Greetings. I'm about to start a Dark Champions vigilante game and I'm at a but if a loss for scenario ideas. I was hoping that the assembled herodom could offer some suggestions and help get the creative juices flowing. The game is heroic-level with equipment purchased with money. Characters are based on 75+75 points. The current crop of characters: A criminal court judge, owner of an apartment block. A Catholic junior priest with some mystic powers of an angel of vengence. A former dot-com mogol with a surveillance van. A wealthy ex-green beret who provides training for security and law enforcement. !DrFurous!

For a similar effect to 50% damage resistance, you could buy up your OCV only for the "Roll with Punch" maneuver. I'm not sure what value of a limitation should be -1, -1.5 ? This may better simulate what you're trying to achive survival-wise without walking around like an armored tank. !DrFUROIUS!

The use of the Continious (+1/2 ?) and Uncontrolled (+1/2) advantages should do the trick. Generally, the utility and defensive spells are quite cheap for a fantasy game so you can afford a higher active point total for spells based on these effects. The advantage is that you can freely switch slots once these powers have gotten rolling - provided you've allocated some END to running them. In the end, it boils down to how much END you allocate to each spell. I use a variant of the Reduced END advantage called Duration for spells: Pay END every Turn (+1/2), each step down the time chart is an additional +1/4. Basically, you wind up paying more than the 0 END advantage but I generally disallow that for spells anyway !DrFURIOUS!

I'd do this as an X-Dim movement into Chaos Nation's "body". The powers could either be Aid's to existing powers or partially limited powers that depend on how many "citizens" he's absorbed. The assigning of damage to a citizen is a bit tricky tho - I'd probably do it with a missle re-direction, transdimensional (into the body dimension) with ungodly bonuses to the roll. You can make it constantly active (?) with the potential for Chaos Nation to absorb it himself (i.e. he doesn't reflect). The poor citizen could be released from the "body dimensions" as a special effect or as a limitation on the power. Season to taste !DrFURIOUS!
