Rule 34

Rule 34 of the internet states 'If it exists, there is porn of it.' ;D Being too curious for my own good, I have found a short list of the most common examples of Rule 34: Furry Fandom, Weight Gain, Overeating or Stuffing, Inflation, Clones. I will now attempt to make a valid and relatively innocuous superhero group, while making sure that at least one of these 'Top Five' gets a superhero that could be used as an idol for 'fans' of that type.

Rule 34

For the furry fandom, foxes seem to be a prodigious choice, with a lot of the hallmarks of a good animal-totem superhero. So a fox totem, then. But what name shall I give our intrepid fox? Well, 'The Fox' is a good solid pulp-fiction turned four-colour name.
How about some challenges? The Fox is going to have to do without a human form (that would sort of spoil the point). So how about 'Looks Nonhuman' equal to Beast, at -4. We needn't give him anything else yet.
Intelligence should be reasonable, as the saying goes 'as cunning as a fox'. Maybe 6 with energy based on Int? Strength needn't be fantastic, human maximum seems fine. Same with agility, now that I come to think about it. Durability and speed, however, make me think of the constant foxhunts/farmers chasing after foxes, etc, and I want my Fox to be able to turn the tables. So how about 4 in each? So attributes are a total of 18 points.
For modifiers, I like the idea that the Fox is a magical creature turned superhero, so I'll give him self-contained being and immortal. He needs some defence but having sharp reflexes seems more suitable than being tough or wearing armour, so Reflexive Dodge 4 seems like enough. Foxes aren't particularly well-known for having claws, so I'll opt out (too 'Beast' for me). Modifiers are a total of 12 points.
Actions don't seem like there should be many. He really only needs some acrobatics and close combat. Close combat gets a bonus from a stat and since I have paid for a 6 Int, why not get some use out of it? Close combat 5 (Int bonus or weapon modifier) sounds perfect and it would make the character generally better at fighting without a weapon, which makes sense for a fox. Acrobatics 3 (Agility bonus) is enough for me. It's the most I can regenerate per turn anyway, so that wouldn't leave The Fox out of breath at all after running across the city.
That leaves 10 points unspent. What do you recommend?

Social Skills are a must (and foxes are thought of as cunning so that should be fairly high.)
Animal Senses (somewhere between 3 and 5 maybe) seems necessary. Keep in mind the -1 discount to reflexive dodge. Maybe to fit the mystical stuff, either some low-level magic, and/or Enhanced Vision (Auras.)
This is a rather hilarious idea (but keep it clean, no pics or anything please.)
If you're looking for a body-inflationist type idea, look at Fatty McGee in the Peacesavers game.

So maybe Social Skills 6 for 4 points. How much does Animal Senses cost? I don't have my book with me. I'll say for now about 2 points in that. Then Enhanced Sense: Aura-vision. And Mastery Of Magic 2?

Gonna go ahead and say that, if you're making characters based on strange internet-porn, somebody needs a tentacle attack.

I'd have to agree about the tentacle attacks. There's some odd stuff out there on the internet, but that one variety is the one that most readily comes to mind.

I'm thinking of making the tentacle's into a psuedo-bad-guy. More like a contact in the underworld than an archnemesis.

Ha, excellent. I would never have thought of a Rule 34 superteam, but I'm glad you did. The Fox looks pretty good, too.

First, make sure it's either a .gif, .jpg./.jpeg., or .png, then go to a website like www.imageshack.us and click "browse" and upload the picture. It will give you a little preview thumbnail so you can see if it uploaded right, and it will give you some options for posting it. If the picture isn't overly large, you can also click "advanced linking" at the bottom and take the address it gives you. Look at your options when posting threads and replies and you'll see a button for "insert image." Click that and insert the address you got from the "advanced linking" section. It's not all as complex as I'm probably making it sound.
