Today on Superhero Saturday we will be creating a Mimic!

For the Abilities section, we roll an 11 so we will be creating a Metamind. We are at 32/150PP used so far.

We get to roll three times on the Advantages tables, so we get 1 (Complementary), 12 (Innocent), and 20 (Subtle). The hero is a good team player and support character. Adding those to the character sheet takes us to 38/150PP used.

In the Skills section, we get to roll twice and add those skills to the character sheet. We get a 9 (Furtive) and 12 (Inscrutable). Definitely like to be in the background of the group, probably following the lead of the more Charismatic members of the team. This puts us at 50/150PP.

Up next is the Powers section. We roll a 3 so our hero will have Animal Mimicry powers! We get a Variable 10 power set to mimic a single animal at a time. It is a huge 80PP power set putting us at 130/150PP!

We add in the bonuses to the Defenses and we have a complete character. We find a nice piece of artwork from the community…

For Complications, we give him Responsibility and Temper. We can see him as a guardian of the world’s animals who fights against poachers. He doesn’t do it for headlines and stays out of the limelight. His temper can be when he sees animals mistreated.

We give him the simple name of The Animal and we have a complete character!

He has the ability to copy the power of any animal. If I was playing this character, I would have a premade list of ‘goto’ powers that he defaults to in combat (like Beast Boy starting as a gorilla in a fight). Other powers could be built quickly when they would come up. Unless needed, just say he does it. (Example: The Animal turns into a mouse, squeezes under a door, then turns back into human form to quietly unlock it for the rest of the team).

Keep on gaming!
