New Mutants and Masterminds Campaign 'Opening Moves' ooc thread

[Thanee]

Thanee- Hmmmm. I will have to give careful consideration on this. Include it as an extra now, but be sure to spell out the exact mechanics with an asterick if you will.

Ok, though there isn't really much in terms of mechanics, just swapping corporeal and incorporeal (incorporeal is the default state and corporeality can be achieved via concentration, just the opposite of normal).

There is actually a Flaw which does something very similar (permanent incorporeality), but the main flaw there is, that you cannot become corporeal at all, which doesn't work, of course. I just want an Extra which does the same without that limitation. I guess you could still get Ghost Touch with that permanent Flaw, so my version is actually weaker (but fits better).

I'll just put it together how I think it should look like and then you can tell me what you are not comfortable with.

One more question.

Incorporeal requires to specify one physical attack form, which can still hurt you.

Would it be ok to pick a Power Source (i.e. Mystical) instead of a specific attack form. All attacks with that Power Source would then be effective even when incorporeal. Seems to fit better than Energy Blast or something like that.

Thanee, you might want to check the new errata. Permanent has been split up into Permanent, which is a flaw (can't push the power, can't turn it off, but it can be drained) and the extra Innate (you make any save vs. Drain, Transfer or Neutralize automatically). Just taking Innate (you'll need to buy up duration to continous first) seems to me like a good fit for characters for which the standard is to have their power on.

Since you said "everyone who has posted a concept", I've thrown a post in the RG. I'll remove it if I misunderstood.

Hellzon- your good

Elfy- I'm seeing a lot of supplemental material. Any way you might be able to slim it down to core rules only (for now)?

 

[jasamcarl]

Thanee- I think you can reverse it and keep the cost the same, though I'll get back to you.

Oh, and I'll go with Bay City.

 

[Elfy]

Rather than take away from my concept as I see her, I'd prefer to scan the relevant sections of the suplimental material and email the scans to you. Would that be okay instead?

 

[Elfy]

BTW Hellzon, 'Leng' isn't a Japanese name - it's Chinese =)

 

[Thanee]

Ok, stats are up now. Let me know what you think and whether anything is terribly wrong.

Bye
Thanee

Thanks for the info, elfy.

Looks good Thanee.


Karl-you can use the partial flaw, if you wish.
