Re: How would you build this I like the extra Ego Idea, Have to talk to My GM about that. Also hey, someone else From Portland, OR. Cool.

I have a character idea. He's a Brick, he has the Reputation of being a "dumb brick", and acts really dumb "in costume". He is really a smart guy though. The power in question is, I want to deceive Mentalists. If someone trys to mind control him or use a mental power, I want them to "think" they succeed even if they don't. So how would you buy the deception, oviously I would need some mental defense, and maybe reduction. But it's the deception part I need to figure out. Acting Skill would probably be in use, but I would think I would need more than that. (However using "Acting" in Combat, is an interesting concept, that we've used before, [i.e. pretending to still be stunned]) If someone has Mental Defense, the Mentalist usually feels resistance, if the target isn't controlled, the Mentalist usually knows he failed. (This is what I want to avoid). Example: Mentalist: "Kill your Friends" Makes Mind Control Roll Brick: Makes Roll, Looks at friend, Menancingly, on his turn, attacks Mentalist.

I live in Portland, and have signed up for Gamestorm 2003. I would REALLY want to play in your game, that you had on your news that you are planning on running. I looked at the Gamestorm 2003 schedule of events, and didn't see a listing yet. I was wondering what day you had plan on running. If you had given them the info and they didn't post it yet. Or if you hadn't decided yet. Any case I'm REALLY looking forward to play in a game run by the creator of the game.

I think I know the answer, but if I can get it straight from the creater's fingers. So I could end an arguement with one of my players. Would be apperciated. Under Multiattack, it mentions that the attacks need to use different powers. (i.e. EB, and RKA). My player thinks this means as long as the F/X for both is different you could use the same power. For example, A guy has two guns, one is a ballastic bullet gun, and one is an energy rifle. Both are seperate Multipowers The guy fires a 12d6 EB from the left gun, and a 10d6 EB from the right gun, Would that be considered a valid multiattack, or invalid, since they are using the same power EB for both. I think it wouldn't be allowed. He could fire a 12d6 EB from the left gun, and a 4d6RKA from the right gun and be fine.
