For those in the 'Character's Built'. If I don't get final feedbacks by Midnight, I'll go with whatever changes we discussed, or I feel are best needed, and go with those for final selection.
Thanks. Cheers
I wanted to keep the second slot with lower strength with Fine Manipulation and without the Affects Whole Objects limitation. I just did not want to increase the slot to the maximum of the Multipower to keep the real slot cost at 1.
So, I don't understand your redundant comment. If you need points for the slot, Persuasion is bought up to 15- for 7 points and can be reduced to 14- as you wrote.
And if you take 2 points from Persuasion to balance, you could maximize the Str in the Fine Manipulation slot.
cheers
My char is all ready now! Thanks :)
I'm done on my end as well. Snapdragon's probably about equal parts Martial Artist and Morpher.
I'm afraid I've got issues on Snapdragon, Thunderbeard.
Some of the costs are off (I'm putting it into the program now). Sometimes in your favor, sometimes against you. The biggest one is the resurrection on the healing.
1d6 : 10 Pts
Limbs : 5 Pts
Ressurect : 20 Pts
Advantages : 0 End (+1/2), Persistent (+1/2), Uncontrolled (+1/2)
Limitations : Extra time (1 turn) (-1 1/4), Self Only (-1/2), Ground Only (-1/2), 0 DCV Constant (-3/4)
Total AP = 20+10+5 * 1+1.5 = 35 * 2.5 = 87.5 = 88 (VPP can only hold powers up to 60)
EDIT - Note, even if you take the limbs out, it's 30 * 2.5 = 75 pts. You have to have the three advantages for it to work after you are dead. Without Uncontrolled, the power stops working when you die, which negates the resurrection power.
There's just no way to get the resurrection in.
Additionally, I need to adjust the HTH down a bit on several of the builds, due to the high OCV/DCV.
I'm doing a rebuild now, will post it soon, so you can comment/tweak
DONE. I've finished The Rocket's crunch, including disadvantages, and (happily) found that the process did just what I want it to: it rounded him out a bit more as a person, and should provide some interesting hooks from time to time. For instance, I realized that when his dream of playing pro baseball was dashed, part of how he re-found his center was painting...and especially doing (not always strictly legal) street murals with a slightly notorious band of muralists. This changed his skills a bit and also gives him a fun group of DNPCs who have great reasons to get into mostly harmless mischief all around the city.
I'll update his background somewhat (based on your feedback about pulse/BP and also to incorporate his connection with the South Side Muralists, but crunch is 100% done.
mdt, any qualms about me also having a rivalry with some other (more powerful or more experienced) speedster? Are there others on the scene yet? If it doesn’t fit I can change that one.
Ah. I missed the +1/2 from uncontrolled, and maybe also some other things. In that case, I could always try to pick up resurrection (very slow) as a non-VPP power later, or work something else out. Do what you feel is balanced, I wasn't getting a good sense of that anyway (other than "generally concerned that I might be hitting too hard").

It get's you most of what you want. Keeps your damage output down in the 6 to 8 DC range, and actually get's you some stuff you hadn't put in or put in at a lower level.
Fixed VPP (real cost was off by 10ish)
Fixed all packages
Stance of Veils - Fixed costs.
Stance of Crawling Ivy - Rebuilt Clinging Grip. HA's don't add to sweep/grab/takedown, they only add damage to HTH attacks. Bought STR with no figured characteristics that can only affect those 3 things instead. Used saved points to buy an extra vine (extra limb)
Leaf on the Wind - Can't link an HA to flight, unless you only want it to be used as part of a moveby/movethrough (when you stop moving to attack, the HA vanishes). Put a limitation on it that you can only add it on after taking a half-move action. Points were off, used extra points to up movement.
Stance of Thorns - Can't link a 12pt power to a 5pt power. Rebuilt Drain as requiring it to be used with a multi-power attack (HTH attack). Had to drop HA. Added 1" of movement for stronger muscles.
Cloak of Leaves - Chameleon doesn't really cover not breathing, as you'd breath when you moved. Which you don't, in this form. So, rebuilt it as Invisibility to Hearing, only to mask breathing (-2). You still make noise if you move (which you should), but not while standing still (unless you intentionally do it by hitting something with your hands or something). Rebuilt alter environment to hit both sight and hearing (covering 90% of all perception checks) groups and added endurance cost to clinging.
Lotus Meditation - Fixed Healing (can't shoehorn resurrection in), Fixed Aid Stats, Added Sessile Mind with left over points (invisibility to mental powers while unconscious).
Lack of Weakness - Pumped to 10
Regeneration - Got rid of, instead gave you Fast Healing talent (1 body per hour of rest) to save the last point.
Whew, missed a few changes...
Altered Disads.
Can't eat normal food is Physical, not Social
Fire is a Very Common, not Common (anything that burns is fire, lasers, fire, napalm, lava, plasma, etc). Also, if you take stun, you should burn faster too. ;)
Redid the distinctive feature.
Removed some weaker disads.
@Gyrfalcon - Looking at it now...

@Gyrfalcon - Looking at it now...
Cool! Background, personality, appearance, and misc notes updated in his profile now too...so feel free to review his fluff at your leasure as well.
EDIT, I think I said this before but I really bow to you on issues of balance since I don't know your world and haven't played Champions for many years. Feel free to make whatever tweaks you believe best serve the game.
Thanks! Sounds good. Sorry for having so many powers that needed to be spaded (>.> this is what I get for doing all the math by hand at 4 am) but everything looks good. I kind of like how wide a range of defenses she can achieve, meaning that Snapdragon is almost defenseless against surprise attacks or when disguised as a human. You've definitely got a much better sense of how the disadvantage system works than I did.
Gyrfalcon, I'm leaving some commetns on the sheet, and doing some moderate to major rebuilds on the Multipowers. See sheet on why I did what I did when post the character sheet.
Rocket
And fixed. See comments on sheet, get's you what you want. And the 10 OCV is more than sufficient for now, given everyone else is in the 5 to 8 range.

Ok, it appears Korak & Morphling were unable to submit.
If either wants to be on the backup list, they can submit later.
Now off to figure out who to put where...
OK, everyone. Thanks for submitting characters. I'm sorry it took me so long to decide on who made it into the game. But something came up. My players in my meat game were looking over the characters, got all excited, and have insisted I give them the 6 slots instead, so I'm afraid the six players who made it in will be those 6 players.
Just Kidding. :)
Ok, what I've decided to do is, run two tables. So congrats, you made it in.
Table 1
Zoey-face - Aegis - Density Control Brick
Gaming Ranger - Dark Goo - Morpher
Hotaru-face - Pulse - Magnetic Projector
Gyrfalcon - Rocket, The - Speedster
Jemstone - Violet - Mentalist
Stalwart - Whippoorwill - Flying Projector
Table 2
Arch-lich - Chess - Battlefield Controller
Hat-Trick - Drider - Multi-Type focused on Defense/Entangles
Calmlight - Inque - Shadow based Scout
Jubal Breakbottle - Jedi Jack - Martial Artist/(Minor) Mentalist
Newbonomicon - Pixie - Bio-Energy Projector
Thunderbeard - Snapdragon - Plant based Morpher
Exactly which city each group is in is up to... Hotaru-face (because he was the first player to get his character completely done).
One table will be based out of New Orleans, LA. The second table will be based out of St. Louis, MO.
If people want to change teams, they can work that out amongst themselves. I just need to know soon. Also, I mixed the two teams up to try to keep people from stepping on each other's toes (the two sneaky shadow types on different teams) and to keep player friends together (Hotaru/Zoey & Hat-Trick/Newb).
I'll be doing intro poses as I can get the threads up. You'll all be starting in your home towns, and get 'recruited' as your intro. Some of you may be gaining your powers in your intros, and some will already have them, depending on the character.
Please get your aliases up ASAP. Thanks... Have fun.
MDT
Yay! Excited!
What do you need in our aliases?
Aliases should have your name, background, appearance, etc.
Put your character sheets in your profile in the race as a link. I'll post an example in a second...
RACE : {URL=<sheet URL>}<Character Type>{/URL} {Spoiler=Stats}OCV/DCV/ECV ##/##/## | Levels +# | PD/rPD ##/## | ED/rED ##/## | MD ## | End ## | Stun ## | SPD ## | PER ##-{/Spoiler}
For those of you with variable bonuses (beyond just "Forcefield On/Forcefield Off", looking at Snapdragon here), you will just have to put your current bonuses in a comment in every post during combat.
NOTE : For the newbies, replaces the {'s with ['s and the }'s with ]'s.
Example :
This work or is all the extra just cluttering it?
*edit*
Sorry didn't know they didn't show up
Yea Coco seemed perfect for the rich look and since they haven't shown much of her I don't have to worry about people thinking I just copied the character
:) You'll have to wait until I get the gameplay threads up, they don't show up in Recruitment.
That's ok. The alias looks good though, having clicked over to it.
BTW: Zoey, I do like seeing some character art from RWBY other than the main four being used. :)
Gameplay & discussion threads linked in.
Table 2 here...
Woot. Thanks for the selection.
Looking forward to it.
Hurrah! Congrats Everyone.
Looking forward to seeing how this all shakes out. :)
