Call for Replacements

[Nechevo]

Re: Call for Replacements

 

Well, if you think we need a brick...

 

I'm not stuck on the being the son of Cpt Atom, although I think I've built what could be a fun character. However, I've tweaked him somewhat to make him tougher. I've actually been trying to keep the cheese down.

 

Changes include upping his strength and Con, and giving him an Absorb option to make him even stronger and tougher. In addition, his Damage Reduction has been raised both for PD and ED to 75% resistant.

 

I'm willing to take suggestions on construction here. Keep in mind 1) I'm still trying to get a feel for the boundaries, 2) I've never purposely built a brick before and 3) trying to stay with the concept without going over the top in cheese.

 

I'd be happy to take a shot at building a son of Colossus.

 

At the risk of stepping on the GM's toes...

 

75% Dam Reduction seems like overkill to me. Granted i'm not that experienced with Damage Reduction since my main group rarely uses them (15 years ago the GMs more or less brow beat us to not use them because it made figuring out balancing harder than it was worth) but from what i've seen even 25% really makes a character with good defenses hard to put down. I'm thinking a character with 30 PD/ED and 50% Dam Res. is the equivalent of a character with 50 PD/ED. With 75% Reduction... I'm not sure what that scales up to 70 PD/ED? Add the high REC to that and the guy will be nearly impossible to put down.

 

I'm also a bit concerned about the whole takes half of his body and goes nuclear thing.. Considering who we are up against, getting down to half our body on a regular basis isn't entirely out of the question.

 

Outside of that I like what I see... Although I think I preferred the First draft better (maybe take the first draft and make that one 45 STR, keep the variable FX EB since that's a nice touch...) Tough call since draft 1 is more of a pseudo brick than a true brick..

 

But then again since so many of us are pseudo bricks perhaps Valeria is enough of a brick anyways if one of the new PCs can soak a lot of damage.

 

Bit of a fair warning though compared to Valeria and Victor (and to a lesser extent Spider-Lad) Quantum is at best an amateur scientist. So if being a scientist is your character hook...

Re: Call for Replacements

 

if you are playing in a 75 active pt game

you include the pts in damage reduction with armor so you don't get the 30 ed and 50% damage reduction

you go more like this

75% damage reduction resistant cost 60 pts

10 armor cost 15 pts

would not worry about pd from strength unless it gets over 10 pts

I was going to comment on this as well but didn't wanna start another tangent. We do something similar to this in our game also. In our games (we also use a 75 AP cap), we only allow Defenses upto half the AP cap. For example, 37 PD/ 37 ED would be our max (though we don't count Resistance against the cap as KAs are not more expensive than nomal attacks but do equivalent damage). As 75% Damage Reduction is over 37 APs, we would not allow it. This also applies to Power Defense, Mental Defense, ect. in our game.

Damage Reduction actually becomes less beneficial the higher your defenses are. Consider a 12 DC average, range 10 DC - 15 DC, really powerful master villains with 18 DC game, for illustration:

 

Assume I have 30 PD/30 ED. A 10 DC attack gets 5 STUN through. 12 DC gets 12 STUN. 15 DC manages 22.5 STUN, while 18 DC gets 33 STUN through.

 

I buy 25% damage reduction, and that falls to 3.75, 9, 16.875 or 24.75. Buying +10 PD, +10 ED, resistant would reduce my damage by more at all levels, and significantly more at most levels, for the same 30 points.

 

I buy 50% and my damage falls to 2.5, 6, 11.25, 16.5. 20/20 Armor at the same cost is again much more effective for the same points.

 

I buy 75% and my damage falls to 1.25, 3, 5.625, 8.25. 40/40 Armor at the same cost means I never take any damage.

 

Damage Reduction effectively reduces the value of your defenses, since less damage that gets past defenses has an impact anyway. It would be much more useful to have 10 PD/ED and 50% damage reduction. That would materially reduce the damage taken from typical attacks. That saves me 12.5 STUN from a 10 DC attack, 16 from 12 DC, 21.25 from 15 DC and 26.5 from an 18 DC attack. But only at the highest levels of damage is it superior to +20/+20 Armor.

 

This is yet another area where AP comparison falls flat on its face. If you want to compare defenses to defenses + dam red, compare average damage that gets through. That's much more meaningful than AP.

Re: Call for Replacements

 

Or, another way to look at it, Damage Reduction lowers the value of your defenses.

 

If we assume I've already bought 50% DR, then it takes 2PD to prevent 1 point of damage actually getting through to my stun. If I've already bought 75% DR, then it takes 4PD to prevent the loss of one more stun.

 

In these parts, DR has always been popular with the mid defense, mid-con crowd, because its so useful for mitigating that one magical, high-rolled hit (Stun lotto, or just a good roll on an EV). DR can be a great way to survive the One Big Hit that so often KOs anything but a brick.

 

Bricks, OTOH, hereabouts, tend to just buy all the PD and ED the GM considers appropriate, rather than watering that PD and ED down with DR. Theyve got the massive con and stun reservse to shake off a single heavy hit, and get hit alot more, so dont want to face 'bleed through' constantly.

[Corven_Ren]

Re: Call for Replacements

 

Actually Nechevo is right 75% DR is a little extreme unless that would be your nly form of defense. I forgot Valeria str went up to 60 so I gues Nechevo is right is that practiaclly everyone is a demi-brick. I like the Quantum write up so keep him in the equation.

I'm taking way to long to get this done. By the time I get done writing it the slots will be filled. So here is what I have. The character is done, but the back ground is in a VERY unfinished state. If I had more time I would make it flow a little better and flush out what would really be said. Anyway, I think it will have to do for now.

Re: Call for Replacements

 

Back Ground

 

---------------------------------------

 

I was raided my mother, Jessica Jones, in Canada. My dad, Luke Cage, couldn't come around much because the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were always watching us trying to find him. When my Sister and I did get to see him it was always in some strange location and never for as long as I would have liked.

 

I didn't understand what was going on back then. I must have been to sheltered from what was going on in the would. Yea, se would tell me plenty of stories of what she knew of dads past and what they had done together. She would even try to explain what dad was trying to do for mutants everywhere. Didn't help much. They were just stories to me then, and I just wanted him with us.

 

Seconded year during high school it started to him me. I was starting to change. I was always stronger then the kids my age, but the difference was becoming freakish. It was fun at first, but one day I smashed in to the ball carrier. I didn’t think it was that hard but he went flying off the field and onto the track. He lived but had to be in traction for a long time. Kids avoided me after that; even most of my friends. I would see them whispering and all, but I didn’t have to put up with it long. The school ended up kicking me out. Mom said it as crap. She tried to fight it, but lost in the end. After all that, she decided to home school me. I think it was for the best. I was able to spend more time with her and I learned a little about being a detective.

 

So, as time went on, I learned more about what made mom and dad tick. It took me ages get a grip on it. In fact it wasn't till the last time I saw my dad that I truly started to see the big picture. He told me of the past crimes that had been done against weaker people or people that were just different. He didn't want that to happen again, and with the help of the Avenger, they would put and end to it.

 

A long time past without word form him. I was learning more and more about being a detective, but I keep thing about dad. I wanted to know if he was okay. I wanted to know how the fight was going. Most of all I just wanted to know my dad. Sitting around wasn’t getting me any were, and they say you learn by doing, so I told my mom I was going to move to New York

 

There were many long nights of talks and some of fights. She really didn’t want me to go. In the end she said that as long as I keep in contact with her she would be okay with it.

 

Man, things were tough down there. I tried to spend more time in the ghetto then any were else. I wanted to see some neighborhoods where dad started his Hero for Hire business. I saw crimes going on every day. None of them all that big during the day, but at night I could hear it was a different story. Gun shoots, sirens, something always going on.

 

I keep to my self as I walked along. I didn’t want to get anybody hurt and most of all I just wanted to stay out of trouble. Not one of my most noble of times, but it’s the truth. I started that all of the people down here were all the same, nothing good about the lot of them. I was planning on moving back up with my mom, but fortunately I didn’t. I had the chance to help some people out.

 

You see, I was going into a pawnshop one evening looking for some DVDs. Everything seemed to be just another day until some gang tugs came in. They started to harass the girl working the counter.

 

The boss came over, tried to smooth things over

Tugs wouldn’t let her alone

Boss man told’em to leave

They would not

He threatened to call the cops

They didn’t like the threat so, to teach him a lesson, they stabbed him. One started for the money the other was trying to drag the girl out.

 

I wouldn’t take it any more

They told me to mind my own business.

I didn’t

I took them down

Shop keeper and girl thankfully

Get a job at pawn store

Word got around

I started to do more jobs for people, mostly free

Take on the name avenger

Some lawyer got up set, said the name was already taken

Changed name to Arbiter, but most people still call me ____(original name)___

Got in the news a few times

Offered spot on the team

Took the offer because___________

Still take time out to help the small guy on the street

 

And that’s were I am now

Luke Cage was a criminal, once a drug dealer. In the eyes of SHIELD/UNTIL he is a small time super villain.

 

Or he may have done something to piss Until off in this universe I don't know.

I just would like for him to come up for some reason in the background. I didn't flesh Cage out in my timeline. Also one note the STR exceeds the starting point cap. 75 Max Active points please

Just a little info on this situation. Tony Stark died with no children. Amanda is the Chairman of the board of Stark Enterprises and her Daughter Aeryka is the Current President as well as being the new Iron Maiden. However if you want him to be Amanda's son that would be fine.

Tony was a drunk for so many years...how can one be sure he had no children?

[Doc Shadow]

Re: Call for Replacements

 

Wait a minute now. In your history thread Aeryka is the grand-daughter of Alan Scott and the new Green Lantern, not the daughter of Amanda Stark and the new Iron Maiden. Which one is it?

 

And I figured that Tony died without kids, so I figured Alex as a grand-nephew, the son of Amanda's brother, TJ, who had no interest in Stark Enterprises but went on to become a movie producer - probably with the help of his inheiritance from 'Uncle Tony'. I assumed Amanda didn't have kids either, since her last name never changed.

 

Just let me know what's what and I can make changes.

[Nechevo]

Re: Call for Replacements

 

I would like for the players who have submitted characters to post their character's hook.

 

What I mean by that is what is the hook, the thing, that makes you want to play your character? What aspects of the character really attract you to him/her? What's the hook that makes the character important to you?

 

For example, one of the hooks for my character is that he's Dr. Doom's son, with everything that entails. Victor was brought up as a noble, he's an aristocrat, a perfectionist that expects a lot of himself and those around him and is a bit arrogant. While at the same time he is trying to prove himself, and redeem the family name and to accomplish that he has to be the consummate hero.

Wait a minute now. In your history thread Aeryka is the grand-daughter of Alan Scott and the new Green Lantern, not the daughter of Amanda Stark and the new Iron Maiden. Which one is it?

 

And I figured that Tony died without kids, so I figured Alex as a grand-nephew, the son of Amanda's brother, TJ, who had no interest in Stark Enterprises but went on to become a movie producer - probably with the help of his inheiritance from 'Uncle Tony'. I assumed Amanda didn't have kids either, since her last name never changed.

 

Just let me know what's what and I can make changes.

 

 

One thing is that the campaign takes place 20 years after the time line ends. I have not flushed out those 20 years because of possible origins. Do to how I was working out one of the introductory story lines I game Amanda a daughter and named her Aeryka (a name I really like). After mulling over it we can work it as is though you will just be Aeryka's cousin.

Yes everyone please do this....while I am the GM I am letting the players pick the replacements. One they have decided, then I will talk to everyone about tweaking builds. Also your submissions are due no later than Labor Day.

That would make Amanda in her 60s at least.

 

No wonder Aeryka is Iron Maiden. I'll go to work and see what I can come up with. BTW how long has Aeryka been Iron Maiden and about how old is she? I'm wondering whether they should have a mentor/student relationship or a rivalry.
