PL 10 (150) Character Builds for M&M 3e

[MutantDragon]

So, there are tons of character builds out there for a wide variety of different character types, but I wanted to see if we can assemble a thread of PL 10 (150) characters that are ready to play from the word go. This can include PL 10 versions of famous superheroes from comics or animation, completely original concepts, or whatever else. With that said, I'll kick this off with my shots at Spider-Man, Superman, and Thor.

Ok, here's Hercules. Surprisingly, out of all my builds so far, he's the one who started the most over budget. Unfortunately, I had to drop his bow, a device with solid ranged damage and a nasty weaken effect. Oh well.

[TerrickTerran]

I like the Hercules. Shame about the bow but other than Immortality, I can't see much to even consider getting rid of.

[MutantDragon]

I like the Hercules. Shame about the bow but other than Immortality, I can't see much to even consider getting rid of.

Thanks. Honestly, since this build is meant as pre-divine-ascension, you're probably right about the immortality. That'd free up ten points for other things to round out the build.

[MutantDragon]

So, here's another build. Basic paragon minus a bunch of skill in exchange for a ridiculous amount of raw power (potential lifting strength of 70 without extra effort? And do you see that flying speed?). Most of the more ridiculous stuff isn't particularly useful in combat, but great role-play fodder.

So, here's a Molecule Man lookalike. With only 150 points, I'm not entirely satisfied. The defenses especially are low. His Will/Fortitude is PL 5, and his Toughness/Dodge and Toughness/Parry are more 8.5. Not great, but the workaround is to throw up a big, impervious, movable, selective bubble with the create power and hide behind it. Not ideal, but transform is expensive and needs high ranks in order to affect anything bigger than a bicycle.

Well, I had an idea for a PL 10 deity who can actually create whole worlds and such. I created it for 150 points. I had to do some ruthless cutting on abilities, skills, and advantages, and I had to nix a whole bunch of powers, but I managed it. This character can genuinely create Earth-sized planets and a little more than a thousand animals and an equal number of humanoids for the initial populations of the planets. So, without further ado, here it is.

It occurs to me that I could improve the deity build by changing two things:
1. Make the Create power Distracting and Impervious. The planet really should be a lot harder to destroy.
2. For the Strength power, drop 20 points from power lifting and drop ten of those into the Close Combat Advantage and another ten into Impervious Toughness.

[Madwand99]

I like the Deity idea. Can't have Permanent effects in an array, though. Impervious is also pointless when Toughness is so high.

[MutantDragon]

I like the Deity idea. Can't have Permanent effects in an array, though. Impervious is also pointless when Toughness is so high.

Darn it. Permanent effects can't be in arrays? Well, #*%$. There goes all hopes of fitting it in at 150 points.

[Madwand99]

Darn it. Permanent effects can't be in arrays? Well, #*%$. There goes all hopes of fitting it in at 150 points.

Your best alternative is the Continuous modifier, but it is +1.

[MutantDragon]

Your best alternative is the Continuous modifier, but it is +1.

Yeah, probably. So, now I need to get save an extra two points per rank or reduce the rank. Hmmm...Unreliable could get me a point per rank back, and the rest could probably be gained through increasing the Check Required a bit.

[MutantDragon]

Just realized Divine Wrath is too high (and shouldn’t have an attack roll). So, yeah, that needs to get reduced a couple ranks.

[MutantDragon]

Ok, so, I have revisited the good ol' matter manipulator build. Utilizing some knowledge about increased mass I didn't have when I made the first build, I have brought forth a new version that I like a lot better. Like, it went from one of my least favorite builds to a strong contender for my absolute favorite. Without further ado, the revised matter manipulator is now available for your reading pleasure!

Another build I recently revisited was Superman's.While there's nothing inherently wrong with my original crack at it, I recently discovered that you can array powers off of the damage portion of Strength, seemingly fixing a problem most "low" powered Superman builds have: lifting heavy stuff while doing practically anything else. Now, a flaw with this method is that heat vision won't be much of a threat to anything but mooks. Really, though, when has his heat vision ever been as effective as his fists when it comes to fighting the big bad of the story? Plus, I got to add a lot more stuff to this version, and I finally put the senses in an array and some extra power lifting in with low speed flight as part of the movement array, things many would be Superman builders have suggested before me. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this version.

Love Godzilla. If I ever run a game, that's who I'm playing.

Hey, glad you like it. I had a lot of fun building him.

[MutantDragon]

All righty, folks. I will start this post with a full disclosure: this build was born out of my total inability to satisfyingly create Darth Vader. He's just too good at too many things. So then I made this build. After shaving thirty points off of it. Which was already a good 55 points cheaper than my already watered down Vader build. The point is, force users are wickedly expensive, due to needing a lot of skills and advantages on top of high abilities and a decent expenditure on powers. Yeah, this was sanity testing. Anyway, here's the build.

An easy way to shave points from that build to fit more other things is just reducing the rank of the mind trick, "it works only against weak willed people" can translate to "I have a low rank in it" (unlike kyloren who does seems to have a high rank in it)
Wait you were using an array?
Never-mind.
