John Carter

I'm already in two games (though one of them is on indefinite hiatus) so I'll defer to new players and those not in any games. But if there's still room after that I've got an idea that involves using the MARS Super Soldier package to make a martial artist who utilizes his chi to perform fantastic f...

John Carter

Would I be correct in assuming that “standard Rifts character creation rules“ also means no Signature and Patron items as well? Would Billy Thomas, aka The Cheetah (adjusted to conform to standard creation rules) be all right for the game? I made him to have a character ready just in case a game sta...

John Carter

I'm interested if there's still room.

Jose wonders when the group will start heading to the next point. This waiting around, is not what cats do. Unless there is sleeping to be done. "Does anyone have a part of where this thing is? I might be able to get an idea of where we might head to find it. This jungle is so dense we might h...

Lost isn't really the right word for it. Temporarily misplaced perhaps. But that is easily remedied. "I am going to get a bird's eye view. Cerberus you stay with the vehicle." (Casting Fly). She holds her staff into the air rubbing one of the gems, clear though the specific type would tak...

When John enters the conference room the first thing he does is go to the sensor stations monitoring the cyborg's systems. He's hopes by taking a look at its mechanisms he might be able to identify the manufacturer. At the very least he's curious to find out how advanced it is compared to other cybe...

He flips up his faceplate to address them both: "And where did come across this? It was in the hands of Headless over there, just about the time I got my arms around him. To tell you the truth I lost track of it in all the chaos. This will need to be examined by someone with techno-savvy. Oh, ...

When John gets the cylinder away from the headless man he considers going solid to press the button but decides against it. It's an unknown device with a purpose he wasn't aware of. Best not to risk activating it before thorough examination. Instead he opts to go check on the VIPs to make sure they'...

John Carter

John is mildly surprised when he sees two members of the Feral swarm charging toward him. His power of invisibility doesn't render him absolutely imperceptible visually. He does leave a slight distortion in the air, like the alien hunter in those old Pre-Shattering movies, that one might be able to ...

Unseen, John sidesteps around a crawling reanimated corpse and makes his way to the door to where Sir Jaspin is standing. "Sir Jaspin, I've got a way to get you, Director Hart and Secretary Hines to safety," he says softly, just loud enough for the cyber-knight and those immediately next t...

John Carter

Deciding to kill two birds with one stone, John attempts to throw one problem at another. If everything goes right the element of surprise should enable him to grab the cowboy and use his own momentum against him, redirecting him at high speed into the guy with the beard. If what he suspects is true...

In ordinary circumstances he'd go support his colleague but their current mission's priorities require that he continue on to the Dining Car. In order to preserve the peac...

John Carter

As John runs through Car 2 he overhears Leopold giving a report to other Legionnaires. Unfortunately electronic devices become temporarily inert while he's intangible so he can't reply back or hear any other replies over the com channel. What he did hear from the elf is quite concerning. If somethin...

Now that the box is unplugged and the engineer is examining the train's systems to see how they were affected John decides his next step should be to check on Sir Jaspin.

When John spots the unfamiliar device plugged into the data ports his first instinct is to remove it but then he realizes that wouldn't be the best move. Even if he takes it out now there's still a good chance it's already done things to the train's systems. He neither has the access nor the familia...

Unfortunately the Weird Science Arcane Background doesn't give you PPE or ISP, so you still wouldn't be able to use the Shadow Cloak.

Not a GM but I thought you should know that as a Techno-Wizard item a character won't be able to use the powers of a Shadow Cloak without PPE or ISP.

Also, I believe the Weird Science skill isn't useful without the corresponding Arcane Background.

A discussion in Community Chat does bring up a valid point of concern - the interaction of SPC powers and existing abilities such as Dispel, Arcane Resistance, and a Cyber-Knight's Cyberkinetic Combat/Awareness. By default in SPC, Super Powers are not Arcane Backgrounds. My opinion : I think that i...

While I am not opposed to it myself, you should know the side kick edge and followers' edge have been banned by most GMs for signature items. (I know this as I have had them rejected myself twice.)
