Apologies for talking about something related to WD's game here, but I wanted to make sure Shayuri saw it. Shayuri - Please don't be put off from joining what looks to be a very cool game, just because I've been going back and forth with WD and Jemal over character creation. I'm pretty sure...

I had planned on sometimes summoning before combat, but had assumed that the minion rule would be in place to keep things manageable. It would be nice to be able to give them all the same order with a single action. That should work OK under minion rules. But I also would certainly understand if...

Even with the precise extra, the rules for Create mention that the GM determines the tech limit. The same can be assumed for Transform. So I don't think that it can or should be a solution to all problems. I'm hoping for some leeway when it comes to making 'death'-traps. But beyond that I don't...

I certainly don't mind removing the increased mass on transform, that kind of scale was beyond the original concept anyway. And if the versatility of Transform and Create need to need toned down beyond that, perhaps add the activation flaw to them? That way they would have less combat utility...

Enoch keeps looking from Grid to Felix to the living bomb guy with an uneasy expression deepening on his face. "So spy stuff isn't exactly in my wheelhouse, but with a couple of us hurt and fallout boy ready to really light up the Vegas strip ... um, shouldn't we be heading for the secret...

Well, he's wildly overconfident, hopelessly dramatic, and has a pathological need to be the center of attention. So unless circumstances made it clear that being in the middle of the action would be suicidal and counterproductive, he'd want to stay center stage with the group. Once in a while he...

Background for the Singularity My so called peers called me mad. But I showed the those myopic ivory tower fools! My Mind-to-Nanocloud System is not merely a technological revolution but a revolution in how humanity interacts with his environment. And the fact that my unveiling of the true...

Doh! I didn't even look at Sustained since I was thinking that going from none/permanent, for an effect that has no particular disadvantages when perm, to reaction/continuous was essentially an even trade. After all, the difference in utility, aside from being able to take certain flaws on the...

Here's the current version of my character. The Singularity - PL 10 Abilities 16pp Strength -1, Stamina 0, Agility 0, Dexterity 0, Fighting 0, Intellect 5, Awareness 0, Presence 4 Advantages 10pp Connected, Defensive Roll 4, Eidetic Memory, Inventor, Skill Mastery: Technology, Well-informed...

My thinking was that while he does have nanites both in his body and floating in a large cloud around him, he can't make them do anything without an interface device. But I hadn't detailed what exactly that device is. It might be funny for it to be a SQUID under a toupee ala Strange Days...

Yes, it was Alan Scott in Earth 2. Sadly the comic is kind of meh. And the writer kills of GL's boyfriend in the first or second issue. The Midnighter is probably a better example of a mainstream gay superhero. His early issues on The Authority were made of awesome. And yes, good riddance.

OK, variable sounds like a fine way to handle it. And contrary to Tuna, its at least as comics appropriate as invention. Edit - And with the requires a skill roll flaw, Variable is actually cheaper than the Quickness :p

I had a few questions at the end of my character post. Since then it occurred to me that The Singularity could, as currently statted, build a device (up to 8 points as a free action) to get PL appropriate accuracy or whatnot. But, I'm already assuming that this would be limited to one item per...

Here's my first pass at The Singularity. His background and bots are still to come. But I wanted to get a build up so that I'd have a clearer idea of what changes/nerfs would be necessary before getting to far on his minions (of Dooooom! Actually their builds will be much tamer than his). The...

Enoch starts to shrug, then stops abruptly, trying to look at Felix without turning his head. "I'm ready, assuming Felix doesn't sever my spine. You know, accidentally on purpose. Unless things get super hairy, its probably better el gato loco sits this one out. But, you never know, he may...

For the powers, I would ideally like to have a few versions of Summon in an array (so either a bunch of PL ~8 fodder bots, or one heroic robot avatar, or a few bomb-bots). The character himself, again ideally, wouldn't be much for slugging it out. But would instead operate remotely, be...

I'm interested in throwing my hat into the ring. The concept I have percolating is a versatile nanotech-based mad scientist with robot minions. He'd definitely have a villainous mastermind persona, but would be much more into gloating and deathtraps than actually killing enemies. Does that sound...

Enoch yelps involuntarily when Felix leaps for him, bringing his arms up defensively far too late to ward of the giant housecat. For a few moments he tries to re-position his arms with the intent of trying to dislodge the cat. But quickly realizes that from the awkward angle any attempt to do so...

insane Martian Manhunter?
