I don't doubt that a monkey could kick my ass (no, really. It hurts). But when you have 17 ranks in a skill with a PL 10 character, you tend to break the caps. The same goes with your might Strike, which gives you a damage bonus of +12, along with an attack bonus of +12, both melee, which makes this character at least PL 12. The Survival skill has 18 ranks in it, making the character PL 13.

Worse yet, you have Favored Environment, which gives you a +2 attack bonus, and Sneak Attack, which gives you a +2 damage bonus, making this character PL 14.


ok..well, those last two are "conditional modifiers" and I've never felt that they apply to the total when caps for PL were concerned...maybe I've understood things wrong. They only apply when those certain conditions are met...like...she wouldn't have the +2 attack in the middle of a city, or in a desert. And she certainly wouldn't get the Sneak Atk bonus when in front of someone.

but...I always envisioned her as a PL 12...so I'll have to bump her up to that, and then lower the Survival rank some...

I haven't been doing the same kind of building that I used too..and maybe thats my problem...I used to define the PL and PP first...then do the rest off of that...but lately, I've been racking up the powers, feats, and everything first...and let that define the character PL and PP total...because I feel that it's more of a natural creative process.

Conditional modifiers do affect the PL. That's why those feats have lines saying "the ... cannot exceed PL limits".

INI: 11


Note that your melee attack is +12. Your Str gives you +8 damage. You have Strike 4, giving you a total damage of +12. You are *way* out of caps.
That doesn't even count the potential use of Favored Evironment to break them further. Unless you only use one Favored Environment feat, and only for defense....

Skills: Acrobatics 28; Climb 22; Handle Animal 14; Intimidate 15; Sleight of Hand 27; Stealth 27; Survival 20



Skill max at PL 10 is 15 ranks. + 11 from Dex would give Dex based skills at +26, not +28. Survival: 15 ranks +bonus of three =18 not 20. Sleight of hand and Stealth are 1 over each. Handle animal and Intimidate are doable.

Back Story: (another I will figure out later)

**ok, so Tamarin is my "Tigra" style character, cept for a kitty kat...I made a MONKEY!!! And...OMG...SHE'S A LVL TEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mushroomhead: Jeffrey Nothing

Jeffrey Nothing

Your just another number in a long line of no-one

PL: 7
PP: 110


Abilities: STR 12; DEX 13; CON 12; INT 14 WIS 15; CHA 16


Saves: Tough 1; Fort 2; Ref 2; Will 3


ATK: 2
DEF: 3
INI: 1


FEATS: All-out Atk; Benefit (4 ranks; Alt. Identity-1; Status-3); Contacts; Distract (3 ranks); Eidtic Memory; Elusive Target; Equipment (2 ranks);
Fascinate (4 ranks); Fearsome Presence (3 ranks); Hide in Plain Sight; Inspire (3 ranks); Leadership; Move-by Action; Seize Initiative; Taunt;
Teamwork (4 ranks); Well-informed


POWERS:
Sonic Control (10 ranks)
-Emotion Control (10 ranks; Extras: Area {Cone}; Flaws: Limited {Auditory};)
-Blast (6 ranks; Extras: Area {Cone})
Summon: "The Army"* (1 rank; Extras: Horde; Fanatical; Feats: Progressive x 13)


Skills: Concentration 13; Perform 14; Sense Motive 13

Equipment: Performance costume and variable props (8 ep)
Tour Bus + trailer (14 Ep *note: because of their status as a band, they split the cost of the bus between them, so Nothing has 2 ep of the bus. The rest is divided evenly among the rest of the band)

Complications: Fame, Hatred (Slipknot), Enemy (Slipknot)

Back Story: Jeffrey Nothing is the powerful, yet creepy butcher-styled lead singer of Cleveland based Metal band called Mushroomhead. If you don't know this band, you need too!!!


**Ok, so I've done Jeffrey Nothing, one of 2 lead singers for the heavy metal band Mushroomhead.
I've given him Sonic Control, because of his position of lead singer.
He also has Emotion control under the Sonic control, because...well...you need to go see them in concert, and you would understand.

now...every great band has crowds of fans, but "The Army" is something special. They are noticeable by appearance, and often marked by a tattoo of the band's symbol and/or Face paint that matches the band. Now, you will notice that summon is only rank 1, but progression is at 13...thats 10,000, 15 pnt minions. "The Army" are all done under the "bystanders" template, which is a power rank 0 minion. Only differenace is I gave them a Mass Concealment power (can't really tell one from another..and I'm pretty sure that you would have a hell of a time locating the band if they were in the middle of "The Army").
The Summons has Fanatical and Horde, meaning all 10,000 of these guys come out at once...and they all LOVE the band members.

He is a "Polar opposite" of Nothing when on stage, as Waylon has a more "fallen angel" appearance about him

Back Story: St1tch is probably one of the more reconized members of the band, after the lead singers. He is very out-spoken, and loves to be ALL OVER a stage, from top to bottom.

St1tch, like Benis, needs a device (his effects board) to give him the majority of his powers, though he still gets the Summon power without it.
