Multipowers & Foci

[Dr Archeville]

Two questions on Multipowers & Focuses:

 

1) If you have a Multipower (say, the Checklist Hero Multipower from pg.86 of the Champions campaign/genre book), and it has OIF on it (on the Multipower and the individuals slots), must the Multipower be one device (like a suit of power armor), or could it be a group of individual items (like the ten rings of Marvel's Mandarin)?

 

How could you stat a Multipower where some slots are one type of focus, and some are another type? Taking the Checklist Hero Multipower example again, if I wanted the Deadly Attack (RKA) and Power Blast (EB) to slots be OAFs (blaster pistols), but have the Booster (Aid), Invisibility Screen (Invisibility), Size Increase (Growth), and Size Reduction (Shrinking) slots to be OIFs (ultra-tech rings or bracelets), how would I do that?

 

 

Thanks!

1. It could be multiple devices, given a proper special effect. The classic example is a gun belt (itself an OIF) holding various pistols, grenades, and other weapons (all individually OAFs).

 

2. To do that you just give each slot whichever form of Focus it requires, and don't take any Focus Limitation at all on the reserve (or perhaps with the GM's permission just take the smallest Limitation for the reserve). There's no rule that says all slots in a Framework have to be the same type of Focus.
