Overkill

Here is an idea I have had...The Funkmaster! The character's abilities are based on the ability to harness his stench and sweat glands to revolting, heroic degrees based on a catastrophe when he agreed to be a test subject for subdermal/implantable deodorant and antiperspirant. It had the opposite effect and magnified the power 1000 fold. Ear-Watering Blast for Flash, Stinking Cloud for Darkness, Blast being his odor and sweat, the shield that he creates is a miasma of odor, Deflection, etc.

Thanks, Ayinde.

Where is the Find Weakness skill? I knew it was a Power in 5th Edition.

Wow, thanks a lot for that neat example! You've been a big help.

Thanks. Those look pretty well-rounded. Yikes, 100 Stun in 1 hit?! Not sure if I could get away with +4 stun multiplier with my friend next week, pretty sure the kibosh would be on that. He looks really closely at those exclamation abilities. Do you suggest using a weapon OIF/OAF multipower or stay away from that?

I'd like to build one but I don't really know how to go about it. What do you think are good Martial Arts skills to learn, how much Martial Damage Classes should be bought, how much should go to stats, what if any ranged abilities would you recommend and the like?

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains thanks a lot! sounds neat!

Just curious if anybody had any experience with powers like Replay and the like. Are they balanced or broken? Would you allow them as is or change them significantly? Some of them are pretty interesting, like Replay and Probability Fields.

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains Thanks for the idea of the Iron Cross. I like that. The German character created a Mad Scientist With A Heart of Gold who is also a Powered-Suit character. Good rivalry!

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains You don't think governments that allowed a world war to occur for 17 years would be incompetent or that nearly 2 decades of world war wouldn't be a crisis? I think you'd wind up with people that make Mussolini, Hitler and Stalin look like pikers if that ever happened.

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains Wouldn't a 17 year long World War make it even more likely for some sort of Fascistic backlash, especially against a League of Nations that has numerous Communist countries in it? I do like the idea of stretching World War I out but I don't really know how to get there. Also one of the things I am going to try to do with the characters going into the past is that they will be the catalyst that kicks off a robot/drone/superhero/"Super-Soldier" First World War. Maybe the League of Nations will form after that. Thanks for the good idea!

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains Yay!

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains 6th edition sir, thank you.

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains I realize that. I think Fascism would have happened regardless of World War 1, just as an anti-leftist/anti-Socialist thing in Italy and Spain. I am not getting entirely into the nitty gritty, it is just an excuse for some players, one of which is from Italy and the other is from Germany, to play Italian and Germany guys in that time period without negative baggage.

Re: Silver Age/1950s Style Villains Oh that would be a great help to me. I need a Powered-Suit Bad Guy Any type of Soviet/Japanese/Chinese villains A mentalist badguy for sure. Thanks!
