RosenMcStern Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) Allow me a little divertissement. Nothing official, just to show how it could be done. The X-Men For Revolution D100 The X-Men are a Trademark of Marvel. The version of the X-men provided here is inspired by the Claremont&Byrne stories of the 80s. Cyclops Scott Summers STR 14 | CON 18 | DEX 16 | INT 15 | WIL 16 | CHA 15 Toughness 9, Might +1, Strike Rank 15, Exertion Points 38, Move 5 Attacks: Punch 70%, SR 15, 3/2 to Att/Def, Damage 1d2+1d2 Beam 108%, SR 36, 5/- to Att/Def, Damage 10d4, Range C (25), bash (effect), stun (effect) Skills: Athletics [Balance, Climb, Dodge, Swim, Take Cover] 74%, Close Combat [Martial Arts (Deflect, Evade)] 70%, Communication [Language: English, Command] 68%, Concentration [Willpower] 61%, Drive [Car, Motorcycle] 61%, Knowledge [Literacy] 60%, Operate [Electronics] 61%, Perception [Hearing, Vision] 61%, Pilot [Aircraft] 61%, Ranged Combat [Beam (Bash, Marksmanship, Intercept Projectiles, Fast Reaction, Stun)] 78%, Survival [First Aid, Endurance] 63%.

Storm’s weather control powers can be emulated by applying extended activation rules to her Project powers.

Wolverine will not go into Animal Rage voluntarily as this may make him dangerous to his allies, too. Phoenix Jean Grey STR 11 | CON 16| DEX 13 | INT 20 | WIL 23 | CHA 17 Toughness 7, Might -, Strike Rank 12, Exertion Points 39, Move 5 Attacks: Punch 64%, SR 12, 3/2 to Att/Def, Damage 1d2 Kick 64%, SR 14, 5/- to Att/Def, Damage 2d2 TK Bolt 113%, SR 20, 5/- to Att/Def, Damage 9d2, Range Close (25), stun (auto) Skills: Agility [Balance, Dodge, Swim, Take Cover] 69%, Close Combat [Martial Arts (Evade, Kick)] 64%, Communication [Language: English, Insight] 77%, Concentration [Might, Range, Targets, Telekinesis (Levitation, Project Kinetic), Telepathy (Dominate), Willpower] 113%, Drive [Car] 63%, Knowledge [Literacy, Medicine] 70%, Operate [Electronics] 63%, Perception [Hearing, Vision] 73%, Pilot [Aircraft] 63%, Survival [First Aid, Endurance] 66%.

Notes: this is the real Jean Grey, not the one possessed by the Phoenix Force. She lacks the Overcome Stunt, so her Dominate power suffers one Penalty. Professor X Charles Xavier STR 8 | CON 16| DEX 13 | INT 23 | WIL 22 | CHA 15 Toughness 7, Might -, Strike Rank 11, Exertion Points 38, Move - Attacks: Punch 51%, SR 11, 3/2 to Att/Def, Damage 1d2 Skills: Agility [Throw] 59%, Close Combat [Brawl] 51%, Communication [Language: English/German/Hebrew/Russian, Insight, Persuade, Status: Renowned Scientist, Teach] 78%, Concentration [Range, Overcome, Might, Targets, Sensitivity (Location), Telepathy (Dominate), Willpower] 115%, Craft [Electronics, Surgery] 66%, Drive [Car] 76%, Knowledge [Biomedicine (Genetics, Mutations, Neurology, Psychology), Literacy: Latin/Cyrillic/Hebrew, Physics, Psionics] 106%, Perception [Hearing, Vision] 75%, Survival [First Aid, Endurance] 69%.

Zit Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 How do you manage these super powers ? Some of them are in the Powers list but not to be found under any Skill. Ex. Cyclope. Prohect energy 10. Is that the same as the Beam in Ranged Combat ? Or for Storm: 2 hours ago, RosenMcStern said: Concentration [Absorb Cold, Project Lightning, Project Cold, Project Kinetic, Willpower] does not comply to : 2 hours ago, RosenMcStern said: Powers: Flight 10, Project Electricity 10 (is that the lightning ?), Project Kinetic 6 (no damage, knockback only), Project Cold 4, Absorb Electricity 10, Absorb Cold 5. I'm a bit confused. Quote Wind on the Steppes, role playing among the steppe Nomads. The running campaign and the blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RosenMcStern Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 Corrected. Everything is marked as "lightning" now, and I have clarified that Storm's powers require activation, except Flight and Absorb Lightning (and in fact, depending on how you interpret the comics/movies, even these two might require activation). Basically, Storm's powers work like the equivalent spells/psionic powers, requiring a Concentration roll to fire a blast of energy or to envelop her in a protective field against that energy source. The difference with spells is that Range and Might are fixed and not depending on Channeling. Phoenix and Xavier use simple psionics, as in the rules. They have a Channeling score depending on their skill and use it to determine how hard and how far they can strike. In theory, Phoenix can strike farther, or fire at multiple targets, by doing less damage. Cyclops' beam is a Project Kinetic variant that does D4s. The stunt, as explained in the notes, allows him to fire the beam as a ranged weapon and not as a power. It works exactly like a laser beam except that it uses two of his Exertion Points instead of energy from a clip. His brother Havok fires a different type of discharges which would probably be treated like Storm's bolts, should we wish to define his character, too.

seneschal Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Fun write-ups. And the powers and motivations blocks indicate how this system differs from the Big Gold Book. My favorite X-man was Beast, at least the animated version. In the comics he kept changing, depending who was writing. Was he shy and lovelorn? Brainy and pedantic? Or a savage animal eager to rend and slay? Was he just mishappen or furry? Wait! Did his fur color and coat length just change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
