MAGGIE MAY

 

Now you jolly sailor lads, come listen to my tale,

I'm sure you will have cause to pity me,

I was a damned young fool in the port of Liverpool,

When I called there on my first port home from sea.

 

cho: Oh Maggie, Maggie May

They have taken her away

To slave upon Van Dieman's cruel shore.

Oh, you robbed so many whalers, and dosed so many sailors

But you'll never cruise 'round Peter Street no more.

 

I was staying at the Home, from a voyage to Sierre Leone,

And two-pound-ten a month was all my pay,

As I jingled with my tin, I was easy taken in,

By a little girl up there called Maggie May.

 

cho:

Oh. I'll never forget the day when I first met Maggie May,

She was standing on a corner at Canning Place,

In a full-sized crin-o-line, like a frigate of the line,

And as she saw I was a sailor I gave chase.

 

She gave me a saucy nod, and I, like a farmer's clod,

Let her take me line abreast in tow,

And under all plain sail, we ran before the gale

And to the Crow's Nest Tavern we did go

 

Next morning when I woke, I found that I was broke,

No shoes or shirt or trousers could I find,

When I asked her where they were, she answers "My dear sir,

They're down in Lewis' pawnshop number nine."

 

So to Lewis' I did go, but no clothing could I find,

And the policeman took that wicked girl away,

And the judge he guilty found her, of robbing a homeward-bounder,

And now she's doing time in Botany Bay.

 

She was chained and sent away from Liverpool one day,

The lads all cheered as she sailed down the bay,

And every sailor lad, he only was too glad

They'd sent that old whore out to Botany Bay.

 

 

 

Maggie May, huh? Is her boyfriend Rod Stewart?

 

That's a good write-up, Beast. Repped.

Re: Ghost Cat

 

The only alarm I get is the leaping and the passing strike. This will do 15 d6 damage on a hit, which compares to all the rest of the writeup,seems way above the average. If you're ok with this fine, but if this was being presented to me I'd ask for the passing strike to be removed. "I'd only do it as a last resort.." doesn't cut it with me. I've been burned by players before who used that argument.

 

If she is to be an NPC then fine, you control it.

Re: Ghost Cat

 

I would not class is as a last strike type of attack but it is not a first strike either

using it sets the character to be martial thrown

have a barrier or wall set in front to block or disrupt her attack

if she did a grab and then used the target as a battering ram or they where dazed she could get up to 20D6+1 attack26d6+1 if she pushed and haymakered it

 

the character is being built for a Suicide Squad type game

Re: Ghost Cat

 

there's no point distinction between a passing strike

and a full move strike that places the character next to the target like flying tackle.

 

Passing strike has the added bonus of being no where near the target at the end of the phase(dexterity initiative)

 

 

 

perhaps martial full move attacks should start with move by and move through as the base attack construct

incurring the feedback damage an penalties of those maneuvers

Re: Ghost Cat

 

Talking purely objectively: he DEX is in a weird place. A 27 give the same CV, but still give you a 14- on DEX skills, or a 29 would give you a better CV. EGO is in an incredibly odd place too, it gives you absolutely nothing. An 11 would give you the same ECV and a 14 would give a better CV. You have no EGO related skills so I'm not sure why you'd put it there. If the extra 2 points you'd get vs Mind Control is your concern, drop your EGO to 11 use one of the 4 points you saved to buy Mental Defense (giving you 3 points of Mental Defense) and you're better off and still saved 3 points.

 

 

There isn't really any reason to have position shift on two movement powers (and not really sure what the SFX of it would be on the running anyway). The passing strike has already been mentioned as going well beyond what appears to be the campaign norm.

 

If I were GM, there is no way this character would fly. You've spent a grand total of 2 points on non-combat flavor skills (Navigation). Just looking at the name of the character I KNEW there would be a multipower with a limitation that rarely limited, and sure enough there were two limits on it that are rarely limiting (I mean really how limiting is restrainable movement powers? You can't use them while restrained anyway). As a GM I would say it's an extremely min/max'ed generic character with absolutely no soul.

Re: Ghost Cat

 

your missing out on the skill and breakout rolls

 

position shift is the getting back on ones feet after getting knocked down

this character is quick at doing just that

 

the character is a construct/golem,becoming human(think Pinnocio)is part of the journey

I get the break outs, but you have no EGO based skills, so that's a complete waste of points, and for DEX you're spending 4 points to go from a 14- to a 15- which IMO just isn't worth it.

 

That's not even the biggest issue, my biggest issues, from a rules stand point, is you've put restrainable on movement powers. Sure it means you can't use your movement powers when you're entangled and grabbed, but then again, who can? Restrainable doesn't limit you at all.
