A lot of straight male players that grew up reading Claremont in the 80s? :) Amen. The delays give me mixed feelings about having TV writers write for comics. I don't blame them for prioritizing their main career (and it probably pays a few orders of magnitude better) but the publishers are...

Ok. I was looking for something much dirtier than that. :) I've read some of the spotlight issues and that was a good one. I hear good things about Runaways but I've never taken the time.

I'm not actually sure what the innuendo would have been. Does it involve mispronouncing Gabe's name as "Grab?" It took me two reads to get Asguardian too. "As soon as people start finding out about you and Teddy they're going to-" What? His name's Asguardian and he's in a relationship with-...

Well first we have to punch out all the dinosaurs and wreck the mall. Twice. Then we can get to blowing up the jungle. :)

That's some pretty country we're going to be living in.

Say Agamon, are we going to have a Rogues' Gallery thread for the finalized character sheets and such?

I'm not Agamon, but I love it.

Yowza.

Well, Jerry's in love. :)

They could always learn Chinese together. :) Tao's only been studying it for three or four years. He's probably had a fair bit of speaking experience in the context of his youth group with no-English social events or something (he'd love those) but he's definitely more at the level of being able...

Can you tell I'm always the guy people ask to proof their writing? :)

Italian or Spanish? Greek if she's more classically inclined and you want to stick to living languages. German makes a lot of military school sense but so do Russian and Arabic. If you want something more invested in Britishness qua Britishness, there's always Welsh, Cornish, or Gaelic. If you...

I think we're dealing with ambiguous pronoun usage. Agamon said you'd be familiar with the Paragons NPCs as an owner of the book, but you took Aggie's "you" to mean "you, Clover" and not "you, Shalimar".

Additional annoying questions for Agamon. Is Mudaba Adin still in Eritrea? What's the environment around the school like? Terraformed tropical? Arid desert? Any nearby lakes? Did the school send along any brochures or viewbooks to give the PCs an idea of what the place is like? Obviously...

Ok, here's some complete stats. Baseline: Jared "Jerry" Rowcroft Tao Lin PL: 6 (80 pp) ABILITIES: STR: 14 (+2) DEX: 16 (+3) CON: 16 (+3) INT: 10 (0) WIS: 10 (0) CHA: 16 (+3) SKILLS: Acrobatics 4 (+7) Bluff 2 (+5) (+4 if Attractive applies) Computers 1 (+1) Diplomacy 4 (+7) (+4 if...

That's how it worked when I was growing up in a small town in the quasi-Midwest. There's not much shouting until the status quo is being upset. Then things get mean fast.

That's a good idea. It would probably be a pretty uncommon drawback (how common are power nullifiers?) but I could see it being pretty severe. Flavor-wise it already sounds like a Constitution drain what with it being massive disruptions to his bodily functions. As a permanent power I guess it...

Are you sure? The core book doesn't list a save under Darkness Control or Obscure. Under Obscure selective is the featured Power Feat. The obscure effect description in UP doesn't have a save listed either... Oh, I see it. Selective Attack is one of the extras suggested under the Obscure effect...

Argh, I lost the post I had half-written. Short version: I recall the fight against Tina now that it's been mentioned and damn she was annoying even when she kept her mouth shut. Good point. I got started on the regen as a thematic thing fitting in with the sun fueling the internal shadow and...

Yeah, but most of his stuff is from genuine charisma and personal style. It's the flip side of Mark's sex symbol status. It'll be a bit of a challenge for me to play someone with good people skills. :)
