    Re: Creating a prophecy

     

    s.

     

    During the War of the Hundred, when the lands of Gaul and Albion do war,

     

     

    The reference to Gaul and Albion I left in there because I wanted to obscure when the War of the Hundred took place. In this case I'm referring to France (Gaul) and Britain (Albion) warring. Since the Fae are so danged old, I felt they'd be more likely to use names for countries they're more familiar with.

    .

     

     

    The name Albion is a romantised name for Britain, 700 years ago it was just plain old England. 1306 is sorta Braveheart time in northern england/scotland, to put it in perspective.

     

    Gaul as far as I know was the Roman name for wetern Europe, back in old 1306 it was just plain old France, albeit with ducal provinces - Noramndy, Brittany, Picardy etc.

     

    Sorry to be picky and all.

    Hmm, maybe her Rapid Physical Therapy is an ability that Pei Mei taught her? Sorta mind over matter? Healing/Regeneration with costs End & only when concentrating, O DCV?

    There's a d20-friendly deckplan of Serenity which is easily found via Google. There's also a hard-core accurate version of Serenity which can be found on fireflyfans.net (go to Blue Sun Room, Graphics, look for stuff by gaidheal).

     

    I've pretty much talked myself into running Firefly HERO next Gen Con, so I'm going to be writing up the characters and will probably post them here for comment.

     

    Takes a lot of scrolling to find the deck plans, so here's some links :

    Well, I'll soon see for myself - I've just ordered Millenium city. I kinda got the feeling that he's capable of handing Darkduck his butt! Question is, how does he compare to everyones favourite Seeker?

    Hey guys

     

    Perusing the Yengtao thread has led me to wonder what sort of stats Nightwind has - I imagine he's a pretty kick-ass MA. Where can I find his write up?

     

    Thanks

    I havent really worked out Bullet Time yet. Im thinking it can easily be achieved with both Extra Actions for the most part, with a beefed up Dodge Action added to replicate the Rooftop Bullet Dodge scene.

    end Quote.

     

    Having watched the recent Matrix2 trailers I spent a lot of time thinking about how to emulate Bullet time in Hero.

    I came to this conclusion:

     

    Bullet-time is not a power

    Bullet-time in a Special Effect

     

    All bullet time is, is us the viewer watching someone with high Dex/Spd/CSL make all the right moves.To try and build it as a power could lead to nothing more than a Dex/Spd/CSL race between your players.

     

    Might I suggest that you encourage your players to think of specific bullet time moments on the fly, with the added bonus of extra EXP for particularly impressive or distinctive moves.

    After all, in the Matrix and CTHD, not every fight scene was maxed up, only the important ones.

     

    My two pennies worth.

    I read somewhere that there was a huge rise in the population of Elvis impersonators in the 90's; if that increase continued at that rate and unchecked, then by something like 2015 the entire population of the world would be Elvis impersonators.

     

    Can't wait to get the shades and rhinestone suit.........

    shopping.....

     

    Yo dude!

    When you get to London, try

     

    here:http://www.leisuregames.com/

     

    its where I get all my stuff. I find it quite funny that I'm sat here 5 - 6000 miles from the USA yet have had no problem getting hold of Hero books, and on these boards people all over the US seem to be complaining that they can't find Hero stuff anywhere!

     

    Good Luck
