Self-Adjusting Power Frameworks

[ShadowEater]

Can a Power Framework ‘automatically’ adjust itself to circumstances, or is some sort of Uncontrolled on the framework itself required to do so?

 

Examples: a touch that mutates people: written as an MP (aid to mutant powers, transform to temporarily grant powers to normal humans, a Summon to make mutant bugs and rats out of ordinarily harmless wildlife) which has the appropriate effect on a target whether or not you know if they have a mutation… IE: if you touch a mutant, the touch is an AID, if you touch a normal it is a Transform (the MP automatically adjusts as appropriate).

 

Example Two: A VPP of ‘self healing effects’ (Aids with ‘only to restore’, Dispels, Healings, Self-Transforms as appropriate) that starts to work on powers you are effected by even if you don’t identify them (IE: you are blinded and it automatically starts Healing the flash, or Dispelling the Darkness, or (whatever gets rid of mental powers) the Mental Illusions drug, or Transforms the Transformation: person to blind person away... even if you yourself don’t know the exact cause.)

That's something you need to work out with your GM; under the standard rules a character has to choose which Power Framework slot to use, it can't be chosen for him by outside circumstance. However, I suspect many GMs would be willing to work up something with No Conscious Control (possibly with the value reduced to -0, or even converted to a small Advantage) to do that -- there might even be a published example or two, but nothing springs to mind.

 

I suggest posting this as a "how to" on the Discussion board -- see what ideas Herodom Assembled has.
