Roo's Budget Builds

Aoiroo · January 30, 2014

Sos, talking in the chat an interesting point was brought up, that point being, there aren't many good examples of PL7 builds. There are some PL7 characters around, but no list of archetypes. Though AA makes tons, most if not all of them are set at PL 10 and the two starting slots are 7 and 10 so I thought I'd make a thread with some of my builds of different archetypes.

The Master of Disguise, not usually a heroic character, but it has been done, like Black Orchid for example. This character is a non-powered infiltration specialist. They can and will adopt as many faces as they like, and scrap there way out if they get caught. They have throwing knives as a base weapon, but if disarmed can use other things as weapons with throwing mastery. Who are they? They could be a former thief gone straight, an ex government agent who's working the streets, a stage magician who decided to use some tricks on the bad guys or maybe a ninja or some other shadowy person who decided to mend their ways. Either way, they're VERY good at what they do, and in a team setting they're an excellent scout or someone more suited to lead more subtle operations.

Bows are in universe a popular staple around superheroes since it's a reasonable ranged alternative to guntotting (which is pretty much a nono in our setting). Of course standard rangers specialize in keeping a distance, this build is someone trained to hold their own with bows and with their fists if someone manages to close the distance. Artemis is a good example of this type of ranger.

Of course another comic book staple is the speedster. This speedster isn't as fast as most are being based on Kid Flash (even if 1000MPH is pretty impressive) but he plenty competitant. He's a scientific prodigy, and very VERY hard to hit. Mind you, if someone gets a hit in, he'll go down, but won't stay down for too long (regeneration and all). Power attack helps you up the damage to full +10, which if you hit accurately enough with autofire can go up to +15.

And here's the Miss Martian build. There's a pattern here if you can tell. Of course this is a VERY power heavy build, drawing on two seperate arrays for it. The first array covering unarmed attack and the extension of limbs, M'gann can knock a fool's block off from 7 yards away. The second array is all perception range abilities so capped at PL7, mind you, you can do a LOT with what's there, especially move object which is a very versatile power. Of course the rest of the build is pretty feat and skills light, but you can build on that however you like while the powers themselves can help you muscle throw threads.

Okay, so Kaldur, yeah, freaking loved him in this show. He's a pretty straight forward even steven no trade off builds, but he is so badass. He's got damage wise peak human strength, but that Atlantean super strength will get you some millage in picking up and throwing stuff. Then there's the water bearers, pretty awesome device there, with some move object, blast, and the little swish army knife of weapons it presents in the form of variable descriptor. He's the most balanced I think just in terms of power, skills and overall feats on the team, and a great combat generalist.

Superboy! Is only slightly beat out by M'gann by sheer power point spendage, but only barely. He's tough as hell, can dish out the pain, and if you don't mind losing some damage with accurate attack, or just taking the hit with All-Out Attack (which he can probably take with the +7 Impervious toughness) you'll actually hit something. He loses some points for charisma, but it adds some flavor since clones don't socialize well. Great character for interposing and tanking. He's a wall, and if you want to play with the PL10s, he'll be able to run with them without being knocked out too soon.

Right this concept is inspired by the character Mecha Maid by Spinnerette (this build isn't though, actually her) that is, a budget power suit. In this case, it is in fact a prosthesis created by someone disabled to help them move normally again. This build I'm thinking a soldier (who actually knows how to fight) paralyzed in duty who went on to become an Engineer. This is a little strange because it doesn't have the Normal Identity drawback, the reason, well this suit isn't a suit at all, it's an exoskeleton that's subtle enough to be worn under clothes, so unless physically removed there's no reason why a person wouldn't be able to wear this normally, if only to be able to walk again. It also doesn't actually have any built in weapons, it just increases strength, and dexterity, making the user much stronger and faster then normal. It increases reflexes which is show in the enhanced feats of dodge focus and defensive roll (which it has in lue of say protection for the simple fact that this isn't a suit so it doesn't have protective plating). Whether this person wears a costume or not is up to you, but if they did it wouldn't be immediately obvious that this is in fact a power suit user which could be an advantage to some of the tactics used for them (like say, EMPs).

Guess who loves Sword Art Online! Anyway, this build isn't Kirito, but this is a similar concept, basically the dual sword wielder. A quick note is this build isn't very physically strong, but then again, it doesn't have to be, because it's SUPER fast. Well not speedster fast, but generally high initiative, high defense and lots of dexterity for acrobatics abound. Of course the story for this is this is a trained warrior, somebody used to fighting who uses dual swords as a specialty. This swords are either thinner or lighter then the normal +3 attack swords in the book (being +2 damage each), but of course that's why you're able to dual wield them at all. They come with autofire because of the fact of multiple hits in a round, and split attack for double stabby action. Having the speed power at rank 1 with the training descriptor is something you can do, you can do the same with leaping and swimming as well as long as you don't go above one or two ranks. We also have ninja run, so le parkor! Anyway, this is very featy, and very similar to another hero Jack of All Blades, mind you, Jack has actual powers, this build doesn't. Which is of course why it can afford 39 PP worth of feats as well as Luck 2.

*Note: Now you may want to spend some points to make the dual swords a device as opposed to equipment, or when you get more points later, give them better made swords with more feats and such as a full on device. You should be warned, equipment can break in the heat of battle, that's after all, why they're so cheap.

This is Robin, he was hard. Note that most of his damage is only fully shifted with Sneak Attack, which basically means, you have to be concealed to deal the max amount of damage. This would be a problem if Robin wasn't one sneaky little bugger. Hide In Plain Sight definitely helps with that. Robin also has a ultility belt array you can stunt off of, and escrima sticks (yes I took these from Midnight II's build, but they're tots canon especially since Midnight II is essentually like Nightwing with minor obscure powers). He is also a total SKILL MONKEY. That's just where you fall if more then twenty five points are allocated to skills alone. Skill mastery too, and acrobatic bluff. He's got a couple of options for disabling someone, but he's really great for overall coordination and for feinting an opponent with Acrobatic Bluff while you have a heavy hitter (like Superboy) knock they're block off while they're flat-footed.

The Puppeteer, isn't exactly a common power in comic books, but it's not unheard of. In this case, this is someone who can control string, and can use the string to control other people, like puppets. Mind you, they can also tie people up with the string (snare), or simply pick them up and throw them in the wall. At this level, there are no minions involved, but this is a great build to add minions too later in the form of combat puppets, but this build isn't so weak that it can't simply fight on it's own. The main story is, this is a Chinese puppeteer, how they got control over string, well they may of been blessed by some deity of the celestial court that enjoyed their show, or they could be a metahuman. If you want some extra points, you could toss the powers in a device and say it's just the string that's special, not the person wielding it. This build is pretty power heavy, but you can get a lot of milage out of it, and even without them the character isn't totally helpless as to not be able to avoid attacks. Also, the are control of the people would certainly help, why fight the mobs when you can make them fight each other.

Should be noted, if you want to make this build at PL 10, you can fairly easily just bump up the accuracy and dump the rest of the points into a decent minion.

Du du du.

Anyway, first alternate form, and this is one tough bugger, when he's in his alternate form that is. He gets a full rock overcoat that's immune to blades, fire, and at Impervious toughness 5 guns as well. This one actually has the normal form drawback, no rock, no powers. He's strong as heck in his alternate form, and has accurate attack if you so wish to have him actually hit something, or you could team him up cause what do you know, he has teamwork feat great for switching in the attack after a faster more agile alley feints the baddie. This is based on the Thing, but of course different fluff because one, the form isn't permenant, two, this persons a smarty in a different way (the Thing's an Engineer I believe in canon), he's a full on medical doctor, so he can bring the hurt and fix it as well.

Right for people who are newish, this is a PL 7 build of my now retired PC, Changeling, or Etain Maher. Some explanation for this build, Etain is a human taken by fae, she has glamour as a result, said glamour allows her to inflict onto other people anything she herself has experienced. The notch with this, is that Etain was trained in combat by immortals who think nothing of chopping off limbs, electricuting, burning or freezing in combat. As long as they didn't kill her they could heal the damage but Etain has very vivid memories of all of that which she can inflict on others. Usually these illusions come in the form of her looking like she's wielding various weapons or shooting these from her hands. She can also remove her presence and the presence of others completely by the illusion that there is simply nothing there. The catch of course is two found, first off, she can't lie, not that she won't lie, she can't lie, at least not directly. The second is her powers don't work on non-sentient beings or anything that doesn't have a will save. Because truthfully nothing she does to you is real, so if you can't perceive it, it's not happening. She can also identify magic on sight.

Basically as a build, Etain is a glass cannon. She attacks the least focused on save in the game, the will save, and has a power that simultaniously drains and attacks that save, and when it's drained it stays drained for six rounds. The thing is, while she's really hard to hit, she's physically very fragile and very slow (initiative wise), she has no travel powers, and her body is basically human, not even an exceptionally well trained human. But if she can get a hit in, it's usually pretty devastating you've got a pretty good chance. There's also the weakness to ferrious (anything containing iron) if it touches her, this has to be skin to metal contact, she has to roll a save for paralysis every round it's in contact with her, which isn't real great if she gets lets say, shot. But that's one of the prices she has for using fae magic.

River Tam from Firefly, is pretty badass I must say, but I can't see her as being very well, physically strong. She's only like 90 pounds, no what she is is always mentally aware of everyone elses thoughts in the room and really fast about it too. Lots of reflex, lots of fighty fighty feats, and high intelligence with the Eidectic Memory and Jack of All Trade feats. Of course she has the nightmare drawback, and the drawback on her mind reading being both continuous and permenant. She's fast, but she's frail, and a good shot should take her out. I'd imagine that Reavers are all damage shifted so that's why she could take them.

Dododododo, another cartoon favorite Danny Phantom. Near the beginning of the series mostly, like after Desiree, but not too far in. Anyway, pretty interesting power set of course, like for example the impervious toughness in his ghost form coupled with his weakness for ectoenergy, honestly this goes for the fact that he only ever gets hurt by A: Other ghosts, B: Ghost hunters who power they're weapons with ecto energy. Course, he's not full ghost, so he doesn't get the whole full fortitude immunity, he gets some, disease, starvation/thirst, suffocation, but the series does show, he's effected by hot and cold, and all the other stuff. He's like at the beginning completely average, and very reliant on his powers. Some skills for basic things, you know, bluff and such. He has unarmed combat as a specialization cause he does favor it in character and the enhanced strength to back it up, but he's not a bad shot with his blasts so just accurate there. Also Intangibility and Concealment aren't arrayed together cause he can and has used them both at the same time. Oh and he can fly, pretty fast. Only power not in the alt form is the ghost sense, I'm saying mental, I'm not exactly sure what seeing your breath counts as (visual, not sure really). Anyway, fun build, very power dependent, but great for building skills and maybe more powers later.

You know, there are I think four types of builds when you get down to it, those that rely wholy on their superpowers, those who have while having some superpowers supplement them with training, those who have no powers at all and are very skilled and featy, and the last is a mix of all three. This is my remix. This is a dual capability build, basically a werewolf who while able to become a wolf, doesn't need the wolf powers to hit caps. Though there are powers that don't come with the alternate form in the form of super senses, the speed and leaping are both regular training and the device the nifty little boomerang. I like boomerangs, we need more PCs with boomerangs. Of course to keep this build reasonable, there are built in complications that justify the cap changes between transformation, mainly the caps for the normal identity is supplemented by a device and some equipment, the changed identity, can't use either, one cause the device requires thumbs, and two because the equipment won't fit. I've always been one for low power high skill builds myself, or mixed builds with various powers and skills. The only build wholy reliant on powers I use actively is G-Force. Anyway, backstory, this is a soldier, or at least someone who's pretty good at scrapping turned werewolf. They have the drawbacks, and the weakness to silver (it doesn't have to be pure or inherited so it's common as opposed to uncommon) in both forms. Which can be waved away as a silver allergy in character. Now this character can fight either way, the quick question would be why would they want too. Well first off, Werewolves are SCARY, this isn't great when dealing with civilians. The claws also get in the way a lot, and transformed you can't speak normally which is always a bother.

Dodododo, completely non-powered build. This time however, no gadgets, no devices just equipment, cause he is a living frakking weapon without any need of superpowers. That is, the martial artist. Now this is built a little differently then most martial artists, he's not terribly strong, what he is is fast and dexterious. Up to the limit. The reason, this character is made for grappling. Lets explain some not so quite used often feat combos here. Grappling Finesse means that super high dex scores him a +7 to his grappling instead of the +3 his strength would get him, Improved Grab means he can initiate a grapple as a free action, Improved Pin means that once you got someone grappled, they take a -4 to get out of said grapple, and Improved Grapple means you can do said grapple one handed, which is useful for doing other things. This is a street level hero like most PL 7, like say Iron Fist, but of course Omi's the example cause he's much more agile then strong. Great for groups, and decent at patch up too (martial artists can learn a lot about how to fix up getting hurt).

This is undisguised build of Sidekick Girl, or Val as she's usually called. Only superpower, she CAN'T die. This is in play set as some pretty high regeneration. Otherwise though, she's not much more then a rather skilled human. She's not that strong or that tough, more attack and defense focus with a device to make up the difference in damage. Great for interposing though, good on teams, and has tactical knowledge, practical knowledge and just a large heaping of good old common sense as a back up (as shown by the 20 wisdom). Not to say that if you knocked her out she wouldn't stay knocked out, but if you don't put her down and put her down hard, she'll miss a turn and promptly get right back up, if you don't do more then a bruise, it won't even take that long. Like Wolverine without the claws and the body odor.

Okay, disclaimer, this isn't Asami, but I pictured a biker chick for that, and it's REALLY hard to find tasteful pictures of biker chicks.

Anyway, this is my magic gadgeteer, or street mage. This isn't someone who's got super heavy magic powers, but she has a knack for making magical items which she wears as normal everyday accessories. In this case, it's a belt buckle for a shielding amulet which will flat out stop bullets from small caliber pistols and lighten the damage on anything heavier, a pair of leather gloves for elemental blasts and close range shocking (and heating, and icing) as well as paralysis for non-lethal options, and boots that let her leap tall buildings in a single bound. This is a civvy spandex magic hero, so much so that it'd be pretty hard to figure out she's actually using magic unless you actually have some lore. She also has an HQ (her appartment) which is well stocked to make said magicky things. Regardless of her looks, and her motorcycle she knows her stuff, and can easily make more super nifty magical items, not to mention a good foundation in basic sciences, streetwise, and good at getting information on people (with the well informed feat allowing for her to know things about people she just meets with these nifty skills). She doesn't look it, but with some time, she could be a pretty dang powerful mage, or at least make the things nessicary to make up the difference.

Miles Morales! That's who this is, or the new spiderman in Ultimate verse. Anyway, I don't think I could of stat normal spidey at PL 7, to many stats, but Miles is a bit more. I have to say, I didn't expect this, but is the most power heavy build to date. Most of it isn't even damage! No, the full on upgrade to his stats is what's the real point sink in this, enhanced strength, dex and con seem to fit the point I think. Pretty stripped down on everything else, but the most basic of basic feats are there, also web shooters, cause it's not spidey without webshooters. While pretty strong in regular hand to hand, he's pretty fast, acrobatic little spider and of course has the shocky shocky to help out. Paralyze is a pretty nifty power. I haven't read much of Miles myself, but this build's pretty good to build on.

The Tranquilizer, or Tranq for short! This character is based on someone who, can create drugs or sedatives from their own body and use it in combat. They can throw some over a distance, like a tranq dart, or if they get up close they can do some real nasty stuff to you. This build is set up that this is someone in the medical industry. Maybe it's a nurse or doctor who got there powers and chose this profession, maybe it's a pharmacist who got empowered from a lab accident. Either way, this person can do a number on people.

The set up here is one of my favorite ones, exotic save based! Of course exotic saves are often ignored in favor of more direct damage, but you can do some nasty nasty stuff to people in battle. Stun is a great power for just quick take out, fluffed with sleep to say put it as a sleeping sedative. Then we have the stun drain combo (if you haven't noticed, I do have this pattern with linking drain to other powers), this drain doesn't just do fortitude it does ALL exotic saves, which means toughness, will, fort and reflex, why, because it's drug, it's slowing down everything about you. Then there's the fatigue/nauseate combo, if those guys fail that, even a little bit, they're taking lots of hits on their roll bonuses later in the round. Now of course, most of these effects wouldn't work on someone who has full fortitude immunity (like say, a robot), but there's one alt power built in to fix that. That's the blast with the very rarely used duration extra. Pretty much, it's fluffed as an acidy thing, the thing about duration though, is that it doesn't go away. It needs to be washed off, otherwise it'll keep doing damage to the person it's on until it is. Anyway, this is a great player for teams, or someone as a technical pacifist. They have high bits in life sciences and medicine, because it's good to have characters who know what they're powers are doing to people.

JUNK MAN! I don't use many man things, but I think the name fits. This is a dimensional pocket user who only has the ability of using a dimensional pocket, mind you, the dimensional pocket is HUGE! So much so that they have a full HQ in said dimensional pocket. Of course regardless of their occupation, the term Junk Man comes from how they use they're powers, basically, they open their dimensional pocket and DROP heavy things on people. Because of it's capacity this could be things like toasters and rocks, to planes and cars. Where do these things come from? Junk yards, just pocket them and use them later. This person is also a decent craftsman, and one who is NEVER without tools for the job, they can literately just pop into their pocket and go to their workshop whenever. The picture is Joshua who has a similiar attack style.

No this isn't Vriska (she's from Homestuck if you didn't know) but it's hard to find decent examples of luck controllers.

Anyway, yeah, luck control is a pretty expensive skill, mind you, you cap out at 4 because past that it's useless. Basically it's a mechanically someone who's great for teams, why? Because if you miss, they can just say, nope, reroll cause you didn't. They can also do the same for villains who crit and can actively defy the GM. Off the luck is some basic blasty blasty powers and an area damage. Caution though, the area bad luck isn't selective. Anyway, this character's got fairly good stats, also, enhanced feats, being lucky is what makes this character able to avoid being hurt, not to mention that they are immune to critical hits naturally they dodge the fatal blow. Anyway, great for building upon later. Also, they can heal. You'd be surprised how rare that is (which is one reason why I build lots of characters with medicine skill), so yeah, great for a party, no trade offs, so pretty decent overall. Also they're fast, not speedster fast, but initiative orders gonna have them high up. Anyway, this is for someone with a pretty good grasp on hero point mechanics (which aren't really that hard honestly).

Picture pending.

Anyway, this is the second time I've taken a character from a comic book comic as opposed to a tv show, in this case he's based on Windstar. This is the high flier, this isn't paragon, this is someone who's ONLY power is flight. They aren't super strong, super tough, they're a bit above strong. But they can fly, and they can fly FAST. They have a pair of nifty goggles to get rid of the wind or the dust in his eye and dazzle to ears as well. They're more accurate then strong, and they're really tough to hit. This is just someone who's great for high speed travel.

Iron Chef, Iron Chef, does whatever an Iron Chef does.

Anyway, ROBOT! First I've made. Fairly simple design, the short version is that this is an artificial intelligence from the future that somehow (maybe he worked on a luxury ship or something) got warped to the past. Or he's from the present, whatever the case, he isn't nessicarily designed for combat, no he is a cooking robot. But despite this, some of the features he has would be useful in regular combat, like an unending array of knives, a personal spice rack, the ability to detect changes in temperatures, and oh, he's bullet proof. He's also incredibly dexterious (as cooking is based on dexterity). Because he's a robot, he doesn't need to breath or anything like that so he has full on fort immunity, but also because he's a robot he is not immune to electromagnetic pulses, and would likely lose a fight with a large magnet. Now he could fight because he has a base protocol to protect humans, or because he himself doesn't like it when people fight (a good meal is a much better alternative) he's not the most accurate person, but he is pretty darn tough, and he comes with a flame thrower (for hibachi).
