Unfortunately, no there appears to be no way to get it to work on an iPad.  I actually bought the Android app and could not get it to work for me.
 
Their Windows app does work if you run it.

I got Karl Marx's grave.
But isn't that just another Communist plot ?

Agreed, in a perfect world there would be both but if I had to choose I would say the interwebs is where it's at with the kids these days.
 
Not like I have a vote or anything but it's fun to dream of a day when HERO is a known and recognized player

Interesting idea, here's my take:
 
Hadoken:  Blast 12d6 (60 Active Points); Increased by Range (8d6 @ 1-20m, 10d6 @ 21-40m, 12d6 @ 41+m; -1/4)  
It's debatable if it's a limitation or not but I imagine in a martial arts themed campaign there's going to be a lot of up close combat so I would let it ride as a limitation.

I think your character looks mechanically fine to me.  The only thing I would question is your Speed...I would double check with your GM and get his campaign average.
 
You are asking good questions ?

Here's my take on a bare bones super soldier that fills most of your criteria...I left out some stuff but there are plenty of points left over for you to do stuff with.
 
Sorry for the format, and I've attached the hdc file to this doc as well

My random pilot generator gave me Adolf Galland.
 
what ?
 
Oh plot not pliot.
 
Sorry, carry on.

Nice job. 

I'll keep the most up to date table here.
 
You'll need to download Inspiration Pad Pro in order to play around with the generator.
 
This only supports solo villains currently.
Supports Solo, Team, and Master villains now as well as villainous organizations.
 
 
 
Champions Encounters.ipt

I was reading through Eureka today and thought that in would be really cool to have something like this for Champs.  I know personally, when I'm strapped for game ideas I like to roll player Hunteds and see what comes together but it would be handy if we had a resource that was a little beefier.  I'm also looking for something new to possibly add to the HERO System Mobile app and this seems like it would be fun to do and in a similar spirit as the random character generator.  
 
At any rate, some ideas bouncing around in my head...
 
Rolls would be across multiple tables The first table would be the general type of encounter Solo villain (the table would have a list of solo villains) Group of villains (again, a list of villain teams would be on this table) Agency (as above, a list of villainous agencies on this table) Gang/Mob Coordinated combination (roll again) Uncoordinated combination (roll again) Rival combination (roll again) The next table you would roll on is the general motivation of the crime Power grab Monetary Spread chaos/power trip Unintentional confrontation ... The last table would be the location table City core City outskirts Research lab Government facility University ...  
The last 2 tables need more fleshing out
 
Obviously, some combinations may seem funny like rolling a bank heist for Grond may be a bit of stretch but if nothing else the tool would be good for brainstorming I figure.
 
If anyone is interested in fleshing this out with me let's work together in this thread.

I would highly recommend looking at the NBOS Software tool Inspiration Pad Pro which is specifically designed to let you create complicated tables that generate complicated results.  You can create tables that can be 'called' by other tables.

Over the past month I have been working on a cross platform app called the OpenD6 Toolkit. My intention with the app is to allow people to play OpenD6 games and its variants from a mobile device as well as provide useful tools for players and GMs alike.
I’m pleased to report that OpenD6 Toolkit is now available via the following app stores:
Google Play Store Apple App Store Amazon App Store The project is open sourced and hosted on github here.
Features
Die roller
Supports both classic and Legend styles of rolling Statistics are also tracked on your dice Character tools
Select a template to build your character from Automatically calculates your point cost Supports the three base genres out of the box (Adventure, Fantasy, Space) Supports all options (Advantages, Complications, Special Abilities) Save/Load/Delete characters Game Templates
The app supports custom game templates that may be used to build characters There is a companion project for sharing templates here Custom templates means you can support games that use the Mini Six ruleset easily  
Let me know what you think of the work so far.
 
Thanks!

Do any of these characters have a Heroic Code of Ethics?  This sounds like a Dark Champions game...maybe you're playing the wrong genre for the group?
 
The mage was metagaming and being a jerk IMO.

Maybe start using the optional rules for impairment and state that though the BODY may be healed the impairment will not.  They may not care either way tbh some players are just like that.

That's an interesting idea...if you use HAPs a critical hit could reward one.  Gives the player a chance to decide on how to use their extra success.

I remember back in the day we started using random critical hit/critical fumbles table and my Fighter cut his own arm off on a fumble.  He was eventually retired after we found out what it would cost to have it regrown (we were only level 7 and strapped for cash).
 
D&D was where I learned never to let the dice rule the game.  There's a reason why the "GM Screen" is a thing after all
 

Wow, so I'm hearing a lot of passion here for the inclusion of the H.E.R.O. tool in its current form, and that's great but as is common, there are reasons as to how things come to be.  Essentially, I'm not a graphic artist and when I started this project I reached out to the publishers and asked for permission to use their branding including the logo for the app.  They were cool with this as long as I wasn't turning a profit off of the backs of the HERO System contributors, and this aligned nicely with my own ambitions for the project.  That's why the app looks the way it does and is branded the way it is...I'm a terrible artist and publishers are kind 
 
I love this game and want to add value to the current ecosystem by providing tools and services for free to my fellow HERO-philes.  I want more people to play this game and fall in love with it like I and many of us have - lets be honest, this community's size pales in comparison to the 800lb dungeon crawling gorilla.  I want to help change that.  To that end my app is free to use, ad free, and respects the users privacy, and will remain that way.
 
I'm telling you all this because I want to make my own intentions crystal clear.  
 
Now, to answer why I didn't do 6e random characters at launch.  Primarily, it's because the Champions Character Card kickstarter went live when I was developing this tool.  If I were to include a random 6e character generator I would run the risk of directly countering my express goal of not harming this community or company.  The reality is that this is a business and DoJ needs to make money, and the inclusion of a random 6e character tool in my app undermines the bottom line for DoJ.  Secondly, Cassandra's excellent work was 5e originally, as we all understand...no need to rehash that.
 
In summation, I will make the wording clarifications on Google Play and the app store because I think you're on point with people potentially being confused about what 5e vs 5th edition HERO means.  I will not be adding in a random 6e character generator though for the reasons I outline above.  The only thing that would change my position would be a request from the publishers themselves.

It's not Wil Wheaton (most) people hate, it's the character of Wesley Crusher ?

I liked him in The Guild tbh ?

I received an "undefined" error loading a character from Dropbox, but the same file loaded successfully from Google Drive.
 
It's a nice app - my initial impression is that navigation can be a bit tricky (I keep wanting to swipe to go back).
 
 

I am pleased to announce the launch of the HERO System Mobile app on both the Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store.  You can install the app by searching for it in your app store or by using the links provided.  The app is free to use, ad free, and respects your privacy.
 
Google Play - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.herogmtools App Store - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hero-system-mobile/id1352750917?ls=1&mt=8 Amazon App Store - http://a.co/byom955  
This project is an extension of an export template I wrote a few months ago.  I had so much fun writing that template that I decided to develop a full app.
 
Features
Import characters from Hero Designer using this export template Characteristics and Skills may be long pressed and a check will be made Dice rolling tools (3d6, Hit, Damage, and Free Form)  The H.E.R.O. tool generates random 250 point 5e supers (shout out to Cassandra for allowing me to use her original idea) Track statistics about your die rolls, including average values, distribution, total stun etc.  
This is still very much a work in progress and I have plans to add more features as time goes on.  For now though I feel that it’s mature enough to release to the general public.
 
Feedback is always welcome either here or at phil.guinchard@gmail.com
 
Happy Hero-ing

All you need is what this badass is selling.

And here is the prototype.
