Re: Psidestep: an Intradimensional Summoner of Experience Points

of course !

thankee

Re: Psidestep: an Intradimensional Summoner of Experience Points

I totally love the concept !

May I use it with your approval in my campaign settings please ?

My players and me had a good laugh lately, and it gaves me a simple but funny idea.

As a Gamemistress of champions, I am known to be pretty muc "a rare thing", and we discussed about how to "numerize" oursleves as Superpowered characters.

And my players said in fact I was not a superheroine, but rather an evil Mastermind that disguise and fools people thinking i'm a superheroine.

I find the idea kinda inspirationnal (does that word exist btw ?).

So to parody myself and then you all, I propose you this simple challenge.

I describe myself as my players did (And I swear I'll get revenge on some words - winks), and you get to build up a superpowered evil ME as a character. A 450 to 800 points built max, including the classical stuff for a superpowered campaign.

So there is what have been told about me (yeah, I 'll cheat a bit, adding some things I hope I am too )

- Imaginative, twisted, evil, michevious, mesmerizing, seductive, tough, and cheaty ... (damn players)

- mind control, illusion, empathic powers

- ability to summon tons of mobs and shit to annoy the players

- ability to scheme complex plans, so complex in fact that sometimes I get lost myself into them .. *grumbles*.

- ability to be overwhelmingly coherent and logic

- Been a girl, who has end point of a conversation adding that to been the gamemistress that gives xps...(again damn players)

- and of course, no, I'm not all that bitchy ! they are all lying ! you do trust me don't you ? *goldeneyes*

So if anybody is up to try and got my wrath...errr building

Re: Hyborean Dancing Girls

Read it all.

Keeping in mind for the evil trick I look to do to my players *winks*

Funny as always.

Re: Bimbo style Martial Art

Thank you everyone !

A good bunch of original ideas, which will be helpful !

knowing my players won't read it, I tend to make them have a short scenario in a crossover with the Superbabes RPG universe *winks*

Probably even Switching the World, turning men into women and the reversal hehe

Would be fun

Re: Bimbo style Martial Art

hehehe, it's more some gymnastic martial art.

But bood point to the fingernails rip; how would you build it ?

Re: Bimbo style Martial Art

Pretty much the same things there were set as powers in Brick House charcter build, but yep, that the kind of things I'm looking for

Anybodyelse ?

Hi folks !

Few months after Lucius, the Palindromedary, Tasha and much people helped me build the "Brick House" character (and thnaks again for that !), I would like to dig one of her abilities :

The Bimbo styled martial art :

I know there were already some proposals, but could you please help me to build a comical thematic style about it ?

Re: Super Heroic Behavior

Hey guys !

I read it all, and tough the original post of PJ was a call for help, I can't help but think that in fact he's seeking aknowledgement to numerize some bad Gamemastering habits.

Let me explain.

I'm a french Gamemistress of Champions since 2003, and in France we don't have the same culture. And it is important to know that to understand why playing Champions is so difficult in France.

Culture of the Hero doesn't exist here. Heroes are making people mock or smile. Superheroes that run in tight spandex suits even more.

The few able to understand that subculture are all geeks that grew up reading comics. I was one. I read them among classical things.

But when I read all that was posted, I see good ideas but badly used.

Code vs Killing is a classical HELP and not a disadvantage for players to me.

If you can't kill criminal, then you are moral.

Especially if you have superpowers.

"With great powers come great responsibilities"

Trying to translate all kind of crime into a disadvantages is two things for me :

- first it shows the GM is insecure with his team of player, and the control he has on it.

- second it encourage players to optimize character, and play against the GM instead of playing with him/her. And knowing me as I know myself, you won't play AGAINST me. You'll loose, so I'll... hehe

As to get advices on how to rp a superhero, well, it's kinda easy in fact. Try to be as moral as possible, and when you are comfy with it, try to add some "grey into your bright white colorful set of mind".

Opale,

Back to next game session preparation.

Re: HERO System Martial Arts

I have a question.

I see the book on my shop. But the price is too expensive. It costs 28,60€. ( for a $29,99's book !! )

For this huge price, I get HSMA at once.

In other side I can buy it from the website but when will it arrive ?

Bonjour PJ, apparemment tu as des questions concernant tout un tas de choses sur la game Hero Games.

Ca fait un petit moment que je ne me suis pas tenue au courant, mais je peux essayer de te renseigner, au cas où la langue anglaise soit une barrière.

Contactes moi

Re: Running for a Villain Team

Tradewind, reading yoru ideas, I suggest you read the Squadron Suprem comic, which include a huge parody of the JLA, making the Heroes looks like Villains as they brainwash criminals into good people..

And then who become the freedom heroes ? the lasting vilains that fight them.. *winks*

Re: The Third Wave

Well it's somehow a "Surge" campaign idea. It's an interesting setting, but except knowing why such waves happens, I tend to doubt that it would push yoru players to investigate alot. Or they have to be personally involved into it.

Re: Another challenge just the Damsel this time

No I didn't forgot to share with you the suggested building !

I was just nicely (thanks again Tasha) spoiled with tons of stuff for my CNM campaign and it responds by itself to some ofmy questions. (Like having a Dr Destoryer up to 1038 points consturction build, and his Helmet as a full autnom entity, which I don't like btw)

So, The telekinesist hero is still on the build, don't worry.

@the Palindromedary : noone will hurt an animal as long as I'm here (and Brickhouse too ! )

Re: A funny challenge for a Damsel Brick

I do prefer Marionnete to Dominatrix ctually Fun Character

Re: Where are all the write-ups of published (Marvel, DC, whatever) comic characters?

try "Matt champions page" on google too...

Re: Cold Case

yw !

Re: Cold Case

She could freeze the air inside someone chest, suffocating them, or even the liquid someone is drinking asit runs down his/her throat

She could create car explosions by freezing instantly a warm engine

You can think to Tracy Strauss from Heroes too, who has cold control power aswell as been able to transform herself into water.

Re: Anyone else hate Wolverine?

I liked the X-Men movies' date=' but I really wish they hadn't cut the Danger Room scene between Cyke and Wolvie. They claim they cut it for 'budget reasons'; I think they cut it because they didn't want to see the fanboi reaction to Cyclops teaching Wolverine a lesson in combat tactics.[/quote']

 

 

Never saw those scenes ! I'd love to ! Do you know where I could find them ?

Re: Anyone else hate Wolverine?

Wolverine is a complex character. I can tell I hate him, because he has lots of appeal, but I can't tell either I like him.

I'm speaking about the comic character of course, not he one incarnated by Hugh Jackman, who is a softened version (and sexier) of the super...

What I find interesting abot him, is the background and schemes behind. Imho, he's on the limit to be a vigilante and not a superhero. But it depends who wrote the scenarii so far, so each different author made up a different wolverine.

Re: A funny challenge for a Damsel Brick

Interesting way to see her. The transformation thing into an element could be indeed a way to build her too.

I have never used this Multiform power, as I am very unsure about it. I'd like to see at the complete building if you can make do so please

Re: Dr Destroyer helmet of power

For instance I uploaded some information in a private place about the characters to not go against intellectual property laws. For those who want to have a look, just pm me with your email adress, so I can share the folder with you.

Re: Back to Normal ?

of course yes !

Re: Champions and a quick Heroes system

Welcome to both the HERO System and the SuperHeroic genre !

And good luck with it because it's a TOTALLY different kind of RPG.

Lots of good advices to get here.

BTW, the shortcut to the HERO Rules were named the Sidekick book.

Try finding it, it will be what you need for a start

Re: Susano's Song-Based DC NPCs

Yes but it's a very good translation this time, because it it very "meaningful" in french.

Ty for the info.

Re: Dr Destroyer helmet of power

Yes, absolutely.

They are characters made using the Fuzion System and proposed in the Second Edtion of Champions: The New Millenium rulebook.

There were the character sheets using the HERO 5th Edition system. And they were "translated" into this system literally, so I guess they are pretty blunt.
