  3. Converting

    Re: Converting

     

    My rough and ready is basically the eyeball method, when it comes to D&D. Fantasy HERO just works out better, IMO, so I figure out the background/effect, nothing more.

     

    For example, if you want to do pre-built generation lists, I'd take 15 point for a race, and 40-50 for a basic "class." Go see the Fighter variants--the two I submitted are from Sword & Fist, and Masters of the Wild, respectively.

     

    It's so much easier just to do the concept, and not the mechanics...

    Zhu, translated into Mandrin, means "deep". In my world, she's defined as the second of the two most primal beings that appeared at the beginning. She is considered the source of all demons of that world, and has left her mark in the myriad punctures in the darkness that the mortals call 'Night.'

    Please note that what World of Darkness conversions out there is incomplete, and can do with a better write up. Right now, I'm just trying to set up a foundation for me to throw it up on the web, but I'm primarily focusing on the WW:tA series. One of the things that struck me as interesting is the resolution method--based on successes, which is easy to do in HERO as how well you did beyond the target number you rolled. I'm still fiddling with the wetwork on Skills/Talents/Knowledges, but given the flexability of the system, I'd have to adopt the same through fiddling with HD2. Bleah.

     

    At least COM can now play an important part, huh?

    CrashTest would defintly hunt down some of the "independent" ubers and convince them to try and help defeat them.

     

    See, I figure that the independents are a less priority compared to actual teams, in regards to the Protocols. Thus you'll have a lot of empty spots regarding some of the lesser-known ubers out there. :D

    Dwellers in the Underdark. The multi-eyed root of the starch truth.

     

    I weep at your attempt to chip the trut-ber our of our dirty hands in the garden of inconsitancy.

     

    Have mercy on our soil, for we have mulch to do and little lime to do it in.

     

    *gags at the gags he perpetrated*

  15. How would you (why the heck would you) build this power?

    Re: How would you (why the heck would you) build this power?

     

    Nah, it's no different than Captain Freespeech and his dimensional belly button that holds his gagets (and plenty of Mostess Crust-less Fruit Pies.) I'm not gonna even show you his picture, but he's a superheroic running gag elsewhere for us.

     

    The difference lies in the source of the gagets in question--I think it's best to build it as a kind of summons and use the base points to build the rest.

  16. more PRE related powers

    Re: more PRE related powers

     

    One of the thoughts going through my head while thinking of PRE powers lie within the context of my WW:tA conversion. More specifically, there is a Gift that a Rokea (wereshark) can learn, called Parting the School. The effect would be something like an Enviromental Movement: Crowd or Desolid (Only Against A Crowd) that works on a sucessful PRE roll.

     

    Wouldn't that be a nice power to have? Instantly dissapear through whatever press you'd like without using Invisibility. :D

    Perhaps it's better to play the Race Game in terms of what others see them, or how their culture plays off their usual strengths and weaknesses.

     

    For example... one could say that the Tiger-kin bears similarity to Elves in the sense that they are both noble, yet flighty or tempermental, due to their connection the element of Sky, associated with emotion control. (Their Gift is the ability to slightly alter one's emotional perception for a short while, like an aura.)

    Khronos would just sit on the nutcase until he gets a clue. Given that he's a growth brick... that'd do nicely. He can even attempt to "persuade" him by doing a little judicious minor magic on the guy's mind, to repell him from the ex-girlfriend. (Of course, if it's a mentalist... there's not much he can do in the first place. )
