I believe they limited themselves to White and Black, but I do remember sometimes they replace one color with red in some sets. But while I did plan on using the chest authentic with this alter GENOCIDE, I decided to only let the Red King come through. Of course this is my idea. Your mileage may vary.

Sounds like she's a good fit.

Well Deen, any updates? Are the other players enjoying this?

Well yes. But I'm more an idea guy then the actual write up guy. I can see Red King causing havoc all by his lonesome. He finds and fights powerful mutants till first blood, trying to infect as many of them that he can (including player character mutants of course). Then cause a basic overload of a mutant's powers at a critical time. Like when he can least risk hurting someone. If the mutant doesn't have powers which can be overloaded, he will turn off powers at critical times (like flight when he is flying, or force field when being attacked). If the hero dies...ok. if he doesn't, he injected doubt into the heroes lives. Eventually he will try to get close to Kinematik's crew and infect them.

Been talking to Gauntlet (writer of the IHA book) and I got a few more brain storms. Red King: Another castaway from Kinematik's world, he was one of the three leaders of GENOCIDE from his world (which of course are more successful then the GENOCIDE of this world). He is basically a power armor guy, except his armor is actually made up of nanomachines. The machines provide him with all sorts of weapons he would need. His ace in the hole is his Mutant Devistation Virus. Actually more nanomachines injected into a mutant's body, it allows him to control a mutant's powers from out front under him (basically Mind Control Based In CON, NND (having altered DNA), Limited Control (power activation and control only). Basically once hit with this virus, the Red King decides if the power activates or not, and at what power and the target. Note: He also has a Mind Scan only usable to find victims of the virus and to use the mind control power (which us also based in CON).

I remember a group within the UW Gamers group trying to develope a universal RPG of there own, and one of the campaigns was SLED (short for Super Law Enforcement Division). Basically cops with super powers. I never played in ot, but I think your standard police procedure television show with a special effects budget. Might of been inspired by Powers, but the main characters have superpowers instead of policing them.

Remember the Champions IP was picked up and bought outright as a cheap and quick replacement when Marvel fell through. So, even if they are not doing anything major with it, they are not really going to let others buy it back for HERO.

Sorry. I actually forgotten they made it into a book. Maybe the articles were Zombie Hero?

I know there was a series of Digital Hero articals, but should we have an "APPOPOLIPS Hero" book?

My favorite Apocalypse is the WITCH Mansterial Virus. It's a virus which mutates all men, making them unable to create sperm. (The name Mansterial comes from man and sterial) It affects a lot of people, doesn't cause a cataclysmic event, but threatens to make life unlivable in a generation. It doesn't affect women at all, but without men's sperm, how can the next generation be created?

Super Doctor And Mario Brothers

Doctor Destroyer and Grond are extremely dangerous, but even more dangerous is that one villain you don't know anything about and you don't know what they can do.

Well, to make a non-reflective object reflective would be a Transform effect...

It is all about what you actually want ot to do. Like anything else, using a mirror to do things is a special effect for powers. Everything could be from "what mirrors can do", but some of that can easily be "what I learned I can do with mirrors".

Sounds like you would just LOVE Mouse from Ranma 1/2. He is one character who shouldn't have a Focus limitation at all, but a Variable Special Effects advantage, a "Can Be Disarmed" limitation (-1/4 at most), and maybe a zero point "Subject To Running Out In Moments Of Funny" (-0). Optionally it could be an excuse for a Variable Power Pool as a "Hidden Weapons And Tools (Kept Inside Robe Till Needed)" Pool.

I'm reminded of two beings. The Flash villain the Mirror Master, and the Jojo stand Man In The Mirror (changed to Mirror Man outside Japan). Both have the ability to go through the Mirror Dimension at will (with Man In The Mirror able to drag people unwillingly into mirrors, idealistucly without their stands also). But that falls under "other powers not asked for in the original post".

That would be up to Mark, but I say it depends on the server. Some take their "kabuki stage ninja" outfits more seriously and keep quiet unless they have to talk. Others you just can't shut up.

The hand gag is borderline kinky, which probably means that teenagers and underage will not have the token honored out of safety and concent.

The thing about the Light Finger Lady is akin to Milwaukee's own theam bar The Safehouse (which is a spy theam bar/restaurant). I'll put up a link to it when I can. The link: https://www.safe-house.com/

One of the more intresting things about the way the Light Finger Lady gives out free drink tokens. The servers usually reverse pick pocket them to the target. There is a sign somewhere which advises that the staff will use this skill to pass on information on specials and free drink tokens (usually given to drunks to say 'you had enough, but please come back').

On the walls of the Light Finger Lady are posters for various movie, television shows, and plays related with the thieving world. Also cover replicas of various books where the main character is a thief (Lupin, Fafure And The Grey Mouser, etc...). There is also some mementos from GRAB members (and possibly from Carmen Santiago also).

True, but it has nothing to do with the RPG Paranoia. Unless Tella O'Malley did a cover of this song.

Doctor Maubus (sp!), The Gambler also comes to mind. A Jewish crimelord who pretends to be a humble gambler in order to lead people into temptation and self destruction. Svengali is another coded Jewish / Russian no do well, a dirty man with strong hypnotic powers and a lust for women.

Can't wait for Gaslight. I just wish Lupin (the 1st) was among the writ ups, but I'm sure there is a Gentleman Theth template which can be jerryrigged into a decent Lupin.

I believe the suplilment Horror Hero for 4ed had Sanity rules. It also was the first place to see Spirit rules.
