Second Nature Question

Post by WaylanderPK »

Super Speed states that you cant heal in a page when you use it. Is it appropriate to buy this off with Second Nature?

I seem to recall reading that it was ok in the forum somewhere, but I could have been delusional (happens all the time :) )

I don't find it * for healing. I picture an active healing power as something that takes some time.

We have a houserule for a Regeneration Power. It is a biomanipulation power, sustained. A character with the power regenerates Lvl/hitpoints per round. You can buy the enhancement Regrow which allos to regennerate lost limbs. This power thus takes no actions.

That's a pretty cool house rule. Even at level 5 the charcter is only healing 5 Hits each page. The character would be entirely back to full Hits in a few minutes (or by the next scene, for sure) but that isn't any different from Healing 5.

Your regen power would be a more perfect fit for a Wolverine type healer than the normal Healing power. It's not like Logan has to stop and think about using it - it just happens.

Actually one of the new Enhancements I was considering for Awesome Powers was a "Regeneration" enhancement that allows you to automatically recover your Level # of Hits per page.

Well, the first installment will be an Elemental themed pack of Power Suites that will include a few new things as well. It will be the four classic elements, but also include Ice, and various other "para-elemental" powers.

Cool! It kinda sounds as though you'll be breaking Ultimate Powers into a few smaller dpf mini-books. That sounds like a pretty neat idea. It would make the chore of writting the whole book a little a little easier; just focus on one segment /power suit at a time. If you're going this route though, it would be neat if the material could be bundled into a printed book (with a bit of added content and/or more supporting art).

That is the plan; to eventually make the whole thing a printed book.
