slams into the wall, taking 3d6 damage. On a 4-6, Derpy passes through the wall. May only be used once per turn.
This is the Derpy build I came up with.

Special Abilities-
Careful Derpy: Derpy does a bust 1 (3x3 area) damage is equal to her health. Before damage roll, roll a D6, on a 5 or 6 attack hits Derpy as well and she is grounded until the end of the player’s next turn. (Counts as an attack)
Cameo: Derpy may role a D6, on a 6 Derpy can sacrifice her movement that turn, to move exactly two squares away from any one character on the map.
Fixed by Hasbro: Derpy may reduce her speed by two and add it to her accuracy, this last until the end of the players turn.
She hasn't won a game yet, but she holds her own well enough, and gets a decent amount of frags.
I like "Cameo" a lot, but it seems it could be used to hunt weak prey easily. And I love the title "Fixed by Hasbro," as well as the buff to a low accuracy. I am assuming that being "grounded" in the event that "Careful Derpy" fails is to put her into acid/lava in the event she attempts to perform over such hazards?
ReplyDeleteLoving that we're getting some input from someone we don't personally now ^_^
You'd be surprised how rare it is to have a good importunity to use it, and the odds of rolling a 6 make it hard to exploit. I've only gotten one frag with it, and it left me out in the open for Pinkie Pie to frag me the next turn. Feel free to give it some test plays and see if you think it's unbalanced.
DeleteThe "grounded" from "Careful Derpy" is for that purpose, and to also limit her movement options.
Added a combination of Joseph's build and Zetsubou's build to the Google Doc!
