As some of you may know, I’m a fan of World of Warcraft (I currently have a Level 70 Undead Mage called “DarthRampage”). The game is much fun and very addictive. One of the key elements of the game is gear. Yes you have your regular “Strength” and “Intelligence” ratings… but what makes your character really unique and powerful is the equipment they use. Various gear can give you bonuses, powers and advantages (or sometimes disadvantages and drawbacks).
Anyway, I was thinking the other day about what some movie characters World of Warcraft stats and gear would be if translated. I figure it would look something like this:
Name: Superman
Race: Kryptonian

Agility: 1000
Stamina: 1000
Intellect: 200

Enchanted cape of Child Neglect
Enchanted cape gives wearer a +15 bonus to avoid making child support payments.
Mystic Blue Tights of the Voyeur

Elvish Boots of the Predictable Opponent
Boots of the Predicable Opponent gives wearer the advantage of a 78% probability that any opponent will always have the same scheme and plan of attack (ie. use of kryptonite and real estate plans)
Undergarments of the Mighty Unfocused Dragon
