angrydurf Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 In which I tweak my characters in some hope of squeezing PP from a stone... Ace Danger Rebuild Complications: Disarmed!: Aces gadget power is hard to lose as he has to be stripped of all of his devices to completely lose access. However many of the individual items are hand held and can be disarmed as normal. Fame: He is The Ace Danger Honor: A Product of an earlier age Ace sees the world as very black and white and hile not an 'honorable foe' in the traditional sense given his predilictions for trickery he has firm lines regrarding right and wrong. Reputation: It Precedes him. He is known as a wastrel and a libertine as well as a dangerous and clever foe villians trying to make a name often may try to 'Prove' themselves against Ace. Enemies: Ace has made alot of enemies over the years and any number of them would love a chance at taking a shot at the legendary hero.

angrydurf Posted August 18, 2011 Author Posted August 18, 2011 So goals of the rebuild. Trim some fat from the feats. There were some things that just didn't come up often enough to justify namely teamwork and the quickchange 2 +high disguise skill to do the master of disguise thing. Secondly Ace was never really supposed to be a martial artist type but he slowly morphed into one from me pushing on hitting caps. Dropped all the attack focus/specialization, for straight attack as thematically he's supposed to be a well rounded expert in many forms of combat not just fisticuffs. Also wanted to get his stats to a more uniformly high state. He's not super human but he's experienced and very fit. This also better allows him to take advantage of Jack of all trades and Beginners luck. So what did I lose in the process? PL mostly. Without Gadgets set to weapons or armor he's at PL 10 Defensively, PL 8.5 Offensively. Gotta say not super satisfied with that but gadgets help and allow me to get at least one or the other to PL caps. Example Gadgets Melee Weapon: Strike 9 (Feats: Mighty) [10pp] (Brings him up to PL caps offensively at attack +10 DC +16 w/sneak attack, examples include; magic sword/axe/hammer, Alien Force weapon, Medallion of the Iron Fist) Ranged Weapon: Blast 5 (Brings him to PL 8.5 offensively at range, examples include; Lightning projector, Blasting rod, Ray Gun) Full action Ranged Weapon: Blast 10 (Flaws: Action: Full) (PL 10 offensive caps from range, Examples include; armor Piercing RPG launcher, Holocaust cannon, Collapsible rocket launcher) Protection Items: forcefield 6 (Extras: Impervious 4) (Defensive caps with a toughness shift; Examples Include; Force-field generator, Body Armor if protection instead of forcefield) Protection 3 Linked: Shield 3 (Brings him to unshifted defense caps with 4pp for utility Items; Examples Include; Protection Charms, force shield) Utility: super senses 4 (assorted goggles visors, glasses and gems of seeing) super movement 1 (Swinging) Linked: Speed 3 (Grapple gun) immunities 4 (Protective charms, Gas masks, nullifier fields) Create Object 10 (force generator, prayer scroll of warding)
angrydurf Posted August 18, 2011 Author Posted August 18, 2011 I'd like to cram the vehicles in as well but given the lack of use for them in most FC roles its hard to justify.
