Generation Legacy the Next Generation of OOC

That would screw more then just Legion.

Legion is the only one without a body though. If all the Legions are neutralized no more Legions. Then again Tommy might be able to focus it better with his super science to only work on mental powers.

I still forsee Tommy building himself a device to make him totally immune to mental powers, or possibly with an area neutralize. I mean assuming he is still himself after this, he is going to shore up everything he can to make sure no one thats being mind-controlled ever gets near him again.

Which raises an interesting question. Based on the dialog Tommy's higher functions are protected but things like gross motor control aren't. Legion considers this something that he can conquer with time, which he might be right about given how good he is at this stuff. Does Legion just seize control and displace the native consciousness, or is the consciousness reprogrammed partially or completely into Legion? If so, does Legion get to keep the powers of the bodies? Especially mental powers like Tommy's brain? If Legion keeps the powers, than he could go around harvesting useful abilities. Imagine Legion with Tommy's intellect going out collecting.

Of course are we looking at a single hivemind here that's in constant contact with its various constituent parts, essentially a single mind with numerous bodies? That could be a real doomsday scenario. Or does Legion rewrite the local brains to spawn clones of its own psyche that while working with a single purpose are still separate entities?

What is Legion's network topology? Is he a workgroup? Client-server?

Aw screw it, we can just arrest him for violating habeus corpus.

Neutralize isn't automatic though. And, as a general rule of thumb, people with mental powers often have decent mental defenses (ie, Will save). Neuro might be able to resist the effects of the power, or device - if a massive area negator is even possible.

And that assumes that there's something to neutralize. You negate instant powers after the fact with it. It doesn't work on Innate stuff. If the damage is already done, then there might not be a way to get rid of him so easily.

Nullify might not do it, but boost would. Boost: Immunity(Mental effects) 10 would though, it'd purge all mental effects in place. Then again it'd be harder to come up with on the fly. This would be the psi-scramblers from the marvel universe pretty much.

Something like this:

Device 1: Psiscrambler
Boost: Immunity(Mental effects) 10 [Total Fade; Wearer Only, Unreliable (3 uses) (-2); triggered 1; 3 ranks/pp + 1pp = 5pp]

basically its a wearable device that grants the wearer 3 1 minute periods of immunity to mental effects before it needs a recharge. It activates immediately when the user is targeted by a mental effect.

Since as a player I knew something may or may not be up with Sami, if you consider Charlotte's action metagaming, I'd understand and would be happy to edit it out. I feel that, considering how curious she is and that strange event that Sami came away fairly unscathed, Charlotte has reasons to question him. Also, everyone else left and there wasn't anything for her to do but be nosy/blunt/foolhardy

Edit-The wiki is cool, I have finals all this week so my posting will be somewhat irregular, but I'll add up Charlotte's stats and such soon enough.

Info on this website would be really cool: http://www.angelfire.com/rpg2/pjd/ and after school gets out, I'd be happy to get some of the information updated as well.

I expect an influx of M&M games after X-men 3 comes out

One can hope. It just happens I have this electric-powered, Oxford-educated Doctoral candidate in medieval history sitting off all by his lonesome.

Holy crap, that's still up there? I forgot it existed. I do still have it on my hard drive though, come to think of it. Yeah, transfering some of that stuff is a good idea.

Like the one after the first X-Men? I can believe that.

Pretty much, should be interesting to see if the theory holds true

The issue is nearly over, well almost sort of kind
