Thank you both for your ideas! Your suggestions already have me thinking in different ways about how to go about this character. This is great I think the inspiration for the character came from Halo's Cortana. I have pointed out the similarities to characters from Voyager and Red Dwarf to him when we began talking about his character and he denied everything!

Hello! I would like to preface that I am new to the HERO system. I have read the books, multiple times, and I have a long way to master this amazing system. This is my first post and I hope I do not offend or post this in the incorrect place. Now, I need help with a unique character build. I am beginning a sci-fi campaign soon where my players are heroic builds with 225 points and 50 in complications. One player wants to be a realistic hologram that can interact with the physical world. We used Desolidification as a constant power with other advantages and limitations, but I keep thinking there is a better way. I attached the character sheet we made in hopes that someone may be willing to steer us in a better direction. Here are some of the character details. He wants to be a realistic hologram that is projected from a badge that he is wearing on his arm. He can interact with the physical world and only has strength 3. Since the projection emits from the badge on his arm he is unable to pass through walls or the like. The character is difficult to hit because damage only affects the badge/hologram projector. If the badge is struck he will take damage along with becoming stunned and/or losing the ability to interact with the physical world for a short period (2-3 phases). If the badge is destroyed he is lost forever. Finally, the projector needs to be charged daily, and he will suffer negative affects after a day with no charge. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! H.O.M.O.N.C.U.L.O.S mark III.HTML

Re: Build This Power I have a player that wants to be able to create devices with whatever he can find in his surroundings. Very Macgyverish. It would take time to collect resource and also construct a useful device. Plus whatever it ends up being may not be fantastically useful, since it is built from random parts. Currently we have it built as Impromptu Engineering: Cosmetic Transform 7d6+1 (surrounding environment into useful devices), Reduced Endurance (0 END; +1/2) (33 Active Points); Extra Time (1 Minute, -1 1/2), 4 Charges (-1), Concentration (0 DCV; -1/2), Restrainable (-1/2), Required Hands Two-Handed (-1/2), Gestures (Requires both hands; -1/2), Requires A Roll (SS roll; -1/4), Conditional Power Power does not work in Uncommon Circumstances (Must have stuff to work with; -1/4), Perceivable (-1/4)
