HeroClix: The Court of Owls
You’ll give a hoot about these villains from the Joker’s Wild set…
The Court of Owls are an underground organized crime group and secret society that has existed in Gotham since colonial times. They are made up of some of Gotham’s oldest and wealthiest families, and use their money and violent tendencies for political gain. They employ deadly assassins they call Talons, some of which are genetic owl-human hybrids.
You can add their influence to your games when The Joker’s Wild set is released. Let’s take a look at what they have to offer…
Our first figures are the 10-point Court of Owls Initiates, 3 click pieces that serve as damage soaks for pieces with Mastermind or other damage transferal traits or powers. Their trait, Raise the Dead, states that when damage is transferred to the Court of Owls Initiate, it’s reduced by 1.
Our next piece is Talon, a 120-point figure who has a range of 5 squares with 2 targets. He possesses a trait called Assassin of the Court, which allows him the use of both Sidestep and Stealth. He can also use Mastermind, but only to transfer damage to characters with the Court of Owls keyword.
Talon also possesses a number of strong standard powers, such as Running Shot, Charge, Precision Strike, Blades/Claws/Fangs, Toughness, Combat Reflexes, Shape Change, Exploit Weakness, and Outwit. Coupled with his Improved Movement – Ignores Hindering Terrain and Ignores Elevated Terrain, Talon is a mobility specialist, and can move and attack with little hindrance.
