  1. In a society where people can go from one planet to another at will (like we cross the street), what is the incentive for someone to try to save the planet that they are living on? After all in such a society if the planet that someone is living on gets to the point that it is unlivable (or encounters the Death Star), simply gather your stuff and move onto another planet that will allow you to live in some manner. Don't forget the toilet paper!
  2. Re: Attractiveness - Comeliness Vs. Striking Appearance The biggest problem with this discussion is that we are talking about an abituray subject that each person will rate slightly differently. I will look at a person, a piece of art, a statue, or basically anything else and rate it one way, and you will look at the same person/art/statue/whatever and rate it differently. That makes it very difficult to come up with a hard number that will state how every person in a game sees something. This is greatly different from a stat like STR where X kg = this STR and Y kg = that STR and everyone can agree on that. (DEX actually suffers from this same problem but that is leading into another thread.)
  3. Re: The "parasite" or "symbiote" alien race Here is the way that I would go about handling this situation: Is the parasite/simbite internal (ala trill)? Then simply write the character up as norm like the other posters above have stated. The simbite would be the reason for the char having knowlege that he should not normally possess (such as personal history from before he was born) or powers/weaknesses that normally do not exist in that race. They tend to develop long-lasting relationships with thier hosts since they stay bonded together for the life of both (onless one has a shorter lifespan than the other then the longer one will get a new host when the old one dies). Is the parasite/simbite external (ala a leach)? These are actuaccly the easiest to work with, but also the most vulerable to attacks. They will move quickly from host to host and need some form of mental domination to take control of the new host (unless the host is for some reason willing), in addion to all their other abilities. Ususlly these simbiates are used as villains but nothing says that must be the way, there can be heroic members in this catageory. Hopefully this helps you determine and not cnfuse you further.

  15. Re: Current Champions or will 4th Edition suffice? Personally I cannot see any reason to move to from one edition to another. From edititon one to three basically it was a refomatting of what came before. Edition four was basically a combineing of all the different versions of Hero (Danger International, CyberHero, Champions, etc). Fifth Edition basically correctied problems that appeared inb fourth. Then Sixth came along and made several changes (mostly in the area of char creation). Despite this there should be no problem with moving from one edituon to another. One can take a char created for fifth edition (FREd) and plunk him in in sixth (or fourth edition [bBB]) with little to no mods needed.
