I am having trouble wrapping my brain around the concept "well-made chalupa".

 

Me, too. I thought it was a mythical creature, like a bandersnatch or an honest politician.

But he's putty in the hands of any female alien character with Seduction.

 

Especially if she has some exotic feature like pointy ears, green skin, a filmy yet opaque garment that appears about to fall off but ever does, or (my personal favorite) exxagerated secondary sexual characteristics.

Not particularly difficult to model, but it fits the commercials theme....

 

The Cavemen: Everyone thinks they died out long ago. They have Distinctive Features: Extremely Hairy, but are otherwise human in every way, dressing in the latest in modern fashion. They have extremely sarcastic and abrasive personalities due to a lifetime of condescension and insults.

Some of the stories are annoying, some are real gems. Peer Review and Reflected Glory in particular were quite good in an Iron Age way.

 

Don't forget that the Revenant from "Peer Review" is a now a regularly appearing character in the PS238 comic. He's training/mentoring tyler Marlocke.

I had attempted a character for a Mystery Men-style game a while ago. But I couldn't write up his powers correctly - it was just too difficult. If you can, I would really like to see how it was done-

 

Retroactive Man: Dressing in 60's flares. He has the power to delay effect from cause. He can fire a gun, and not have the bullet hit for days. He often checks into a hospital immediately after a combat, where he suddenly succumbs to all the damage he has taken. The most unnerving aspect is his entering a room, and then the door opening anc closing behind him.

 

 

1st Effect

 

The advantage time delay (on 60pts active) as a naked modifier would allow you to use any power (focus) up to 60pts active and even though you've stabbed, shot, punched, kicked or ran over someone the damage (Effect) would not go off until the chosen time.

 

2nd Effect

 

You could have time delay as a naked modifier (on 60pts active or damage cap of the game) make it usable as an attack area effect 1 hex mega scale Limitation only affect powers that affect. This would produce the follow effect any power in the area from damage to effects would take place at the designated time (after combat, 1min, 10 min, ect.) later.

 

Example 1 You've been hit with 10d6 EB vs. Energy for 30 pts of damage after your 15 ED you take 15pts stun but since you make everything in the area have time delay you want actually take the damage until the designated time.

 

Example 2 Some one flashes you with 5d6 flasf for 5 phase because you have no flash defence however you want go blind until the designated time do to it's on a time delay.

 

Example 3 Someone takes over you Mind with 12d6 mind control and tells you to attack your friends, well you will attack them but after the designated time has passed thanks to that time delay on their abiliity concerning the area.

 

Teleport with the limitation can only go where you could go in the first place thus if some is locked you cant get in but the visible effect sfx of you teleport is that the entry takes place after you've entered.

"Around 3pm, when your blood sugar and energy are low, some say Robert Goulet appears and messes with your stuff."

 

This would be a damn funny thing for me to spring on my players, especially in circumstances where it would seem logically impossible. So if you draw your sword and a baguette comes out, or your space laser pistol has been switched with a squirt gun, you know wo's to blame; Robert Goulet.
