Posted August 22, 200717 yr comment_54582 This is submitted for a bit of help. I’ve been breaking my brain trying to figure out how to do this character for a campaign. I’m trying to make a villain who’s power is that he explodes. Yes, HE explodes for 12D6 of damage. He’s got a decent amount of PD/ED but takes 1.5 stun from water based attacks. When he only has 1/3 of his body left he has 3 phases before he goes boom. Right now his stun is 75/body 30. Any suggestions on how to create this? Thanks for the assist you all rock!

I feel it’s more of a self defense maneuver, he’s immune to the effects but I’d like to have it sort of act like in comics where the “hero” gets swarmed by enemies and burst out of it only attempting to do actual damage.
August 22, 200717 yr comment_1336927 Re: Villan creation question Sounds like a delayed triggered Area of Effect, no range, hole in the middle. AOE or explosion are applicable. Attach it all to an Energy Blast or or a ranged killing attack. Wallah. Trigger is 1/3 body, delay is 3 phases. Er... I think delay is "extra time" officially.

August 22, 200717 yr comment_1337002 Re: Villan creation question I personally would go with Explosion, Personal Immunity, Trigger (3 Segments after reaching 1/3 BODY), No Range, possibly with Charges or Increased Endurance Cost, possibly with some sort of Side Effect if he dematerializes and rematerializes or has some similar personal effect.
