Phern Grand

Oh Phern Grand… you poor poor awesomely designed guy.
My favorite design for all the grands. But the LAMEST power I ever created!!!
Okay, so how did this guy get so lucky you ask? Me and my friend I sometimes brainstorm with were trying to come up with a power for him.
He's another “I need an alien to make 7 chosen” guys and thus really useless. So we started off naming legit powers. Then we started getting silly. "Let's make HIS power as useless as he is!" Not one to ever be too too serious with my characters and universe I loved it.
It was a close race between rolling into a ball and growing those fins he has. I chose the fins so they could at least block Cean's tentacles a bit.
Throughout the comic I have characters poke fun at his ability as a part of my inside joke on it.
Obviously part of his head was inspired from The Predator movies. Other than that I just put together insect and lizard attributes as I usually did when making these guys.
And that's the story of the most awesome red shirt guy ever.

Aghammer: Well, lots of characters tend to die in my comics XD He does look slimy even in that armor doesn't he? usedbooks: Funny you say that. I was thinking about that dinosaur when I was drawing him this time. [quote]Just be glad you weren't into the biblical/magical number 12... or 40. I can imagine after a while, you'd be like "and this predator has the power of, um, telepathically communicating with office supplies."[/quote] Oh good grief! Yeah I think I'll stick with the biblical #7 Cause chosen humans and chosen aliens are not the only "seven" beings that I had to make up powers for. "I hsve the power of moking typos in posts!"

The frills make me think of the Jurassic park spitting thing. Where's Dennis Nedry when we need him?
