It is not that I don't like pl 10, I just like the mental workout one gets with a home brew game with a lot of weight (rules). These rules are:
Base 10 stats being str, dex, etc are being used at this time
1) pl5 no overage, no short
2) no trade offs
3) advantages and feats cost 2pp
4) stunts are 3
5) no free or bought off powers
6) must have real world drawback (shy, mental, relation of type, job, homeless, etc)
7) real crimes

9) real world impediments see rule 6
10) If a combined character, each character must have the shared traits bought for each combination, unless the combination makes a new power
(a symbiotic character vs. a character that changes it's head for different powers{thank you the person that came up with the head switch character to make this example possible})
11) skill to match power IE: power to fly means skill to pilot
Before I go further I must give a shout out to a person on the roll call's 50th+ page that made a pl5 toon character without buying off too many powers. I have a similar character I will someday update to here later.
And another shout out to all those that have done toon guys at any plvl any, got use to working with the search engine and finding things got a lot easier.
So simple put: Thank you.
Feels good to pop that over the 69th view cherry, yeah small life goals.
Knock around ideas: (still pl5, can be open, but as to be cited sources) and I want to use them and treat them as a character that could operate in real or cyber life. If you are wondering why children's shows are listed I'm an uncle of a young one whom/who I'm trying to teach gaming to for them to learn math, counting, & socializing.
1) The children's show "Wally Kazam" making the actual "Wally" with minion dragon (with the mecha & manga fetch command for letter related objects and animal heal), non-lose-able indestructible magic letter needing word spouting creation / form altering wand of magic words & letters AND when the letter is stolen everything is De-powered from the magic wand, plus 2 allies (usually speaking in song or about animals...tried using well informed), and finally 1 nemesis that speaks in riddles or thinks something counter to the hero(s)' ideas are best.
2) Anime character quadruple symbiotic soul eater with Maka, Maka's latent weapon blood (from her mother who is a mister and not from the dad who's a weapon) and black blood (business demon of chaos)
3) Reboot time/modem pirate detective electric based snooper
4) a guy whose powers are only the flaws that normal are attached to the powers, not a power loss guy, not a nullifier person that is on 1 setting, but maybe an affliction area person. Also give him a gun that can shoot his "infected" cure all disease (the x men cure kid think the name was leech best example)
5) A zombie survivalist that is a zombie that is wanting to survive humanity, but not be apart of it or cause an out break (as needed)
6) Java-junkie the hyper active adult and speedster from kids next door that needs a coffee totem (any remotely related) & a business suit
7) Darkman avg from all of his horror/action flicks (of which there are 4 known to me), lots of str, and anger issues, perfect sound mimic, can't use touch as a sense, has a triggers for going anger hulk. However he is a scientist with fake skin that last 99 minutes. (Didn't like the breakthrough at the end of the 3rd movie)


He has a cool small truck with extra gas tank, thicker sheet metal armor, gps, and a cow catcher
Other items include a cross for healing ritualistically.
Not sure if I could use the mecha & manga book for banish as a ritual to "permanently" get rid of mutant based powers.
Other than that he is a skill & feat monkey to make him harder to hit and/or kill mostly against mutants, with a window washing day job he uses to snoop. He is also a family of low level / "ugly" mutant councillor.
currently in use at roleplaymarket.com...sort of, still waiting on approval.
10) face/off syfy show loser that gains the ability to speedily craft humans into one of their personal creations permanent. Each creation as the power of the idea behind the creation. IE: a bug would be a bug, a shadow creature would be a shadow, etc...
11) Anime Gantz bounty hunter
12) A street level Loki, probably a clone with the mecha & manga flaw of idiot of circumstantial hero via he is trying to get "ahead in life" and always has to take some hood down to do it. Then to add insult I would make him a lazy grocery bragger & stocker.
13) a more action version of the children's' show paw patrol with transforming vehicles and gizmo launching backpacks in 2e Mecha & Manga rules, with or without the headquarters, and less of the "villains" making dated pop culture references.
14) A hypnosis version Billy May Hayes with a 19.95 blaster and a silencer radius.
15) Learned that a TechnoDruid is a Mage that uses tech for green purposes, what if a TechnoDruid was someone that could make the net organic and give new meaning root.//hack
(Yes a .hack reference from anime)
16) A lower power of Danny the street a teleporting possibly male character from Doom Patrol, maybe minus the flamboyance to try a different approach. (It worked for doom patrol, I wish to imitate, not directly copy or insult)
17) a mother Mae-Eye spin off in which people eat the sweets and get to see an event maybe even interact with an event in order to see the probabilities of 1 "what if" question.
IE: robin or bats never had their respective families killed or never met?
18) Diogenes of Sinope is a man cursed to carry a magical lantern until he finds the most honest man. What happens when Diogenes finds his man and hands off the lantern? Would they become the first GLC? Would the guy have to be honest all the time? Could he lie and make it truth later?
Of note: there is no ring for this myth.
19) what if jig saw used the puzzle pieces to create timed cloned golems of those killed that could only fully live if they help jig saw collect all the people he blames for starting his rampage.
Basically replacing the corrupt cops and giving the failure 1 last shot to succeed?
A list of 18 powers that could go into a power suit "soon":
1) brain computer interface via neural interface or brain enhancements
2) human power leveled exo-suit/ skeleton with or w/o extra limbs
3) genetic engineering / synthetic bodies (used to put implants in)
4) nano mite delivery of medicine - not re growth or regen type (yet)
5) electric wall crawling via golf ball like surface and electricity
6) energy blast by focused lasers
7) magnetic shrapnel shields

9) underwater breathing / re breathing
10) bullet resist fabric
11) limited jet pack - possibly limited to lake size by use of water jet tech
12) super senses (all), includes sonar, heat, microscopic, radar vision, hearing
13) ominilingualist
14) record and respond reflexive enhancements - useful against repeating characters
15) Google / memory
16) camo-projection
17) microwave use (not sure how it's a power, but lunch will be warmer)
18) static recharging - finally a truly unlimited playlist!
Excuse the post pop & edit, but ideas don't have a good shelf life if not "written" down.
That is it for my ideas this edit, the next part is are questions:
A)?Did the cost of the main powers ever change or the course of 1-2-3ed converts?
B) How many powers are actually listed and tallied? (Best guess in number form)
C) Best minion build? With mecha - manga 2e
D) Is there a build for a baby dragon (possibly pseudo dragon)?
E) Hideout build: under a bridge in a secure sewer tunnel, not batman style?
F) Is their a thread that deals with 2e hero lab issues and how to change cost for things (ie power stunts &feats mentioned earlier) please direct me to it.
G) How to play the cartoon character / character you love in a game that doesn't fit? 0 god mode in GM's world (Serious toned game)
More later from this short time lurker long time lover of RPGs, love to hear back, etc...
Feed back, thoughts, list, budget builds are appreciated.

The creature chews right on the wall which is the right side of his current domain. A few more bites and this creature may escape. In its hand an old cell phone with a camera in it, did it take a picture of you?

Mecha - base 2pp police cruiser, neural 2pp/r, all terrain (included flight to save cost) 1pp/1r, Cargo 1pp/1r, No cover -4pp Each mecha (total of 6) was treated as separate characters due to 5pl limit Each 1 is 26pp buying off 10pp, 16pp to go...
Transforming backpacks - main gimmick each pup has to help save the day
1st based upon the utility belt (ultimate 2e) *6 with: (14pp each taken from pups' power points)
Bolos, Explosives, cut torch, power knuckles, Comm-link,Handcuffs, multi tool, re breather, megaphone, Fire extinguisher, jet pack (Special thanks to the Crinoverse Avenger Academy for a pre-made jet pack of flight 4 speed 30mph)
The pups - each are unique in their own way, but I have still to figure out how to do a generic smart puppy with the skills of repair, pilot, drive, perception, demolition, and swim (each a pup's strong suit) as the main interchangeable skills for only 16power points (pp). As it stands the mecha are already stand alone characters.
