this was created for MM

(For each power there should be a choice also or it is a MP or a loose power)

It can be done with any combination of dice:

1-10
... typical percentile MSH way
90-100
or
a mix with d20 and d10 like stated in the link

please feel free to experiement
You will make a few players happy

I know the existence of one on the internet and one in the book Champions
What i want is something that is made up by the players...

I suppose I can't see why we shouldn't just expand on the one in the Champions 5th book? It has a few bugs, but starting there strikes me as better than working from scratch

Ok. Here's a program that Sam Bell wrote I don't know how long ago. (90s)

It's in C and written for 4th edition, but probably has some of Sam's House Rules applied. I've wanted to translate it over to Perl, but procrastinated. It's in my list of things to do when I get stranded on a desert island, but still have a computer that somehow runs with all my data...

Note: It was written for Solaris, but compiles on Linux. (With some warnings) It might compile via some Windows item.

The Data directory might give someone an idea.
