    Icon17 how would you build this concept\power

    The concept is a mentalist that can create a limited # and\or type of mental illusions so well that people believing them take damage. The limited illusions are a brick type charactor and effects that he might cause, ei the illusion of a broken wall and other environmental effects.
    So the character would be a low level mentalist and to the people he could get to believe his illusions a somewhat limited brick.
    I hope this is clear enough. What say you Herodom?

    If you want to use Mental Illusions, it sounds like you can only create a limited type of illusion (Yourself exhibiting superhuman STR), and must get to the level that the target can take STUN and BOD. Each of these is a limitation.

    I'm inclined to give -2 for the first - this removes most of what Mental Illusions can do - and say -1/2 for the second as it restricts, but not mnuch given the restruction already in place for #1. Some form of Selective or Nonselective Area Effect is likely also desirable to affect multiple targets. You'll also want to keep spending END to keep those breakout rolls capped.

    Actually, I think this is pretty neat. What limitation or advantage would you value that at? It would probably be invisible to everyone but the target, too.
    Life is forcing me out of gaming, but I'm gonna go kicking and screaming!

    That's a cool idea. I hadn't thought of that! Like the wyrm said, what value do you give it?

    "Not vs target character"? Seems to me that's just the standard requirement that the Desolid character be affected by something.

    Now a better question is how mkuch extra DEF we give this Desolid construct against attacks that affect desolid from people other than the target, since he should be immune to these.
