[QUOTE="Brother Shatterstone, post: 1566644, member: 13442"] Nor should it be. :) Any additions to the quirk that you think need to be added works for me. :) I do think you should give some consideration to making all of the characters take this weakness. It fits the game if you ask me and they had two years to do it all subtle like. :) I give my full support to this and hopefully mine will be something Velmont likes... I've been told its rather unique more than once... If that's good or bad is yet to be seen... :\ The character is basically done but still needs some work so instead of posting the whole thing I thought I would just post stuff that I know you would want to see now. Anyhow character was pulled from a game that didn’t make it on another board. Anyhow there where numerous people that had to approve the character so I think all of this should be okay but you of course have final say Velmont. :) The Extra Attack is a power stunt that is show for the weapon power. (pg. 92) Things of note: Paralysis, is not on the list that is shown for this power stunt but it is a touch attack with no range. It was just the best choice for the character and I still think this. Like all of her powers based upon Incorporeal she must be incorporeal to attack with Paralyzation. I know the above looks crazy but it’s relatively simple. What your looking at is flawed Super Charisma, that might not be flawed, but it is also the full cost of Super Charisma. Why would I this? Honestly the answer is pretty simple this is the best in character approach to this. I never really liked the flaws that where in the M&M book. I mean not all guys are attracted to women, and not all women are attracted to women. So why should the flaws they present make you immune based upon what your sex is instead of what sex you’re attracted to? So her super charisma, SC, is flaws out that only people who are attracted to women find her to be everything we associate with charisma. To them she’s a natural leader, and a hell of a looker, etc. So why not just leave it at that? Well to be honest, I wanted her attractiveness to be so ampped up that even those not attracted to women might pause and be mesmerized be her beauty. (Hence the serious flawed out emotion control… The range of this power is basically what I would consider sight… I wasn’t sure how far it should go or how better to flaw it so it might need some work but right now her “area” of effect is 300 feet. (The length of a football field.) Anyhow, someone not attracted to females would get a will check to resist this. [COLOR=Cyan]Permanent[/COLOR]? As a flaw? This is probably the touchiest part of this but this isn’t something she can control, it’s simply part of her… For lack of a better word its “natural.” Now, why this is a flaw instead of an extra? Well simply put this would be a great power to have for like 5 minutes and then your going to get tried of people always gawking at you, hitting on you, or worse trying to force themselves upon you. Remember you don’t control their actions, she might be able to escape via diplomacy based upon her charisma, but if a violent rapist was attracted to you it could quickly become a flaw… So that’s why this is a flaw.

I mean PC are always given there own choice, so they can chose to be effected or totally ignore this effect. It's not like it's domination. :) This simply means she can heal others by using her own body as her own body can heal the damage quicker than they can. Lastly there was one other effect that she could do with her body that wasn’t really written on the sheet. She could change her eye, hair, and make subtle changes to her skin color, from Nordic pale with no tan to a beach bunny with a tan, because of her ability to control her body on a molecular level. Everyone knows it’s her, its gives no disguise bonus nor was it a disguise in by itself, it was simply just a byproduct of her abilities.

If not I understand but once again it is all FX. (Special effect, no in game effect other than for roleplaying.) So Velmont, what good to go and what would you like to see fixed? [/QUOTE]
