Superhero Saturday

12/25/2021

First off, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

For the archetype roll, we get 20 (Natural 20!) so we are generating a weather controller. For abilities, we roll 9 for Psionics. The hero’s forceful will is used to control the weather. That puts us at 40/150PP.

For advantages, we roll a 13 and a 17. That gives us Raging and Sovereign. Our hero has anger problems and is “noble” in standing. Sounds like we have another child of Zeus on our hands. Out total is now 47/150PP.

For the skills section, we roll 20 (2nd natural 20 of the session), so our hero is ‘spirited” and full of energy. That’s a lot of ranks in acrobatics, athletics, and intimidation. We are now at 63/150PP used.

This is a new Powers Array, we get to roll 5 times on the powers and add them as Dynamic Powers. For rolls, we get 4, 10, 13, 16, 20 (Dense Fog, Lightning Bolt, Stormy Weather, Tornando, and Whirlwind). While we have had other arrays in the past (Asa’s telekinetics), these powers are dynamic. That means we can activate more than one of them at a time, but they all share the same number of Power Points. So our hero can use Dense Fog and Lightning Bolt at the same time, just both would be weaker depending on what Power Points were assigned at the time. This takes us up to 102/150 PP used.

We definitely will create this hero as another Son of Zeus. He will not have super strength like Hercules, but he will have his father’s temper and electrical power/weather control.

Our hero gets to roll 2 different defensive powers. We get another natural 20, so he will be Weather-Proof (immunity to weather effects and damage) and he also gets a roll of 2 for a Force Field. He can generate an electric field around himself that protects him from damage. That’s 128/150PP used so far.

He gets a movement Power and we roll a 7 for Arc Riding. Our hero can’t fly; instead, he leaps great distances holding onto a lightning bolt that he throws. (kind of like Thor flies by throwing Mjolnir.) That takes us to 138/150 PP used.

We finish off adding in the Defenses and that’s 150/150PP used. The hero is complete.

Complications are going to be Fame and Responsibility. He is known to be a Son of Zeus and he feels the need to protect people from the weather. We give him the Greek name of Petros Dardanus and find a nice picture for him. Since everyone knows he is the Son of Zeus, he will dress the part since he is sovereign and easy to anger.

Keep on gaming!
