Generation Legacy: Part Three

[Hammerhead]

What is it with your games and PCs ending up naked? Did this happen in your 4th Ed game too?

I figured that Emmet would be building his gadgets with...imperfect, shall we say, components. The design calls for one thing, but he's forced to cut every corner possible to make them within budget. Although being indebted a million dollars would be funny, I can't see how he could gain access to that kind of credit, even from the most unethical lenders/investors of all...the VC. Any idea?

I for one welcome our naked PC overlords.

lol, just trying to be realistic. "Unstable molecules" works for Marvel, but a solid fabric that turns to liquid when it's wearer does and back again is a bit beyond the tech level of the setting.

That said, the suit is fairly flexible, and it would have to be an pretty tight squeeze to not fit.

Yeah, this is what I was getting at with it costing a lot less for Emmet than it would for anyone else. I kinda see him as an elite MacGyver

I think finding someone that wanted to invest in someone like Emmet might not be easy, but it wouldn't be impossible. We can keep it as a mysterious benefactor for now if you like.

The thing is, if he can create weapons like that for that little money, I can see a different, more problematic, complication arising...

Same old.

Possible complications:
No duct tape
Lost his pocket knife
Betrayed by John de Lancie
No bike frame available
No small engine available
No old friend or old flame available this week (this might count as a power loss drawback)
Has-been actors with a car from the 50s
Bad, fake accents
Fake bigfoot
Grandfather has a heart attack
Samantha Carter

I miss when Spike used to have MacGyver reruns on...

Anyone keeping up with the comics on Buffy or Angel?

I've been keeping up with the Buffy Comic..didn't hear about Angel till about a month ago.

Mecha-Dawn! LOL.

I sense perhaps another complication, for Kain this time. The stretchy suit isn't a problem, especially for Elongation 2, but if she uses her Insubstantial to go somewhere the suit doesn't fit, it'll have to stay behind.

(And no, I didn't come up with this idea while staring at the picture )

It's SUPPOSED to be like Mr. Fantastic.. and the Insubstantial is so she can 'pour' herself under doors, down pipes, ect.

I would have liked to use Elasticitiy from UP.. but it's a bit pricier and most folks HATE UP. (Granted having GM'd this winter.. it's a definitely a 'must be watched')

Actually, everyone here likes UP. I haven't built a character without out it since it came out a few years ago. I have made extensive use of it with Clover for all the nifty little tricks it has under weather control.

 

[KaintheSeeker]

I might look in it a bit.. see if I can tweak her using UP then.

From the first page:

You can use Ultimate Power if you have access, and in fact, I encourage that.
