HEROic Rules

The HERO system can do a lot of things , but it still needs some powers to allow the simulation of certain things. So being me I started creating new powers and skills to fill in the gaps.

New Power Matter Creation
    This power enables the hero to make lasting solid objects of a semi-permanent or permanent nature.  These objects have several characteristics that have to be determined when purchasing the power. Value , Size , and Utility.

Value 10 points lets you make inexpensive objects such as flowers , ice , playing cards , sandwiches or the like
         15 points lets you make items of value such as clay statues, non-precious metals
         25 points lets you create expensive items like computers , cars , diamonds etc
Size   1-100 points (at GM's discretion ) usually 1 oz or cubic foot per point til 20 points then 1 pound or cubic
         yard til 50 1 ton or 10 cubic yards after that.
Utility -8 for items of no in game worth (roses, water, ice)
         +10 pts for items of non combat worth (computers, cars)
         +50 pts for items with combat worth (guns , explosives)
         -5 points if the items can only be of primitive complexity or must have no moving parts
         +10 points if the item is of 20th century complexity or above

The base time to create is a full segment for every 5 points of size, this time can be reduced by a segment for every +1/4 advantage purchased.

The base END cost of this power is 1 point per 10 active points.

The base power is not ranged.
    
So Masked Tuxedo can always make a rose to give to the ladies costs 10(Value)-8(no worth)+1(size)= 3 points
Icelad can make basic objects of pure ice up to 50 tons worth 10(no value)+50(size)+10(non-combat worth)-5(no moving parts) = 65 pts
Technomancer can whip up small advanced electronics on a few moments notice 25(value) +10(size)+ 50(utility)+ 10(complexity) =95 pts
Moleculord can make anything he can concieve of 25(value)+100(size)+10(non combat)+50(combat ) +10(complex) =195 pts

HERO-ic questions 

This idea is not original to me , but the web is a convienient place to post this. In most of my games I offer a chance for free Experience in exchange for some leverage questions . In D&D I offer (level x 25 exp ) each. In HERO system ,I offer 0-3 points each (usually 1) to a max of 50 points because they give me great hooks for the character and story. In other Marvel they are worth 10 karma a pop. Or in some games I just require the player answer any 10 questions to play their character. They give the GM some direction and ideas and more importantly force the player to think about thier character at some length.

Egg MacGuffin with Cheese

A plot hook device to explain anything in your world ...

The Horn of Legends
The Horn is an ancient device , although it may be older (horn of the cosmic bull of norse myth maybe) it appears to be a ram's horn trumpet with a mouthpiece of gold.

When blown at a sight , which is the origin point of a legendary thing with a hint of truth to it (which certainly includes belief or tradition), the Horn will produce the physical living embodiment of that legend. 

Could be used to create Godzilla, the Slasher, Dracula, Superman, or any number of others .  If the Horn is sounded again with the Legend within 12 feet the legend returns to nothingness - but now has the ability to re-emerge on certain times of the year...

Why wear a costume / have a secret Identity? 

A Champions/HERO game discussion applicable to most superhero games

Why wear a costume / have a secret Identity?

1. The costume and the persona it creates have real existence in  the jungian subconscious, making it possible to evade mystical and psionic attack an detection dues to the "Seperate" existance of the super and normal self.
In Champions game terms if you wear a costume you have a +5 EGDCV against mind scans and similar means of detection while in your secret ID.

2.All people in costume have extra natural presence in the world owing to the super celebrity status of superhumans.  This extra presence can be lost by humiliation or defeat, but all people in a comic universe have , since their infancy , been raised to believe that the costume signifies something powerful and dangerous.
In Champions terms an extra +10 presence is automatic for a person in costume .

3.The obvious protection in a court of law it provides for both heroes and villains alike, preventing positive identification and thus providing at least some measure of defense against prosecutors. Many superhumans on both sides of the law

4.Protection of family and friends as well as the innocent bystanders that happen to live in the same building. Even if a person doesn't fear for themselves they might not want to bring the wrath of Professor Nutcrusher down on their neighbors and their Aunt Jenny will be far likelier to live to 80 if she isn't being tortured for information on where Captian Obvious keeps his Secret Power Source.
An un-costumed super human seen in the act has an 8 or less chance of being tracked down by the various powers that be (on 3d6).  The opposite holds true for most costumed folks, as the urban legends about people "accidentally" discovering the secret identities of villains and to a lesser extent heroes who then suffer grisley fates abound.


Effects of having a public ID (no costume)

1.Well it's not all bad, having a public ID automatically entitles you to one level (5pts) of wealth between the basic effects of merchandising and free promotions/gifts and other offers.

2.You automatically get an 9 or less hunted by random persons interested in your life.  This can include stalkers . charities, lawers with summons, papparazzi, the IRS, criminal's families, victim's families, star-fuckers of all kinds, mercenary criminals , enemies and low life parasites of every variety.

3.Everytime you publicly defeat a major menace and get good press your wealth is effectively raised one level for 1d6 days while you remain the Flavor of the Minute.

4.Vulnerability of family and friends,who all now have an 8 or less chance of being tracked down by the various powers that be, stalkers, charities, lawers with summons, papparazzi, the IRS, criminal's families, victim's families, star-fuckers of all kinds, mercenary criminals , enemies and low life parasites of every variety.

5. You get 2 extra presence attack dice as long as you are getting good press.

6. You get a +4 to all Seduction rolls , being a super has it perks.

7. The time it takes to get anything done is at least doubled do to the number of people , be they process servers, papparazzi, starfuckers, detectives, FBI Agents or other hangers on seeking "a few minutes of thier time". 

The Blacks Hands Guild Laws

The Black Hand are the Thieve's and Assassin's Guild in my world, a criminal empire run by rutheless magic proof Irontooth Gnomes , and shamelessly based on real world criminal organizations. There are other criminal groups in my world, the Black Hand is the strongest and best organized of them.

There are 12 rules for the Black Hands Guild in the 7 Kingdoms, any violation of these rules calls for removal of the appendage on first infraction. The amount of removal based on the degree of violation. Limbs are removed by a blade if the Guildmaster feels the error was made with good reason, with fire or starving rats if the offense caused the guild danger or difficulty.

The Black Hands 2 Hands of Law:

Right Hand :No killing another member of equal or higher rank without permission , maiming requires a weregild be paid to the guild. Weregild to be set by the Grandfather. Lesser thieves may be slain with reason and a weregild must be paid to the grandfathers. Any who defy this law lose the Right Hand.

Left Hand :The Grandfathers word is law on his city. No tradework beyond basic pick pocketing or confidence schemes may be performed in a new place until you have made contact with the local grandfather and received permission. Any who defy this law lose the Left Hand.

The Lesser Laws of the Black Hand are known as "The Fingers of the Law" and to break them is to forfeit the involved finger.

The Black Hands 10 fingers are:

Right thumb. No one can present himself directly to another of our agents. There must be a third person to do it.

Left Thumb. No one may steal from a Wizard, High Priest, Member of High Nobility ,King or High Official without the word of the grandfathers.
