I guess Laughton would be opening up an orphanage for crippled children and offering a free help line and homeless shelter on the side..... either that, or no difference what-so-ever. Kunduna: eeeek! run for your lives it's the destroyer of worlds. Allen, the living corpse: would be making his fortune dressing up as people's favorite enemy and letting them kill him.

#1 needs more stars on boots. Call him: The Star Spangled Shield #2 Needs one of those coolishly goof sideways ponytails off the side of his head. Maybe a ghetto-rapster beat background music, call him: Brutha Ankh. cue Barry White score..... who's the baddest cat around with that egyptian mystic sound? Brutha Ankh who's the man with the means to fry thug's brians clean? Brutha Ankh who's the dude the ladies adore, power oozing to the floor? Brutha Ankh! yeah baby, Brutha Ankh

1- Pulled the stats out of the EC. 2- Certainly as limiting as "not in intense magnetic fields" However, I took only -1/4 for both the OHID and the Meditative Trace, it's not supposed to come into play every game, but it is supposed to be there as a hook for the Big Bad to possibly use. Also finally got around to filling out the rest of the Disads. Dependence is there (was supposed to be there all along)3- that's the exact thing I was thinking when I put it in. Kunduna must conciously expend energy to reduce the damage taken. This limitation is actually quite bit further reaching that the value implys given that the defenses are assumed to be there all the time, when in fact, they are not. Kunduna would have to activate the DR when needed, either with a held action, or through an abort.As for "point savings tricks" I will grant she is efficient, but there are no spurious limitations on anything that are not within the concept I had in mind: Spiritually enlightened being empowered by meditative bliss and able to reach higher planes of existance at will. Your (Vanderbilt_Grad) arguement could easily expanded to both Dr. Destroyer and Takofanes: the big D has so many points to spend, why does he cheap out and slap OIF limitations on his armor? I would expect that at 2900 points he should just buy the powers raw and be done with it.I completely disagree. Character concept is more than a background or written description. It should also flow through the flavor of the powers and capabilities of a character. No matter how many points there are to build it, if the idea is that they can not be blasting psionic energy at the same time as maintaning an impenitrable barrier, then those powers should be in a multipower framework. Are you sure you're not jealous that you can't touch my efficiency-fu?

The start of the Great War limited their access into the high mountain ranges of western Asia from war torn Europe, and instead they chose a private caravan to circle through India via the China sea. Thus they embarked on a steamer bound for Tai pei in late 1914. The ocean voyage was apparently doomed, as the ship never arrived at its final destination. Wrecked in the China Sea, Amanda's parents managed to get themselves and her into Mongolia. Through a series of adventures, the Berrings managed to travel through much of rural Asia, visiting with many local mystics and followers of the Dalai Lama. There is still a great deal of uncertianty about the specifics of what exactly happened, but some how the Berrings managed to find the Temple of Temporal Enlightenment and activate a mystic Icon. The resulting explosion destroyed the temple, collapsed half a mountain, killed them, and somehow imbued Amanda with great mystical abilities as the persona Kunduna.Powers/Tactics: Campaign Use:

Kunduna has dropped to 7 speed. I did this so I could put back some of the deleted powers that I originally had thought of. Also I had accidentally put in Contortionist skill, so dropped it in favor of Persuasion. Like all supers with a big honking MP that has defensive and offensive powers in it, Kunduna may not be as "Mighty" as was originally postulated. Her design is such that she will be able to "tough" it out if she is combat aware, but can be surprised. And don't forget, her best attack is by far her Ego attack, she doesn't have to be all that close to battle for it to be effective.

Maybe another Viper's Nest first?

I took a gander at Assault's hunteds and figured that since he didn't have Taco on it, getting him to help with the lich would be harder than offering to help him with his common problem with the good doctor. Perhaps a bit of skill use would even out the "apparent rough" issues with Kunduna's powers of persuasion over Assault. Kunduna's amnesia is about her origin of powers and her original family life. Its only 5 points, and mostly a hook for future plot lines for the GM. After all she is 97 years old, 90 of them in her present form, it has to be a bit disturbing at times (I'm remembering Kirsten Dunst's character in _Interview with a Vampire_, only Kunduna is a force of good and not some undead blood sucking servant of the night, so not as psychotic). My thoughts on leadership: I purposefully, did not give Teamwork to Kunduna because there are going to be too many heavy hitters on the team. It should be a rotating or more likely situational basis. With powerful heros like this team, there shouldn't be a need for a dictator. Maybe a triumvarate? In any case since most of the action was going to be discussion based, there seemed to be a lot of opportunity for suggestions. Further, her powerset is designed to offer a lot of tactical options, many of them involving the use of others' recognition of their own capabilities and their ability to use her as a helper. I noticed some things that I need to redo a bit--the absorbtion wasn't set for one thing. I'll repost a final version later. Maybe we should all repost the final characters in another thread for reference if there are going to be polls for this. Kind of like a board wide pbem, where common consensus dictates actions--could be really cool, or very cumbersome.

As the molten slag and concrete rubble cools in the early evening, the bright red armor clad figure lowers the large tube-like contraption from his shoulder and glares intently at the heat glow before him. "Hmmm, I suppose I should have built in a temperature control--didn't think the heat would be that bad," he muses to himself aloud. Moving closer as he clips the device to his belt, Assault prods the thick tower of debris, until the winged helm--no make that winged _head_ rolls down and rocks at his feet. In the reddish glow a scrawled message can be seen scratched in the back of the metallic head, "Eat my balls Mechanon. Love Foxbat." Assault briefly ponders what to do next, when there is a distinctive rip in the time-space continuum behind him. He turns just in time to see the portal closing, revealing a glowing woman, hovering cross legged about four feet in the air. She seems to glow from within and smiles with a hidden knowledge. Her voice is a melodious contralto, equal to the radiant beauty she physically posesses, "Well done, Assault. But you should be aspiring to more than a high tech hunter gatherer. I will get to the point immediately: "You have unmatched skill with technology, and yet have made some powerful foes. I recognize mine own limitations, and can see that the sum of our parts is greater than the individual efforts combined. I will help you deal with Viper, and build up your self worth, you will in turn join me and assist me in dealing with Dr. Destoryer, and perhaps curb some of your baser habits." She smiles with the unwavering confidence of one who is seldom turned down. Light fairly sheds from her. Though the arguement is more compelling than it is sound, Assault is on the verge of agreement. Besides she certianly is nice to look at.

The team needs another female, and lacks a mage/mystic.

She tends to dress in loose fitting robes that do not restrict her movements. When her powers are manifest, Kunduna glows with varying stages of enlightened brillance, ranging from a pulsating aura to an atmospheric blast of columnar energy.Personality: Kunduna seeks to set others on the path of righteousness and enlightened glory. She has found the world to be a dark place, much in need of her powerQuote:This is not the time nor place for that.Background: Amanda Berring's parents were accomplished archeologists intent on discovery of the real Tibet. Knowing that their explorations would be remote, and lengthy, they chose to take their 7 year old daughter with them on their search for the Temple of Temporal enlightenment. The start of the Great War limited their access into the high mountain ranges of western Asia from war torn Europe, and instead they chose a private caravan to circle through India via the China sea. Thus they embarked on a steamer bound for Tai pei in late 1914. The ocean voyage was apparently doomed, as the ship never arrived at its final destination. Wrecked in the China Sea, Amanda's parents managed to get themselves and her into Mongolia. Through a series of adventures, the Berrings managed to travel through much of rural Asia, visiting with many local mystics and followers of the Dalai Lama. There is still a great deal of uncertianty about the specifics of what exactly happened, but some how the Berrings managed to find the Temple of Temporal Enlightenment and activate a mystic Icon. The resulting explosion destroyed the temple, collapsed half a mountain, killed them, and somehow imbued Amanda with great mystical abilities as the persona Kunduna.Powers/Tactics: Campaign Use:

I'm about half way through a mystic/mage character....

Forgive me for stepping on virtual toes, but I really liked the v9 you did Blue, but felt it needed some tweeks. Here's my photochop'd version of your art:

We've always used cardboard squares with an icon for the characters or other important things. Started with the Cardboard Heros from Jackson games, then added with our own stuff. Cereal boxes with paper (computer print out or xerox) glued on, then wrapped in clear packing tape make nice sturdy squares (or rectangles) that you can write on with vis-a-vis pens and can be sized for battlemat hexes.

That and the fact that you could put everyting into trying to take her down, miss and then end up swiss cheese as she shot you full of holes. Fortunately, I got better really fast.

Q: Are you sure this isn't Mr. Squarepants? A: Twelve cans of condensed milk, a pound of sawdust, three square pans, and 10 gallons of hi-test gasoline.

Typically, a speedster relies on "Not being hit" as the source of his ability to survive. This is usually through high DCV, and staying out of the main mix of combatants (move-by to someplace nearby but not there). This is also usually their downfall, as the opponents set up a trap for them to fall into (Flash trips over rubble on floor, Move-by Guy is painfully martial thrown, Entangle Lass wraps up Speed freak in her bands of suppression). For a change of pace, and to offer up a real challenge, don't do this. Your "speedster" may be fast, but he should be able to stick to his chosen field of battle. Have him able to take a punch, don't relie on him doing move-bys to get out of the area. Instead use a selection of powers that give him tactical advantages with out the "Not being hit" defense. The Tunneling useable as an attack is good, you can combine it with the Dex drain, and Entangle as he spins his victims into the ground. Give him Damage reduction and a large recovery to represent his high metabolism. He won't be one-shotted this way. Desolid with invisible effects is an interesting tactic when combined with a high speed. The heros can't tell when he is vibrating so fast he is out of phase, because he is always vibrating (has a blurry look Distinctive features). Combine this with a damage field: Numbing blast when he is hit, the vibrations transfer to the attacker. (too bad you can't combine it with a disarm manuever- Rachel takes a swing and Big Bad Fastball, her bat connects, then vibrates numbing her hand and she drops it.) Area Effect selective target is a great way to attack all the Heros at once (or all the customers in the Bank). The dragging TK area cone, allows him to concentrate on his victim while the other heros are tumbled along behind helplessly. Lastly, is he really all by himself? Maybe he moves so fast, it looks like there are more than one of him. Either Images: all senses, or maybe real Duplication.

It was suggested to me that I post the characters in a board readable format. (And after I go through the trouble of getting caught up on HeroDesigner, sheesh). So following Lemming's practice of double post padding for characters, and granting the request I had, here are the stats in readable form. Flames, comments, apathy; I don't really care, I did this for the exercise in HeroDesigner.

I thought the Distinctive looks: Immortal, only sensed by other immortal; was a cleaner way to do the recognition instead of Danger sense. I'm still looking though the rest, but it seems very thought out and complete. Have you played a campaign with these rules?
