Alan posited a quick solution being to run into another recovery team bringing the new people in. The problem with that is that the new people will be powerless.

The other is you guys do the white room wake up and escape and run into the other group. You would get your powers then.

I think encountering our group (Volo and Highlander) coming out of another recovery room is fine. Possibly triggering another warning before.

Let me know how you plan to introduce us. I assume another room or perhaps being brought in on our own?

I think I will have you in the White Room. That way you will have your powers starting to return. I'll write up a post. You'll be able to hear the fighting, most likely.

Looking to add the following power to Rob.

Basically he is becoming scared of the idea of the mind controlling machines and will be wishing to be untraceable.


4 (8) Arcane Void - Invisibility (2); Permanent -2, Limitation Only vs Records -2
Concerned with being tracked and captured again Volo wished repeatedly for all the records of him to go away. The resulting effect was records, recordings, images, and more of him self erase within moments of being recorded.


Does this work for you @KahlessNestor?


Is there a better way to build this, are you okay with it as a concept?
  • 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!

Re: Rising Stars OOC Chat

Post by KahlessNestor »

As a reminder, part of this game is that I want players to have a lot of freedom. If you have a plot or interaction you want to run apart from the main thread, feel free to start a thread. This allows for all the teenage drama of a young supers game. Want a relationship? Want a good scene with another player dealing with XYZ? Start a thread. Mostly these shouldn't require die rolls, just RP. But if you want to get into a dustup with some low lifes outside the 7/11 when you're getting a slushy, you can do that, too (with or without dice. I mean, they are just lowlifes). But if you want to run a "solo limited series" with your character, and have an idea, I can work with that, too. There will be plenty of time built into the game to do things like that.

So scratch off your RP and start your own threads, if you want.

the intent here is unclear.

From your wording it sounds like we can train in each of the skills in our montage? But I think you would want us to train in only 1?

It is one, many or all?

Okay, so I have an idea to give Kat a little actual offensive power, that fits her overall power-set. This would be a new 'Switchable' Option for her Hex Bolts (bought with the Power Points Edge she's taking for her first advance):

Attack, Ranged
Modifiers:
Limitation -2: Damage takes one round to occur (essentially, this is a bit like Requires Activation/Slow to Activate, but with a different feel, so it has about the same value as those--basically, she rolls to hit one round, and then rolls damage the next round, on her action. This means that during the delay, if she gets knocked to Incapacitated, the damage doesn't happen.)
Limitation -X: Wild shots (I'd need a ruling on this one): Because the attack manifests as a random stroke of bad luck, sometimes people other than the target are affected, instead. Essentially, ANY time she uses the Power, if the attack misses and the Skill die was a "1", the Innocent Bystander Rule is in effect, even if there's no one standing near the original target. Roll a d4: 1 = Random Enemy (but not original target); 2 = Random Ally (including Kat); 3 = Random Civilian; 4 = Random Property Damage. If a particular category doesn't have any valid targets (no civilians, or they're only fighting one opponent), then the attack hits Kat herself.
Level III (3 damage dice, uses Throwing)
Enhanced Damage (uses d10s for damage)

Also note: Since this is Switchable, if she hits someone with the Bolt, she has to wait for the damage to strike before switching to Negation or Malfunction.

Have we gotten any advances in this game yet?

I feel like I remember us getting one, but I can't find where that would have happened. Since they don't happen per quarter, I am kind of lost.

I believe you have gotten 1 so far, when you got your extra skill points. You will basically get one every adventure, roughly, as we do the "school years".

Hey, guys.

After some consideration, I think I am going to end this game. It will be hard to run with just three characters, and there just doesn't seem to be a general drive for supers (not just here, but other boards, as well). I think if/when PEG decides to reinvent the supers rules for SWADE we could try again, as it would bring in some more natural interest.
