Mutants & Masterminds 3.2 [playtest]

[Benoojian]

I was hoping to stat out Panacea and adjust her points a bit, but there have been some changes to Healing or Regeneration (Possibly renamed as Fast Healing?) that aren't revealed yet and I can't get the points to make sense.

It looks like the fast healing ability costs like 23 points, which is bananas because it's really bad regeneration.

BIO-MANIPULATION Array 10pts : Panacea can perform one of the following effects per Turn as a Standard Action:
• ACCELERATED HEALING: Touching another character, Panacea
rolls a DC 10 Check with a +8 Bonus: Each Degree of Success on the Healing Check removes one Damage Condition,
starting with the subject’s least severe condition, and working towards the most severe. She can make one Healing
Check per subject per Scene. Additional uses on the same
subject in that Scene require EXTRA EFFORT (page 17). (Healing Rank 8, Limited, Affects Only Others 8pts)
• ADRENAL SURGE: Panacea gains a +12 bonus to her Athletics
Checks. The bonus is reduced by 1 at the end of each of her
Turns until it is gone. (Enhanced Skill Rank 6, Activation standard, Fading 1pts)
• BIO-STUN: Roll a Ranged Attack Check against a target. On a
hit, they are required to succeed on a DC 18 Fortitude Resistance Check:
SUCCESS: No effect
FAILURE (ONE DEGREE): Dazed
FAILURE (TWO DEGREES): Stunned
FAILURE (THREE OR MORE DEGREES): Incapacitated.
Targets get a new Resistance Check at the end of each of
their turns to eliminate the Dazed and Stunned Conditions,
every minute to eliminate the Incapacitated Condition. (Affliction Rank 8 8pts)
ENHANCED IMMUNE SYSTEM: Panacea is immune to diseases and
toxins and can survive twice as long as normal without food
or water.(Immunity Rank 4 Limited to Half Effect 2, 3pts)
FAST HEALING: Panacea can make a Recovery Check (see page
15) from being Injured by resting for one Turn (taking no
actions) and from being Wounded after four minutes, rather than a day. She has a total +5 Bonus on Recovery Checks
(including her Stamina Rank).

My guesses are that Regeneration is completely removed and replaced with whatever fast healing is, speeding up recovery rolls instead of automatically healing, and that Healing is actually ALWAYS limited to 1/scene so it's not actually Limited flaw (which would be an array of 16,8, and 1, which is just really really bad) but I don't know how the numbers work.

Yeah. They seem to have reverted to the 2E implementation of Regeneration.

FAST HEALING: Panacea can make a Recovery Check (see page 15) from being Injured by resting for one Turn (taking no actions) and from being Wounded after four minutes, rather than a day. She has a total +5 Bonus on Recovery Checks (including her Stamina Rank).

My Guess is:
*3 ranks in Improved Recovery Check (so adding 2 Stamina = +5 total)
*9 ranks in Regen for Wounded (1 day > 4 minutes)
*9 ranks in Regen for Injured (1 hr > 6 seconds)

Total 21 PP

• BIO-STUN: Roll a Ranged Attack Check against a target. On a hit, they are required to succeed on a DC 18 Fortitude Resistance Check:
SUCCESS: No effect
FAILURE (ONE DEGREE): Dazed
FAILURE (TWO DEGREES): Stunned
FAILURE (THREE OR MORE DEGREES): Incapacitated.
Targets get a new Resistance Check at the end of each of their turns to eliminate the Dazed and Stunned Conditions, every minute to eliminate the Incapacitated Condition. (Affliction Rank 8 8pts)

Since it is a Range Affliction, Bio-Stun should be 16PP.

• ACCELERATED HEALING: Touching another character, Panacea rolls a DC 10 Check with a +8 Bonus: Each Degree of Success on the Healing Check removes one Damage Condition, starting with the subject’s least severe condition, and working towards the most severe. She can make one Healing Check per subject per Scene. Additional uses on the same subject in that Scene require EXTRA EFFORT (page 17). (Healing Rank 8, Limited, Affects Only Others 8pts)

Which also means that her Healing does not need any flaws. So Affects Others only, and once-per-scene, seem to be the new norm for healing.

This makes recovery between fights a lot harder. If you are Wounded with a bunch of Injuries, Healing will only remove the least severe condition, the injuries. You have to wait a whole day to attempt to recover from Wounded. And if you fail the recovery check, that's another day of waiting. Unless you try to "game" the system by switching scenes repeatedly to allow additional healing attempts.

"Alright, team I know you are all heavily injured and badly wounded. But I've already used my healing at the bank robbery site, so we have to take a trip to the mall if you want to get better."

[Batcathat]

Unfortunately my character also has Regeneration, so I suppose I'll have to try and make sense of the above when I have the time and focus (or possibly just spend the points on something else, maybe I'll boost his immortality, so he just resurrects quickly instead? ).

[SwordCoastTaxi]

I'm still interested (and really hoping to actually get to play Cthul-Lad for once ). The sheet isn't entirely finished (especially the fluffy parts, the history isn't up to the present and the personality is just copied from Complications) but most of it's there.

We really don't have all the new rules so there's some gray area. To handle it I'll bump the point-total from 120 to 150. Also recruitment is extended a week (until the 17th).

When I looked at how Recovery had changed that's when it hits home how the combat system has shifted to something more Iron-Age. The perfect system for Wolverine, Deadpool and Punisher.

[Batcathat]

The more I thought about it, the more I liked the morbid quality of Cthul-Lad being as fragile as anyone else but quickly resurrecting so I've removed his regeneration and boosted his immortality quite a bit. I have an idea of what to do with rest of that generous increase in PP, but we'll see how it works out in practice.

Description

Elliot is a fairly typical looking high school student, if a bit on the small side for his age. He has sandy blond hair and hazel eyes. He typically wears hand me down T-shirts and jeans. His favorite shirts are ones his older brothers got from one concert or another. Mostly because he thinks they help look cool but also because he loves what he calls classic music.

Quarry is a massive figure of dark stone standing just under 8 feet tall and over 4 feet wide. His skin appears as worn stone reflecting those of the Henge when he was originally granted his powers.

Spoiler: Background

Show

Background

Elliot was on a family vacation in England. He and his family were part of a tour group visiting Stonehenge when a thunderstorm quickly rolled in. Elliot had been off running around the fields when the tour guides were calling for everyone to return to the buses to wait out the storm. By the time he realized what was happening he was running through the monument as lightning crashed down around him. Just before he exited the ring of largest stones a bolt of lightning striking one of the stones arced out connecting to Elliot. He became infused with ancient fey energies that the stones had collected and stored over millennia transforming him into a stone elemental embodying the stones themselves.

Complications

Motivation: Doing Good, Thrills
Prejudice: Teenager
Accident: Quarry is big, heavy and strong and sometimes things get broken.
Honor: Elliot has been infused with ancient magics and fragments of old spirits that carry with them echos of an old code that he feels compelled to uphold sometimes even when he’s not transformed
Secret Identity
Relationships: Family (mom, dad, three brothers)
Responsibilities: School

Edit: updated to include the full 150 pts

[Benoojian]

I strongly suspect that Impervious is not a thing in this edition based on the QuickStart characters and the new damage mechanics. Two of them instead have the unique power Invulnerability which lets them get a 2nd degree success to take no damage. Not sure of the point value tho yet.

Edit: In other news I think I’ve got the math to work out for Regeneration, which suggests the default rules are that you can’t take actions while regenerating and that it only affects lethal damage by default and as one user pointed out is based on time rank rather than per minute. Also 1 per rank same as regular regeneration.

[JeminiZero]

We really don't have all the new rules so there's some gray area. To handle it I'll bump the point-total from 120 to 150.

I'm guessing the PL increases to 10 as well?

More PP is always welcome, but it does make it tricky for anyone wanting to use one of the pre-mades.

Dodge: +7/+6 (-1 from size) • 5 pts
Parry: +2/+6 (-1 from size) • 2 pt
Fortitude: +2/+10 • 0 pts
Toughness: +2/+10 (Impervious) • 0 pts
Will: +8 • 7 pts

This seems to be built for PL8. In which case, Fortitude + Will cannot exceed PL x2.

On Recovery Checks, I just realized something else: Wounded in Valiant includes the Disabled condition. This imposes a penalty die on all checks, including the recovery check. If your Stamina isn't 5+, you likely have to make several recovery checks before Wounded is removed. Which translates to several days of downtime, unless the GM allows a lot of scene switching for repeated Heals.

Thinking about it a bit more, the only way to reliably remove Wounded condition from a team (without scene switching shenanigans) is a power like this:

Accelerated Recovery (21 PP)
*Abominations can channel their biological energies into accelerated regeneration when out of combat. They can even share this ability with others.
*Regeneration: 6 ranks @ 3 PP per rank
*Extras: Duration increased to Continuous (+1), Affects Others (+1)
+ *Wounded: 6 ranks (1 day > 30 minutes)
*Flat Extras: Persistent, Regrowth, Progression (x1, affects 2 others through Touch)

Duration is changed to continuous, so the power remains active while you rest.

Anyone who wants to submit Panacea (or a similar dedicated healer) is free to copy this idea.

[Rook.Gamer]

Yes JeminiZero he was built for PL 8. I hadn’t seen the change of point total. But I assume the caps are still PL 8.

I realized my mistake on his Will as I was considering how to spend those last few points. Thanks for checking.

[Benoojian]

I statted out Ace as well, since the only missing piece for him was the new Invulnerability power. It appears to cost a very strange 12 points.


Also like 3 of the characters have higher toughness than stamina without having the protection power, so I think another change for Valiant is that you can straight up buy toughness like any other stat.

Is it weird that I'm enjoying trying to excavate rules changes from the limited information in the quickstart?

[Rook.Gamer]

So replacing his impervious with the new 12 invulnerability isn’t too bad. Then I was planning on using the beginning point boost
To give him some regenerative power but it sounds like everyone will just be taking high levels in immortality. This suggests to me that we really don’t have a good grasp of the healing mechanics due to our limited information or else the new rules aren’t very super.


I too enjoy the archeological work to figure out the rules but that could take quite a bit of time and seems ripe for contention.
Maybe, SwordCoastTaxi, you could specifically state the changes to 3E you want to make based on the information at hand and leave the rest (healing and regen for example) as is to have everyone on the same footing. It seems like everyone is making their own characters at the moment.

[SwordCoastTaxi]

Sorry folks been sick recently but my meds are kicking in. The quickstart is pretty limited obviously and I'm not a fan of how the pregens were written. Would using the original (3e) Regeneration, Healing and Impervious work better for you? That's how I created my NPCs but let me know what feels right. The plus with M&M is you can create and use any kind of power as long as it doesn't break the game.

[Rook.Gamer]

I hope you fell better soon. I like that approach. We can always make adjustments later if the new rules don’t mesh as well with the old ones.

[JeminiZero]

Get well soon.

[SwordCoastTaxi]

The bigger issue is whatever's happening with this site (obvious connectivity problems). Until they get that resolved I won't be starting this so players have time to make supers.

[Batcathat]

Yeah, I hope both you and the site will feel better soon.

So are we going with the original versions of those powers and the extra PP? Or original versions and no extra PP? I'm fine with either, as long as I know which it is.

You get the extra 30pp and because the quickstart doesn't provide depth to how powers have changed, you can use the core 3e rules for powers and advantages. Hope this works.

[Rook.Gamer]

Excellent! I will put some of those points into a regen/healing ability as I was hoping to and maybe expand a bit more of his stone form.

[JeminiZero]

You get the extra 30pp and because the quickstart doesn't provide depth to how powers have changed, you can use the core 3e rules for powers and advantages. Hope this works.

Are we being bumped up to PL10, or is this 150PP at PL8?

[SwordCoastTaxi]

Are we being bumped up to PL10, or is this 150PP at PL8?

PL8 with 150PP should work for us, I think.

[Benoojian]

I am officially putting in a request to play Panacea from the Quickstart. She will use the original versions of Healing and Regeneration.

With the extra points I shored up her defenses a bit and gave her a limited immortality(she is defeated by faraday cages), and also gave her a couple extra advantages to make her dangerous in a fist fight even against a stronger opponent. I did give her the new Invulnerability power, though limited so that other electricity users can bypass it.

I am still in the process of transferring everything to a mythweavers sheet, since I used a fillable pdf to do some of the math for me. Here's the sheet for now, though you'll have to download in order to view it properly.

That's fine with a few caveats:

1. Please change her hero and real name since you're altering the character.
2. She's over the PL8 attack-defense cap (16). Please lower her Strength or her Close Combat bonus.
3. I couldn't make out the power you added "Drain Their Fighting Spirit". The format cut it off. Can you repost the power here please?

Changing her name to Bioshock

The +14 was a typo, it is actually +12 and Damage 4, though I did have Protection 4 and defensive roll which did break PL, whoops. Gonna redirect 6 points and reduce Proc to 1. Added immunity to alteration effects, her electric field interferes with anyone trying to shapeshift her and 2 more ranks in persuasion.

Backstory:
It's a story as old as man's greed. A cabal of neophyte mages stumble upon a tome of ancient magic. It described a ritual which would call an eldritch Abomination from the far realms, and petition it for a wish, in exchange for a fortune's worth of arcane reagents... and a sacrificed soul.

The cabal decided they would rather like a wish, and run off to acquire the requisite human sacrifice. After some consideration, they grabbed a helpless schmuck which nobody would notice was missing: Jackson Cottonfield, ultra-nerdish comics and games shop clerk, and the biggest social outcast within a million miles.


-"Mai Waifu is Best Girl."

Thus, the poor fool was kidnapped, marinated in expensive arcane reagents for a week, and then stabbed atop an eldritch altar. In his dying moments, Jackson saw a portal open, and an Eldritch Abomination from the far realms crawled through.


However there was a complication: If something seems too good to be true, it usually is. The cabal had failed to read the fine print, and the reason why such a powerful ritual was rarely used, even by the most evil of mages, was because it granted the wish of the Sacrifice. And the nature of the ritual prevented any form of mind control from subverting the process.

Thus, Jackson found his spirit speaking with the Abomination. "State your wish human, and if it pleases me, I shall grant it. But after that, I will immediately consume your soul. Of course, you may not make any wish that would deny me possession of your soul."

Jackson, having spent the past week marinating in arcane reagents, had a lot of time to ponder about what wish he would make, if given the chance. "I wish to fuse our souls together, yours and mine as one."

The Abomination considered the request. "If we are fused, then I technically retain ownership of your soul. Thus, this wish is permissible. And it would anchor me to this plane of existence, allowing me to remain here indefinitely. Very well. But be warned, while your soul will survive the process, your mind might not."

"Er... wait, how about if I wish for..."

"It is too late human. The wish is made, and I have accepted. Prepare yourself for eternity."

*****

Of course, the cabal had no idea what was supposed to happen, let alone what was currently going on. They assumed that the Abomination burrowing into Jackson's corpse, meant that the sacrifice was acceptable to the monster, or something.

Thus, when the Abomination-fused Jackson shattered its bindings and stood up from the altar, they believed everything was going according to plan, and started to petition the creature for the wish they sought.

What they got instead was a swift thrashing, and a mind wipe ritual.

*****

In the days that followed, Jackson seemingly resumed normal life. But once night approaches, and darkness covers the city. The Abomination assumes the form of Jackson's idealized heroine, becoming Magic Girl Jenova!



Complications
Motivation-Fame: Now that he has the powers he's always dreamed about, Jackson has decided the best way to use them is to amass fame, riches, and glory.

Motivation-Acceptance: Jenova on the other hand, seeks to gain allies in her new home, to help watch her back. And the best way to do so was to fight crime as a bombshell Magic Girl with an overly long name. (This might not seem terribly logical, but keep in mind Jenova's entire knowledge of Earth comes from ultra-nerd Jackson.)

Secret Identity: Magic Girl Jenova is secretly Jackson Cottonfield.

Responsibility-Job: Jackson is (still) a store clerk at the Comics & Games shop.

Relationship-Family: Jackson lives in the basement of the Cottonfield family home.

Appearance
Jackson is a typical scrawny nerd, of average height, with short black hair and brown eyes. His most prominent feature is a comically large pair of glasses (which is only there for show, now that his eyesight is perfect).

Jenova appears as a tall, slim woman, of the same height as Jackson (which is taller-than-average for women). Unlike Jackson, she has flowing silver hair and burning gold eyes. Although she technically does not need a mask, she wears one anyway. As Jackson's idealized heroine, Jenova is an astounding beauty.

Are you converting MG to 3e? Where do you want to go with MG Jenova? Cool name!

I added the completed apps to the OP.

[JeminiZero]

Are you converting MG to 3e?

Jenova is 3E. Although not 3.2E Valiant, since her healing is based on the d20herosrd version.

The current post is only 120PP/PL8. I'm still mulling about what to do with her excess points.

Where do you want to go with MG Jenova?

Mechanics wise, Mages are among the most versatile build possible since Magic can do virtually anything. Hence she will aim to provide whatever the party doesn't have. E.g. Mind Control if there is no Psychic, Quickness if there is no Speedster, etc. The current post has Healing, but I will swap it if Panacea BioShock gets in.

Plot wise, since this is a one-shot, I don't foresee any long term character developments. But if there were, Jackson Cottonfield would likely be trying to crawl his way up the social ladder.

Cool name!

Thanks!

Is it too late to make a character?

Is it too late to make a character?

The application deadline was extended until the 17th, so that should be fine (although the GM obviously has the final say). If you do, note that the amount of PP was increased to 150.
