  1. Re: Thrown Mastery or somthing akin....

     

    I would look at approaching this build from three angles. First is the objects thrown a small multipower with say a Energy Blast and Killing attack to get you started . This first multipower would have the Focus requirement. Then a second multipower for Throwing Master these would mimic the attacks from the first multipower with a weak limited requires weapons of opportunity. Add to this Combat Skill levels that match or exceed the damage classes of these two multipowers. This would allow the character to take say a 1 Pip Killing Attack (Playing Card) and stagger bonuses to bring it into something a lot more formidable using the multiple power attack rules.

    normal ground has 16 body

    so you will need to generate 32 body ,that is the bad news

    the good news is every 4 extra body doubles the amount of hexes affected

     

    the question would be would this be minor or major transform

    for me this would be a minor transform

     

    I like the tunneling idea as well, take on ranged and you can have some fun. With the Transform I thought there was a middle ground between Minor and Major, a 10 point option that would work. It's expensive but once you can break that 32 Body cap regularly there's a lot of room for some fun. Say a 10d6 or 15d6 transform. With the 15d6 transform I think you'd be rolling around 50 body on average so that's 8 hexs deep if my math is right.

    Are we talking something like livecasting from the house or are you setting up a physical location? Right now I run a podcast on kink and sexuality (Definitively not T-For Teen, maybe T for T&A) but the studio I work with has several shows that are radio safe. Depending on what you are looking to do maybe we can set up some cross promotional radio shows.

     

    For the Shameless plug you can check out my show's page and archive over at Certified Sound or on iTunes. From there you can link to VVC Radio proper.

    Alexandria Shade: Martial Artist and Shadow Manipulator Alexandria moves with beautiful and fatal precision. Focusing her life force Alexandria gives life to her shadow, the Shade parallels her movements allowing her to strike twice or defend against multiple foes with ease. Although not commonly known Alexandria cannot manipulate her shadow while she can see her image reflected in a mirror.

  5. Re: How does your world handle Magic/Psi?

     

    In the Metahumans Rising setting Magic is something that has always existed. A popular modern belief is that magic and supernatural creatures were earlier Metahumans before science fully uncovered these genetic differences. However, this theory would be wrong. There are those people out there who are able to tap into magical forces without being genetically different. These mages are often secretive some belong to arcane orders while others study alone.

     

    As for Psionics, this category of powers is seen as little different than normal Metahumans. Psychics are often considered dangerous due to fears mind reading and control but beyond that there is little more than the normal stigma.

    Freeman: No one is sure hold old Freeman is but the scars across his pack are clearly from the whip. Freeman battles to protect others oppressed by the CSA with impenetrable flesh and the ability to manipulate and glide through the earth. Some believe Freeman is the ghost of an escaped slave and that his soul cannot rest until all men are made truly free. CSA propaganda promotes that there is no one Freeman but multiple men who pose as the uppity black to spread fear in the white community. CSA reports indicate that these Freemen have been killed over a dozen times by law enforcement.

    The truth is something far different. A slave be brought to market in the colonies before the United States won their independence the man who would become know as Freeman fought alongside whites for a liberated America, a free America. When the war was over he was returned to his master's farm in South Carolina where he rebelled refusing to go back to being a slave. Whipped and beaten for days he was hanged at the plantation's tallest tree as a reminder of what it means to rebel. As the noose dropped though he spoke a silent prayer for all those who had died for this land and it's said the mother heard his prayer. When his body ws finally laid to rest she came to him and blessed him, called him back and set him free. Imbued with the strength of the land whips would break at his back bullets would flatten at his chest and he would have the strength to set all men free. Pulling himself free from the earth Freeman was reborn but the world had changed around him. Centuries had past as the Earth Mother worked her magic on his body and he found himself in a place he hardly knew. This however, has not stopped his goal, in fact it has only driven him harder to correct all the pain inflected by a corrupt government and those who see them as inherently superior.

     

    The Dog Catcher: CSA super solder Randal Barns left the military to join the police. There he found he had not just great skill at tracking down targets but a love for the work. Opting for an experimental government program Barns found his already keen senses enhanced to super human levels in addition to his new found sensory powers he learned he could also control the minds of animals, dogs being the easiest. Since this time he has worked for a secret government agency tracking down and removing abolitionists and anti-gorvernment rabble rouses within the CSA.Wearing protective body armor and a wolf head mask they call him the Dog Catcher.

  8. Re: Female/Male Super-Forms

     

    This seems to be a common problem in the gaming world. We can craft world upon world with characters in the hundreds with personality and quirks and needs with ease, ask us how we feel and suddenly ninety percent of us become mute. Nothing really to add here just an observation. There have been far to many times where I've been guilty of this one too.
