I Had a Villain who's moniker was Super Villain! And his name was also John Smith...

I did roll 6 sixes on 6 sixsided dice once.
It was not for a damage roll in Hero. And it was the first roll of those dice out of the container. That might have been a influence.
The dice were attempting to fool you into a false sense of accomplishment??

Just some clarification here...
If MA gives you +10 STR for disarm (and any of the others) Shouldn't MA bought through Telekinesis only give you +7 STR as its a 3 points for 2 STR?
-
I'm not sure I understand?
Exactly!! His point too!!!

Hi Brian
Looks like Cantriped beat me to the link from Christopher Taylor's site...
I'm currently running a Supers game with 4 new players and 3 Old Timers (though we are all rusty).
Interspersed with this I've been doing some Danger International type scenarios as they haven't got any powers yet and its giving them a feel for the game as we go along. The other challenge I run into is that not all the players are there every game, so its like I'm re-explaining everything multiple times as we go along...
But - everyone is having fun!

I want to rebuild the characters stripped down and much simpler though. I like the concepts but they need to be really basic rather than the more complicated build I gave them. Some I may drop because they can't really be any more simple.
I think we should offer 6 choices and they can choose between those, make the characters both Male & Female versions (not that there should be much difference) just picture wise... Aim for a group with 4 players and throw in a couple extra's to give choice. The above characters were homages to the Avengers if memory serves...
-
We already have a bunch of Heroes made up from when this thread first started.
I'm about to head to bed, but tomorrow I can post the character ideas we had already created. We had them built in HD as well.
Look at post #150 for the character files...

That's nice HM, how do you define the "Magic Resistance" in the AVAD?
-
I've seen the phantom character before, and found it in the Downloads section, but I do not see it on the first post... (I've had this problem before too)
Nice pics by the way!!
What about a Gravity Field where she makes gravity in an area lighter so that people fly up or get pinned to the ground; likely bought as a Change Environment.

Not really harping on the build, but I should think you would want to define what the Defense is for the NND. I imagine having Power Defense? Anyway, here is my take;
Magic Missile, Apprentice Killing Attack - Ranged 1/2d6, Attack Versus Alternate Defense (Power Defense; All Or Nothing; +0), Line Of Sight (+1/2), Area Of Effect Accurate (1m Radius; +1/2), Does BODY (+1) (30 Active Points); Gestures (-1/4), Incantations (-1/4), Unified Power (Magic) (-1/4) Real Cost: 17
Magic Missile, Journeyman Killing Attack - Ranged 1/2d6, Attack Versus Alternate Defense (Power Defense; All Or Nothing; +0), Line Of Sight (+1/2), Area Of Effect Accurate (1m Radius; +1/2), Does BODY (+1), Autofire (2 shots; +1 1/4) (42 Active Points); Gestures (-1/4), Incantations (-1/4), Unified Power (Magic) (-1/4) Real Cost: 24 (but it is an upgrade so drop 17 points for a total of 7 to upgrade the power)
Magic Missile, Master Killing Attack - Ranged 1/2d6, Attack Versus Alternate Defense (Power Defense; All Or Nothing; +0), Line Of Sight (+1/2), Area Of Effect Accurate (1m Radius; +1/2), Does BODY (+1), Autofire (5 shots; +1 1/2) (45 Active Points); Gestures (-1/4), Incantations (-1/4), Unified Power (Magic) (-1/4) Real Cost: 26 (but it is an upgrade so drop 24 points for a total of 2 to upgrade the power - adding Autofire is what makes this power expensive so just increasing it by + 1/4 does not have much of a point cost impact)
If the GM allows Multipower or Variable Power Pools, you can ditch the Unified Power Limitation and just plop the powers into the framework. Then it would cost, 3, 5, and 9 points for a variable MP slot and "free" for a VPP.
Any Magic Missile build in Hero is going to be different than D&D though. They are different systems with different expected experiences. The key is understanding what you are looking for and playing to that expectation.
I might add +10 OCV to offset the auto fire minuses which would add to the cost as well.
-
I think one thing is, the no absolutes have the effect of not bypassing other character's expenditures as a handout, and create a fairness. Magic Missile is, in effect, bypassing all the things a player might do to make them hard to hit by missiles. This SHOULD cost more, as those defenses cost and should not be bypassed by a special rule that invalidates them, like autohit.
But the Shield spell automatically stops Magic Missile, maybe that can be the defence to the NND, kills two birds with one stone!

Did I miss where the picture is?
And what are you hoping for input on? more powers? Related skills?

Well that was random, but its what I got from <ctrl>+V...
Maybe I'm secretly Santa and I have to check my list twice?

Alternately, you could buy this as a transform on yourself, that wears off over time. Or Base the transform as the side effect. You do the big glorious save the world from extinction event heroics and turn into a teenager until the transform wears off.

Janet Van Dyne comes back still as young as when she disappeared, looks at Hank and says "Ewww your old..."

I think they plan on bringing in the new and improved wasp...

You could look at using an Attack Multipower, A defence Multipower and a Movement Multipower to represent the different elements of spell casting.

Just a kid, approx 15 years old, and the single child of wealthy parents. Jason Bowler was a brat and used to love manipulating the others at his school into doing things for him.
When his mental powers manifested he thought he'd just gotten good at getting people to do as he wanted not realizing that it was the work of his mutant powers.
Mind Tap has no super abilities other than his Mind Control (20d6) with fully invisible effects. He likes to dress up in 1920's clothing and go robbing banks priding himself on never hurting others.

I also have characters built off of Gravity, Storm, Water, Magnetics and Sound.
Can post them if you'd like...

This homeless person was injured in one of the first outbursts between Mordred's Order and the Knights. Charles Curtis Kaw was seriously injured and blames the Cowboy for jumping in while he was trying to get away. Arming himself with a Spear that Enchantress magicked up, he haas trained and seeks vengeance on the Knights and especially the Cowboy!
