Growth Spurt

"So...We're going to do like, an actual team? We got a name for that?" Visionary has taken a seat next to the others, although he doesn't order. Advantage of synthetic life is that you don't have to eat "Also I'm the Visionary by the way...I'm, uh, new" "

"This...this is a bad idea..." Visionary hovered over the street outside the noodle shop. He had seen the message on CapesList and, as a self proclaimed defender of Emerald City, he figured he should show up. However he also realized his father being Talos is pretty common knowledge, mostly because he was very open about that fact when asked, and most heroes were (understandably) slow to trust him. On the one hand showing up here could convince some of them he really was a hero, on the other hand it could lead to him getting attacked, and while it was unlikely they could do any lasting damage he did not wish to burn bridges he hadn't built yet... Ah well, whats the worst that could happen. The red skinned artificial lifeform finally worked up the nerve to enter, full knowing what the worse that could happen was. "Hello...folks..."

Ok! That should be all the issues fixed!

"Put the noisemaker down buddy" Dogpound rushed forward landing a haymaker square in the goons jaw. The force would send that goon straight to the ground, unconcious. He kicks the fallen crooks gun away as he heads to the front, his fighting spirit burning like a lit match. "Somebody could get hurt."

I'll take the ten and sock the gunner in the face

Bloodhound Anti-Earth version of Dog Pound. After gaining his powers he went on a one man rampage through the criminal underworld, trying to take over the local mob, before being beaten and nearly killed by the Tyranny League as they saw a new superhuman taking control of the Freedom City crime as a threat. He now works under them...and plots their demise think starscream More TBA as I come up with them

The Visionary Power Level: 10 Unspent Power Points: 0 Trade-Offs: -5 Attack / +5 Damage, -5 Defense / +5 Toughness In Brief: The rebellious son of Talos Catchphrase: "You guys should really stop comparing me to my Father!" Theme: Legends by the Score Alternate Identity: Julian Ceaser Birthplace: Foundry lab Residence: Emerald City Base of Operations: Emerald City Occupation: Superheroic "Defender" of Emerald City Affliations: N/A at this time Family: Talos (Father) Maxwell Mars (Grandfather) Description: Age: 4 years (2016) Apparent Age: 16 Gender: Male Ethnicity: Synthetic Lifeform Height: 5'4 Weight: 175 Eyes: Blue Hair: Bleach White A surprisingly lanky teenager, often wears a Green, skintight suit with a pair of yellow gloves, boots, and cape. His skin is deep red and his eyes are all solid blue and glowing. His hair also seems to give off a similar glow. History: Talos' perfect creation. The first fully artificial lifeform that has always eluded him before then...and a crushing failure as it carried the human qualities of compassion, kindness, and (ew) emotions. Talos forced the creation into hypersleep, where he would be kept for 4 years. During the destruction of the Foundry facilities by Talos he was woke by the destruction of his Hypersleep pod's power source, barely escaping the implosion of the lab. Angered by the fact his "father" had abandoned him to die in hypersleep, Visionary set out to be the exact opposite of what his original intend purpose was. Rather than be a weapon to destroy natural life, he chose to become a champion of life, a hero, a paragon... Personality & Motivation: As mentioned before, Visionary's main motivation in being a superhero is to spite Talos. Despite this Visionary has read up on and observed other heroes, basing much of his personality on the deceased Centurion and other Paragons and Golden/Silver Age heroes, behaving and talking in the most over the top heroic fashion that he could from his observations. Sometimes coming off as a Parody of a superhero because of that. Almost overly friendly, always hopeful, this personality only drops in cases involving Talos. Powers & Tactics: Flight and Nigh invulnerability makes Visionary a perfect living shield and when it comes to anything involving civilians that is almost his go to. Photon laser vision and super strength makes him the perfect weapon to handle villains and monsters with... Power Descriptions: Blue-White energy beams for Photon vision, the rest are simple strength affects with no outstanding bonus effects Complications: Daddy Issues: Hatred of Talos sometimes clouds his judgement. Parody: Can often come off as "too" heroic, casting suspicion on him Abilities: 10 + 2 + 10 + 0 + 2 + 4 = 28PP Strength: 40 [20] (+15/+5) Dexterity: 12 (+1) Constitution: 40 [20] (+15/+5) Intelligence: 10 (+0) Wisdom: 12 (+1) Charisma: 14 (+2) Combat: 10 + 10 = 20PP Initiative: +1 Attack: +5 Base Defense: +5 Base, +3 Flat-Footed Grapple: +28 to +20 (Super-Strength) Knockback: -12/-2 Saves: 0 + 4 + 6 = 10PP Toughness: +15/+5 (+5 Con, +10 Enhanced Con) [10 Impervious] Fortitude: +15/+5 (+5 Con, +10 Enhanced Con) Reflex: +5 (+1 Dex, +4) Will: +7 (+1 Wis, +6) Skills: 24R = 6PP Diplomacy 8 (+10) Notice 8 (+9) Sense Motive 8 (+9) Feats: 6PP Fearless Interpose Leadership Luck Takedown Attack Ultimate Save (Toughness) Powers: 20 + 21 + 10 + 10 + 19 = 80PP Descriptors: all bionic Enhanced Constitution 20 (to Constitution 40 [+15]) [20PP] Enhanced Strength 20 (to Strength 40 [+15] Alternate Power) [21PP] AP: Blast 10 (Photon Vision) {20/20} Immunity 10 (Life Support, Starvation and Thirst) [10PP] Impervious Toughness 10 [10PP] Paragon Array 8 (16PP Array, Feats: Alternate Power, Dynamic 2) [19 PP] DBE: Flight 0-8 (0 - 2500 MPH / 0 - 25000' per Move Action) {2-16} DAP: Super-Strength 0-8 (Effective Strength 40-80, Heavy Load: 3 tons - 1440 tons) {2-16} Drawbacks: (-0) + (-0) = -0PP DC Block ATTACK RANGE SAVE EFFECT Unarmed w/no Powers Touch DC 20 Toughness Damage [Physical] Unarmed Touch DC 35 Toughness Damage [Physical] Totals: Abilities (28) + Combat (20) + Saving Throws (10) + Skills (6) + Feats (6) + Powers (80) - Drawbacks (0) = 150/150 Power Points Report Record

rolled 12 on strength, that get the door open? https://orokos.com/roll/793452

Dog Pound leaned against the back door of the shop. The people who had gone in looked suspicous, sure, but he didn't really have any evidence that they were up to something. Of course it was always better to be safe than sorry with these things, and he wasn't going to just leave, especially now that he was in his uniform. Only mildly disappointed by the locked back door (Damn, thought I was being clever), he hung out around back waiting to hear if any trouble started...and then he heard the crashes...and immediately he kicked the door open, busting the lock as he made his way into the shop.

If thats the case I'll probably wait to make ol' Growth Spurt then. Already can play with Dog Pound for now

So I got an idea for a Claremont student, a PL8 Powerhouse who is a scrawny nerd with the ability to bulk himself up to superhuman strength and build. His muscle-form would be where most of his powers come from but has the downside of lowering his overall IQ whenever he uses it. I have NO IDEA how to build that in 2e however...any suggestions?

Just going around the back, hanging out till something happens.

Jack headed into a secluded ally to change into his outfit. It's a simple disguise but it's one that he felt he needed. Don't want people figuring out who he is and coming after him... He returned to the street, silk mask and coveralls on, and headed for the stores back door, planning to take the crooks from the back.
