LiquidFury Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 I'm fairly new to the system and I'm trying to create a body control power. To be a little more specific, my character has to touch the person but then disappears and basically possesses them. I was thinking it would be something like mind control but that's not really giving me the effect i'm looking for. A little help please?

levi Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Re: Help with a power... Welcome to the HERO Boards! There is a great search feature Ben has built in. This power design gets asked every other month or so...search the boards for possesion and you should find several threads with helpful info.

Lord Beavis Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Re: Help with a power... This has been discussed a few times. There are two ways to go: (maybe more) This is a compound Power as it is very complex 1) Mind Control, Desolification, and Mind Link - However the person gets to fight the Mind Control every phase. 2) Major Transform, Desolidification, and Mind Link - However the person buys back his Body....then breaks the "hold" You may want to create it as Continous attack, 0 END, All or Nothing.

Hugh Neilson Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Re: Help with a power... Combine ExtraDimensional Movement usable as an attack (you shunt the other character off to a "limbo dimension" and a Multiform with lots of extra forms (only to become a character who has your mental abilities, and the physical abilities of the target shunted off). Characters with more points than your Multiform can handle are immune to EDM. You'll need some other immunities as well, since a character who can just possess whoever he wants becomes a campaign wrecker pretty quick. "Oh, I'll just Possess Dr. Destrpyer. No sense ever leaving this body!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susano Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Re: Help with a power... I have been using Desolid with a No Range Mind Control (Linked) and Clinging (to stay inside the body). Seems to work fairly well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Re: Help with a power... Without reading through all those threads, I'll say that there's also a Bodyjacking power in the "Until Superpowers Database" (or USPDB as you'll see it around the board), available through the Hero Store and finer retailers!
