[QUOTE="jkason, post: 4840374, member: 2710"] Posted Gavin to the RG with a few small changes. Mostly, I realized that the narrative piece I wrote for meeting Taylor had me describing some of his abilities a little differently than the crunch would reflect. I don't think any of it's major: * I took out the second level of Track and made Gavin's pain sense Acute instead (he recognized that James had pain in his chest and leg, which would seem to be Acute observations if I'm understanding the game definition of those). * I gave his Healing the Total extra and the Distracting flaw. The point total doesn't shift, since they balance each other out. I figured the 'rush' I keep describing when he pain-eats was a likely detriment. I'd been toying with an obsession / addiction drawback, but 'addicted to healing' felt rather contrary to the spirit of drawbacks, whereas this one has more reliable negative consequences. Total didn't seem too unbalancing to me, since it requires higher rolls the more you heal, so it's not like every time he touches someone they're whole again or anything. I do, though, have a Dodge question. Gavin didn't take any Dodge feats, but the rules say that half the Defense bonus (rounded down) is your dodge bonus. Does that mean that Gavin losing his dodge bonus lowers his defense to 14, or that his max Defense is actually 22 (if the latter, does PL restrict that back down to 18)? I wasn't quite clear on how that worked. \ thanks, jason [/QUOTE]
