• Posted Porter's Crew to Project Roundtable
  James Telford Porter is better known as the Vanisher. That's to anyone who knows him. Most people don't. A low-level supervillain, the Vanisher has knocked around a couple of places but never found his higher calling. Well, that calling has...
• Commented on Green Hornet
  I actually love that take and think it helps keep Britt Reid from being a bit of a cardboard cutout, which my original Zapp Brannigan take might've made him into. But I do think you need to keep with Kato...
• Posted Project: Prometheus to Project Roundtable
  A secret government program to create an army of super-soldiers goes awry when one of the test subjects, KAT, finds out what's going on and decides to escape.(written 2003)...
• Commented on Green Hornet
  I think one of the biggest flaws whenever anyone tries to tackle the Green Hornet is a failure to give enough appreciation to Kato. Britt Reid brings little more than money and flair to his crimefighting, leaving Kato to do...
• Posted Green Hornet to Project Roundtable
• Posted Landau, Luckman, and Lake to Profiles
  How can you take a group of people seriously who were introduced as an interdimensional banking firm? Easy. LL&L is a vast organization that appears to have a concern with policing the dimensions and time stream- no, not policing-guiding.The influence...
• Posted Are abilities and attributes really out of five? to Forums

• Posted Weight-Shifting to Powers
  A truly unusual power, closely related to Mass-Shifting. The super cannot change her overall mass (nor shift down to intangibility, except at the higher levels), but she can actually shift around her 'center' of mass, effectively concentrating her mass in...
• Posted Water Breathing to Powers
  Your super can breathe underwater as well as on land. She may have gills, or some other mechanism for extracting the oxygen from water- it doesn't matter. Anywhere fish can go, you can go. Namor has this ability. No roll...
• Posted Wallcrawling to Powers
  This is the ability to climb sheer surfaces without trouble or penalty. While Adhesion gives this ability incidentally, this actually implies something about the nature of the super's hands and feet. Both the Nightcrawler and the Beast have this power....
• Posted Vision of Decay to Powers
  Unlike many Altered Perceptions, Vision of Decay is not an ability that can be turned on and off at will. Many who have had this power might wish that it could. Like Raistlin Majere of the Dragonlance novels, your super...
• Posted Vibration Control to Powers
  The super has the ability to amplify or deaden the vibration waves that exist in all media with deadly results. The Shocker has this power, though when it comes to its application he is an idiot. A solid medium will...
• Posted Vibration Channeling to Powers
  The super can channel destructive vibrations by touch, either through a conductive medium (such as water, a weapon, or the ground) or directly into a person's body. This delivers two Health Levels of damage per Rank in this power, which...
• Posted Vibration Blast to Powers
  As with the Shocker, the super can create catastrophic vibration in solid, liquid, and gas in a tightly-focused beam. It generally does precious little damage to gases (though it can disperse them or drag them along with the beam), but...
• Posted Vertigo to Powers
  The ability to mess with another character's sense of balance is not one to be trifled with. Vertigo of the Marauders has this power. The effects can range from light disorientation to uncontrollable vomiting. This power requires concentration and a...
• Posted Vampiric Feedback to Powers
  A super who has this power will not be drained of her reserves, period. Psychic Vampires and even normal vampires must be wary of someone who has this power, for she can turn the tables on them using their own...
• Posted Vacuum Manipulation to Powers
  This is an extremely bizarre power. The super can create vacuums in inorganic matter and hold them with concentration for as long as he desires, and then 'let go', which usually creates a sucking effect. This has a number of...
