I love superheroes, I make no apology for that! A while back I did a post that compared my User Types to various superheroes and super-villains.
I thought it would be fun to do the same thing for the Disruptor sub-types. It has caused me some issues and I am not totally convinced by one of them, so I would love to see your comments or indeed conversation in the forums about how this could be improved. However, until then – here are the Disruptor Superhero Archetypes!
Magneto: He represents a bit of everything so is my choice for the overall Disruptor. He wants change, his way and will use any method possible to assure it!
- The Joker (Griefer): He is the ultimate Griefer. He just wants to destroy people and create chaos. It may be because he feels there is a reason and that destroying the people will destroy the system, but it is probably just for fun!
- Ra’s Al Ghul (Destroyer): Ra’s has a belief and that belief is that the system is broken and needs to be destroyed. Unlike The Joker though, he wants to destroy the system itself (the people are just collateral damage) and rebuild it into what he feels is the “right” system.
- Nick Fury (Influencer): Nick is the director of S.H.I.E.L.D and the man who brought together the Avengers. His mission is to protect the citizens of Earth and will use any means to motivate those around him to help him do this. He uses his influence to convince both superheroes and senators alike to bring about a change for the better.
- Jim Gordon (Improver): James Gordon the head of Gotham Police Department, as corrupt a police force as there has ever been. He has spent much of his life trying to find all of the problems in the department and the city and fix them – rebuilding and improving the system from the inside.
I will combine this with the last article soon, but for now – enjoy and as I say, let me know if you have other thoughts!
