Miraclo pills and Mongoose Blood

[MisterVimes]

I'm trying to think of the best way to create a supply of pills/injections/whatever to temporarily boost enemy agents' stats. Would continuing charges in an OAF/OIF be the best way to go here. I think a framework might be cheesy especially where REC would be concerned.

Help a brotha out?

[Klytus]

Nevr mind continuing charges on stats... I'd go with a simple Aid to the stats you want boosted, set the fade rate to the duration you have in mind, and define the charges as whatever delivery system you like: pills, slap-patches, injections, etc. Of course, there should be built-in side-effects and Limitations to the wonder drug: highly addictive and/or suffering from a stat drain when the effects of the drug fade.

Oh yes, considering the 'source' of this miracle aids to the crime community, you can expect nasty side effects.

[Monolith]

If you just want the agents to have some augmented stats when they are given something, then I would buy the stats as Characteristic/Powers and give them a Continuing Charge limitation.

Caveman Colonic: +10 STR, +5 DEX, +5 CON, +5 STUN (40 AP) 1 Continuing Charge lasting 1 hour: -1/4, Major Side Effect (always occurs when charge runs out): -1/4, IIF (colonic bag): -1/4. Total Cost 23 points.

:D

I am frightened and disgusted, but much like a trainwreck I cannot avert my eyes...:D

The hanging point is REC. I want them to have an annoying little booster pill that they use to recover STUN and END. So, STUN and END Aid with charges? or +20 REC (2 charges)...

Basically a 'potion' to get them back fighting when they shouldn't be, while still keeping them human.

what's your take oh living Titan?

I would just buy it as:
Vitalife: +20 STUN, +20 END, 1 continuing charge lasting 5 minutes: -3/4, Major Side Effect when charge runs out: -1/4, OIF Vitalife Pill: -1/2. Total Cost: 12 points.

I only use Aid when someone can grant a characteristic to someone else (Vitalife Man charges up the thugs with a touch). If the character can grant himself the characteristics then to me it is just a limited characteristic.

I would only go with Recovery on a charge if the person taking the drug can only recover back to his normal levels. If the character gets a boost beyond his normal 20 STUN/20 END, then I would go with the above.

The plan was to ONLY let them recover back to their normal levels, so I may do that. Essentially the REC pill will be used to take a recovery and the recovery is so high as to reset them back to their starting STUN and END.

An interesting spin might be to buy the recovery as a 1 turn charge, so that the person who takes the drug will get to use it 3-5 times before it wears off and causes damage to him.

Vitapill: +20 REC, 1 continuing charge for a Turn:-11/4, Major Side Effect as above: -1/4, OIF Pill: -1/2. Total Cost 13 points.

The character takes the pill and for 1 turn gets major recoveries. After that he takes a 40 point Major Side Effect (BODY Drain, INT Drain, whatever).

[Klytus]

The Heart-Attack Hyper-Caffeene Pill:

3d6 Aid (30 pts) to STUN and END (+¼) Fade Rate 5 per minute (+¼), IIF (pills -¼), 1 charge (-2) , Extreme Side Effect: STUN and END drained the same amount Aided for 10 minutes after the effects fade (-2) Total: 9 real points.
Plus : +10 REC (20 points). A 1 Hour single Continuing Charge (-¼) IIF: pill (-¼), Extreme Side Effect: Addiction and withdrawl. TOTAL: 13 real points.
GRAND TOTAL: 22 points.

[Monolith]

Stupid miss-post! :)

[Lord Liaden]

Depending on how addicted to this drug you want these agents to be, another approach might be to buy the agents with the heightened REC, END and/or STUN that you want them to have when using it, then give them all a Dependence on the drug leading to Weakness in those Characteristics.

BTW, Mr. Vimes, I'm familiar with the history of Miraclo, but who uses (ick!) mongoose blood?!

The Golden Age Whizzer (All-Winners Squad) got his powers from a transfusion of mongoose blood (instead of toxemia and dying :D ).

When Alan Moore was writing the book Top Ten (which is about a city populated by nothing but supers) one of the more popular 'booster' drugs selling on the black market was called 'Mongoose Blood' in tribute...

So to further the tribute to both stories I created the most byzantine title I could think of... and ended a sentence with a preposition... bad Vimes!:D

That is just an internal software issue with HD to signify that it does not show up under Characteristics on the character sheet.

Sorry, that's at note from Hero Designer. It means that when the character sheet is printed that those numbers are not added to the character's base stats.

[Superskrull]

Somehow this topic reminds me of a scenario Champsguy ran for me and a few others. We were playing supervillains in a combined Marvel/DC world. I was having a blast playing Superskrull for once. Our stated goal was killing the major superheroes off. For some reason, they wanted to start with Aquaman. :) Anyway, one of us was playing the grandson of Baron Blitzkrieg and he'd been this complete idiot and jerk in game so we talked him into a "surefire way to put you up there on Superman's power level" by dosing him up with a coctail of Miraclo & Velocity 9. The way we explained it to the poorly educated neoNazi superthug was that it would enable him to use all his energy on ALL his powers at once for like an hour a day. We, of course, had made sure that he was gonna go up like a drummer for Spinal Tap after like 5 minutes of running in overdrive. We figured he might even take a hero or two with him. That accursed Richards tracked us down however and we had to cut our losses and leave the little bastard to the heroes without juicing him up first.

Anyway, Velocity 9 is a wonderful plot device.

[Law Dog]

Now, of course, if this was a Golden Age campaign, the drugs wouldn't be addictive or have any side effects. Hourman used to pop Miraclo without worry, but of course, whith the modern age overlay they are putting on these old stories, now come to find out the stuff was messing with Rex Tyler pretty bad.

[Mavnn]

MisterVimes, your idea has been official stolen (again). My players hate you already, they just don't know it yet :).

Any complaints if it's being distributed by a Mister Vimes in my background? I quite liked your pantheon idea, and was thinking of remaining it's head after you in honour of the ideas source.

I always loved how often these people would be horrified at all the drug dealers running around loose and then turn around and go and get this wonder drug from somewhere so they could go arrest the nasty drug dealers...

There's just something about the Golden Age that encourages, nay requires a glorious shutdown of all higher brain functions to properly appreciate. :)

More seriously, there should also be a Culminative Mental Transform in the side effects to generate Psych Lim: Addicted for some of these drugs. Culminative and allowing for partial effects (the Psych Lim grows stronger over time).

Keep in mind that this isn't totally without logic. Even in the 80's, before we learned the massively bad side effects, that anabolic steroids looked very attractive. It's the difference between construtive and destructive. From a social perprective, if steroids (or Miraclo) had no bad effects, they would actually provide a benefit without a being destructive. Even in most cases, illicit narcotics will not be destructive to most people who are casual users (I know there are some people gritting their teeth over this, but it is a fact), but the people it does crash, crash hard. Society has of course determined that the price is too great, so nobody whould use these drugs, even the people who could use them responsibly. I'm not going to say that this policy is good or bad, but it does merit some reflection.
If somebody could come up with a Miraclo or a "smart" drug that was proven to have absolutely no negative side effect, you can bet, I wouldn't mind taking it.

I think you could add a Extra Time (Extra Phase) Limitation, to simulate taking one pill/using the autoinjector in your armor. Would be a serious step down from the current 0-Phase activation time.

As I refine this old set of power, consider it added. Great idea.

That list is making me plan an Dark Champions adventure about the underworld pushing these drugs onto regular crooks and how the players can stop the flood of super junkies in Hudson City. Thanks for this great premise. It will probably run for at least a dozen sessions and continue to be a part of the games in the future (old drugs, users having flashbacks etc.)

Thanks. I'm glad you like it. Apparently a heinous drug pusher named "Mr. Vimes" has made a few appearances in a couple of campaigns run by board members.

Not as weird as we might imagine. What if Mister Vimes creates a rug that uses a cocktail of boosters with some modified RNA to extend skills to the user?

What? You have never heard of Mister Vimes's assistant "The Hairdresser" and his famed "Tenchu Toupee"!?!?!
