What is it Unified with? Lucius Alexander Unified with a palindromedary
-
You don't have to PAY points to look like Lynda Carter. You can take that as Complications. Distinctive Features: Looks like Lynda Carter (Easily Concealed; Noticed and Recognizable; Detectable By Commonly-Used Senses) -5 Hunted: Fans of Lynda Carter Frequently (Less Pow; Mildly Punish -pester for autographs, etc) -5 Social Complication: Mistaken Identity - Looks like Lynda Carter Frequently, Minor -10 Lucius Alexander Looks like a palindromedary

1 - Figure out which among these are most useful/desireable from the point of a view of the chaos bomb thrower. I'm thinking probably the Flash, Blast, and Entangle. 2 - Calculate the costs of these. 3 - Take the two most expensive of useful powers and buy them, Linked, with Area Effect 4 - Apply a Limitation (Lockout?) to both linked powers that any given target in the area only gets hit with one ability at most 5 - Apply No Conscious Control to both linked powers at the -1 level 6 - Apply a Major Side Effects Limitation to both linked powers, with the alternate effects defined as Side Effects ("effect the environment" modifier) Lucius Alexander Side Effects: may see palindromedaries

Hey, I remember the Goodies! I don't remember what they have to do with colossal kittens, though.... Lucius Alexander Telling the palindromedary about the episode where the building they were in was encased in concrete...

Not at all your fault. Nor is this the first time this has happened. Lucius Alexander The palindromedary says that's probably enough said on that subject.

The closest thing we have to what you're looking for is the "Usable as ________" Advantage for movement powers that allows one kind of movement to be used as another. If you want to expand the idea so that any one power can be used as any other power, I'm thinking that's a +1 Advantage - and if you have six different possible effects you're looking at applying the Advantage FIVE times. Unless you use "Variable Advantage" I suppose..... Lucius Alexander Variable Palindromedary Tagline

Wraith, because the word meant a ghost or specter from the first time it appeared in English. Wight actually means a person or entity and it's only because so many people first encountered the word in Tolkien's construction "barrow wight" (meaning "mound person") that it became associated with the undead.

Nor is there much point to anyone interacting with you at all if you are going to look right at words you actually said and deny having ever said them. Lucius Alexander Feed it to a palindromedary

Lamia looks like a lot more fun Satyr vs Bone Devil Lucius Alexander The palindromedary warns Lucius, no matter how it looks, don't get nasty with that lamia

I might let him attack a dragon that way once, but I don't know if I'd let him make a Hobbit of it. Lucius Alexander And a polymorphed palindromedary
-
It's a lot like Pluto. Lots of people want to call Pluto a planet, but the problem is that if we do, there are numerous other bodies in the solar system that should be called planets. If COMeliness is a characteristic, I can think of at least a hundred other characteristics that deserve inclusion just as much. Lucius Alexander The palindromedary does not want to see a game with one hundred and seventeen characteristics
-
Does that apply if the bite is effectively simultaneous with the grab? Lucius Alexander How does this palindromedary tagline grab you?

Why My Love Life Sucks: The February 2019 Superdraft
Lucius replied to Doc Shadow's topic in Non-Gaming Discussion
No, but I'm thinking of drafting Jonathan Winters Lucius Alexander And a palindromedary for all seasons -
Is it fair to use it in conjunction with something that DOES work and then argue that because the conjunction works, all elements of the conjunction must work? Or is it more fair to examine the conjunction and ask which elements are actually doing the work? Lucius Alexander If this post works, how much credit should the palindromedary in the tagline get?

black phosphorus may be flaky, but at least it's not a pest. Much ado about a little chemistry: Making a mountain out of a mole, vs tin pest in a teapot. Lucius Alexander Making a tagline out of a palindromedary

Because STR DEX CON INT EGO PRE OCV DCV OMCV DMCV SPD PD ED RED END BOD STUN Do you want to explain to a non-Hero player that Hero has seventeen characteristics and you think that's NOT ENOUGH? It's my own opinion that Hero would benefit from FEWER characteristics, not more. Lucius Alexander The palindromedary goes and buys some Striking Appearance
-
You seem of the opinion that using Figured Characteristics is "simple" and not using them is "complex." I note that this is not a universal opinion. Lucius Alexander I am of the opinion that every tagline of mine should include at least one palindromedary. This is probably not a universal opinion but I happen not to care.
-
If that really happened, SOMEONE needs to explain it! Lucius Alexander The palindromedary's not buying it
