Well-Informed is already a feat that lets you substitute Gather Information for whatever Knowledge skill(s) would normally be appropriate to have heard of someone.

angrydurf Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 I want wings. I have 3 points, and I put two of them into having Flight 1, and save the last. Winged flight (meaning you can't fly if your wings are restrained) is is a 1pt drawback. If the wings are only ornamental and you can fly regardless it would be full cost.
Heritage Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Edits to Colby's sheet 1. Heading should read 'Det. Morena Colby - Heritage - PL6 NPC (Sidekick) 2. Change to 'Power Level: 6 (95 pps)' 3. Change Ritualist feat to Artificer 4. Craft (Artistic) 12 (+15) 5. Knowledge (Arcane Lore) 12 (+15) 6. Perform (Percussion Instruments) 4 (+6) 7. Personality & Motivation to read as follows: "Morena has developed many interests to help her cope with the stresses of police work. In her off-hours, she likes to work in her studio, a converted garage behind the West End house she bought two years ago (she rents out the second floor apartment); she prefers sculpture and pottery, and several of her pieces can be seen on display in galleries in Riverside and the Theatre District. She also teaches art to children at a local community center on weekends (as well as meditation classes for their parents), and still drums with a percussion group based on the Freedom College campus once a month, playing one of her several djembes. And at least twice a year, she goes with friends on a week-long backpacking trip, typically to Upstate New York or the Carolinas. Colby understands that in a city like Freedom, crime is not just limited to murder and robbery; far worse things go on at night, unspeakable things, and she's one of the few detectives willing to work in the unglamorous Supernatural Crimes Unit. Sometimes the weight of that responsibility is almost too much for her, but she still snaps up her cellphone and gets dressed any time of day or night when the weirdness hits the fan." Edit: it might jsut be easy for me to draw up a new sheet and submit that, because I've thought of a few other changes.

angrydurf Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Lt. Colby understands that in a city like Freedom, crime is not just limited to murder and robbery; far worse things go on at night, unspeakable things, but the FCPD no longer has the time, money or manpower to run a full supernatural crimes unit. Right now, Colby is all they've got, and sometimes the weight of that responsibility gets to be almost too much for her, but she still snaps up her cellphone and gets dressed any time of day or night when the weirdness hits the fan. Couple things on this, first off I don't like the idea of shutting down concepts like a supernatural crimes detective other than your sidekick, I even have one approved . Secondly the FCPD is specifically detailed as having pretty free reign budgetarily "The city government spares no expense for Kane or her department, but they also expect a return on their investment." FC p.68 I recognize that this is on the old version too but it doesn't really mesh with the world as written. Perhaps something like, "She's one of the few detectives willing to work in the unglamorous supernatural crimes division."

Fair enough; I think that was me trying not to step on Barnum's toes after she shut down the Department 32 sub-game (which she was sort of treating as her own turf), but then I went ahead and mentioned it on Colby's business card in a recent post, so I'm a bit of a hypocrite I will edit this.
Heritage Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Edited Motivations section above, hopefully that works better :)
Heritage Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Here's the final revised sheet for Detective Colby (thanks for your help, Geez!): Det. Morena Colby - Heritage - PL6 NPC (Sidekick) [img=http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k240/Heritage367/ltcolbycrop.jpg] [b]Character Name:[/b] Det. Morena Colby [b]Power Level:[/b] 6 (95 pps) [b]Unspent PPs:[/b] 0 [b]Height:[/b] 5' 6" [b]Weight:[/b] 128 lbs. [b]Hair:[/b] Light Brown [b]Eyes[/b]: Brown [b]Description:[/b] An attractive young woman in her early thirties, Morena dresses fairly conservatively on the job in jacket, slacks and sensible shoes, but she does her best to look stylish within the limits of her budget. She usually wears one or two pieces of jewelry of her own design, typically a necklace and bracelet in a naturalistic design. She carries a light shoulder bag for both her forensic tools and materials for spell-casting, such as chalk, clay and various herbs. Off duty, she indulges her passion for tie-dye t-shirts, baggy cargo pants and sandals, switching to clunky boots in cooler weather, with her hair worn up in haphazard fashion if she's working on an art project. [b]History:[/b] The Colbys are a police dynasty in Freedom City, a proud tradition that Morena resisted for many years; brought up in a working-class Lutheran family, she found herself yearning for a more passionate spiritual experience, and devoured books on other countries and cultures from a very young age. Against her parents' wishes, she left home to attend Freedom College, eventually earning a dual Bachelors degree in Anthropology and Comparative Religion; while in school, she also became very interested in indigenous art from around the world, as well as West African drumming. Ultimately she remained a (partially lapsed) Lutheran, but she feels her explorations of world culture have filled a hole in heart that the faith of parents was never able to do. She also experimented with transcendental mediation (and truth be told, a few hallucinogens), and has gotten quite good at self-inducing a trance. However, tragedy soon led her life down a different path; shortly after she finished school, Morena's father, a long-serving officer on the Southside, was kidnapped and ritualistically murdered by a drug-dealing cult linked to the Mayombe. Her knowledge of the cult and its symbols allowed her to help the police find him, but not in time to save his life. Deciding to apply her passion to the family tradition of service, Morena enrolled in the police academy two weeks later, and she rose swiftly through the ranks until she finally made detective. [b]Personality & Motivation:[/b] Morena has developed many interests to help her cope with the stresses of police work. In her off-hours, she likes to work in her studio, a converted garage behind the West End house she bought two years ago (she rents out the second floor apartment); she prefers sculpture and pottery, and several of her pieces can be seen on display in galleries in Riverside and the Theatre District. She also teaches art to children at a local community center on weekends (as well as meditation classes for their parents), and still drums with a percussion group based on the Freedom College campus once a month, playing one of her several [i]djembes[/i]. And at least twice a year, she goes with friends on a week-long backpacking trip, typically to Upstate New York or the Carolinas.

angrydurf Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Ok heritage why does a character that is primarily a cop have 12 ranks of knowledge (Arcane) and Craft (artistic) while only 6 ranks of investigate and Profession (police officer), and no ranks of knowledge (civics)? At twelve ranks we're talking about being a well known expert in the field, it doesn't make much sense that that is her primary skill set and yet she's a police officer, even in a supernatural crimes division I would expect that the her arcane knowledge would be in line with her actual police skills and other than the desire to use artificer I see no real explanation for the craft skill.

Okay, sure, I can scale those back a bit, and balance the skills a bit; she is an artist with pieces in small galleries who does teach art to others, but a 12 is probably a stretch. The artistic side of her has been a part of the character since before she had any magic abilty; it's one of several ways she uses to combat work stress, and one of the ways she gives back to the community, since police cases often end tragicaly. I will balance out her skills, but I feel Craft (Artistic) is a big part of why I like this charcter.
Heritage Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 I did some editing, Durf; let me know how it looks.
angrydurf Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Looks good, Colby has been archived and her sheet appended to Grimalkins.
Geez3r Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Okay, got bored, gonna make edits for Atlas. Some bookkeeping stuff first: Please change his Weight line to the following: "50 - 200 - 2,500" Please change his Height line to the following: "3ft. - 6ft. - 10ft" Then please remove the Enemy, Mistaken Identity and Heavy Handed complications. Atlas no longer has human form so the local gangs are no threat to him, he's active enough now that people know who he is, and he's gotten control of his strength now. Next, convert the 4 points of Enhanced Constitution into regular Constitution. It was just a hold over from buying off the Alt. Form. Now, onto the actual point expenditures. I'll spend 4 points to bump Growth up to Continuous Duration. I'll then convert the Innate PF into a Shrinking AP: Alternate Power: Shrinking 4 (Small, +1 Attack, +1 Defense, -4 Grapple, +4 Knockback, -2 Intimidate, +4 Stealth, 3/4 Strength [Carry Capacity], Feats: Normal Movement, Normal Toughness, Extras: Duration [Continuous], Normal Strength) [14PP] Then please add the title "Protean Might" to Atlas's Super-Strength array, and buy Morph 8 (any form) as a DAP in the array.

Inserted the char as code below for convenience [b]Power Limit: [/b] 13 (201/201) [b]Trade-offs: [/b] -4 Defense / +4 Toughness, -3 Attack / +3 Dam [b]Unspent pps: [/b] 0 Derrick Lumins Dark Star Age: 26 (appearance-wise) [b]Appearance: [/b] Normal: 5’ 10â€, 150lbs. He is a well-groomed, clean-shaven man in his mid-twenties with grayish-blue eyes and brown hair. He is commonly dressed in sneakers, slacks/jeans, a t-shirt with a tucked in button-up shirt worn over it. Super: A figure standing almost 6’ tall but of a uniformly deep black. There are numerous tiny ‘sparkles’ or ‘bubbles’ of darkness close around him that appear and disappear at random as a continuous nimbus. The only color, light or mark on his black form is the two bright white pinpoints of his eyes. [b]Personality: [/b] Derrick is a semi-geek. He loves and enjoys science and can’t help be drawn by its mysteries. He will never be one of the great minds and he accepts that. But that doesn’t negate his curiosity. Sometimes his curiosity makes him forgetful of little things but for the most part it isn’t a negative thing. Ever since he was a child, he has wanted to be a hero, to help others. The accident that somehow granted him his power gave him a chance to be one. Recent travels and meetings showed him how much he has to learn however. He has his idols and they are the standard to which he holds himself. While he has quite a bit of power behind him, he has little in the way of actual experience. This is what he is hoping to change; it what he needs to do to live up to the title of ‘hero’. On a personal level, he is a happy and lively person. He is seldom ‘down’ or ‘depressed’ if it can be avoided. He has seen too much darkness and suffering in the galaxy and understands what they can really do to allow himself to travel down that path. He enjoys going out and being social, living and embracing life. He is also extremely naïve socially. He is trusting and honorable to a fault. He believes in the inherent goodness of people. He believes in second, and third, and fourth chances for people and that Good will overcome. He isn’t quite a pacifist but he’d much rather talk a problem out than resort to violence. [b][u]Complications:[/u][/b] [u]Secret Identity[/u] While possibly not necessary, Derrick does work to maintain a separate identity. It is a part of his life completely separated from being a hero (or at least he tries to keep it that way). Part of it is simply having a persona/place he can do to step back and relax from the high stakes stresses. Another is to protect those he cares about. Someday, he might wish to settle down, get married, have kids. All of that. (Not currently, but someday.) Those things won’t be possible if villains know who he is. [u]Family[/u] Derrick feels a guilty over not being there for his parents and his brother. If he had simply come home instead of gallivanting around the galaxy, he brother would still be alive. He feels responsible and has made an effort to help take care of his brother’s (and now his) family. [u]Code of Honor/Sense of Responsibility[/u] He now has the chance to be one of his childhood heroes. And meeting true heroes like Daedalus or the Star Knights have given him a bar with which to measure himself. He does his utmost to be a True Hero, but feels he never does enough to get there. He does not believe in killing (though he has in fact taken lives, none have been human however). He believes that the strong should protect and defend the weak; it is their duty and their responsibility. Duty, honor and integrity are paramount and heroes don’t lie. [u]Stesha[/u] He has come to care for her more than he would have thought possible and there is very little he wouldn’t do for her. Love can cloud a person’s judgement and make them forsake their duty. [u]Naive[/u] Derrick/Dark Star is naïve in both his beliefs/trust in people as well as socially unaware. He will always attempt to talk a problem out first, often losing out on the first round of ‘combat’. He misses all but the most obvious social cues and often needs to have it spelled out to him.

So if you other senses (like sight) are dazzled or obscured, you can still attack normally. Since it has Extended, it means the "range increment" is 100 feet. Normally senses have a "range increment" of 10 feet, meaning you get a -1 penalty on a Notice check for every 10 feet between you and the target. But with Extended, it's 100 feet, so you're just as likely to notice something that's 100 feet away as something that's 10 feet away. Radius means it operates in 360 degrees. Drawbacks Normal Identity (full round action to change; major, common; 4 points) One way transformation (need to bleed off excess energy. Takes a couple hours, Common; 3 points) Abilities 2 + Combat 8 + Saves 14 + Skills 12 (48r) + Feats 11 + Powers 161 - Drawbacks 7 = 201/201pp
