teen champions question

[Wolf]

hey herodom,

I'm getting the new Teen Champions next weekend (supposedly when it comes in) to run a champ's game with my GF as a solo thing. So several things:

1- Can someone write me some sort of a brief review, those who have it?

2- I've never really GM'd a supers game, I think I'll suck at it, I've done lots of Fantasy, Action, Modern stuff. I'm trying to read through the Champions genre book, but any additional help would be really cool.

3- I'm really nervous, I run a lot of the 4th ed, and had the Fred book, now the Re-Fred, however I never actually have run anything in either system... so this is not so much a bullet point, but just an admission of guilt... plus I've been out of the gaming loop for about a year... so it's been a while...

blink, blink. Thanks guys and gals.

-Woof

Re: teen champions question

 

1- I haven't read enough of it to really be able to comment on it. I like the information they give you about how teen characters intereact and all of the situations they might get into. I tend to have some differences of opinion as far as points costs for various genre characters. The Ravenswood material is very interesting to me but I enjoy reading about the Champions Universe. There are a lot of characters in the book, and that is a real plus to me. I'd buy the book just for the Ravenswood and characters alone, though I know most people would buy it for the genre information.

 

2- That's a really hard thing to say. Try to keep in mind as you play that what makes superhero characters interesting is their personalities and their interaction without the people around them. Read some good comic books to get a feel for the genre and then try to emulate them. How your character deals with his Aunt June is just as important as how he deals with Grond. Make the personal stories interesting and the battles fun [fun by using quotes and world ballons. Comics are very much about talking in character, moreso then fantasy or any other genre] and don't get too hung up on the rules. Try to emulate the awe of superpowers when possible.

 

3- My only advise here is KISS [Keep It Simple Stupid]. Don't start with complicated character builds. Make the first couple of games about role-playing so everyone can establish their characters and keep the combats in those few games simple: bank robbery, fire, accident. Then once everyone is feeling good about the system and characters throw them against some real badguys. By keeping it simple in the beginning you wean yourself into the game as much as you do the players.

 

Most important don't get hung up on rules. Champions is about using your imagination and allowing the players to have some fun with being superhuman. Don't make it a GM versus player game. Too many GM's like to defeat their players. The players are the heroes of the story so let them be that. Your job is to entertain and challenge, not defeat or belittle them.

 

I know that is all very basic. I hope it helps some.

Re: teen champions question

 

I'll second what MitchellS said about keeping it simple. For example, suppose your girlfriend wants to play someone who's pretty strong and tough. You might go with just the basics like this:

 

STR 50

CON 25

STUN 50

 

PD 15

ED 15

 

Armor 10 PD / 10 ED (tough skin)

 

...and then some skills. (I don't know what point level of charcter you're shooting for).

 

This is a very basic build for an uncomplicated (mechanics-wise) low-level brick. Short, simple, to the point. Other stats (like Comlieness ) can be adjusted to taste. If you think it's appropriate, a couple of Combat Skill Levels with Hand-to-Hand attacks.

 

Oh, and one other thing...don't be fooled by some of the example characters in the book. What I mean is this...Teen Champions characters are often supposed to be lower-powered than the "usual" Champions character, but some of the example characters are up in the 500+ point range. These characters are the school's equivalent to Superman (or, I guess, that should more properly be "Superboy") and a PC is not expected to be able to match this NPC in raw power. Just so you know.

 

And good luck!

Re: teen champions question

 

Actually, I've got an idea, and I'm going to call on the HERO forum community to help out!

 

I'd like to see a number of sample PC characters put together as examples for Wolf, that he could also offer to his girlfriend as possible characters for her to take as her own. If she doesn't take them, then he's got some ready-made NPC classmates for her character!

 

So...whaddaya say? Can we help him out?

 

Assuming that Wolf is going to follow the Teen Champions guidelines for how the PCs should be built, here's the instructions for the sample characters you're going to help build:

 

100 Base + up to 100 in Disads

 

Characteristics up to 30 max

 

Speed up to 5 max

 

Total CV in the range of 4-8

 

Total DCV in the range of 4-10

 

Active points in any given power, max of 40 (or maybe up to 60, but rare if so)

 

Real points in any given power, max of 20 (in other words, most powers will have some hefty limitations or drawbacks)

 

Total points in skills: 30 max (unless the character is skill-based instead of powers-based)

 

Skill Rolls should be in the range of 8- to 12- (again, unless the character is skill-based)

 

Defenses should top out at 12 normal and 6 resistant.

 

And remember...keep the builds simple!!

 

So...any takers?

 

I'll go ahead and do a basic brick like I was talking about. I think a couple of basic energy projectors (fire, ice, electricty perhaps), a mentalist or telekinetic, and perhaps a skill-based type (science or martial arts) would be a good place to start.

Great teen based comics

 

Teen Titans - Geoff Johns's run has just come to an end and you can get the trades cheap.

 

Young Avengers - It shouldn't work! But I really like it.

 

Runaways - Absolutely fantastic and you can get the entire first volume in a HC. Children of a super villain group rebelling against their evil parents. Gotta love Brian K. Vaughan!

Re: teen champions question

 

Here's a very basic teenaged female brick. I didn't give her a real name, or a super-hero name, because I'm sure that you (or your girlfriend, if she decides to use this character) can come up with something appropriate on your own. Of course I had to take some liberties at defining the character's personality in order to come up with 100 points of disads, but those various Psych disads and such are easily swapped out for others.

Re: teen champions question

 

Here's a basic mentalist. She can read minds (telepathy) and make you feel like you have the hangover she once had (ego attack). Though she has no ability to alter people's minds (no mind control) she's somehow gotten the reputation of liking to do just that...perhaps because she tends to keep to herself and people are basically mistrustful of mentalists anyway. She's subject to frequent migraines, possibly because she hasn't learned to tune out other people's thoughts completey. She also takes some stun damage if she's subject to a sight-group flash attack because the dazzling light sends a flash of pain through her optic nerves and can set off one of her migraines.

Re: teen champions question

 

Here's a basic ice-themed energy projector. The character is written up as a cheerleader who is very warm, friendly, and helpful with the ironic twist of having ice-based powers. Despite her sunny personality, she'll probably end up being named "Ice Queen".

Re: teen champions question

 

'Cuz Dr. Anomoly asked nicely. Here's a martial artist/energy projector. Little more complex than Dr.A's characters, but nothing to out there - one Linked Power and some Martial Arts. Plus a MultiPower for the EnergyBlaster portion.

 

She wants to be one of the Good Guys, but she's a bit of a trouble maker, mostly because she really just wants some attention. She's the happy friendly type, and really does want everyone to like her. but can't help but get in trouble with her antics, and is usually dubbed a trouble maker because of it.

Re: teen champions question

 

Defenses should top out at 12 normal and 6 resistant.

 

6 resistant means that any bricks aren't going to be bullet-proof.

 

I would suggest that some characters might be allowed to increase the proportion of their defences that are resistant. It wouldn't be necessary to allow them to buy more than 18 DEF overall.

 

This would make it possible to build a character with, say, 13 rDEF and 5 normal. They will be no harder to stun, but are "bulletproof".

PIck up Young Justice. THAT was a book with Teen Characters and they actually did look like teens.

Then there were the early New Mutants (let's not think about what the title degenerated to *sigh*)

(shrug) Those are just the guidelines suggested in the Teen Champions book itself, which Wolf is going to be picking up. That's why I suggested them. But they are, after all, only suggestions and guidelines, and the object of the "excercise" is to help Wolf out...and I imagine he'd do some tweaking to the characters anyway.

Didn't read "all" of the posts yet, just wanted to see what's up... as I just got back from a gruling day at Disneyland (sp?) and a long bus ride home I'm blury- eyed and having breakfast made for me by a more and more Irate (sp?) girlfriend... so from my skimming: YOU GUYS ROCK, Thanks... really, I'll get back to you tonight/ tomarrow, I really appriciate the help.

I posted my version of the cartoon Teen Titans in this thread:

They're a little bit tougher than the guidelines that Dr. A suggested, but they could be tweaked down a bit.

Great teen based comics

 

Teen Titans - Geoff Johns's run has just come to an end and you can get the trades cheap.

 

Young Avengers - It shouldn't work! But I really like it.

 

Runaways - Absolutely fantastic and you can get the entire first volume in a HC. Children of a super villain group rebelling against their evil parents. Gotta love Brian K. Vaughan!

 

Chris:)

 

Academy X would also work great for a teen setting example. The book has made me want to run a teen supers game.

Re: teen champions question

 

'Cuz Dr. Anomoly asked nicely. Here's a martial artist/energy projector. Little more complex than Dr.A's characters, but nothing to out there - one Linked Power and some Martial Arts. Plus a MultiPower for the EnergyBlaster portion.

 

She wants to be one of the Good Guys, but she's a bit of a trouble maker, mostly because she really just wants some attention. She's the happy friendly type, and really does want everyone to like her. but can't help but get in trouble with her antics, and is usually dubbed a trouble maker because of it.

 

replying to myself always seems weird...

 

Anyway, what I stripped from this character was the Super Name I came up with for her: Soda-Pop Crush!

 

Hence all the Soda refrences in her Multipower. I took out the name to make it a little more generic for this thread. Just thought I'd share because, IMNHO, that's a darn cool name for a teen-champ.

Re: teen champions question

 

Johns run didn't end, Liefeld's stint on Titans was just a fill in, that's all.

 

Apologies. It's Flash he is finishing a run on isn't it. That guy writes too many damn books! GJ and Bendis must be very busy men!

If you need it, I've got 250 and 350 point versions of her as well. She was built for an abruptly aborted Teen Champs game and never played.

Shure, if you feel so inclined.

otherwise, Fuzzy-T wanted to thank you all so she set up her own account and went to it... as of lately she's fixated on disney's new VMK sim's type program.
