Monitor Duty (Freedomverse OOC)

alternate dimensions is a slippery slope. Basically, it is up to the GM to determine what is "adjacent" to you but in another dimension.

Remote Sensing added I guess is to target those "at range" in another dimension.

Again how things are adjacent and at range in OTHER DIMENSIONS seems rather arbitrary.

I think they are saying that another dimension is not "here", and thus is a remote location, even if the place in that dimension corresponds to "here".

Forgot something.

"Hands as Weapons" in a grittier campaign this would be cool. But in 4 color superhero action there will be no penalty for not having a weapon.

"Esoteric style" I like, and I meant to keep as a flat benefit, but forgot as a ran low on points. If You want to find a point and tweak please feel free. I will tell you in the 1st adventure this probably won't come into play and it might be a good XP purchase.

Nah. There are instances for example of Astral Form being "here" but technically not being in the same dimension. No remote sensing is needed to target. Also 4th dimensional form etc all are "present" but also in another dimension. Alternate Earths vibrating at different rates but all occupying the same space.

From the Dimension Power Profile

Both (Dimension Travel and Dimension extra) are also based on the idea that effects bridge the
dimensions in the same proximate location; when you
use a Dimensional effect to “reach” or perceive into
another dimension, you affect the area roughly equivalent
to your physical location in the dimension you
occupy. Likewise, when you move between dimensions
with Dimensional Travel, you shift from your location in
one dimension to the proximate location in the other
(and back). Being able to reach distant points in other
dimensions requires the same kind of effects and modifiers
used to extend distance in your home dimension: Extended
Range or Senses, Remote Sensing, and Teleport,
to name a few.

I'm guessing that isn't in the SRD.

New attempt at the power:

EYE OF THE JADE TIGER: (6pp)

Senses 5:

Detect (Mental): Chi (1 rank), Accurate (2 ranks), Ranged (1 rank), Extra: Dimensional (1 dimension: Astral - +1pp)
Danger Sense (Mental)(1 rank)
Total cost of Senses: 5 ranks @ 1pp/rank +1pp = 6
​

Note: Ranged is included because Detect is touch by default.

Permanent Growth and Shrinking net a +0 modifier as it is +1 to make it continuous and then -1 to make it permanent. Unfortunately, only Continuous powers can be made permanent.

Yep. It was my GM interpretation, corroborated by a game supplement. Blah for Mental Sense! How dare they not make it Ranged by default! But yes this would be a correct interpretation.

It has been awhile. Do games keep character sheet threads here?

Yes, usually marked with "RG" or "Rogues Gallery" or some variant.

Yep.

I usually go with something creative. I have an Attendance Sheet posted for my Academy game. A Casualty List for my Tomb of Horrors game. I don't think "Rogues Gallary" would make much sense. Maybe a "Roster" or something.
