Teleportation

[DeaconAbyss]

Say I buy 5pts of teleport...can I make it Variable. Like to be able to say shift it about, making a 2x2 burst usable on others.

1 for area, 1 for 2x2 burst and 1 for usable on others allowing me 2pts of actual teleport effect or some variations of simular nature.

Also if i took clairvoyance 1/present. could I use that to TP to places I cant normally see. also on the subject of clairvoyance. If i took telepathy 3 could i use telepathy with people i can see clairvoyantly?

EXAMPLE:
Brawn: 1 Agility: 2 Mind: 5 COST: 16pts

Powers
Telepathy3: 3pts
Clairvoyance/Present: 1pt
Danger Sense: 2pts
Teleportation5/Variable Enhancment: 5pts
Telekinesis5: 5pts
Attack Weak Point: 2pts
Disarm Expert: 2pts
Double Taps: 1pt
COST: 21pts
TOTAL: 37pts

I am sure I could work up some multipower action to reduce cost. I just wanted to put this up as a rough draft and to ask if anyone sees a problem.

Well be default, Teleport doesn't require you to be able to see the place. That is a possible limitation you could place on it, though.

Strictly by the rules as written, there is no mention of using Variable to apply enhancements. It only explicitly allows you to shift points between levels in the power plus range and area. So you might need to buy Teleport X, Variable, Area, Usable on Others, costing X+3 pts. Then you could re-arrange the X between levels of Teleport and Area. If you wanted the option to be able to use it at range too, then you'd need Teleport X, Variable, Area, Range, Usable on Others, costing X+4 pts, which would let you freely move levels of Teleport into range and/or area.

Bashman would have to clarify if Variable would let you sacrifice an extra level of the power to get the Area or Range enhancements too, in addition to buying actual amounts of area/range.

Personally, in my game, I might consider allowing Variable to "buy" the Area or Range enhancements too, but I'd definitely make the character take Usable on Others as a normal enhancement. So I'd at least consider allowing something like Teleport X, Variable, Usable on Others for X+2 pts. And they could sacrifice 2 levels of Teleport to add the Area enhancement and buy a small burst.

You may also want to consider a Multipower w/ Teleport & Gateway. Add the Variable enhancement to the Gateway, since it by default already affects an area and also is usable on others (anyone can walk through it). You would still need to add the Ranged enhancement, though.

Thanks and I am working on the multipower now.
