Appearance modifiers

The traits sharp teeth and powerful jaw, how animalistic is a humans appearance with this trait?

For a cat like human how much of the face becomes feline?

Asking because I'm trying to get my character drawn up and still unsure about the face.

Thank you for your help.

The Tusk, Teeth & Beaks heading on p 170 indicates that sharp teeth and a prominent jaw will be noticeable. I don't think you can deviate too far from the human model if you want to have full speech, but the game mechanics and the genre conventions don't really reflect that.

So a minor feline jaw with a slight upturn on the nose would be accurate?

Trying to get a decent picture of Flying Snow, that is accurate to his mutant traits.

The last character I drew to fit the traits was PowerSurge, he is wider than he is tall and looks like a six foot tall dwarf.

If you look up cat jaws, you'll find a lot of pictures that might help. I'd say that the character would have a slightly pronounced muzzle with a pointed chin and fairly obvious fangs to go along with the flat feline nose.

So a cat like face, much thanks folks.

A square feline jaw almost cat like nose, human ears and hair.

For the monstrous hands I am studying Large cat paws trying to make them have five fingers but look like paws.

[Bill]

If he's got claws, you'll want to decide whether they look like sharp primate fingernails or if they're the whole final joint of the finger like a cat's.

I wrote them up as humankind Snow leopard paws, fur covered retractable and scary looking.

Getting to use this character is awesome. And I want as much detail as possible, appearance, backstory, gear, favorite color, as much as possible to humanize the combat monster.

With ultra power characters, I am learning the story is the most important part.
