JmOz Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 Many years ago I had an idea for a Super Team. 100 members, divided into different cities. Time goes on, decided to make a new one. Meet Quark. Quark is a scientist who figured out how to control a type of radiation that would allow him to change sizes, building a battle suit...well here he is, tell me what you think of the build Quark VAL CHA Cost Roll Notes 15 STR 5 12- / 18- HTH Damage 3d6/9d6 END [1/2] 15 DEX 10 12- / 14- 15 CON 5 12- 23 INT 13 14- PER Roll 14- 13 EGO 3 12- 20 PRE 10 13- PRE Attack: 4d6 7 OCV 20 7 DCV 20 3 OMCV 0 6 DMCV 9 4 SPD 20 Phases: 3, 6, 9, 12/2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 9 PD 3 9/24 PD (0/15 rPD) 5 ED 3 5/24 ED (0/15 rED) 30 REC 6 115 END 4 15 BODY 5 40 STUN 10 Movement Cost Meters Notes RUNNING 3 15m/30m END [1] SWIMMING 0 4m/8m END [1] LEAPING 0 4m 4m forward, 2m upward FLIGHT 25m/100m Characteristics Total: 149 Cost Powers Centurian Equipment - END= 4 1) Cent Comm System: Mind Link , One Specific Mind, Number of Minds (x2) (10 Active Points); Only With Others Who Have Mind Link (-1), Sense Affected As More Than One Sense Sight, Hearing, Radio, not mental (-1/2), IIF (-1/4) - END=0 Cyberkinesis, all slots Custom Modifier (Only while operating Tech, Affected by Mental Sense affecting Powers; -1/2) - END= 11 1) +8 DEX (16 Active Points); Custom Modifier (Only while operating Tech, Affected by Mental Sense affecting Powers; -1/2) - END= 13 2) +2 SPD (20 Active Points); Custom Modifier (Only while operating Tech, Affected by Mental Sense affecting Powers; -1/2) - END= 10 3) +3 OCV (15 Active Points); Custom Modifier (Only while operating Tech, Affected by Mental Sense affecting Powers; -1/2) - END= 10 4) +3 DCV (15 Active Points); Custom Modifier (Only while operating Tech, Affected by Mental Sense affecting Powers; -1/2) - END= QUARK Battlesuit, all slots OIF (-1/2) - END= 10 1) Resistant Protection (5 PD/5 ED) (15 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END=0 3 2) Synthtech Battlesuit: Life Support (Safe in High Pressure; Safe in Intense Cold; Safe in Intense Heat) (5 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END=0 10 3) +75 END (15 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END= 10 4) +20 REC (20 Active Points); END Only (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END= 6 5) High Range Radio Perception (Radio Group) (12 Active Points); Sense Affected As More Than One Sense [very common Sense] (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END=0 10 6) Radar (Radio Group), Increased Arc Of Perception (360 Degrees) (20 Active Points); Sense Affected As More Than One Sense [very common Sense] (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END=0 3 7) Infrared Perception (Sight Group) (5 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END=0 3 ?

archer Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 I’m not used to 6e write-ups but my first impression was that the CON is a little low. I would like to ask about the “only while operating tech” limitations. Are you talking about only his suit? His suit plus cars, airplanes, drones and any Mecha he finds? His TV remote control, flashlight, smartphone, or video game? Not trying to be a smartass. I’m just thinking that’s a lot of combat related powers to be giving him if it activates off of trivial tech which is easily accessible from any random civilian. So I’m wondering where you see the boundaries of the power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JmOz Posted July 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 Con was low, modified it so he is at 20 now. Only while operating tech is to represent his natural ability with tech, yes basically anything With a computer (including the suit). Note that it is only part of a -1/2 lim that includes being flashed or darkness to mental powers. This is a common campaign limitation. Note that it would have to be logical for it to apply: he can use his cell phone on speed 6, but could not move that fast just because he is talking on it. Defiantly applies while in his suit, which would allow it to apply to more common applications Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JmOz Posted July 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Some minor changes Talking about his powers: They come from a special battle-suit that manipulates the QUARK field. In play he can activate 4 minor powers, 2 Major powers, or 1 major and 2 minor. He has three basic modes When he goes for full Brick mode he has a : Str 75, 35 def, 20rDef. While Shunk he tends to use Flight, Blaster, Shrinking (DCV 20). If he is normal size he will normaly have Str, Force Field, and a blaster ready (or flight instead of Str) Quark VAL CHA Cost Roll Notes 15 STR 5 12- HTH Damage 3d6 END [1] 15 DEX 10 12- / 14- 15 CON 5 12- / 13- 23 INT 13 14- PER Roll 14- 13 EGO 3 12- 20 PRE 10 13- PRE Attack: 4d6 5 OCV 10 5 DCV 10 3 OMCV 0 6 DMCV 9 4 SPD 20 Phases: 3, 6, 9, 12/2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 5 PD 3 5/15 PD (0/10 rPD) 5 ED 3 5/15 ED (0/10 rED) 5 REC 1 25 END 1 15 BODY 5 50 STUN 15 Movement Cost Meters Notes RUNNING 3 15m/30m END [1] SWIMMING 0 4m/8m END [1] LEAPING 0 4m 4m forward, 2m upward FLIGHT 25m/100m Characteristics Total: 126 Cost Powers Centurion Equipment - END= 4 1) Cent Comm System: Mind Link , One Specific Mind, Number of Minds (x2) (10 Active Points); Only With Others Who Have Mind Link (-1), Sense Affected As More Than One Sense Sight, Hearing, Radio, not mental (-1/2), IIF (-1/4) - END=0 Cyberkinesis, all slots Only when using tech (-1/4), Affected by mental sense affecting powers (-1/4) - END= 11 1) +8 DEX (16 Active Points); Only when using tech (-1/4), Affected by mental sense affecting powers (-1/4) - END= 13 2) +2 SPD (20 Active Points); Only when using tech (-1/4), Affected by mental sense affecting powers (-1/4) - END= 17 3) +5 OCV (25 Active Points); Only when using tech (-1/4), Affected by mental sense affecting powers (-1/4) - END= 17 4) +5 DCV (25 Active Points); Only when using tech (-1/4), Affected by mental sense affecting powers (-1/4) - END= QUARK Battlesuit, all slots OIF (-1/2) - END= 20 1) Resistant Protection (10 PD/10 ED) (30 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END=0 11 2) Synthtech Battlesuit: Life Support (Safe in High Pressure; Safe in High Radiation; Safe in Intense Cold; Safe in Intense Heat; Self-Contained Breathing) (17 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END=0 2 3) +5 CON (5 Active Points); Only to Resist Stunning (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END= 10 4) +75 END (15 Active Points); OIF (-1/2) - END= 10 5) +20 REC (20 Active Points); END Only (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END= 6 6) High Range Radio Perception (Radio Group) (12 Active Points); Sense Affected As More Than One Sense [very common Sense] (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END=0 10 7) Radar (Radio Group), Increased Arc Of Perception (360 Degrees) (20 Active Points); Sense Affected As More Than One Sense [very common Sense] (-1/2), OIF (-1/2) - END=0 3 ?

Crusher Bob Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 You can use the 'code' tag to ensure that you text is aligned. This makes things much easier to read. example: VAL CHA Cost 15 STR 5 15 DEX 10 15 CON 5 23 INT 13 13 EGO 3 20 PRE 10 What's the ' Affected by mental sense affecting powers (-1/4) ' limitation supposed to do? Is ' Only when using tech (-1/4) ' supposed to be 'things capable of electronic calculation'? Do you gain the bonus with an abacus, astrolabe, slide-rule (calculating technology)? Do you gain the bonus with a knife, written language, your glasses (all 'tools' are 'technology')? When doing character writeups, please include the approximate power level of the character in some easy to digest form. It looks like that character is made for a ~DC15, CV ~12 game. If so, you defenses seem to be very low. It looks like you have Def 25 and 20 CON. A standard DC 15 attack does 52.5 damage, does 27.5 through your 25 Def, stuns you, and then you get taken out in the next hit. You have no defense against DC15 mental attacks and DC15 presence attacks. I'm not sure you can get out of DC15 entangles without resorting to maximum growth, which you may not be able to use all the time. Your 5 points of flash defense isn't useful against DC15 flash attacks. All in all, it's a character that will give the GM headaches, because any mirror match that attacks your weaknesses auto-wins, so it's very hard to have you in a party. Here's one of my writeups on Champions character creation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JmOz Posted July 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 His defense is either a 20 DCV (when Shrunk) or up to 35 When grown guidelines is DC 12-15, CV 10-15 (note he is way above this when shrunk), Def 30--40 (he is below this when shrunk, but uber high dcv) The affected by sense limitation indicates that if he is mental flash or mental darkness he looses those stats I think we all know what tech means, with specifics decided by the GM, it means that it has to be fairly high tech (He has the ability to "talk" to computers so is able to be more responsive when controlling items that are powered by them. Most vehicles from the last couple decades, computers, etc...) good point on Mental Defense (Campaign rules actually gives him 2, but he should up it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
