Newbie question on Power creation.
by Guest oddbatt- 14 replies
- 218 views
Okay... I have a few questions on power creation that can be answered thusly: What are a few ways to build the following power framework? Hero absorbs energy attacks to perform the following tasks: 1. Store pts in reserve for later use. 2. Increase STR, PD and ED. 3. Fire energy blasts. Restrictions: 1. All powers must come from reserve pts. In other words, unless the hero absorbs energy, they cannot use powers. Thanks in advance! Pax, ossbatt

I have yet to play the game, and this is the first characters I've finalised. Any recommendations? For you GMs out there, would you let this Multiform fly in a 150/100 game? Thanks in advance. Harold Farnsworth History Harold is a genuinely nice guy. He'll take you to the airport, pick you up when you're too drunk to drive, help you move, baby-sit your four year old so you can have a night out with your S.O. He has one vise. He is.. well... curious. Harold has always had a love of seeing what's behind door number three. As a child, he would sneak into places where he wasn't supposed to be, from the neighbor's houses to the warehouse's in the…

I've got an electricity-based EB character with XP to spend, and I'm trying to come up with some neat and interesting new powers. His handle is Juice, and his special effect is that, after having been struck by lightning, his body's natural electric energy field is multiplied dramatically. He's already got: 16 Electromagnetic Powers: Elemental Control - Will Not Work Underwater (-¼) N/A 16 1 Riding the Magnetic Field: Flight 20" 4 16 2 The Van Allen Slide: Flight 10" - Megascale (1" = 1000 kilometers; +1) 4 16 3 Magnetic Bubble: Force Field (+20 PD/+20 ED) 4 44 Electrical Powers: Multipower (55) - Will Not Work Underwater (-¼) N/A 4 u Shockb…

I'm looking for some adventures published along time ago. Was wondering if anyone would want to trade for them. I don't have any stuff to trade, other than my art abilities. Would be willing to draw a character portrait for some of these items. My biggest want are these two: Coriolis Effect Atlas Unleashed I don't remember if they're any good or not; I was a kid when I had them last. Just kind of want them for nostalgic reasons. I might list a few more in the future. Also would like to eventually get: Champions 3D To Serve and Protect Never read them but sound good. If you have any other old school that's worth trading, and want to…

Think up your favorite conflation of unexpected HERO archetypes (Brick, Blaster, etc.) and post them here. I'll start this off by proposing a character called Dash, who can function as an NPC mentor to a super-team that lacks its own full-time gadgeteer. I leave creation of stats as an exercise for the reader. Dash is a Gadgeer/Speedster. Dash was, some years ago, a crack speedster, part of an existing hero team. He was cocky, brash, bold, and arrogant. He could accelerate his body (and brain) at super-speeds. He thought nothing could kill him. He's been right, so far - he's still alive. He's also paralyzed from the waist down, after a climactic super-batt…

In the UNTIL Database sourcebook each drawing shows the Martinez Scale in the upper right corner. Is there a published Scale and how does one figure it out. The reason I ask: About 10 years ago I came up with a mathmatical Scale for rating my Supers and I would like to know what others used. A.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the USPD Character Pack for Hero Designer is now available in the Online Store! It has all the powers, options, and variants from the USPD in easy-to-use HD format. The USPD Pack costs $30, significantly more than our average Character Pack, for several reasons: 1. It contains the entire contents of the book, whereas other Character Packs contain just writeups and omit character backgrounds and other useful info. 2. The Character Packs are intended as a supplement for our published books, not a replacement. We want to encourage people to buy the book, so we price the Character Pack higher than the book. If you have…

The local Champions guru has been too busy to run a game since the BBB, so I've been volunteered to make a quick game for the group. Character is based on 350 points, 60 AP cap, 30 AP defenses...

Here's a character who was originally intended as a gadgeteer, but I guess I really wanted a power suit guy. At any rate, I think he makes a pretty good science/tech guy for a team. I think he's neat, but I would love some comments.

1st off, I know this should be under hero designer, but it looks like that forum is pretty slow compared to this one. I just installed Hero Des. and updated to 1.47, but when I try to check out the disad list there are no examples, am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot, Shaft.....out.

First of all, this is not an attack. Second, I am a fan. I've been playing Champions since before Champions 2 (I still have the original hex map and blue dice that came with the boxed set). I own so many 4th Ed and earlier supplements, I could open a store... I bought the 5th Ed rules, and enjoyed them. I haven't played them yet, but I have seen many improvements. I bought Champions, glad that Aaron was back. Now I know Aaron is far more 4 Color than I am... but did anyone else think too much of Champions bordered on corny? I have only had CU and CKC for a few days... and maybe the problem is that I have not given any of this new material enough time; but I'm…

I'm making a character (tentatively) named the "Iron Sage". He's a Buddhist Mystic/Brick. As a Buddhist, he must always be open to non-violent alternatives to confrontations. He must also always offer his enemy a chance to surrender (and thus avoid violence). How many points would you all say this is worth, and what should the specs be?

I am a total fan of motiff teams such as the Serpent Society, The Royal Flush Gang and the Death Throes (don't ask). I've decided to create/rip-off my own theme based on The Pride mentioned in GURPS SuperScum. Any suggestions from the learned panel? Going off archetypes: Brick Energy Projector: Snow Leopard, only one I'm sure of Martial Artist: Like to stay away from the obvious Mentalist Metamorph Mystic Powered armor Speedster: Cheetah - too obvious? Weaponmaster As always, thanks in advance.

My brother wants to create a Lucha Libre [Luchador] Professional Wrestler type PC. Ninja Hero, Ultimate Martial Artist, and the core book all have moves for wrestling type PCs, but I don't feel any of the offered moves comes close to approximating the high-flying [dynamic] Lucha Libre style. Does anyone have any ideas? Or has anyone seen something similar to what I'd be looking for?

Hey everybody. Been lurking for awhile, but just signed up since everyone here seems cool to talk to. I'm having trouble with a phenomenon that usually doesn't pop up in the comics much. My group of 4 PCs have all gained children, whether through natural processes, adopting, or building them. There aren't many mainstream comics aside from the FF that have prominent kid characters, and I don't read any books that have multiple teenagers per family (one PC has 5!) I'm especially puzzled by what to do with one PC's children. SHe's, paradoxily, 18 years old and team leader. She's recently admitted to having a robot child on live TV. RObot as in silvery android…

Here is my take on the Unstoppable Character (Thanks to various posts on the boards.)THis character is basically a wrestler that helps out local hero groups and police when he can.He is in the META-HUMAN Sports leauge.

I've been doing some work on my Golden Age Superheroes/Pulp Heroes campaign, and I've decided to make one of the main villains a Nazi mad scientist/Prussian noble whose purpose is to keep the heroes busy at home so that they don't go to Germany to fight. I thought it would be cool to give him an interesting base, but the whole "German castle" thing didn't work because it needed to be in the US. Then, last time I visited Germany, we went to the Zeppelin museum. I've decided to give him a "castle" in the sky -- a giant zeppelin! I figure his ancestral castle was destroyed during World War I, and he rebuilt using "high technology". I've even gotten inspiration from the …
