Dice [OOC] real hero hours

[Sara Sidereal]

now that im thinking about it, i want it to be a running gag that he doesn't even have a secret identity, but every time his name comes up some loud noise happens so nobody in the team knows his real name

lmao

 

[KingGoblin]

Are we still waiting for TetsuKnife ? Otherwise, yeah, I am eager to start.

Oh you're right! Tetsu are you still interested? If so, don't take the previous posts as implying time pressure. Take as much time as you need to get your sheet up.

 

[Sara Sidereal]

Would you guys object if I converted everyone's characters to the latest version of the rules? I will of course notify you if anything significant changes about your character.

It's just kind of a headache going back and forth between the pdfs when I'm double-checking how powers work and that kind of thing.

 

[KingGoblin]

I don't mind. Just let me know what changes, and I am happy.

 

[Draidden]

No problem.

I kind of have my guy have amnesia. I did not put it on his flaws because he does have memory of the last several thousand years from when he woke up in a dirt hole. He has no idea of his origins beyond that. It is something that could come into play later. I was not sure if that would qualify for the amnesia flaw. If you think it does I can add that to his flaws.

Sure, go ahead

That’s cool. Let me know if anything changed.

Also, if you have a link to the latest version of the rules, please post it. I’d like to purchase a copy.

Going through the sheets again

A Anyr
I get 12 for Zei's edge as opposed to 13. (Perception 4 + Agility 8)

KingGoblin
"Affect others" is called "imbue" now. No difference in points and it has the same effect.

Sizniche
Omni-power cost per rank is reduced from 6 to 5.
Weakness detection cost reduced from 6 to 3.
You have 9 points to spend.

Celestra
Looks good.

Draidden
You're missing a rank for "Unique System - Communications". Your vehicle total comes out to 94 / 100 points at the moment.

As usual, I'll show my work so you can check for mistakes.

THE TENACIOUS TIDE HUNTRESS
THE MYSTICAL MAESTRO
THE ZPECTACULAR ZEI
THE STUPENDOUS SIDESTEP
THE MYSTERIOUS MR. W

 

[Draidden]

The Communications power is just a flat 3 hero points with no rank. At least that is how I am reading it.

Ah yes, see I use this method called "never actually read the goddamn powers", it works pretty well

[Anyr]

Not that I mind the idea of having him bring us together, we need some reason for us all to be together. But this is the wealthiest group of plucky young supers I have ever seen.

There could be some plot potential in that. Maybe the group struggles to truly represent the common people, when they themselves are rich superhumans.

Correct. Her Perception got lowered in one of the revisions. I just didn't update the Edge to match.

Weakness detection cost reduced from 6 to 3.

It also costs Resolve to use now, instead of an action.

 

[TetsuKnife]

I am still interested, yeah; I had some stressful days and... yeah, I couldn't focus on getting through the rule book, but I have tonight ad tomorrow to get this fixed.

I actually didn't gain any points from Omin-Power since it was 5 pts/level where i bought it, i "got" 6 extra points because the Wealth and Fame perks weren't accounted for on the spreadsheet. So, I'll rebuy those and spend the 3 new points to get Master of Disguise (Assuming it doesn't count as part of my Stage Magic Omni-Power, otherwise bump up Toughness, Intellect, and Willpower by 1 each)

EDIT: I bumped the abilities on my sheet, if MoD is not an acceptable use of my omni power then I'll live without for now

 

[Sizniche]

also if anyone wants a reference image for Maestro, he looks like the guy on the cover of Blue Oyster Cult's Agents of Fortune album.

He is that much of a stereotype.

 

[KingGoblin]

So metal.

 

[Celestra]

My only request for the setting is that it be close to a large body of water -- preferably an ocean, but a large lake or major river would also be fine.

TIDE HUNTRESS is a public figure and has been for a couple of years. If the characters have spent any time in the city at all, they've probably at least heard of her. She always shows up to help whenever there's a disaster, so anybody who's participated in relief operations may have met her. TIDE HUNTRESS doesn't do a lot of crime-fighting -- she's worried about disrupting police/FBI/DEA investigations. However, her work in disadvantaged communities has brought her in conflict with different local and international crime syndicates, and she's had to be proactive in dealing with them. Perhaps she teamed up with one or more of the characters to fight drug cartels and human-traffickers.

Feel free to comment.

 

[Draidden]

Sebastian would probably have run into TIDE as he is trying to do things to help better the city. So showing up at a disaster location with a truck or two full of supplies would be reasonable. As well as lending some muscle if they needed help moving things to rescue people or to just move them to clear the area.

And I am not locked into the name Timber Wolf, so if anyone has any good suggestions I will listen. Am actually thinking of him not having a super name to start.

One of the adventure ideas I was gonna suggest was "coastal kaiju battle"

 

[KingGoblin]

Sidestep brought her sushi order.

 

[Draidden]

If I knew we were fighting giant monsters I would have made a hero who goes giant too.

 

[KingGoblin]

i might be able to drum up more support on mythweavers, and it seems that site is better equipped for a SWN game. I'm strongly considering hosting it there.

Keep us updated if you do the spes game.
