Insight's Emerald City Knights - OOC

I believe the only proper response is..

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_THfem71xsE]DBZ - Vegeta's Power Up/Final Flash, Against Recoome - Ocean/FUNI/Kai Dub Comparison. - YouTube[/ame]

Hmmm - very good questions...

1) I'm not sure what Insight had in mind and I'm not good at down grading the villains as of yet, so everyone should be a PL10 superhero.

2) A little of both actually once I get a feel for your character I will use them to make suggestions and such. I also will need to look over what they can do and such before I get involved with using them for RP.

3) Go right ahead. I think we will be tweaking all these characters during this fight and have them ready for when we start the first module.

Excellent news HolyMan. I have not had any luck in actually playing these modules. All the other times the game has crashed and burned before the intro is over.

OK, so I've posted the full-powered/upgraded version of Jacie to the RG. 2 points unspent.

One note, I made a Feature: Showoff/Effortless Effort(One use of Extra Effort that doesn't cause Fatigue)
I based this off the Luck advantage, which simulates a Hero Point re-roll. This feature basically simulates the other primary use of Hero points (Negating the fatigue of extra effort).
Is that ok?

Also, redoing my IC post to reflect changes in character.


[MENTION=59043]Walking Dad[/MENTION], was looking over Greyhound, and noticed your Super speed/Super healing power. It looks like an Alternate Effect, is that correct? So basically each round you decide to either be super-fast or fast healing?
Intriguing.

Yes, it is like focusing his speed inwards to his regenerative functions. It takes enough concentration to exclude extreme running or doing quick routine tasks, but he can still fight.
His biggest weakness are attacks not against dodge/parry and that he has no real ranged attack option.

Fixing up Michelle's 150pp version. Sorry!

COST: 46 Abilities + 15 Skills + 6 Advantages + 69 Powers + 14 Defenses = 150/150

Background:
Michelle is from a working class family in rural Canada, and her demanding work ethic is almost entirely based on her desire to escape that background and never return to it. She has an unshakable faith in herself, and an equally
relentless drive to master her full potential and capitalize on it. At her worst she is arrogant and unforgiving, often insensitive to the feelings or plight of others. At her best, she has an enormous drive to succeed, demanding no less of herself than of others and is an engine of brilliant, out-of-the-box ideas.

Unfortunately though, it has been very difficult for her to get ahead in her chosen field of finance. Hampered in part by her own overconfident recklessness, and in part by institutional resistance and opportunistic bosses, Michelle has not been able to advance nearly as far or as fast as she'd like. Currently she is the administrative assistant to a vice president in an investment bank, having moved to Emerald City in search of better prospects.[/sblock]

So how did Darth Emo (Yes she's gonna keep calling him that. ) hit Jacie's +11 dodge with a 15?

So that's it. Everytime I see a defense stat they didn't have a plus.

That little "+" makes everything fit now. So you need to roll a defense.

Off to work will update tonight.

Re-reading my post, I realize I was being very weird with all those actions.

So here's what I'm doing.

Standard action to create illusion and a move to get away. I don't -think- I need a move action to move the illusion, since I can Sustain it without concentration. I'll need to doublecheck.

However, to fire a laser I'd need another standard action. I could use Extra Effort, but then I couldn't use my hero point to reroll unless I took the fatigue.

So I think that's what I'm gonna do. Extra Effort for the laser beam, take the fatigue, then HP to reroll the Bluff.

Hee. It would have been so much simpler just to turn invisible. But working out good tactics will be something she'll have to do with practice.

However, I shall have her telekinetic power focused on the Protection effect, just in case DM picks the right target.
