Toki, mind if I do a bit more of an overhaul? Shal has brought a number of fairly significant errors to my attention.

Works for me

Ok, I'll work up a shiny clean sheet for you tonight. Shal and I got the numbers done earlier (thanks, Shal!) but I'll have to transcribe.

Expect the next issue to debut around the mIddle of the coming week... in the meanwhile I will be leveling my new warlock in World of Warcraft

The new Mark is up in the Rogues' Gallery. Feel free to pick apart at him.

Now I have to go make some modifications to the picture of him I made up with the CoH program.

Okay.. apparently my subscriptiosn are still hosed..anyone wanna post the link to the Rogue'
s gallery so I can update it?

I like my 'lock's new pet.. I find it funny to listen to her snap her whip all the time.

I'm not very familiar with the new rules yet, but I was curious if Mark's equipment should instead be a Device power? Just wondering on what the difference is, Equipment seems to be a very cheap way to rack up PPs (it's not abused in this case by any means but for future balance I'm curious). Mark's stats look good to me, though

That was one of the things I was trying to do with Cassie.. a small pack of knives for her throwing mastery.

The armor is equivalent to the tactical vest in the book, just adding the subtle feat since its suppoused to represent that skin tight uniform. I figured that would be ok to use.

A gun is Equipment. If you can pick up a normal gun, and shoot so accurately it does 5 extra damage before using feats, then it's a Device. Or if your gun fires antimatter bullets in the modern day.

Also, Equipment has no story protection. The GM can blow it up and all you get is a hero point. Sure, you can get assigned new equipment. However, running around with -5 Toughness because your Tac Vest barbebued in the initial area attack for a big fight will probably cost you that HP and then some. Equipment is better for secondary effects than as part of one's main combat package. NVGs, flashbangs, flash goggles, a backup attack mode like a gun (or throwing knives) are cool.

But I wouldn't rely on Equipment for something my character NEEDS. It will get blown up, and then you'll be in trouble.
