Superheroes of The Trust OOC Thread (Accepting Alts)

IIRC, we got 3 from the opening fight and then the museum/street fight. 1 from the Foundry. And then another one from the fighting on this in game day.

Hmm, I could buy Concealment Visual: Displacement for 2 pp. Since other superfast characters should able to target her normally, that might be worth a drawback - but I'm not sure where exactly that line would be drawn.

Wouldn't it be 4pp? Full visual invisibility is 8pp, because it costs 2 ranks, but 4pp per rank (double the usual cost per rank for full concealment from a sense). Displacement reduces the cost, but I didn't think it reduced it that much...

I'd be starting with normal sight only instead of doing all visual senses. My initial post was not particularlly clear.

Well, displacement would be a good in-theme ability for Star. She could be going so fast that she slips in and out of reality or something like that, so that she appears to be in one place, but is actually slightly to the left of that place.

I was going for more for her moving faster than people can readily track.

 

[kirinke]

Huh. There is that too.

I was considering adding another power to her weather attack array. Maybe tornado.

 

[Victim]

What would that be, Air Control with a Shapeable Area?

 

[Shayuri]

I'd call it a specialized TK. It has a limit where it can only move things in one way...in a spiral towards the center of the effect, and upwards. Then give the Explosion Area.

This makes it exert a gradually increasing force that sucks everything it can upwards and towards the center of the area...which loosely approximates what tornadoes do.

 

[kirinke]

Mmmm. No.

It's in ultimate power under Air Control. Page 133


Tornado:
You can whip up a powerful vortex of wind that causes damage in a wide area, acting like a blast with the area burst modifier. This tornado continues inflicting damage on the affected area as longas you concentrate on it (giving the effect a concentration duration) Damage bonus is half your Air cdontrol rank, rounded down and the tornado's radius is five times its damage bonus in feet. So Air control 8 for example has a damage bonus of +4 and a radius of 20 feet.






I dunno. It's basically an area attack, she already has Hail. I'm kinda grasping a straws on what to put it towards.

 

[Shayuri]

You -could- do it that way.

It'd be simpler, no question.
