Clayface

The original version of Clayface, Basil Karlo, first appeared in Detective Comics #40 (June 1940). He is a B-list actor who is driven insane when he hears that a remake of the classic horror film he had starred in, Dread Castle, would be shot without him acting in the film, even though he is to be one of the advising staff. Donning the costume of Clayface, a villain he once played in a different movie, he begins killing the actors playing characters he killed in the order and way they die in the film, along with someone who knew his identity. Last, he plans to murder the actor playing the Clayface killer. He is foiled by Batman and Robin.

Engulf: If Clayface successfully pins an opponent, he can draw them into his body. He is no longer considered grappled, and gains a +10 bonus to his opposed grapple checks against the engulfed victim. The victim can free themselves with a successful opposed grapple check. An engulfed victim must hold their breath or begin to suffocate.

Amorpheous: Clayface is immune to critical hits and cannot be flanked. He can pass through any opening half an inch or larger.

Regeneration: Water and electricity deal lethal damage to Clayface.

Shapechange: Clayface can mimic another being’s appearance and abilities. He takes on the physical appearance and ability scores of the imitated being, and gains up to a +20 competence bonus to physical skill checks which can be portioned out. For instance, while mimicking Nightwing, Clayface could gain either a +20 bonus to Tumble, or a +10 bonus to Jump and Climb, or some other combination totaling +20.

Skills: While using his shapechange ability, Clayface gains a +15 competence bonus to Disguise.
