I've been through a few drafts.  I always forget how HERO works, then I forget how you build HERO characters, then I make something too complicated, and then I have to start all over with something cleaner.

Anyway, I'm pretty far on the back end (I hope) of the curve.

If anyone uses Hero Designer, I've been hacking away at a template that works with RPOL a bit better than most of the default ones.

I built a template for RPOL, focused on v6 with a basic output. I used it to spit out that which is currently in my character's description.

I had a 6e version for another game that I am enjoying, and am working on a  onversion. It'll be a few days at most.

I couldn't sleep so I went ahead and tweaked my template to use easy tables.  A sample and the .hde code are in my description for the moment.  I'll probably do yet another version with dice code in it for Characteristic rolls.  But not tonight.

Feel for you.

I've been making a serious effort to work with 'simple' builds.  The concept can be as complex as you want but really it makes life all around easier to have a simple complex.

350 is a huge sum of points.  You really shouldnt feel the urge to min max with such a large budget.

I've actually been rethinking and going back to working on a new build and working something out with the game master.

Any ways... i just realized time might be a little short for me today, so i might have to rethink how much time i have to do this character sheet today.

Somehow I skipped them.  Sorry and fixed

"Simple" rarely works for me with my outre concepts. Not having multipower or elemental control complicates things in this case (my single stop sign mechanic for this character is an adder), so I'm scaling back the larger powers as much as I can so I can fit things in.

I think the only 'officially' questionable power that 'i' have control over is the 8pt Transform, which was bought because that was the only option for 'Instant Change' which they got rid of in this edition.

Barbie is falls into the 'tankish' template.  She's not quite as durable as a 'FULL' tank, but falls closest to that archetype.

Non-tankish attributes fall inline along the lines of being pretty quick and actually being a very social 'people person'.  Have most.. of a character sheet done, just trying to negotiate some stuff that concerns the game master.

Yup, Barbie, Madam Eventide,  and Sharpshooter are approved

I should have mine up later tonight.

In reply to Charge (msg # 26):

Flicker has been approved

What a doll!

Well my character certainly won't mind at all. She's in the same boat, being that she looks like a humanoid bat woman all the time. :) I should have a first draft of a character sheet (subject to edit by suggestion) by tomorrow at the latest.

From the descriptions we have an interesting mix.

Well... Barbie is pretty well known, but i didn't pick up Public Identity cause i wanted to leave room for her to have a private life.

I'm going to presume we all meet at Stronghold eventually, this should be fun.

I went with the classic scientist/speedster, but I can see others were more creative in their... creating.

Sharpshooter, while not a household name, would be mentioned in a few History books.

Everyone's heard of Barbie dolls...

I suppose you can think of me as the life sized action figure version?

I could imagine some villain trying to clone Barbie and getting this instead, a la https://shezow.fandom.com/wiki/SheZap_(character)

In reply to Quozaxx (msg # 35):

heh.

Yes, one of her catch phrases leaping into battle is, "It's a Barbie World!"

or

"We can do anything!"

Mad Al is awesome.

That would be an awesome theme song for an anti-Barbie nemesis.

In reply to Barbie (msg # 38):

So yeah I am going to be working up my sheet since we just got added. And yeah that's his Codename. Redacted sounds better than R.E.D.

Also are we just random Supers or a member of a group(Justice League or PRIMUS)?
