Yes, total party kills should never be accidental. Always intend them when they happen.

So, they're a lot like politicians...

That sounds a lot like the film version of Moonraker.

I bid 400 quatloos.

"That's the problem, Doom. All you evil megalomaniac types want to take over the world. But none of you know what you're going to do with it once you've got it."

The write-ups I saw for Havok and Cyclops both had Personal Immunity on their powers with a note that due to being brothers and all, it protected them from the other.

There's a fairly large number of novels around the DC characters. The Marvel novels tend to be either Spider-Man or the Hulk.

Black and White (Icarus Project, Book 1) Shades of Grey (Icarus Project, Book 2) Jackie Kessler and Caitlin Kittredge Half of each book is Superhero. The other half is Supervillain. http://www.jackiekessler.com/blackandwhite/

Pretty sure she was referring to the D&D settings.

McCoy was phased, believe me. Used to run around in a back brace to stand up straight and used a mask of his old face to cover up the beast.

I never realized Mr. Magoo's first name was Archie.

What do the cybernetic arms do?

VPP - Mimic Pool with a limitation on it to limit him to 50% capacity of the target.

It goes on to say, because it isn't a counter to a power. No. What I am saying is that it would not be a separate power. It would have been listed simply as a "how to" example.

In which case there is no reason to have it as an ability in the rule book separate from Enhanced Vision Perception.

Only if you're using a modern day bias.

I thought I had that in my Photobucket, Hyper-Man. I know I've got the page. I'll have to see about scanning it.

Why get hung up on what it's called when the rulebook spells out what it does? "The character can see in total darkness..."

The scary ones are the ones whose only interaction with an RPG was a video game. "We run around in circles until we meet something."

I feel that "goons" rank lower, a lot lower, than "agents".

If you really want them to have some defense, give them a device (helmet) that bestows some mental defense, if they feel that the target warrants it.

I still use that from time to time as a rough guide.

Must be too dark to see the difference.

“So, who's winning the argument?” Jason smiled with half his mouth without looking up. “She is.” Dani slipped down to sit beside him, her arm pressed against his. “She usually did.” “Only when it was important.” With a crimson flash, Jason changed the pencil he was working with. “So, how is Cory doing?” “Cody,” she corrected him. “Cody decided that he's going into the Marines. He shipped out for basic last week. That sucks on top of him graduating early.” Jason nodded his head in understanding, but kept working on his drawing. “But...” Jason sighed and disappeared the pencil. Dani took a look at the picture before he closed the pad. “It's scary how well you can draw her,” she said quietly. “But?” “Oh, well, see there was a problem at the ranch.” Dani threw herself up off the ground, practically dancing. “See, when Cody told me he was leaving, he kind of, uh, punctuated it with a kiss.” “First time kiss?” Dani blushed. “That's not the point!” “Then what is?” Jason asked. The question was heavy with perturbation. “Well...” “Dani.” Jason couldn't help but accent it with annoyance. “I kinda burned down my grandfather's equipment barn.” Jason cocked an eyebrow at her. “What do you mean you burned it down? How?” Dani gave him a mischievous smile while raising her hand palm up. “Kinda like this,” she said and a flame sat in her open palm. Within a few moments her hand ignited. And then the flames raced up her arm. “So your powers came in,” Jason said. “Fire suits you. What are you going to do?” “What do you mean 'fire suits me'? Are you saying that I'm fiery or something?” The flames went out. “No,” Jason said. “All things considered, you've got a pretty good temperament. Fire is also used to refer to passion. And that's pretty much you in everything you do.” “Oh.” Dani smiled at him. “I've got to finish school, and I need to learn what all I can do, but after that, I figured I'd go into the family business with my mom,” she said grinning. “Yeah,” Jason sighed. “Your mom. I need to go apologize to her.” Dani's grin faded and she cocked her eyebrow up at him. “For what?” “My mouth ran faster than my brain.”
