Supercape Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) Character Name: Zaul ZenoPower Level: 10 (217)Trade-Offs: -3 Defence/+3 Toughness, -2 Attack/+2 DCIn Brief: Galactic cyborg smuggler Jabba. Age: A few hundred yearsGender: NoneEthnicity: Alien (Slithox)Height: 6’6â€Weight: 2000 lbs.Eyes: SilverHair: NoneDescription: Zaul Zeno looks like a giant slug with four arms. He wears a “Mouthpieceâ€, which looks like a small silver microphone. His eyes are scintillating silver, exotic and beautiful unlike the rest of his scaly flesh. History: Zaul Zeno has been trading in legal and illegal livestock throughout the galaxy for years. He is a master of supplying all sorts of alien species for experiments, and is a masterful cybernetics specialist himself. A few years ago, he disappeared from the scene after the Lor finally issued a warrant for his arrest. Zaul himself if from the rare non humanoid species, the Slithox, who are deeply xenophobic. Zaul, however, has an unending fascination with alien life forms and cybernetics, and is considered completely insane by his native world / species. Personality & Motivation: Zaul Zeno is a charming amoral character. He is not cruel or sadistic, he simply has a fascination with flesh, genetics, and cybernetics. He took up illegal hunting to fund his own fascination, and has made contacts throughout the galaxy. Whilst there is a warrant out for his arrest, Zaul shold not be considered needlessly cruel. Whilst he is self – centred and amoral, he would also not willingly expose a creature to pain (mental or physical). Zaul also has a slightly lazy streak - he dislikes prolonged physical exertion and prefers others to do heavy lifting for him. Zaul is for potential use as a dealer and creator of cybernetics, or strange and dangerous animals. He is not always a direct antagonist. His interests are in creating and finding strange, exotic and dangerous life forms. Whilst he lacks empathy and care, he is not driven to act of sadism or cruelty, he just has no problems with these. He can potentially be quite friendly and charming, and even helpful if the mood and/or reward strikes him. Powers & Tactics: Zaul Zeno’s strength comes mainly from his excellent contacts and access to all sorts of equipment and shady characters. He is now wealthy, and effectively has whatever minions or equipment necessary for the plot, including cyborgs, trained beasts, and cyborg beasts! He still keeps a relic from his old days of hunting, a giant bazooka nearly six feet long and very heavy. He would use this in a fight, if he had too. Even disarmed, he has superhuman strength and is a reasonably competent fighter.

Fox Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 CombatHalf your base defense, rounded down, is your dodge bonus; thus, when you are flat-footed, your defense bonus is half your defense rounded up. In this case, it'd be +4, rather than +3.PowersAdditional Libs 2 costs 3pp, not 2pp; I believe it's right in your pp tally up top, but not not on the power itself.You appear to have bought Alt. Power 4 on your Armaments Array, but you're paying for Alt. Power 3...and only list 3 alternate powers. (Also, for the sake of pedantry, the feat is 'Alternate Power', rather than 'Alternative Power'. The latter implies a power that eschews tradition!)
Supercape Posted October 6, 2014 Author Posted October 6, 2014 Corrected, it should be AP 3, done so. As for dodge bonus and size. I am fairly sure I have done this correctly. Size modifier is explicitly applied after the flat footed calculation, rather than before. His base defence is +8, which would mean +8 Defence, +4 Flat footed. Then Size Modifier is applied, making it +7 Defence, +3 Flat Footed. The link in question to rules clarification
Fox Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 Aha - interesting. Neat!The only thing left was the Additional Limbs line, then, which I've taken the liberty of cleaning up for you (in addition to removing the glut of weird font, color, and size tags in the post).APPROVED!
