[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 5945131, member: 9026"] Actually funny you should mention that, as I hadn't posted the background yet, but she actually is a sports enthusiast, she became a gamer b/c she's better at it. I was actually pondering taking special movement: Free Running(Parkour), but realized that all of my super-power concepts have movement modes which would make it useless (Speed, Flight, Teleport). Here's the updated character sheet with background: [sblock=Jacie]Jacie - PL 5 (75PP) Abilities: 24pp STR 0 STA 1 (2pp) DEX 1 (2pp) AGI 2 (4pp) FGT 0 INT 4 (8pp) AWE 2 (4pp) PRE 2 (4pp) Offenses: Initiative: +2 (2 agi) Melee Attack: +0 (0 fgt) Ranged Attack: +0 (0 dex) Specific Attacks: Defenses: (9 pp) Dodge: +3 (1 base + 2 agi) Parry: +1 (1 base + 0 fgt) Toughness: +1 (1 sta) Fort +3 (2 base + 1 sta) Will +7 (5 base + 2 awe) Skills: (66 ranks= 33pp) Acrobatics(+5/3), Athletics (+5/5), Deception(+12/10), Insight(+12/10), Investigation(+10/6), Perception(+12/10), Persuassion(+10/8), Technology(+6/2), Expertise: Eclectic Knowledge (+10/6), Expertise: Gaming (+10/6) Advantages: 8 pp Attractive, Fearless*See Complications*, Luck 2, Taunt, Skill Mastery: Deception Benefit: Status & Wealth 1 (Pro Gamer), *Quirk/Limitation: Jacie's status and wealth are both dependant on her attending (and doing well in) Gaming tournaments a few times a year. Also her status is only useful with geeks and e-sports fans.* Benefit: Eclectic Knowledge *Jacie does a lot of studying and reading and has gathered a lot of information on a wide array of subjects: Make in place of expertise checks, but ONLY to know things, not do things* Powers: Feature: Special Effect (Music) (1pp) - There always tends to be a fitting song on whenever something important/interesting is happening in Jacie's life. Complications: Motivation: The Challenge - Jacie is always looking for the next challenging thing to conquer. Arachnaphobic - Jacie is fairly jaded, and not much tends to phase her.. except spiders.. *shudder* Caffeine Addiction - As a Pro Gamer, Jacie practically lives off Caffeine, and doesn't do so well without it. COST: 24 Abilities + 33 Skills + 8 Advantages + 1 Powers + 9 Defenses = 75/75 Background: Jacie was a highschool athlete, loving the thrill and adrenaline rush. She wasn't bad at it, but never quite the best, either, having always been more mentally gifted than physically. She has tried her hand at several sports - Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, Soccer, and then some more extreme sports, including Parkour, Snowboarding, Sky diving, and Base Jumping. Her boyfriend in college introduced her to the gaming circuit, and she found that the rush of a good game was very similar, but that there was one major difference - In this, her intellect was a great advantage. After about a year of gaming, Jacie had made it into the pro circuit, and has been playing in professional tournaments for over a year now. The 24 year old red-head still tries to keep in shape and occasionally enjoys her less cerebral activities when she has a chance. [/sblock] Also every skill has a purpose related to her background/profession. Athletics/Acrobatics: Sports enthusiast. Investigate: Gamers need research to keep up to date. Perception: Situational Awareness is key in fast paced games. Deception(Along with Skill mastery/Taunt Advantages): Mind games! Insight: Good, educated guesswork can turn a bad situation into a good one. Persuasion: OK, this one's just me - can't bring myself to play a pretty girl without it. [/QUOTE]
