Must the item remain in hand for the projection/alt form to exist? That is, if she activates it and projects, and while she's off someone sneaks in and removes the device from her body, what happens?

If she just needs the item to activate/deactivate her power, then it might should be done as a Power Drawback, and not worth the full discount Device would give.

Well, I did some thinking, and it wouldn't have to remain in her possession for the Alternate Form to continue existing, but both her sleeping form and the projection need to touch the item to return her consciousness. It's more of a "key", important only when you need to open the door, than a brace to keep the door open.

But, now that I think about it, that's a neat idea, having her Alt. Form wink out of existence when its taken from her.

A character concept popped into my head, and I was curious how to arrange the Powers so as to avoid the ire of the Refs for an inadvertant exploit.

has an object that must be on hand in order to activate their alter ego, and is easily stolen. Where the confusion comes in is, their alter ego is only a projection a la Alternate Form, and their actual body falls asleep.

So, do I give the character themself a Device with the Alternate Form power within the Device, or only a Device with the alter ego's powers and add a fluff "regular identity falls asleep", or only the Alternate Form?

My apologies if this is a less-than-intelligent question, but when dealing with Powers that output more PP than input, I'd really like to be careful.
