I'd like to throw my pointy hat in the ring for this as well. I'm thinking an arcane caster (Sorcerer or Summoner, worshiping Hecate) or a Druid (worshiping Artemis or Pan.)

Since I'm the only spellcaster right now I was considering either an exploiter or spell sage wizard or winter witch to get spell levels as fast as possible. There is a 3rd party class from Kobold Press that I was looking at called Theurge that looked pretty cool too.
Only problem is I hate vancian casting, hence why I almost always play sorcerers, but being the only caster I need to get level 2 and 3 spells as fast as possible.

Hi everyone! Sorry for the delay in saying hi but I've been really sick this week. Looking at spellcasters of all sorts but not really sure what I want to do. Have toyed with Arcanists, Sorcs, Shaman, Wizard, Theurge from Kobold Press maybe if it's ok. Honestly I would love some input in what you all think.
Also are there any D20 modern books you aren't allowing? I'm assuming magic and future tech and stuff like that isn't allowed but armory and non magic feats and classes?
So here is the question, if you have a character A who is in an area of non-magical darkness without darkvision, and Enemy B in an area of light with darkvision, can character A see Enemy B to attack him? I ask because think of a dark room with a single spotlight shining on someone, even though I don't have darkvision I could easily shoot them irl but I'm not sure of the rules here. Thanks in advance!
Sounds good Sobran! Just let me know when/if you go ahead with the second one. Like I said, I had fun making the character and the chance for a campaign is a bonus.
I'm good with either way. Like I said I had fun making the character and happy he got pretty balanced so whichever you decide is good with me. I'd rather one good game however than you get stretched thin and both suffer but that all depends on your schedule and such.
Yay! thanks Sobran! Ok so the resurrection I had kind of coming from the idea of the phoenix and the renewing power of the sun. Essentially it was supposed to work unless he is submerged in water so basically if he gets killed and submerged in water before the resurrection time is up, hes permadead. If he is killed WHILE submerged in water, he is permadead. If he is killed but is not submerged then he can resurrect in a spontaneous combustion like event where he emerges, naked, but alive. As for the water portion, it is the heat and fire energy that allows the resurrection and the Radiation instead of destroying his cells, reinvigorates them to the point of jump start.
Oh also, that healing 5 resurrection was supposed to be healing others. Is that not right? Essentially it is similar to the way he resurrects himself, a burst of energy jump starting the cellular processes. Since the energy of the body is not entirely electrical but works on thermal as well as certain forms of uv radiation (i.e. the production of Vitamin D) I thought it was a neat twist on it.
Given just how MUCH technology exists in modern life... I wonder if having an EMP burst would actually count as a complication or drawback of some kind. XD You could fry allies' phones, do lots of damage to the electronics of any building you're fighting, and generally have all sorts of unintended consequences.
Lol true but I can see some really fun aspects to that too and I figured it would only be within he blast radius.
Ok so I made some changes and I have 5 points left. I want to add an effect to my Atom Bomb and I thought it would be cool to fry gadgets in the area of effect like the EMP burst from an atomic explosion. Is that something that can be done and if so how could I do it?
The only thing I pause at is the Sight and Sound power, because I don't know where it comes from. I imagine this is like Psylocke's ability to force others to not notice her? Also, the second page for this character is missing, so I wasn't able to see what the skill loadout looks like.
Version 2: This one has spent all of his points, which is good. The full sheet is also included.
I just deleted a lot of criticism because I realized that your Nuclear Form is a Multiple Power construct and not an Array. Hero Lab really doesn't make that particularly clear. Okay, so this works pretty well and is an interesting mix of power. However, you do have a couple of issues:
The odd power is his Immunity. It looks like you turned it into an attack, which doesn't make a lot of sense, as it seems like it is applying immunity to fire to...
oops on the 1st one not doing the second sheet. Sorry about that. For the second one I was trying to take the immunity and have it boost his attack power, kind of like absorbing heat and radiation energy and have it boost his attack or something like that.
As far as the attack, I can definitely reduce that. I will work on what you said as far as the blasts and stuff. Thanks for the help!
I downloaded the hero lab demo for it and it seems pretty robust. Can't export from it but I can screen shot and then port over. Any of the character concepts you liked the most?
I'll lay out the two I had in mind here just as concepts and then flesh them out as you like.
1. Dr. Victor Alden: Dr. Alden was a nuclear physicist at the Stanford Plasma Physics Laboratory at Stanford University. While focusing a high energy laser experiment at a deuterium and tritium core in order to try and generate a stable fusion reaction, during the experiment the reaction was a success but the containment unit failed. In order to seal the breach and prevent exposure, Dr. Alden took the full force of the nuclear radiation. After spending months in a medically induced coma in a specialized ward for radiation patients, he woke to find himself changed into living nuclear plasma. After escaping a government task force that wanted to take him for experimentation, he assumed a new identity and has been living in Emerald City ever since, helping those in need under the superhero name Mr. Fusion. (He dropped the Dr. to throw off the feds)
2. Dr Victor Alden: Dr. Alden is a psychotherapist with the California Department of Corrections: Special Prisoners Unit. This unit houses prisoners with superhuman abilities in the hopes of rehabilitation and eventual return to society. Dr. Alden was in session with a prisoner who possesses the ability to alter the composition of the organic material he comes into contact with, shaping it to his twisted desires. He had been pretending to make progress while Dr. Alden saw through the deception and intended to declare the prisoner unfit for the program and to be placed in special housing stasis. The prisoner learned of this and at their next visit, slipped his restraints and managed to touch Dr. Alden on the head, instantly reordering his brain chemistry causing massive pain but with the unintended side effect of awakening latent psychic talent. He continues in that job but also has taken to helping people outside of his day to day with his ability to manipulate the thoughts of those around him.
If the second one doesn't fit the flavor of the game let me know and I can reorder
I'm thinking either mind control, mind blast and such. Professor X style stuff. Or going the other route and going full alternate form, maybe have a form of fusion energy that emits controlled bursts of high intensity radiation or something like that.
I shapeshift into a Facebook employee to tell you your memes have been flagged as inappropriate due to the copious amounts of breastfeeding and you are now banned.
I'm toying with making a fast or smart character. I am a Technical Trainer with a Black Belt in TKD and have done Jujitsu for a while. I taught self defense in college. I'm not sure which way I'm going to go. I'm not a big guy at all but I'm a soccer player as well so I'm pretty quick.
I shapeshift into reality and reassure President Obama there is no way in holy hell trump wins the general election...and if he does I will officially petition to change the name of the country from the United States of America...to just 'MURICA!!!!
I transform into a Vulture Fund and buy the distressed debt before liquidating the assets that the board accrued in equipment and making a substantial profit...oh I also fired all of the maintenance workers.
Granted! Unfortunately it's not fertilized and therefor will never hatch...it looks good on your mantel though!
I wish that anytime anything I perceive as bad happens to me or those around me that something exponentially better immediately follows for whoever had the bad thing happen to them.
