Dave ST Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 Rev, can I use this power? Time Stop You can put time on “pause”, freezing the entire world and allowing you to move and look around at the tableau at your leisure. You cannot affect anything while time is stopped (for that, see Temporal Ambush). Still, this power allows you considerable opportunity for scouting and surveillance, such as stopping time, walking into a place and having a good look around before walking out and restarting time again. Your effect rank determines how much subjective time you get; with rank 9, for example, you have an hour “outside” of time to do things, then time returns to its normal flow. The Subtle modifier means no one notices you “move” when time is stopped. Time Stop: Quickness (Subtle 2), Speed (Subtle 2), Quirk: Limited to routine actions while active (–4 points) • 2 points per rank. Yes, but the Rule of Rev applies: if you irritate me with it, I kick you in the junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargaizer Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Ok, got powers, the majority of a backstory, and an in costume look. Just gotta put it all together and out of the excel sheet and into a readable format. Don't know how much time I'll have tomorrow, might have to wait until Monday.

Dave ST Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Hey, real quick guys: ,, Don't worry about spending PP on equipment that involves 'everyday life'. Smart phones, lap tops, iPods, home PCs and a car are sort of a given. Most people gain those through RL experience and jobs. There is nothing super about it. ,, The caveat though is simple: don't be a derp. If your character works as a clerk at a local 7-11 then he's not driving this years Lambo. Lifestyle gear is free. If you have to ask me 'would this be considered lifestyle gear?' then the answer is prolly 'no'. ,, Headquarters, even if it is your house, have to still be purchased.

Sailor OOC Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Oh that's good to know. Although I'd wager getting a kevlar vest totes isn't lifestyle, particularly one custom tailored for your costume. And yes, My character will have a few levels of Benefit: Wealth. I might end up making something of a roost for us in terms of a HQ. And yes, first version of my build, I managed to actually have about 20 PP left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave ST Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Jordan - I don't really have a problem with Cryostorm having a 14 Toughness I have a hard time seeing it as justified. Using other energy controllers as a reference none of them have Staminas that high. Now, if its a sustained protection power, like ice armor, or an ice shield that could be shattered. That makes more sense. I still think 14 is a bit high, but they're your points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Hey Rev, I actually used the Elemental Archetype to build him so he's kinda of a half and half brawler/blaster, as per the Ice Elemental build (although I pushed the protection a little higher). The 14 toughness comes from an Alternate Form that takes a Standard Action to change in to, so there will be times when he's not protected. ,, Also, I did take the stereotypical weakness complication for an Ice guy (Fire & Heat) so he still has his weaknesses...

z-Tempest Greer Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 "The Tempest" is not her super hero name. She would love to hang out in dark alleys with someone wearing a yellow rain slicker. The villains would all shoot at the woman in the bright yellow jacket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor OOC Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 They'd be wasting ammo. Trust me. Bullets are just another form of hail to The Gale. ,, Actually I'm not sure if I simply push the bullets with a wind until they've stopped in mid-air, or I have a combination of kevlar and good positioning (Defensive Roll FTW).

Dave ST Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 Maybe he was an ice delivery guy who was doing a delivery on Yellow Brick Row when the storm hit.

The Gale Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 The Gale is submitted. Was flying overhead doing my weather report with the traffic guy in Channel 11's chopper when the silver storm hit. A crash and some scary moments afterward Velma discovered she was the only Meteorologist on earth that could control the weather... Don't blame her for bad weather though.
