My friend and I were looking through the Mutants and Masterminds core rulebook, because his dad owns a copy, and were thinking of trying it out sometime. I was just wondering if there was anyone who has played, and hopefully understands it well. I want a few recommendations on different character ideas that would be good for beginners. I know that there are a few Race/Archetype pairings that are really powerful, but I'd like something that isn't too complicated to play well, and allows me to enjoy something a bit different than Dungeons and Dragons, which I'm most familiar with.
