Basil Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power Multiform inside a VPP (that has "Only Multiforms," "Only One Power," etc.). Failing that, 4th Edition Shapeshift. You know, back when Shapeshift altered your physical conformation (i.e., shifted your shape). Instead of the messy crash-and-burn that 5th Ed. has.

Guest daeudi_454 Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power I would like to thank everyone for their replies it has given me some good ideals for a game I am planning to run where the PC's will recieve ONE power after waking up one morning. It will be a low powered game and a change from their current 500+ point characters they are currently playing. I can hear the groans now they like those multipowers and VPP's but sometimes change is good and needed. Yep- I would definitely choose a Naked Advantage: Variable Advantage for that.

NoahBody Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power Oddly enough, I just had a similar discussion with my wife this weekend. Since we have a 2-year old and a 2-month old, we have decided that Duplication with four forms each would allow both of us to work, stay home with the kids, goof off and sleep simultaneously. Of course, my wife pointed out that our dupes would probably argue over who got to do what... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lxndr Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power As long as the duplicates shared memories once they finally rejoined, I imagine your duplicates would be pretty easy-going about it.

digital_lorax Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power Required rule-breaker response: Physical transformation: Anything into Anything Else. 2nd required rule-breaker response: cosmic VPP semi-serious response: yeah, probably complete life support (Inherant not being really required, so you could turn it off anytime you wanted.) What he said. But the life support would be more than the immortality. You could do deep sea diving with no equipment. Rescues, salvage, whatever. Fire rescues would be much easier too, no need for breathing and no problem with the heat, though you'd probably have to be careful with the actual fire.

actingkeith Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power Telepathy or Universal Translator with the Knowledge of Culture and Events. The Peace Maker Hey! that's not a Peace Maker power... That's more like a "Path to peace through engendering a growing mutual understanding amongst mankind if only mankind wanted true peace and understanding rather than selfish world domination which is much more likely to be what it actually wants" power... The power I want: Major Mental Transform, Improved Results Group (Anything +1), Completely Invisible Effect ...is a Peace Maker power... don't give them a choice.

薔薇語 Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power Assuming I couldn't just have a Large VPP with Cosmic on it and the special effect being "what ever I d*** well please. Hmm It would have to be Teleportation with all the little*(and big) adders. The ability to be somewhere one second and all the way across the world in the next just appeals to me. But maybe you could tell that by my self made Title. La Rose Sir Teleportation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ndreare Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power I would either want 100 PRE or Perfect Knowledge of all events in the past. 100 PRE would be pricy (90 Points) But 90 KS: All Events That Have Happened -99 Would allow me to know the answer to everthing that has hapened without messing with knowledge about things that are going to happen, so I could stil live, gamble and love.

Just plug the receiver into the AUX inputs on the VCR and pop in an 8 hr tape! But this makes three of us (at last count) that picked Clairsentience with Retrocognition.

If everyone knew you had the power then it should reduce the levels of serious crime since you could tell the police exactly who did it and (more importantly) where to find any evidence to get a conviction.

pendelfield Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Re: WWYD if you could recieve ONE super power I think I would go with force field. Force Field (PD/ED/Mental Defense/Power Defense/Flash Defense:Touch Group/Flash Defense: Smell/Taste Group/Flash Defense: Sight Group/Flash Defense: Mental Group/Flash Defense: Hearing Group) with numbers as high as possible, flight might be good until someone shoots you down or something "Did you see tha size o that pigeon".
