Doorway is a great power, now you can just go into a bank vault without having to crack it.
Or just walk out of a prison/ or forcefield.

Sir_Spirit

Yeah, also using Prosilver Dark.
Not a huge fan of the new look. it's really skinny?
EDIT: just tried out a bunch of em, and I actually like the GamerDark so far. It's a bit wider like the ColouredLIght one and has the pros of the ProsilverDark in terms of lack of brightness and what not.

Sir_Spirit

Well, I would say a person with the power can release a subject into a harmful atmosphere, or place. However, if you are making a PC in a superhero game that's not heroic and would be OOC in most cases. THe main size limiter would be your size, so having APS:Shadow/water/goo makes this MUCH more use...

Sir_Spirit

Maybe? If it did, it would only work at level 9, meaning if you got to level 10+ it wouldn't increase. OTOH, if they player were willing to have it work at their level, it would go up in level, but again that's a GM rulling. I think RAW (Rules As Written) it would work at level 9 maybe?

Sir_Spirit

Has anyone noticed how weird the armor that they original three Matter Expulsion powers give you is? Instead of having some SDC and an Armor Rating, it just has a Natural AR. It gives you bonus SDC and HP instead. So it either shrugs off attacks or lets you have the full damage, also make syou tough...

Sir_Spirit

But that would be boring, just use it instead.
I'd make a home ruling that if they used the bands to get to the Tower, then the Band's can also take them to exactly the spot the left from{though with the same amount of time having passed}.
But, even if you don't it's still a fun item.

Sir_Spirit

Personally I like the idea that the massive deaths in WW1 awakened ancient Evils, and the Heroes to fight them. Then WW2 exacerbated that, and a new age of heroes was born.

Sir_Spirit

If it is, it's fine with me. It's probably meant to be a Mega-Enchanted Object. But they were very grey-ish about what were and weren't "Mega" heroes/villians stuff.
EDIT:I mean in Armigeddon(SP?) Unlimited.

Sir_Spirit

What's her subtittle say?"A hero on the spectrum"?
Edit: No, on a reread is it Protector of the Spectrum"?

Sir_Spirit

Unrelated to the recent posts, Has anyone combined Bubble Glue's ability to trap someone in a bubble with INDESTRUCTABLE's ability to make said bubble unbreakable.?
Or possably using Create Force Field/Constructs in a similar manner?

Sir_Spirit

Try a Godling Major:Indestructibility(from Rifter 12) Minors: Immune to FOrce/forcefields, Immune to SUPerabilities(like negate super abilities), Immune to mind control/possession. Doorway(who needs Teleportation?Not this guy). You can give them another abilites, either 1 major and 1minor or three m...

Sir_Spirit

If you go just by what is written in the Immortals category, then the Wizard Supreme is terribly weak. What do you think is the strongest option for Immortals? Besides being a Godling as an origin, I mean in terms of power categories from the list. That discussion would take us off topic and derail...

Sir_Spirit

I see no reason why they can't learn spells like a regular wizard/mystic study. They should also be able to sense magic like a the Mystic Studier. As Immortals have lots of skills they can just take the skill that lets them recognize Enchantments, and the other one that lets them recognize monsters....

Sir_Spirit

I will, more on the astral realm topic, that I am glad I am mot the only one who thought of using faeries or Zembakhs, or both, to make super-realm.

Sir_Spirit

If you lose your weapon, I believe the rules state you'll revert back after, like, 72 hours? I can check later. BUt otherwise i agree with Warshield73. Personally I'd house rule that without your weapon you can "release the power" back to the weapon, but you will be stuck in your unpowered...

Sir_Spirit

Swallowing Limbo+APS:Liquid/Ash/Shadow/Light/Goo-Gel/Mercury/Blood/Oil/Tar/etc. The first lets you use your silhouette to envelope people and items in stasis. the power actually suggests a cape can increase this. There is a Shadow Cloak minor power. But with the right APS can let you alter your alte...

Sir_Spirit

One of the published NPCs it is a fairy queen that bestowed the powers. I want to learn more about her The NPC was in the Century Station, One of the top team guys. He is a Mega-Mystically Bestowed. Has like Invulnerability and Supernatural Strength, plus Mega-strength and Tremendous SDC. The Faeri...

Sir_Spirit

Transmutation, Divine Aura, and Grant Powers is a path to cash, sure. Have you ever tried Grant powers, Regeneration, and a flight power? You're the healbot for the muggles on your team, sure, but you also make BANK selling flying outings to corporate bigshots with more money than brains, or saving...

Sir_Spirit

Or just claim your psychics/mages got the Drurik of Grenjarf, The Queeeeble just showed up and gives them it. Or maybe the did something for it. In either case they get to divide their PPE/ISP expenditure by 10, and multiply the amount they should be recovering by 10. And they can cast a spell with ...

Sir_Spirit

Well you can watch your team mates for two rounds until you end combat with cloud of sleep.

Sir_Spirit

Wow three great answers, thanks so much. Flesh Works, in Powers Unlimited 3. That was completely luser error on my part. I even went and checked Flesh Works cause I figured it had to have something before I posted, but evidently I didn't check the third page and there it is clear as day as the last...

Sir_Spirit

Well, keep in mind you have a lot of penalties to make each shot. So I don't see why not. It's probably not the intended idea but doubling damage while making you roll twice with not bonuses seems a fair trade to me. I would just argue you should be able to do a "powershot" since the rules...

Sir_Spirit

Hmm, Read the WORM web serial.
Girl gets control of bugs(basically) and is both hero and villain. Very creative use of Control Insects and Arachnids[nightmare fuel to heroes].

Sir_Spirit

Well, they can start with power armor and lazer weapons, but those are the hardware characters who would have rolled to design/make them and payed for them during character creation. Rather than letting, say, your average mutant have access to power armor and a lazer gun in addition to their super p...

Sir_Spirit

Then you have to decide your powers. Straight magic is troublesome because of Palladium's inconsistent position on magic spells, RAW vs rules as intended and can magic rules/systems from other books be applied here? Psionics+powers will give you more consistent build, or just straight powers. Start...

Sir_Spirit

I would say you can move things around, you just can't directly damage them. Say, by blasting them with your EE:Force minor super-ability. But you can push them in front of a guy firing bullets, or move the bullets to be aimed at them, though who knows if that will work or if the bullets will act we...

Sir_Spirit

OR just take Immunity to Light/lazers.

Sir_Spirit

"Invincibility" or "Indestructibility"? if it's the later, it's in Rifter #12 pg 62. Which means it's not canon and will need GM approval, unless of course you are GM, but it pretty much looks the same as "Invulnerability + teh Cooler" with the very brief description o...

Sir_Spirit

Yeah it ties into the sniper conundrum. Sooner or later people figure out that a lot of RP Hassle can be dodged by sniping enemies from far off. In rifts it's even more effective. Lasers have no kick. You can't see the beam, are silent and have (Nearly) The best range in the game. Y. This is myth, ...

Sir_Spirit

What gets me about the ME powers is, the armor, if depleted or destroyed, can be instantly reapplied, good as new and with a full set of SDC. No it can't. The armor in PU1 doesn't have stats. Having it on gives you bonuses, including HP and SDC bonuses, to YOUR stats. At least the STONE/META/?CRYST...

Sir_Spirit

There is a minor super ability in one of the PU books called Mask, it lets you instantly make a costume.
IF it gets damaged you can dismiss and recreate it.

Sir_Spirit

Hmm, Thanks, I am on youtube more than here these days. I"ll check it out.

Sir_Spirit

Both Rune items and artifacts can generate a Null aura. A ring that did just that and was indesctructible as a lesser rune item would be an artifact. Which ever Rifts book has rules for Rune weapons should have the rules for Null aura if you don't have the Nightbane book with the artifacts in it. I ...

Sir_Spirit

Yeah, just keep their strength number where it is, but now it's supernatural. allowing them to lift/drag more and do more damage.
Though, I would go with Yukon and say they get another major super ability above and beyond what they normally get.

Sir_Spirit

Well, did make an "atlantean prince" who wasn't really a prince the land media just called him that. His mother is an important political/military figure who was also a popular superhero before retiring to raise him. He had landwalking abilities, and was sent to the other heroes city as an...

Sir_Spirit

I just want stats for his shot-gun axe.

Sir_Spirit

I made a character with a strength of like high 80ies low 90ies. A Godling immortal with supernatural strength major power. IIRC. There are various ways to get it really high, you just have to kinda game the system a little. Mind you having a supernatural quality of strength that's in the 30ies or l...

Sir_Spirit

HUH, OK I love Geb, And his stuff. Hmm, be kinda cool if a random dimensional effect sent a teenage superhero, or regular teenager to his realm. The teen reminds him of his wife/or son in a happier time and actually starts to pull him out of his funk for a moment. He agrees to send them back home, b...

Sir_Spirit

Huh, I would have cribbed from the Juicer UPrising book myself but interesting....

Sir_Spirit

I would add the Spirit Attack spell from Through The Glass Darkly supplement for Nightbane. It lets you kill/attack entities and if you are going to be summoning them it's good incase a nasty one gets free...

Sir_Spirit

You don't, assuming you mean using the optional rule from The Rifter. You shoud ask your gm whats acceptable. Generally, I think it means a class that doesn't get super abilities, like a mage or hardware or things like the supersleuth or ancient Master classes. So then you combine that with a class ...

Sir_Spirit

On a side note: Someone once said Instant Wardrobe was a worthless power. I assure you, it's not. It's an extra dimensional place to store my stuff, loots, clothes, weapons, etc. You get a space at each level and the spaces can all hold your level x 20 lbs. each. So if Ragamuffin steals some high e...

It was Growth, SF and APS ICE.(hence Comet).

Sir_Spirit

I'd use the Immune to High Speed Impacts (not the actual powers name though its something like that) plus sidestep and Sonic speed.

Or go the other way, use XO Speed, and Sidestep as minors and save your big power for Vibration, A Time power, or Control Kinetic Energy.

Sir_Spirit

I am pretty sure you can't do any of that. by the book. Cuz you can't do chemical compounds IIRC?

Sir_Spirit

Search this forum/site for Kittenstomps tables of doom.

Sir_Spirit

I forget the name, don't have book on me ATM, but it seemed like something that could really be exploited in combination with a lot of other powers since you could limit risk to yourself by throwing your mini-clones out there without any permanent penalties if they died, unlike Multiple Selves. Wha...

Sir_Spirit

Rifter 12 has some superpowers and character ideas that didn't make into a book yet. Including a couple of super teams.

Sir_Spirit

Axelmania wrote:If you look at the mechanics of the ability, Suggestion (Hypnosis) is basically Hypnotic Suggestion. I'm not sure why Carella renamed it.

Because default Nightbane had no super psionics, so he was demoting a major power. So he just gave it a new name and pretended it was different.

Sir_Spirit

There is a super psionic power called Hypnotic Suggestion. Not sure if Nightbane has super psionics. But it's out there in some game book. Notably the vampires in Nightbane originated from a Rifts worldbook, though they didn't have a repulsion to garlic that these ones do. My point is Hypnotic Sugge...
