A pretty big one.In THEORY, there's no reason you couldn't Summon a minion that hands you all kinds of powers using Affects Others or similar modifiers. In PRACTICE this is limited by the GM, and how the GM wants to handle the power.Technically speaking, the GM gets to say what you can summon. Like, you can say "I can summon angels," but the GM decides what angels can do. Most GMs I've played with will let a player design minions, because it's less of a pain that way...but when designing, keep in mind that the GM gets final approval. If your Superhorse has Impervious Toughness 20 with Affects Others and you wear it like a backpack? That might be considered a problem. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />The stuff you're talking about, like a magical steed that can carry you to other dimensions...that sort of thing is usually much easier to get away with...especially if it doesn't step on the toes of an existing PC.</blockquote>
