Some help with a character

[Corven_Ren]

I am currently converting some of my old 3rd/4th edition characters to 5th. Thanks to hero designer I now understand how multipowers work. I didnt before. The villain is electricity based what powers would you include in the mp beyond the standard enrgy blast?

Dunno...

KA vs. Electronics (Sort of a fry-the-circuits power)

DRAIN for END batteries (discharging them)

EB NND:Being Grounded (Sort of a Taser-like ability to do a STUN only attack, likley over an area)

Not sure what you're asking really. What's the concept? Can he use all his powers at onece, or only a few at a time, or movement, protection, and one attack power at once, or what?

The multipower would contain his offensive type powers. His defenses and movement powers will be in a EC seperate from the mp. Basically he kind of like Electro

If you're just looking for ideas of electrical powers:

 

Offensive:

NND EB - defense is insulating armor or FF

Flash vs Radio Hearing and High Range Radio Hearing

Entangle based on CON - locking muscles rigid

Indirect EB - can send an invisible electrical pulse through any conductive material at hand to shock a target

Dispel (or suppress) vs electronics - Electro-Magnetic Pulse to scramble computers and gadgets

 

Defensive:

FF - Electro-magnetic repulsion field

FW - same

 

Movement:

Teleport - turns into electricity and arcs from point A to Point B (MegaScale only through power or phone lines or other conductors)

Flight - glides along the earth's magnetic fields

 

Other:

Detect electrical fields (great for foiling security systems)

Aid to Multipower pool, only in presence of a lot of electrical power (building mains, high tension wires, substations, etc.)

Extra REC in same situation

Change environment - Magnetic field, minor TK on metal, etc

 

Should be plenty of others. The main limit is that you don't want ALL your defenses in the same MP with your attacks, unless either you have a big enough pool to run several powers at the same time (hence the Aid above), or some of the continuous powers are on something like continuing charges, so you only have to use up your pool for one phase to 'activate' them.

I would also suggest a mind controll vs computers. Depending on how intracate his manipulation of electricity is you could make it one command (Crash system) or leave it more open ended for remote controll of electronic devices. You could also consider applying the indirect advantage to your EB or RKA requiring the availability of a electrical source.
