Some are witnessing the birth of spring season, the time of year when it transitions from cold to hot. Let's celebrate with another Character Creation Challenge! This time, we will turn our attention to one of the newer mutants, Idie Okonkwo a.k.a. Oya.

Everyone is encouraged to participate. Just follow 3 rules:

1. Though you must stick to the character in the title, you may choose any variant of that character whether it is a younger, older, alternate version, etc. 

2. Provide the character's rarity, name of each power, color, cost, and description. If you're feeling a bit more expressive, also provide the power differentiation at each level. Include as much or little detail as you desire, but providing more detail paints a better picture. I like to include all of the bells and whistles, but as long as the information is there and understandable, it is fine. As an example, I will begin the challenge with my own design.

3. You may utilize someone else's ideas, but give them credit. There are few unique ideas in the world so the chances that at least 2 people will think of having X character do a "thing" is high. Post your ideas freely. However, if you were inspired by something in another post, include it, but give credit to the inspiration for your idea.

4. This is not a rule, but if you would like to comment, be constructive. Feel free to discuss, however, if you think someone did a horrible job and you believe you could have done better, then submit your own character design.

LET'S BEGIN!

    I think this is a very impressive move set, especially how it is themed around two colours of tiles, which might make it easier to focus. Her powers are also well synergised and I can see them being very useful with someone like M.O.D.O.K., 3* Captain Marvel, 4* Iceman, Bishop etc

    Pyrokinetic Burst and Cryokinetic Chill just fit in so well with one another, I especially love how they work off ach others colour and boost their own on the board. 

    Thermal Imbalance would create some powerful tiles with the right team, in my opinion. Someone who can convert tiles to Blue or Red, for example.

    All in all, I think I will really enjoy using a character like this. Probably I will run at 4/4/5 or so. Great work!

    Oya (Thermodynamic Mutant)

      

    4-Star Rarity (Legendary)



    Health: Moderate

    Match Damage: Low

     Wouldn’t Burn - 8  AP


    Oya raises the temperature of colder areas, creating fire. Creates a 3-turn Red Countdown tile that creates two Strength 60 Attack tiles every round. If there is a Blue Wouldn’t Freeze Countdown tile on the board, create two strength 120 tiles instead.


    Level 2 - Countdown tile creates Strength 70 tiles or strength 140 tiles.

    Level 3 - Creates a 4-turn Countdown tile that creates Strength 75 tiles or strength 150 tiles.

    Level 4 - Countdown tile creates Strength 90 tiles or strength 180 tiles.

    Level 5 - Creates a 5-turn Countdown tile that creates Strength 95 tiles or strength 190 tiles.


     Wouldn’t Freeze - 8  AP


    Oya lowers the temperature of hotter areas, creating ice. Creates a 3-turn Blue Countdown tile that freezes the enemy for one round it is on the board. If there is a Red Wouldn't Burn Countdown tile on the board, also deals 900 damage to the target.


    Level 2 - Countdown tile stuns enemy for 2 rounds. Deals 400 damage if no Red Wouldn't Burn Countdown tile on the board and 1200 damage if a Red Wouldn't Burn Countdown tile on the board. 

    Level 3 - Creates a 4-turn Countdown tile.

     Laws of Thermodynamics - 9  AP


    Oya manipulates the laws of thermodynamics to her advantage. Converts 4 random tiles into Red or Blue tiles, targeting Team-Up tiles first. Then, depending on which colour is most present on the board, fires Wouldn’t Burn or Wouldn’t Freeze at no cost. 


    Level 2 - Converts 6 random tiles. 

    Level 3 - (PASSIVE) Oya’s match damage deals 15% increased match damage for each Red tile on the board and gains a burst of 500 health when making a Blue match.

    Level 5 - Converts 8 random tiles. (PASSIVE) Oya’s match damage deals 25% increased match damage for each Red tile on the board and gains a burst of 900 health when making a Blue match.

    @Kelvinkhr Thank you. As for yours, I really like how Wouldn't Burn progresses with each level. You also did a good job playing her Red and Blue off of each other. 

    Then I got to her last power: Laws of Thermodynamics. Using this one to provide a second opportunity to fire one of her first two powers is a nice touch as it puts all of the player's focus on the first two powers. In addition, it applies another layer of benefits using the same Red and Blue tiles. As much as I like her last power, I would run a build of 5/5/3 for this one.

    I enjoyed this one. Good work.
