Probably a good 40 MPH. Those things are awesome.

Alright.

Passable tinkering = Average Handiwork = 15

Feruchemical Iron = 40

Incredible balance = 15

Rocket Shoes = 25

Anorexia + Physically weak = -20

15 + 40 + 15 + 25 - 25 = 95 - 20 = 75

 

Character approved. I'll add her to the list in a couple of days, you can start using her, without waiting for that.

Hey,

So a few quick questions: what type of body armor does he use, how strong is it? And the steel bone replacement: was only one bone replaced or the whole skeleton?

A Kevlar vest, and only one bone. The bone is just there to be a metalmind

Also, how is someone like that still on the police force? Someone with a kill first attitude would be kicked out quite quickly, possibly even arrested for murder or police brutality.

If this was in the real world, you would be absolutely right. The Alleyverse isn't nearly as peaceful, though.

Assassinations and war are different things from police just straight-up murdering. I don’t remember whether assassinations are officially illegal, but all the natural (not exactly the best word, but we’ll go with it) deaths are something else entirely. And nobody is going to try and arrest a Denizen for murder. Police forces exist to keep the peace, and I don’t think even one in the Alleyverse would be okay with a kill first attitude.

So I will get the rating up somewhere in about 10 hours, I can't do that while sitting in a car.

As for the discussion about his motives and behaviour, please move that to the character discussion thread. Thanks ^_^

===============

Here's the rating:

Investiture: Twinborn

A-Chromium (35) // F-Steel (50)

 

Skills:

Guns-skilled (60)

Combat awareness, spotting criminal oddities (Scholarship 'Police-Officer' average 10 // took the liberty to combine both into one skill and lowered the points a little)

Equipment: Aluminum-alloy shotgun, aluminum-alloy bullets, metalminds (steel bracers piercing his skin, steel replacement bone), aluminum police phone, police hat (it's lined with aluminum), police car. Can requisition an aluminum-alloy sniper rifle

body armor (10)

Aluminum is pretty easy to come by, so I won't substract any points for this. Still I'd like to ask you to rp this equipment in a responsible way, and should it come to a battle please keep in mind, that equipment can be lost or damaged. I assumed that his replaced bone is in no place that is helpful (like an unbreakable arm). Should that be the case please let me know.

 

Weakness:

Suspicious of non-police.

Extreme hatred for people who do not respect the authority of the police. (-5)

Favors fighting over other solutions. (-10)

 

Total: 85 + 80 + 10 + 10 - 15 = 185 - 15 = 170

The character is a little too strong. Please either add more weaknesses, or reduce his skills. Addionally I'd like to ask you to make sure you adress people's concerns regarding him being part of the police force.

It still counts. You might get a discount for it as a weakness, but if they still have the ability then it’ll still count. 

Edit: And I forgot about this at first, but you need to know what a metalmind does to tap or fill it. You can’t do it subconsciously.

Ene is right, if you have an ability it will count into the points, because it is assumed generally, that your character will discover this ability at one point or the other. Would you like to edit your character sheet accordingly before I look it over?

INCORRECT!

(Sorry i just wanted to be dramatic :P)

In Bands of Mourning, Marasi and the rest of the party stored weight in the unsealed metalmind, before knowing what the metalmind was. Therefore, we can infer that you can in fact do it subconsciously!

No, they had to be told.

It's just her filling it. The key words are right at the bottom there: "As soon as he said it - as soon as she knew what it did -" Then she starts filling it.

Yep, just this. Here’s a picture anyway:

so this the first actual character I made on my own, so sorry in advance if it's unbalanced!

Spoiler

Name: Bob

Physical Characteristics: 6'3" , well built, brown hair and eye's/skin. 20 years old.

Investiture: epic 

Skills: trained in hand to hand combat. Two epic powers: teleportation and stun(couldn't find the word, sorry). Assassin.

Equipment: a hand mirror and a 6" silver knife.

Weakness: epic power: teleportation weaknesses: can only teleport to where he can physically see with his own eyes, (-15?) He can feel the distance he teleport's, and if he teleport's too far can physically injure himself (varies by distance) (-10?)

Epic power: stun weaknesses: cannot work on others epics, even if he is stronger than them (-15?) Every time he stuns someone, he feels the drag effects, as if he is being stuned as well, not inherently bad, but dangerous when on the field (-10?)

Feels pain for a longer period of time than normal people (varies by injuries) (-10?). Has a hard time with killing without reason, and regardless of his stun power, it can come to bite him hard (-10?) Suffers from a iron spike driven between his right ribs, making him easier prey for allowmancers (-15?) Afraid of the dark, as it ruins his teleportation (can't see, can't teleport) (-10?) Ten blows that draw blood within 24hours WILL kill him, ranging from cuts to bullets (-20??) Has a weak spot for children, and will do what he thinks is right, although not had on its own, it has led to his nearly dieing several times (lured by child, then jumped) (-10?)

Family: father was an epic, mother fled when she found out. Has a younger sister.

Home Planet: Earth.

Backstory: born and raised in Morocco. At the age of ten he discovered he was an epic and began training in combat, and testing the limits of his powers. His mother had fled when she learned not only her husband was an epic but that she had given birth to two children for one. Father did not believe in nice and clean, and would often hurt Bob and his sister, until he had killed their Father and fled, first taking his sister to the U.S and seeing to it that she was safe. A few years later he was given his first assassins contract, and has been at the job of assassination ever since. He came to the Alleyverse when he heard there was potentially higher payers.

Guild: Unaffiliated.

Personality: Aggressive and motivated.

Appearance: wears a black cloak, making him sometimes depicted as a shadow of death.

Fighting Style: Picks individual targets and chases them relentlessly until he can get close enough to stun them. When fighting groups, he constantly teleport's around, stunning who he can, and using his knife only if necessary.

Again, sorry if he is unbalanced, and if he is simply not possible, I'm okay with it. There should be about 125 against him, but I didn't catch how many points he had for himself.... Sorry!

Can't do a full scoring right now as I'm not at home, but a quick look would suggest this is within normal limits.
Will need to clarify what you mean by the 'stun' power though, like knock people unconscious? Just kind of daze them? Is it physical or mental? And what kind of duration would it last for?
