Gaming W/Jemal: Mutant High

[Relique du Madde]

Which leads to Dave's Crazy Idea, which will probably require someone giving me a breakdown in how Power Stunts work.

1) Eric Power Stunts his Boost power to increase Miranda's TK as much as he can; if he can give her rank 8 TK, she should be able to carry everyone. Actually, his normal 'boost all powers' boost ought to work for that. AND it'd increase her flight a few ranks, too.
2) Miranda carries everyone up to the school.

That'd work really well.

Would we need to do anything to stabilize the injured people besides the TK itself? A panel from the aircraft could be used as a platform so Miranda would be carrying one heavy object instead of a whole bunch of a smaller ones. If that rope is still intact, it could be used to strap people down.

Check this out...

1) Miranda uses her Insubstantial alternate power to turn Cyclops and Eric Insubstantial. Since the AP is not innate, Eric can boost it so she can affect more people (+2 pp to turn the entire group insubstantial, less if Kitty helps out).
2) Eric can then boost Miranda's flight power by 15 points (since it's not innate) which will allow her to make everyone fly (even when knocked out) until she turns the power off. In the case everyone who is unconscious, could then be "pushed" or "dragged" safely since they would be insubstantial.

Flight 4 [23pp] Movement, Move Action (active), Personal Range, Duration: Permanent; 100mph; PF: Progression 3 (10 people); Extras: Affects Others (+1), Affects Corporeal, Continuous (+1);

Drothgery, how much power points would Eric be able to boost miranda's TK abilities by?

Serena unfortuantly won't be much help with the lifting. At best, she might (very unlikely) be able to help out in the school fighting the other mutants/cyborg kid.

Looks like 12pp is the most he can manage, by stunting to get a new temporary alternate power (probably the best thing to do is to drop the range on his boost all powers power to touch to increase it to rank 12, though I could lose the tiring flaw if I boosted just TK instead of all powers). I thought I could manage an 11pp boost to all of her powers via extra effort, but I don't think you can use extra effort an power that's already Tiring.

With her "poke-float*" 12pp translates into her having TK Rank 8. That's a total TK strength of 40 (6 tons max load)! That will be more then enough


*I think that's what the power's name is going to be....

That's about what I was figuring. Though I was doing back of the envelope math for a light load, and figured you'd need a Str of 36 to carry everyone at a light load. I was figuring an average weight of 200 lbs, probably high (Eric, Cyc, and possibly Pyro are heavier than that, but Kitty, Temper, Xian, and Serena are somewhat lighter...), though I forgot about Kitty.

Well, Kitty might be able to cancel her weight via phasing. There's also the weight of the platform though.

If that's the case she and Miranda could cancel the weight of up to half the people (Miranda can turn 2 insubstantial, and I think Kitty could phase at least one other).

We couldn't really strap an insubstantial person to our object though. Sure, the people who normally have that power might be able to touch objects without difficulty thanks to various addons, but the temporary ghosts probably don't have that ability.

Good point.
