Mutants at Melaka

One of those back date posts.

This is the second time I've driven into P. Malaysia(first was Ophir), carrying with me an assortment of mutant characters:

1. Shuhann aka Hiong Gai Gai
- Legend has it that he is able to metamorph mentally and physically into any known creature of brawn and strength. It seems like he has taken a liking with bears, so the "bear paw strike" has been a favourite move. His primary mission in the trip is to avoid the sun, seek out cool areas, and of course, devastate any robbery attempt on the vehicle along the way.

2. Eeping aka Kuja
- Apparently one of the weakest characters in physical attributes, high resistance to heat/thermal attacks but extremely fearful of ice-based attacks. Mutation has given her the ability "Eyes of destruction", which does not deal physical damage but the ability to reduce the ego of an average human to that of a mosquito. She was tasked by the headquarters to guard the untamed Hiong Gai Gai; an obvious choice.

3. Michelle aka Sista Pink
- Hyperactivity seems to be her startling attribute as she drags the villians in a shopping/touring/eating spree around town. "Shop till you drop" is her finishing move, usually devastating agility stats of whoever comes near. Statistics have shown that dumping her in the middle of a tropical rainforest is the best counter-attack. Navigation is her primary task in this mission; she also sports the photographic memory of all the good food and shops in any urban setup she's been to before.

4. Alex Lee aka 李大肠
- His assignment in the mission is unknown. "Bin Or Or" or 脸黑黑 seems to be his primary special ability, creating dark negative aura around himself should his cosmic alliance with the GENUS galaxy be threathened. Most humans will be telekinetically jolted away should they come into his aura field unknowingly. Perhaps his ability is the best weapon against North-South highway car robbers or corrupted policemen. It is also rumoured that his telekinetic powers can render pillow-based attacks useless against him.

5. Hansen aka Cloud Strife
- A character to counter balance and compliment Sista Pink; his logical thinking stats have gone way over the charts. Seemingly also equipped good navigation/map-reading skills. He is the only other one who can ride something with 2 wheels connected to a motor. A great technician and mechanic to have in any mission, although it was rumoured that he does not handle mechanical arms that grab majhong tiles very well. Award-winning move: Pillow strike!
Extremely vulnerable to milk-based and tooth-based attacks.

Anyway, there was no robbery along the way, thank goodness.
Melaka is quite a small town with plenty of food to offer but can't say that much for merchandise. It reminds me of chinatown, but with some spices of European history and architecture. The sun was scorching hot during our stay there and I was quite happy to get a bit of the sunlight. Can't say the same for Mr. Hiong though.
