Tom Cowan reacted to Hugh Neilson in Everyman is a World-Class Sprinter
In other words, edging into those maximum SPD and running values values reflects someone with rare genetic gifts related to sprinting engaging in intensive training to make the most of them - sounds a lot like an Olympic-level sprinter to me.
My first thought as well, but he's running less than a turn, so it could prevent multiple world-class times in rapid succession, but not a single sprint.

As the GM for this upcoming campaign, I agree wholeheartedly!
Thanks.

Play a character with a heroic personality in a game of heroic fantasy? That's just crazy talk!

If D&D players want to model for playing a paladin they should use the ethos of Captain America.

non-lethal AoE powers, be it entangles, mental attacks or others, may be of limited use till you need to safely remove the mind controlled crowd from the battle, the villain hiding in the crowd that is running away...

Mr Chiller: "OK, Ice cell for each. Line them up and spit them out one by one to the cops. Ah, may need some help with a few hundred tons of ice that I made."

POTENTIALLY slanderous? He called Milley a deviant and a traitor. There's nothing "potential" about that.
The other aspect is, well, gee, when actual government officials call for hangings, can anyone be surprised when this causes a rise in violent acts from those he's addressing? The "in a better society" isn't an excuse; quite the opposite, it's more incitement.
This is hate speech, pure and simple. It's prima facie grounds for impeachment, slander/defamation, and even criminal charges, IMO. Yeah, I know, only the lawsuit is possible, and even that's not likely, but that reflects the horrific state of the political system.
I agree this continues the alienation of any but the hardest of hard-core MAGAts, but we won't know whether this means anything until the election cycles start moving into full swing.

Tom Cowan got a reaction from Amorkca in Armor Piercing vs Penetrating
Here is a nice one for penetration. How long can you stand that 'imp' that can 'sing' polka music at 150 dB?
Mental Illusions 1d6, Invisible Power Effects (Invisible to Mental Group; +1/4), Penetrating (+1/2), Constant (+1/2), Cumulative (384 points; +2) (21 Active Points)
so evil, and cheep

What you're basically talking about is Hugh Neilson's infamous Margarita Man.

No more Florida, for one thing. Which mneans all the deranged Floridians have to go somewhere else. Uh oh!
Fortunately, this degree of ice melting and sea level rise is expected to take more than a c entury.

Could be an END Pool, or END Pools with the powers powered from the pool. Maybe with limits on the REC for the pool.
