Character Generation
All characters will be randomly generated.
All die rolls must be made on the RPOL dice roller.
Here are the steps:
Step One: Roll primary attributes: Strength, Endurance, Intelligence, Agility, Charisma.
One note for players of other games. Charisma in V&V has little to do with good looks or charm. It is a stat that reflects how much like your side (good/bad) your character acts. It also reflect public reputation, but that does not apply so much to low-level heroes. So, for instance, Superman has a very high charisma. Batman and Wolverine are much lower.
To determine these stats, roll 4d6 dropping the lowest die five times. Then assign them as you would like.
Step Two: Roll weight.
Men roll 5d6 x 10. Women roll 5d4 x 10.
Height is up to you.
Step Three: Roll powers.
This is a little complicated because it involves rolling to table you cannot see if you don't own the rules.
First, roll 1d6+2 (reroll ones). This is how many powers you get.
Then, for each power roll d100 on one of the following tables:
Powers
Super Devices
Magic/Psionic Devices
Magic/Psionics
Skills (basically physical and mental training, but with a few other things, too.)
You then must also roll d100 once for a Weakness.
After you find out what your powers and weakness are, you do two things.
1) Drop any one power.
2) Drop one more power if you want to remove the weakness.
Post a message in the Character Creation thread that summarizes all the rolls (including which tables they were rolled on) and decisions made during power generation.
If you do not have the rule book, let me know and I'll tell you what the rolls correspond to.
Step 4: Secondary Characteristics
Calculate the character's secondary characteristics (HP, Power, Carrying Capacity, Movement, etc.). If you have the rulebook, you can do this yourselves. Otherwise, I'll do it for you.
Hit Point Modifiers: The hit point modifiers for Strength and Agility are swapped.
Accuracy: The accuracy modifier is now divided into Physical Accuracy, which affects melee and energy attacks, and Mental Accuracy, which affects mental attacks such as Emotion Control, Mind Control, Telekinesis, etc.
Physical Accuracy is based upon Agility and is determined per the standard rulebook. Mental Accuracy is based upon Intelligence, and is determined by comparing the character's Intelligence score with the accuracy modifier column under Agility on p. 7 of the rulebook.
