6th Edition. :) Muse has been great in helping with character sheets. I'm new to GMing the system but I hope to make it fun for all.

How to set this Muse ablaze (O/Os)

It will if I can find a Champions book and the hours I need.  :)

Ok, found a Champions book.

Checking with you on a rule.  I want to get TK that you can't 'touch'.

IE, you can't use your strength against it directly.  You can grab onto something, use Flight Speed as Str, go Desolid, or counter with your own TK, but you can't 'break free' with only strength, as there's nothing to 'touch'.

This replicates the force, or the TK used in the Witch Mountain Movies.

Now this is obviously 'Attack with Alternate Defense', but of an unusual type.  Would you allow it?

A limitation on the TK would be, can only affect the whole object, IE no crushing or punching with this TK. The TK would also be purchased with invisible source.

The total would be 6 points per 2 Telekinetic Str.

Would this power be approved?

  By the way, Yugi, you have 11 more points.  :)  I recommend you consider some skills.  :)  Or maybe Combat Skill Levels. 

  Let's see if I we can get Apygoos finished. 

  Empyrean, are you more or less ready to go?  Also, is Yugi's character going to be game breaking?  She's not invulnerable, and pretty easy to hit!  While she can dish out an outrageous amount of punishment, that form is also very fatiguing!

#106
Jennifer McCallister (aka Phoenix)

Age: 24
Concept: Family oriented geek girl, not aware how gorgeous she is.
Power Shtick: TT&T (Telepathy, Telekinesis, Teleport)

Appearance

5'2", 98 lbs, Auburn hair, deep green eyes, light olive skin, rounded cheeks, very symmetrical Greek/Irish features, toned body, athletic.
Something Like This



Background

Jennifer McCallister was a dual computer and biology major, focusing on sea life and environmental damage studies in college, along with computer modeling to determine the probable causes. She was also, sadly, (at least in her mind) quite unmistakably beautiful. So lovely, in fact, that she'd learned to defend herself very well by the time she was 12, and had continued practicing self defense since.

Now, at 24 and about to be in her first graduate studies year, she was focused on her studies. At least on campus.

Thankfully she had another life, one where she could get away from it all. She had her family, cousins, aunts, uncles and assorted friends. They vacationed together every year, and Jennifer felt much closer to them than anyone at her college! Her parents usually came along, as did her older brother, Ryan. (he was usually the one who reminded younger male cousins that his sister, was in fact, their cousin, and that they really ought to treat her like that.)

She was the 'cute' cousin. All her male relatives of this generation had a crush on her, and she was fairly certain Mary had one as well.

Jennifer liked all of them... but was occasionally weirded out when they took it too far. But the rest of the family was always there to help out, reminding people that she was family... it was nice.

She was very fond of all of them. Her relationships outside her family had been, to put it bluntly, rather horrendous. Boys wanted to score with her, use her, or were simply too intimidated by her appearance to even get to know her at all.

Her mother had once tried to get her to think about modeling, but Jennifer didn't feel that was her calling. She wanted to do something to help others.

But college was difficult. Away from her family, and having a hard time making real friends, (outside of a few girls who weren't intimidated by her) she was always very lonely on campus, so it was always a relief to get away.

Family vacations like this one were her favorite times. People who loved her because she was family, and didn't (usually) lust after her because she was beautiful.

She wasn't looking forward to returning to school.

Then came the accident.  Her family's RV went over the edge of the highway... it started to tip, to roll... and then, just as suddenly, it was back, safe and sound in the middle of the road.  When it was over, her family was no wiser.  But Jennifer knew nothing would ever be the same again.

Relationships

Father: Patrick McCallister, Senior Supervisor for Security at a major Internet shipping company. Still in excellent shape, loves to play baseball with his home softball league, invites his son as often as possible, immensely proud of his son 'making' the leagues, no matter how small time. Loves and supports his daughter, (though doesn't really connect with her except trough their mutual love of the outdoors and the Martial Arts.)

Wendy McCallister, currently a part time home caregiver, ex-model. Loves both her children, doesn't really understand either. Somewhat disappointed in Jennifer's choices, and only occasionally hides this.

Ryan McCallister: Brother, a bit overprotective, close sibling relationship.  Minor League Baseball Player who always seems to have the time to talk to his sister about her problems, though he's reluctant to share his own.

Cousin Mary: A year younger than Jennifer, she's been the closest of her cousins, often coming by on her own breaks to hang out with Jennifer. Similar interests, (She's studying dolphin communication) they have been close friends for years. Always came on the family trips until an uncomfortable incident two gets previously, in which all the girls went skinny dipping. She was teased repeatedly for staring at Jennifer... but did not laugh the incident off. Jennifer keeps planning on talking to her about this, but has put it off so far.

Abilities

Jennifer has the abilities of Telekinesis and Telepathy.  Her Telepathy is largely untested, as she is uneasy using this ability, but her Telekinesis is now well practiced.  Able to move large objects both slowly and instantaneously, she has taken up the mantle of the Phoenix.  (Actually she made a Phoenix costume for a Cosplay some years back, and it seemed like a wise idea to have a disguise.)

  Okay, Nevermore's crunch is up.  :) 

What's missing: 
--Nevermore's supercomputer ally. 
--Arcana's (inherited) sanctum Sanctorum.  (I'll look for info on that now.)

Just buy Mind Reading, useable only on Suit, for the Computer, high enough that it can 'see' through it's senses.

A further limitation would that it can ONLY see through the senses, not otherwise 'read' the suit's 'mind'.
Though maybe you want the computer to be able to read the suit's computer?

It often takes me many edits to finish a post, so when you see a game post from me, it's usually not complete for up to 10 minutes.
I make the original post with actions the character is attempting, then go out and make dice rolls and check rules, then go back and edit in the rolls, and edit the text to reflect the rolls if possible... then sometimes edit again if something seems off.

Those are now complete though.
