Lastly, since he sees his hero as a real combat expert, Jon gives him Fighting 8. Each ability rank costs 2 power points, so Jon has spent 68 of his points, just over a third. Next, he looks at skills. He wants his hero to be quite skilled and makes a wish list of the skills he wants.
He starts out assigning 8 ranks to each of those skills—knowing skills cost 1 power point per 2 ranks—but that would use up more than his re- maining points! That leaves him with 53 power points remaining.
He buys up his Dodge from 5 for his Agility to 14 for 9 points and his Parry from 8 for his Fighting to 14 for 6 points. He increases Will from 2 for his Awareness to 8 for another 6 points and gives his hero Fortitude 8, adding 5 points to his basic Stamina 3.
His hero has Toughness 3 from his Stamina and his Toughness defense can be up to 6, given his Dodge and Parry of He takes 3 ranks of Defensive Roll, giving his hero a total Toughness rank of 6, for 3 points. That brings Jon to equipment. He puts together a list of equipment, including an array of weapons for his hero. He asks Jon to make them devices, taking them as powers with the Removable modifier see page His 15 points worth of equipment needs 3 ranks of the Equipment advantage, which Jon notes.
Looking over the power effects, he puts together the following devices:. The rest he wants to put into other advantages. He also decides to give him a headquarters, the Roost, worth another 15 equipment points. That brings his Equipment rank up to 6, for the remaining 3 points. Jon notes some Complications he thinks might suit his hero, getting some ideas he can give the GM to earn extra hero points during the game. His hero is motivated by justice above all else, even if it means operating outside of the law.
He believes right and wrong are not mere abstract concepts. Not everyone agrees with his activities, however, so he keeps his true identity as Jack Cooper, dotcom millionaire, a secret.
Motivation--Justice: The Rook is looking to bring justice to those who deserve it—whether it be the victims of a crime or the perpetrators. He believes in right and wrong no matter the circumstance. Identity: No one knows the Rook is actually Jack Cooper, and he plans to keep it that way for as long as he can. Right off, Julia knows Princess is strong, really strong. That Strength is enough for Princess to lift a hundred tons!
She can heft that car with ease! Julia gives her Stamina 12 to match. Julia wants Princess to be a capable close-up fighter, so she gives her Fighting 6. Next up: powers. Julia wants Princess to be fast and tough. She gives her 4 ranks of Speed, allowing her to keep up with a slow-moving car, and assigns her 5 ranks in Im- munity allowing her to ignore cold, disease, heat, pressure, and radiation along with some Impervious Toughness 8 ranks and Regeneration 2 ranks.
Given her great Strength and Agility, Julia also sees Princess as being able to jump re- ally far, so she gives her 7 ranks in Leaping as well. Julia looks over the advantage list, taking notes as she goes. She likes the idea of Princess being a real toughy: having things like Diehard and Ultimate Tough- ness, along with Interpose allowing her to take the hit for a teammate. But she also wants her to be quick and inspirational. Julia asks the Gamemaster about one more advantage: she wants Princess to have a secret identity, but not to have to wear a mask.
She and the GM agree that stretches even the normal comic credulity a bit without some sort of ex- planation. The GM agrees, but says that it should be a Feature effect see page rather than a Benefit advantage in that case. She looks at defenses first: Fortitude and Toughness are already maxed- out by her Stamina 12, and she notes that.
She decides to go to the limit with all three of them, for a total cost of 11 points, leaving 13 to spend. She puts 4 ranks each into Acrobatics and Athletics, and 3 into Stealth. Since a lovely young woman lifting a truck can be pretty impressive, she decides to give Princess 4 ranks of Intimida- tion, and rounds it out with 6 ranks of Perception. Looking at Complications, Julia decides Princess has a boyfriend who was present when she gained her powers and therefore knows her secret identity.
Lastly, her heroine is motivated by a desire to help people. Julia shows the character sheet and her sketch of Princess in costume to the Gamemaster for approval. Identity: Jessica keeps her secret life as Princess a secret. These abilities influence most things your character does. Stronger characters can lift greater weights, more agile characters have better balance, tougher characters can soak up more damage, and so forth.
Strength, Dexterity, Agility and Stamina are physical abilities, whereas Fighting, Intellect, Awareness, and Presence are mental abilities. Each above-average ability pro- vides a bonus on certain die rolls; while below average abilities apply a penalty.
Abilities start at rank 0, the baseline average for an adult human being. They can go as low as —5 truly terrible and as high as 20, with higher values reserved for truly cosmic beings and forces.
The ability rank is added to, or subtracted from, die rolls when your character does something related to that ability. For example, your Strength rank affects the amount of damage you do when punching someone.
Your Intellect rank comes into play when you roll skills based on Intellect, and so forth. Sometimes your rank is used to calculate another value, such as when you use your Agility to determine how good you are at avoiding harm with your reflexes your Dodge defense. Increasing an ability rank by 1 costs 2 —5 Completely inept or disabled power points, so putting two points into Strength, for ex- ample, raises it from 0 to 1. Remember a rank of 0 is av- —4 Weak; infant erage, 2 is a fair amount of talent or natural ability, 3 is —3 Younger child exceptional, 4 extraordinary, and so forth.
See the Ability —2 Child, elderly, impaired Benchmarks table for guidelines. Each rank you lower an 3 Gifted ability gives you an additional two power points to spend 4 Highly gifted elsewhere. You cannot lower an ability rank below —5, 5 Best in a nation which is itself a serious deficiency. A character can have a superhuman ability rank without necessarily being anything other than an amazingly talented, well-trained human being.
A character apply it. Your Strength rank applies to: with a high Intellect rank tends to be knowledgeable and well-educated. Your Stamina dom. Pres- er hazards. Whenever an ability rank changes, all traits associated with the ability change as well.
Debilitated ability ranks usually result from a power af- fecting your character. Ability ranks cannot be lowered any further once they are debilitated. These beings automatically fail any check requiring the absent ability. The additional effects of an absent ability are as follows:. Creatures with no Stamina suffer and recover from damage like inanimate ob- jects see Damaging Objects under the Damage. They are immune to fatigued and exhausted defenses apart from Toughness and Fortitude, if conditions, but cannot exert extra effort.
Creatures they are alive. They have chapter. They have no Fortitude defense. Animate, but nonliving, constructs such as ro- instinct or pre-programmed instructions. Anything bots or zombies have Strength, Agility, and Dexterity, and with no Intellect is immune to mental effects and in- may have ranks of Awareness and Presence if aware of teraction skills and has no Will defense.

It associated abilities. You can increase your defenses above incorporates constitution, ruggedness, metabolism, and the values granted by your ability ranks by spending pow- immunity.
Parry defense is based on Fighting. This reflects that greater-than-normal Toughness is virtually always some sort of special ability. See the Advantages and Powers chapters for various options for improving Toughness, notably the De- fensive Roll advantage and the Protection effect. Limits on your mobility, focus, and reac- tion time adversely affect them.
If you are vulnerable, your Dodge and Parry defense ranks are halved divide their normal values by 2 and round up , and if you are defense- less, they are both reduced to 0! So you might make a Fortitude re- sistance check for your hero to overcome a toxin, for ex- ample, or a Dodge resistance check to avoid a trap just as it is triggered, and so on.
Each skill has a rank, used as a bonus to the die roll when using the skill. To make a skill check, roll:. Determine the degree of suc- trained in that skill. You can use some skills even if you cess normally and then increase it by one degree. Some skills may not be used untrained. If you use a skill untrained, the Give your hero skill ranks by spending power points: 2 skill ability modifier still applies to the skill check.

The higher the total, the better the result. Based on the circumstances, your result must match or beat a particular number to use the skill successfully.

These additional skills help round out a character and provide some background color and—who knows? A scientist is likely to have ranks in Technology.

In this case the Gamemaster may prefer players limit themselves to only what Expertise skills their heroes have rather than what they may or may not know about a given situation. See the Hero Points section for guidelines. This list is by no means exhaustive, the GM should feel free to add to or modify this list as needed to suit the game and the characters in it.
Example: Figuring out a particular clue involving a government conspiracy requires an Investigation or Expertise: Poli- tics check. Expertise: Journalism might suffer a —5 penalty, but could still be useful especially if the character works a legal or political beat as a reporter , while Expertise: Cooking is no help at all, and cannot be used for the check unless the player comes up with a very clever explanation!

Suc- as Deception or Intimidation. Make an Intimi- dation check as a standard action. If it succeeds, your tar- get is impaired a —2 circumstance penalty on checks un- til the end of your next round. With four or more degrees of success, the target is disabled a —5 penalty until the end of your next round. If the group has you at a disadvantage, you suffer the usual circum- stance penalty on your check. Compare your check re- sult against a single resistance check made by the GM for the entire group.
Your Intimidation check must have the same effect on every member of the group that is, you cannot demoralize some and coerce others, for ex- ample. Example: Rocky is facing down Pack-Rat in one of his many bolt holes around Emerald City when the big rat commands a pack of his street thieves to keep Rocky from following him. The street kids are all Thugs, so they have a resistance rank of 0 their Insight and Will ranks are tied.
Since Rocky is attempting the same effect on every member of the group, he makes a single opposed check. You know how to search for and study clues, gather in- formation through interviews and surveillance, and ana- lyze evidence to help solve crimes.
The GM may make In- vestigation checks for you in secret, so you do not know exactly what you have found, or if you may have missed something. Perception allows you to immediately notice things, while an Investigation check allows you to pick up on details with some effort. This assumes no obvious reasons exist why information would be withheld.
The degree of the To determine how long it takes to search a given area, take check result determines the completeness and detail of the total area measurement in square feet, yards, or miles , the information.

Failure means the explosive fails to go off as planned. Two or more degrees of failure mean the explosive goes off as the detonator is being installed!
Disarming an explosive also requires a Technology check. The DC is usually 10, unless the person who set the deto- nator chose a higher disarm DC previously. If you fail the check, you do not disarm the explosive. With more than a degree of failure, the explosive goes off. Setting or disarm- ing a detonator is a standard action.

Superheroes have been a part of our culture for generations. They have become a kind of modern mythology — tales of champions and villains with powers and abilities beyond those of ordinary mortals, locked in a never-ending battle of good versus evil. Superheroes have been a part of the world of roleplaying for quite some time, too. Now this newest edition takes the game a step further.
All you need now are some dice, some friends, and your imagination to join the never-ending battle for justice!
Gamemasters, you can check out the Gamemastering chapter to create your own adventures. Whole worlds of action and adventure are now in your hands! In essence, it is like when you used to pretend to be a superhero as a kid, just with rules and dice, and sitting around a table with friends rather than running around in a homemade cape although you can still wear the cape, if you really want to. The Gamemaster sets up the story, tells the other players what is happening, and controls the actions of the villains and supporting characters.
The other participants, the players, each take the role of a specific hero, the main characters of the story. Things proceed in a back-and-forth manner, with the GM explaining the unfolding story how a supervillain is robbing the bank and trying to escape with his ill-gotten gains, etc.
In the process, the whole group creates an exciting story, just like you find in the comic books. Like all games, roleplaying games have rules. Is the hero strong enough to tear a car door off with her bare hands? Did too! However, you only need one essential rule: if it makes for a fun and interesting story for your group, then do it! No set of mechanical rules is going to encompass every possible situation, and sometimes the rules will return odd or even nonsense results. When that happens, feel free to overlook the rules and do what is the most fun.
This book contains all the information you need to play the game. The Basics chapter starts you off with a quick overview of how the game works.
After you read it, flip through the rest of the book and see the various options for creating heroes. Then you can read the following chapters thoroughly to see which options appeal to you the most. Your character might be The possibilities are almost limitless! For more information, visit www. Green Ronin Publishing maintains the website www.
They give you an inside look at how the game works and how to ensure you and your group get the most out of it.
It is designed as a complete stand-alone game system.
