Argus

1/2 way between ... Detroit and Chicago on Hwy 12. Would that be Coldwater?

How about an Easy Question The best thing you can do is as the GM. Every game depends on the limits placed on the game by the GM. I ran in a 250 point game once and I had a 30 Dex Martial Artist. (Other 250 point games everyone maxed out around 23) So I thought I was going to be the fastest thing around. Every Person the GM had us fight was faster. A.

Well the answer is obvious. I would start laughing and not stop until I passed out.

Re: What would your character do? #20 Realizing I was some how placed at the exit of the wormhole that connects all dryers in the universe. The place where all missing socks go to I would search the sky for falling socks and try to reenter the wormhole from this end to get back to Earth.

That Would Depend on the power. If it is not really a disadvantage then no. Take Regeneration, cost end to turn power off. What would be the point? Now if it was something like 2d6RKA Always On, Personal Immunity.No range, Cost End to Turn Off 60 Active Points (6 End) then I could see it. As long as your Recovery doesn't allow you to get all the End back each turn. A.

Aliens, Aliens and More Aliens Now that 70% of the Humans are gone it time for the Orieans to move in. A.

It is a 350 point character, He had trouble with his Template power so he could only send it HTML and I can't post HTML here.

I don't see anything wrong with Mystica But Mystica doesn't have +6 to DCV, cost end to Activeate Only, x4 End, IAF Only in Hero ID Put it in an EC, get a 30 point power for 4 points. Just to name one power.

One of my players what's to play this character. Would you allow it

Children Argus actually has three children. An adoptive daughter of a super villain who was put away for life. She asked that the girl be taken care of. Twin boys. The daughter has powerful mental powers like her mother. She works as a child psychiatrist. The boys have powers one of them can not be seen if he doesn’t want to be. The other is a teleporter. Some of my other characters have had children also. A.

One Question. Or What? If they are just looking for the best then let the those who think they are the best show up. If they want the best or they destroy the planet. Well then I would have to get on that ship and release any prisoners they might have and find some way of stoping them. A.

You could have a known Super Hero run against him. I did this once with a super hero who’s only real power was 7 body regeneration usable on others. He was upset with the anti META view of the US and decided that the only way to change it was to run. He got other META’S to run for Governors at the same time. Starting a third party with world attention was a big help the only problem was when Cerebral won California. A.

Been There Done That This happened to one of my characters once, Avian, her name was Valkyrie. We had a love hate relationship from the minute we met. Avian was not sure what to do so he started getting dressed. When she woke up she tried to kill him. Later they got married. A.

I feel your pain. I ran a bunch of characters in a UN superhero group called The Global Guardians, long before the Web page stole my name. I had them involved in all kinds of super plots revolving around Machanon, Alien Invaders, and Super Sorceresses, to name a few. They did Time travel adventures and saved the world a hundred different way. When you have World Saving Super hero’s you need to have world threatening Super Villains and plots that run on for a long time. I had one plot that unfolded over three years about shape shifting aliens, and one of them was their accountant in the UN. They were very surprised to find that one out. The JLA helped me think of story lines that would work. A

No you're right for most people it would be a total shut down, which is why I didn’t post what my other characters would do. But the Argus character is a Robotic Wiz who took Machine Language as one of his languages. If he found out he was a robot the first thing he would do is see if he was one of his robots or someone else’s. Depending on the answer would depend on what he did next. My other characters would just shut down for awhile not being able to cope with it. Argus.

Re: What would you do? what would you do? Captain Death, a 7' tall brick with translucent skin, would grab the little wiener dog next to him and say "Hurt one hair on that cat and the wiener dog gets it." And while he was wondering if I was serious I would kick him in the groin. "I told you..." Argus.

Re: What would your character do? #8 This is great, I love it and I'm going to use it. Argus PS. My Character would make a Robotics roll to see if he is one of his own creations or someone elses.

Re: What Would You Do If..... The Double Cross I've had this happen to me. I radio the other team that there are robot duplicates attacking me.
