  2. Fallout (Too)

    in Champions

    Posted

    Re: Fallout (Too)

     

    a) What are his refueling needs? If he can charge up just by being anywhere, it's worth no points. If he needs to stop and rest for an hour every six hours, that's kind of a pain in the ass. What counts as 'ambient radiation'? Sunlight? Being inside a nuclear reactor? Eating weaponized plutonium? Sitting in a locked room, feeding off neutrinos? Getting an x-ray taken? Can he extend the time between recharges if he hardly uses his powers? Can he shorten the time between recharges if he pushes a lot? Why did you use this limitation instead of with a disadvantage or END Reserve? Is the answer 'to shave points'? You might get dirty looks from your GM.

     

    B) You're going to be toast the first time you meet Hydro-Man, or do anything near water. This is like Green Lantern being beaten up by a guy in a banana costume.

     

    A- I'm not sure if sunlight would cover it, maybe with the hour of downtime needed it might work. When we played in the last campaign Fallout lived inside a nuclear reactor. I would think some direct source of low level radiation like several microwaves or a wall of old televisions in addition to sunlight might be enough. That's one I would leave in GM's hands to make a final call. The other way I would set the powers up would be that he lost AP without direct exposure to radiation but Fuel Dependent seemed to be the closest I could get other than Dependence and I didn't want to take that six times.

     

    B- Depends is it this Banana? I removed the Limited from his Force Field to help with the Bananaman problem.

    Re: Fallout (Too)

     

    Removing the linked did shoot him well above 350. I've edited Fallout replacing the Linked with Limited based on his Susceptibility and reduced the overall power level of his Elemental Control. (Strength was dropped as well.) In addition I've added some clarity to the Fuel Dependency and expanded what powers require the radiation bath. Because Linked was removed, I moved the Lightening Calculator back to Talents. Also, Fast Strike was removed all together but can someone clarify why one cannot take a single martial maneuver?

     

    Hopefully this brings Fallout up to code as it were, enjoy.

    While going through the threads over on the Champions Online site I saw several requests for Growth powers. This got me thinking about Fallout. It's been almost a year since I've had a chance to play him and it's been over a year getting to familiarize myself with the current Hero System.Sure he's a giant ball of radiation but what would I have done differently? After scanning through the book I noticed a little rider to Growth saying if it's intended to be persistent buy the bonuses not the power. So it was 1 AM and I got that itch. While putting him together I noticed he began taking on a more nut cracker shape as I tried to focus on nature of his powers and how the Radiation could permeate everything. Here we go Fallout Too he's a bit more of a nut cracker than the first rendition but I tried to keep him in line with the original. Hope you enjoy:

    Background/History: Jason Burrows was once an almost normal collage student, studying to become a Radiologist. With grades just above average and a fondness of sports Jason never conceived of the strange mutagenic powers growing within him. When one of his professors noticed that his body carried abnormal amounts of radiation his name and information was logged for future review. For whatever reason, Jason’s body did not dissipate any of the ambient radiation absorbed during day to day activities.

     

    Jason’s data was forwarded to an organization that preyed on weak mutants looking to capitalize on their abilities before they realized their potential. Monitoring his progress though collage his body already contained lethal levels of radiation before his senior year. Self contained, it was only detectable though blood sampling and other detailed analysis. To avoid harming the young man the professor who originally made the discovery kept Jason’s medical files confidential working with his doctors. This set Jason up for the event that forever changed his life.

     

    Just out of collage Jason was offered an internship with one of the leading hospitals in the country for cancer therapy specializing in radiotherapy. On his first day Jason was trapped inside a clean room with an experimental XBRT laser where he was bombarded with the ultra high levels of radiation. The beam controlled from the outside had been modified increase the output ten thousand fold, fatal to a normal man within seconds.

     

    On that day Jason Burrows died. His body burned away from the inside in a nuclear fire. Fallout was born, his consciousness existing within the field of static electricity created in ambient radiation. The resulting explosion of his birth destroyed nearly half the wing; eighteen dead in the explosion and another sixty four from radiation exposure in the weeks after. Since that day Fallout has undergone extreme scientific observation but so far it seems he can contain the radioactive elements that comprise his consciousness in a semisolid body.

     

    Personality/Motivation: When unidentified military forces attacked the research facility Jason was being held he was instrumental in their defense. Fallout has aided the military and policing organizations on numerous occasions helping to quell super powered threats. However, to this day seeks revenge on the organization that ended his chances at a normal life and has dedicated himself to stopping the machinations of science out of control. He accepts the need for experimentation and the progress of technology and does not fear scientific advancement but cannot abide by the loss of an individual’s right to choose.

     

    Quote:

     

    Powers/Tactics: In battle Fallout centers himself away from friendly combatants using his size and strength to maneuver opponents often throwing them around with ease. His semisolid state allowing him bursts with radioactive energy debilitating nearby foes. Note: When Fallout’s cohesion is threatened he will pull himself into a dense collection of matter appositely the size of a normal person, as described under appearance.

     

    Campaign Use:

     

    Appearance: A pulsing humanoid shaped ball of crackling radioactive energy. A red eye of force float within the center. With concentration Fallout can return to a semi-humanoid state. While humanoid his flesh retains the same red-green hue constantly flickering and rippling as if trying to burst free of the skin.

    Re: Am I explaining genetics correctly?

     

    Actually' date=' China would have 1 (population over 1 billion, under 1.5), India would have 1 (same) ... I dunno about the rest. But those two would/should have one each, going purely by population statistics.[/quote']

     

    I thought China had a disproportionate number of males to females. Although I suppose at this high a level it would have to be like three to one.

    Re: Am I explaining genetics correctly?

     

    Based on population density China may likely have two or three of these empowered XXY peoples. It may be interesting to see them on opposite sides like one being a nationalist the other a Humans Rights Activist. Allies like Russia and the US being asked to assist puts them into very interesting political space.

    Re: Am I explaining genetics correctly?

     

    Sounds like an interesting premise and depending on how far you let the players take their powers could be an interesting mental exercise in justifying their powers.

     

    XXY: With the ratios presented above I doubt this would come up in game play unless you're looking at a story around it. In that case here would be my suggestions:

     

    The XXY would likely exhibit traits of the dominate gender, so for the most part male. However, they may have minor abilities of the other gender. Another possibility is that they exhibit powers at a high level of both genders but cannot control them, as the genetic marker that allows the subject to control their abilities is being confused by the flood of information. In game terms they may have a Cosmic VPP with Uncontrollable and a Trigger like emotional state/ fight or flight response.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Another way to represent "unstoppable cutting weapons":

     

    AVLD vs Combat Luck/"Avoidance Defense". IOW, only PD/ED based on a SFX of "Not Getting Hit" applies to the weapon.

     

    I really like this power suggestion first thing I thought of was:

     

    "If on your journey, you should encounter God, God will be cut."

    Re: What happens in Vegas...

     

    This discussion seems to have jumped into "spirited mode."

     

    To boil this down to universal this is how I interpreted the event:

     

    You work at a job, while you are off something comes up and you are called in. You try to call one of your co-workers to help resolve the incident but they can't be reached. They were not on duty or on call either. The incident at work is resolved without calling in the other person. You are their equal not their manager, how would you treat them?

    The treatment is good, the subjects on the other hand I'm not so sure about. I use a similar treatment for a book that I'm working on now. You can find directories of public images or cruise to any given ren-fair for fantasy style subjects. I would like to see how some live models turn out.

    Reinard the Fox would slip in, forcing himself under the door if neccesary, and then give Captain Zapper a reaming about responsibilities and how business, especially the business of stopping criminals, must come before pleasure. And then end it with, "By the way, we managed that ourselves without you, but you really need to get your priorities straight if you're going to be providing a service to your society."

    One that I've wanted to do for a while is a fight inside a large plane. Be it a cargo plane with the bay doors open or a passenger plane where one side gets blown out. The former provides the hazards of falling out and damaging the plane causing a crash. The latter adds the elements of pressurizing the cabin, much more restricted room to move and a lot of innocent bystanders that cannot get out of the way.

    Re: The Forever Man

     

    Fallout would be at a loss on this one. As he is still dealing with the nature of his own powers he may try to console the immortal with ideas of responsibility to one's powers and using them for the greater good.

     

    Apollyon: Although he would be unlikely able to kill the Forever Man he would try and talk through his life with him to try and find the point he became exhausted by his long life. Looking for specific events that may have triggered the change in nature. If pushed he may attempt to use the Eye of Ruination (Mind Control) to purge some of the more traumatic memories from his consciousness in an effort to help him deal with his protracted lifespan or if need be create a mental block and "modern history" so that he might life at least one lifetime as a normal man before his powers reincarnate him again.

    Re: Name that flag-suited hero!

     

    Is it important that he remain a Capitan?

     

    American Glory

    American Herald or Herald America (Although there might be some confusion with the spelling of the Herald)

    Founder Glory (I like this one for two reasons, one it implies that he is a source of pride in the US Flag and two it sounds like he finds the flag as his inspiration.)

    Incarnation of Glory

    Gallant Glory

    Glory Shield (That is to say he is a protector of Old Glory not a shield bearing hero.)

    Glory Born

    Incarnation of Glory

    National Glory

    Spirit of Glory or Glory's Spirit

    Standard Bearer (As in Battle Standard and Bearer of)

    - Flag Bearer

    - Glory Bearer

     

    Other Names:

    Eternal Glory (May be a better name for a religious themed character.)

    Stars and Bars (May be a better name for powers but I can only picture what those might be...)

    13 and 50 (Again may be a better power name)

     

    and Just for Kicks

    Title: The Hero who never Runs (as in the Red White and Blue, the colors that never run.)

    Re: What does it mean to be a hero?

     

    Wow. A lot of these responses are very vindictive and petty. :straight: Is this what gaming has come to? Is Captain Zapper really so horrible if he's not at your beck and call while on a trip to Las Vegas? Is this how a "super" hero responds?

     

    On the flip side, how can you blame Captain Zapper? How many t.v. show episodes have there been where "the beast with two backs" was interrupted by a phone call which either ruined the relationship or ended up being the last time they saw each other alive? Would you really stop or want your partner to stop bumping uglies because the phone rang? Maybe he did the decent thing and turned the phone off before he started. Don't be jealous because he has more stamina than you. :tsk:

     

    Agreed, just because you put on the Spandex doesn't mean you're there for every crime. Besides everybody, even heroes needs some "personal time."

    Re: What happens in Vegas...

     

    Apollyon: Unsure how he got hooked up with a guy named Capitan Zapp in the first place would likely ignore the event. There is nothing forcing most people to act like heroes, for this man that is what he needed at the time, the robbery was resolved no harm no foul. If the group of robbers had some kind of larger affiliation or if upon research after the fight they show a history of coordinated actions it may spark Apollyon's curiosity as to the circumstances of their meeting. Should Capitan Zapp's relationship with this person continue Apollyon may encourage him to research her background.

     

    Fallout: Feel very uncomfortable and sulk, missing his body. (Fallout is consciousness trapped within a self contained collection of radiation. His body was destroyed just after college.)
