Probability Matrix for Flynn

Post by Technospawn »

Probability Matrix
No one knows who created this powerful supertech but all attempts to reverse engineer it have failed. This helm appears to be made of some sort of black synthetic crystal material. The crystal matrix is made of up of millions of nanotech bonded together. When not worn the helm appears as standard human sized, but the nanites can rearrange themselves to fit any creature in the three galaxies. The nanites are each as powerful as a full sized computer. Working together they form a probability matrix that can calculate billions of outcomes in a nanosecond.

Multi-Optics Helm (25,000 credits)
Boost Trait (self only, boost only) (20,000 credits)
10 pp (30,000 credits)
+1 to activate power (5,000 credits)
+1 to activate power (5,000 credits)
Total cost 85,000 and -2 availability

Total effect boost trait 1pp +5 to roll

Should only be +4 to roll. But looks good otherwise.

+2 From redundant limitations
+2 from enhancements
  • 2D6 EFFECT
    2 Catastrophe: Something goes terribly wrong. The GM must decide what, but some ideas are a new and permanent Minor Hindrance, the inability to use powers for several days, or an explosion of some sort. The backlash should be thematic if possible. If the hero tampers with dark forces for his abilities, for example, he might become corrupted or summon something sinister into the world. If he’s a weird scientist the device might explode for 3d6 damage in a Medium Blast Template, or he might develop a Quirk, Phobia, or other “madness.”

    3 Backfire: The power succeeds as with a raise but affects a different target with the worst possible results. A bolt hits a random friend, boost Trait increases an enemy’s skill or attribute, etc. If there’s no likely target, he’s Stunned instead. If the power has a Duration other than Instant, it lasts its full term and can only be negated by dispel (the caster can’t voluntarily end it herself).

    4–5 Short Circuit: The power fails but the Power Points allocated to it are spent, along with an additional 1d6 Power Points.

    6–8 Stunned: The caster is Stunned (see page 106). She subtracts 2 from arcane skill rolls for the rest of the encounter (the penalty remains –2 even if she gets this result again).

    9–10 Overload: The character’s synapses crackle and overload with power. He takes 2d6 damage plus the cost of the power in Power Points, including any Power Modifiers the player declared.

    11 Fatigue: The character suffers Fatigue.

    12 Overcharge: The power draws ambient energy from the air, automatically succeeding against the target with a raise and costing the caster no Power Points!

@Activate Curmudgeon Mode@ I dislike "self only, boost only". I cannot think of any situation where casting lower trait on yourself would be useful, and so see no good reason for allowing a double-dip on the limitations.

*Activate Rules Lawyer Power Level Over 9000*

Technically, we're all wrong. While I hold to my original statement (to get a benefit from a Limitation, it must actually ~limit~ the Power in question), Self-Only also includes the Touch Limitation, stacking with it. Ergo, -1 from "Touch" and -1 from "Personal", still leaving it at a net -2 to the casting cost.
