So, I've been wanting to field Bran do Castro, Triple Zero (for those who do not know, it's a Nomad special character with Super-Jump and Super-Climb).
However, I have a thing for fielding named characters unless they are counts-as. Silly, I know, but that's how it is.
So I'm pondering about what to use. I feel the most obvious choice would be to use a converted Zero, but s/he has to be converted enough to stand out from the other zeros...
Also, I kind of want to avoid the monkey-thing that's going on with him.
So, do you have any ideas what I could do for a super-climb, super-jump Zero? Conversion ideas or other models are all welcome.

(Afterthought: Hm, perhaps this is supposed to be in the P&M subforum..?)

Well since he has the animal thing going on he would be good as a Chimera. KInda makes sense since they are both really good at CC. I don't know how you could avoid the monkey-thing since it's kind of a part of the figure.

I think you misunderstood me... Though that's my fault, I wasn't too clear on what I meant Changed the topic, hoping it's more clear now.
It's not that I want to field the model. I do not want to field the model, but something else that would use his rules.

That... Actually sounds cool. It makes sense. The fluff could be nice. I could pose him kind of cool too.
Why didn't I think of that?

That is a good idea. I like it too. Zero is good but I think also a Spekter would work out as well.

Now what bothers me is that it might look a little too much like an ordinary zero... But I'll think of something.

Why not swap a head from a normal zero onto him omit the tail and file/greenstuff any remaining fur then he is just a mutant with funny hands and feet and stays close to his zero roots. might even be able to pose him climbing a wall or hanging upside down form a light post !

If Haqqislam's Tarik Mansuri can get super-jump in spite of being a rather ordinary-looking soldier, and the Lasiqs can get climbing plus in spite of not showing anything indicitive of climbing, you can easily take any special-looking Nomad model, spice it up a bit, and clearly communicate to your opponent what it is.
