Re: Assault on Stronghold well... I think that the drama is an important point. You can add also a quest for the PC that create a sub plot. For example, if they are searching for something without exactly know what is it, they can have suspects and doubts for the other members. Starting from the fact that they are criminals all can be "increased". I'd like to play Firewing (I know... he's little too powerfull) for his great power and ambitions, Grond a nice character with some humoristic features, Tesseract for her strange powers or Garganthua (I like play it with a high society cultural level in contraddiction with his mass). Also The Monster is a interesting one, a random shade, an unpredictable char.

Re: Assault on Stronghold Hi. It's is a good and interesting idea. I had the same problem with the destruction of Detroit by Dr. Destroyer. I plannet a long adventure during wich Dr.d recruited a team of supervillains to stand agian the heroes. Almost more of them was imprisoned into Stronghold. So I played an "Escape from Stronghold" adventure during which a great part of the building was destroyed or damaged from the criminals. this is a good way to built a new Stronghold prison.

Re: Help with a "Possessing Hero" Why not an elemental character with: -Invisibility always on; -desolid always on; -Total life support; -Megascale movement (to reflect the mind movement); -High pool of telepathy (to steal victim information) affect real world; must control the victim; -High pool of mind control (to control the victim) affect real world; 0 END continuos; Must not leave the victim; -A less VPP to simulate little effects; A simplest version could be: -the char lives in another dimension; -senses trandimensional (to see victims); -Mind scan and Telepathy transdimensional (as above with limitation sigle target(-1) to simulate that the powers turns off when it choose another victims); the drawback could be: side effect nd6 killing attack when vistims take damege (if appropriate). eventually a nd6 mind control on victim (forget all of possession) 0 END; trigger: when possession turn off;

Re: The Italian Connection About Paradise: If hell is a 999 layer dimension pack, its opposite is less schematic. A more order-based dimension with well defined hierarchies and a more "military" aspect. It could seems strange but as bible say there are "hierarchies of angels".

Re: The Italian Connection Well... I think that Dante is not a combat character. He probably prefer conversation and mental powers to escape from dangerous situations. If the story fall to a conflict then he can use gadgets (a personal Force Field or a desolidification that shake his body into different dimension randomly, for example).

Re: The Italian Connection Good idea for the KSs. Even if after 700 years of this work he probly have something more generic like AK: Dimensions 15- Other adders can be: languages (Celestial, Infernalis) Other ideas? Even for the "gadgets"?

Re: The Italian Connection Yes. I know. I had doubts about it but it is a (high power) champions sheet so... the SPD is necessary. I thinked about it as a biological power aquired from dimensional work, as universal translator and mental powers. He was "manipulated" from some interdimensional force and had gain some inner powers. Dimensional technology is a magic-based form of focus. In some dimension is magic, in some other tech. It reflects the gadget pool he have to fight dimensional enemies. Soon...

Re: The Italian Connection You are not Russian? I'm sorry. I misunderstood. Where are you born? This is a simple Dante Alighieri Sheet. What do you think about it?

Re: The Italian Connection

Re: The Italian Connection Yes but he leaved Florence (Firenze) for political problems. He travel as an exile trough Italy (during these voyage he thinked about a travel from Inferno to Paradiso) and find a home in Ravenna where he stayed until his death. Many years later Florence citizens (fiorentini) wanted his body but he rest here again I use a more complex Inferno. I think that is a multidimensional place (formed of 999 inferni. The first and last ones are disabitated or earth-near. The ones which is sometimes visible from our dmension and/or from where some ghsts or demons may escape. The inner ones are the planes of all culture's hell (like nowegian hell, greek hell, etc.) They are a kind of regions. I usually a have a player of deminic origin (it is a human-demon mix resulted from an experiment of Demon organization high positioned in Inferis gerarchies) and he visited some of them. There is a lot of "space" for ideas. One of them, for example, is a complex alien forest where demons hunts humans for sport...
