Has anyone ever thought of or done a cosmic entity power level campaign? I’ve been thinking of running one were the players characters would be to Galactus what the average X-man is to Magneto (making the character far more powerful than Silversufer). So the players characters would be a bit under the power level of Galatus yet could possibly take him out. The Universe I’m thinking of is like Marvel and DC. Now I know what many of you (and I) are thinking. This would be impossible to run as a fun game and would get out of hand. However, I also know that this forum is full of many creative geniuses and I am hoping to get your insight and ideas on how you would run a campaign like this. In the end, I’m hoping this will be a thread to turn to for ideas on Cosmic Entity Adventures! Problems I for see are: 1. How to paint the picture of what a player sees as a cosmic entity. What is the environment of a cosmic entity? 2. What laws govern them? And how to keep passive enough laws where the entities can still feel like cosmic entities. (So what if I just blew up a star and billions of lower life forms died.) 3. Who/what enforces these laws? (Have a few ideas, but am open to hear more) 4. What the hell do cosmic entities do together? 5. What could be an adventure for them? 6. Why would they be hanging out together? 7. What do cosmic entities care about? 8. Feel free to give cosmic entity ideas. 9. How do I keep the players from getting out of hand? 10. How do I keep the players from getting bored? 11. How do I think cosmic? 12. Any ideas or suggestions would be great. Ideas I have so far are: 1. Create several cosmic entity NPC’s and races. 2. There are prisons for entities that break cosmic law. For example, in the center of every gallaxy there are prison planets that neutralize much of an entities’ powers and they cannot leave using their own powers (yes just like Star Trek V). Another prison idea is put them in a black hole; this place would be a void (a place of nothingness). 3. Create cosmic entities (enemies) for the player characters

Re: Excel Spreadsheet for tracking Combat Order This is great! very handy for combat. I like the side panel in the combat statistics tab. Question: Are you going to update this? If you do I request there maybe be a 3rd tab for the side panel bar. This way more than 6 characters can be kept track of in combat. Or something like that done so that all the characters names can be seen on the panel. Again this is great. Thanks! I'm definitely going to use this for my games.

Re: What books are Characters in? Thanks! These links are great!

Re: What books are Characters in? For some reason the Ultimate Index pdf link is not working?

It seems like awhile back ago I found a list of characters in Champions. The list gave information as where to find the Characters. It told what books these character were in and what page number they could be found on. I thought this sounded nice since it is such a pain flipping threw 8+ books trying to find characters and what page they can be found on. Plus I'd like to know what book to buy if I want a characters stats. Does this list or a list like it sound familiar to anyone?

Re: Conversions and other links? That's it.!! Thanks:)

Whatever happen to that thread that had a list of links to several websites that had converted several fictional Universes to the Hero System?

Re: Darkseid Thanks. I know I'm going to hate my self for asking but what is USPD?

Are there any 5 ed Darkseid builds out there? I'm trying to create a character with similar powers and I wanted to see how people went about it. Any ideas?

Re: Is the Hero the Ultimate System? Doc Democracy, that looks pretty cool. So do you have or can you do a more M & M Simpson's four color character sheet looking one? .....I know thats a mouth full. I might stand a chance on converting some of my friends to HERO this way. Flashy colors help for a good sale sometimes.

Re: Converting Palladium to HERO I would to see some prefabs done on the Powers Unlimited books or even the main book HU2. I'm not sure if the class could be done to add on, but that would be cool too. I love palladiums writing, but I am not so sure about the system. Has any one done anything like this?

I saw this question on M & M posed for M & M. And I was wondering how you feel. Is the Hero System the Ultimate system?

Does anyone know what champions beyond is going to be? Is there a way to find out? It is unclear to me on how to find out about new coming books. In this case, Ignorance is not bliss:confused:

Re: Looking for a Greek God Picture Thank you so much for your help guys. I found the picture I needed for my character and many more for future characters. Thanks again for all your help

Hi guys, I'm looking for a picture for my character. I'm looking for a picture of a guy who looks like a Greek god shaved and with a Greek shield. I'm have a little difficulty finding the right pic. So I thought to my self to ask you guys for any hints or links to cool Greek god like pics. I know with the vast knowledge here this is the place to come.

Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? What about Annabelle? She did get to fly with the reindeer. Maybe she could be a humanoid mutant cow?

Re: smallville stats cool thanx. At least I have a quick Clark stat:)

Has anyone made stats for smallville characters? I did a little looking around and didn't see any. If you know of some please let me know:)

Does someone know of a stat write up for Silver Surfer and Galactus in the hero system? If you do could you point me in the right direction? If not I would love to see one( or a few), so if anyone feels like writing one up, feel free and maybe leave your write up here.

Re: Whould you buy...CHAMPIONS SOUTH OF THE BORDER and CHAMPIONS OF THE RISING SUN. I'm all for a Champions China book. I would buy that or an Champions of Asian one in a heart beat. So it's a 50/50 on me getting a Japan book or south of the border.

Re: Why should I buy Champions? Cool thanks!

Re: Why should I buy Champions? I'm not sure if anyone will read this aging thread, but I thought I'd let you guys know that I bought the Heroes System 5th ed!!! I've only glimpse at the game and have not read the book. But I do have a question ocv and dcv they are offensive and defensive stats right? I'm wondering do all characters attack as well as they defend them selves. It looks like the ocv and dcv all always have the same number. I'm, assuming there are other things that can make a sure shot boxers be a poor dodger. Anyway Like I said I just glimpsed at the game and I wont have any real time to read it until Christmas Break. But I do glimpse here some times.

Re: Why should I buy Champions? Could some one tell me the difference between 4th edition and 5th?

Re: Why should I buy Champions? Another quick question. what software do you use for the game and how handy is it?

Re: Why should I buy Champions? Thank you all for your help. I believe I will buy this game. I know your guises advice will go a long way with me. Hopefully by next summer when I'm on summer break from college I can give this game a try. I will be saving up my nickels, dimes and pennies. So hopefully next summer or maybe Christmas Break I will be on here more. I will defiantly be asking a lot of questions.
