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

[MutantDragon]

Ok, so, I had a character idea regarding a newly minted god of the sea. A lot more elemental than a more Poseidon-y deity, this guy was actually pretty fun to build.

Alright, I've given up hope on getting back on track with my specialist mage builds. Here's another "new god" type concept that is actually pretty similar to my earlier deity build from the early days of this thread, though distinct enough conceptually and mechanically to be worth an entirely new entry.

Hmmm hadn't thought about it but a set of gods might make an interesting hero team especially at PL 10.

Yeah, that could make for a cool campaign. Interesting to think about, at the very least.

[MutantDragon]

Howdy, folks. This build here is very loosely inspired by some recent media consumption, this time a tv show. So we now have a sword-swinging, magic wielding, paranormal investigator build at PL 10. Enjoy.

Ok, here's a concept I came up with earlier: a smart and skilled hero who has your standard electric powers with the twist of being unable to throw around truly powerful lightning bolts unless he has access to metal. The metal armor limits how much that flaw will typically affect our hero, but that is just equipment... Strange thing to randomly latch onto and build? Maybe. But it is pretty cool to think about. At least I think so. And I'm always right. Just ask anyone who agrees with me.

Liking that paranormal investigator build and a little different with that zapper build.

[MutantDragon]

All righty, I've been playing around with some numbers and I have come up with a bit of a skill monkey build. Truly, this guy can whip out prodigious skill at any task you can think of, despite technically only having two skills. Ah, Variable is such a wonderful tool. In addition to that, though, our little genius has also modified himself with nanites. All of this is to say, I have assembled a new build.

Funny enough, Doc Ock is one of the few guys I actually had to scale up to hit my budget cap. He was initially a whopping 23 points below my overall budget, but I'm rather pleased with how he turned out in the end.

[MutantDragon]

Ok, I will go ahead and add an addendum to my Doc Ock build. Yes, I used a convoluted Move Object effect instead of a straight forward Limited Strength effect. Would that have worked? Yes. Would it have been simpler to build? Yes. Would it have been as fun to build? Probably not. Hence, the overly complicated version you see here.

[TerrickTerran]

Getting devices just right without going over or under is a very tricky thing to do but I think you're right on the mark here.

[MutantDragon]

Thanks! Devices are always tricky, but I'm glad you like how I did this one.

Side note: I know it's been awhile since I've done any new builds. I've just had things going on and doing my M&M builds shifted down my priority list on how to spend my free time. I'm going to get back into it soon, just gathering up some ideas of interesting new things to try making.

[MutantDragon]

Well, folks, I've finally slapped together a new PL 10 build. I had to cut back on certain things, especially skills, to make it fit the point totals, but this new build should do justice to its inspiration.

"Who is it?" you ask?

It's the great, grinning, purple suited maniac who has menaced one of the greatest superheroes of all time.

It's the villain who killed the Silver Age of Comics and ushered in the Bronze Age.

It's the villain who killed Gwen Stacy.

It's...

Ok, some notes. First off, this build is a composite of sorts. I.E. this is the omnitrix from the original series slapped onto a teenage Ben. Why? Because I had more points to spend on skills, abilities, and advantages than I could justify on a ten year-old Ben, dealing with a bunch of shrinking and growth powers gives me a headache, and I just wanted to stat the original ten aliens, darn it! Tip for the tourist: if you ever plan on doing more than ten aliens for an omnitrix variation, save yourself some trouble and just use variable. All that aside, revisiting my childhood like this was fun, so this is probably one of my new favorite builds.

[TerrickTerran]

Now that theme song will run through my head. I will always prefer young Ben-10 but I do get having him older for the skills. Fun build.

Now, some notes. First, this build is stupidly overpowered. If you find yourself thinking otherwise, hire a psychiatrist ASAP. Second, my original thought for the build was even worse, as I contemplated Enhanced Advantages (Sidekick) before deciding that was too cheesy even for me. Third, this build isn't based around anyone in particular and doesn't delve into catching Pokémon. The reasoning is simple; I'm not super knowledgable on all the lore, nor am I a huge fan of the media outside of the games, and I don't know where I'd start with mechanically representing pokéballs. Final note, besides the obvious acknowledgement that you could use the heal effect if you really want potions and revives: you may have noticed I didn't stat the Pokémon that are to be summoned. This is intentional because a) I don't want to spend my entire evening on that and b) it lets you customize exactly how your team is set up. But mostly a.

[MutantDragon]

Always enjoy a nice time manipulator build.

[MutantDragon]

Sorry, folks, for not posting in awhile. I should get back on track with these builds soon! In the meantime, if anyone wants to leave recommendations, please feel free!

[TerrickTerran]

One I'd like to see is someone who focus on more comedic stuff whether hero or villain. Like Pre-Dark Knight Joker, Toyman or multiple heroes from cartoons.

Roger that. I admit, I have been meaning to stat some guys like that up. Now I just need to figure out how to beef up jobber-ish joke characters or nerf ludicrously-unbeatable joke characters to make 'em fit 150 points. Oh well, shouldn't be too difficult if I put my mind to it. (I hope)

Anything done is appreciated.

[Willpower]

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.

Check required actually hurts more than it helps. Because the check is modified by how many points the power costs, and with powers this expensive, it is going to be an INCREDIBLY high DC.

Unarmed +7 (+3 Damage, DC 18)

Defense
Dodge +7, Parry +7, Toughness +13, Fortitude +8, Will +12

Yeah... I always consider Variable to replace buying skills a bit of a cheat, unless it REALLY works with a power scheme. And even then I am very much a stickler for following the rules with it, so you wouldn't be able to say, add it to Perception to keep from being surprised, unless you already had it placed in perception beforehand.

Yeah, it's definitely a game-y kind of power to grab. Granted, a lot of these builds end up being like that when the idea is to take a character from comics, tv, etc. or a random concept and turn it into a PL 10 (150) character sheet. Still, GM discretion is advised when anything like these kinds of builds comes up.

That said, I am now working from a sizable log of random builds I've been making to get myself back in the M&M mindset, so I should have several posts worth of new builds and build variations while I still get my head together for those more comedic characters I keep meaning to make. So, without further ado, I shall present one of those builds crafted when my curiosity shifted to mechanically representing a very specific Marvel villain: Bullseye.

The major note for this build is that it represents the semi-mythical literally-never-misses version of bullseye that only seems to exist when fighting unnamed characters. This is the obviously superhuman Bullseye who finger flicks a toothpick 100 meters through a window to kill some poor woman or who tosses a paperclip through a random vehicle's tire. I statted 'I'm up like this because it was a fun thought experiment, though a more typical Bullseye would probably drop "perfect shot" and transfer the 12 ranks of Ranged Attack from the Devastating Shot power to just his normal advantages. This version would still be ridiculously dangerous with throwing everyday objects, but would better represent the fact that a large percentage of his attacks don't actually hit their targets.

Ok, ok, I know I'm about twenty seconds from being ostracized for using the dodge/parry attack immunity from Power Profiles, but, c'mon, it's cool. That's all the justification I need.

Note of the Day: Subtle 2, especially with insidious, is really, really, really powerful. This is especially true when you consider everything has a perception range that works with the Psychic Perceptions power. This psychic can assassinate someone in the next room over and literally no one will notice until the target is dead, and, even then, there won't be anything that could cast suspicion on the psychic. That's not even getting into the various mind control powers or Alter Mind power. Overall, this is a very powerful and versatile build that exemplifies why psychics are scary.
