Echoes of the Multiverse

Except that Concealment is not just stealth. No amount of stealth will allow you to stand right in front of someone and have them not see you. Safe Fall is not just acrobatics. No amount of acrobatics will allow you to fall from a flying plane and survive. But putting an object on, or removing it f...

Sounds like the Sleight of Hand Skill to me… And concealment is just stealth, safe fall is just acrobatics, Morph is just Deception, Leaping and Speed is just Athletics, Mind Reading is just really high insight, etc. That counter doesn't really hold a lot of weight when not only are many powers som...

honestly I wish there was tactile immunity for people who can do things like pickpocket you, place something on you, or otherwise do some benign interaction you won't notice without actually seeing the after effects. Like a limited Insidious modifier. Like BatgirlIII says, I would go with Limited I...

Affliction makes for a much more efficient to play smoke bomb than a Concealment Attack: Smoke Bomb Affliction X ( Resist: Awareness; Recover: Awareness; Conditions: Impaired, Disabled, Unaware; E: Area [Cloud], Cumulative; Flaw: Instant Recovery, Limited to Visual Senses) [ 1 PP per Rank ] Ehhh. I...

But that's not insubstantial, insubstantial is going through objects. Nothing in insubstantial actually says you can't feel them either.

I think this is a power that is too expensive at low levels, but too cheap at high ones -- being able to communicate with everyone in the universe should probably cost more than 25 points. Sure that sounds impressive but realistically how often would that actually be useful in a game or story? At t...

I like to be creative with Dimensional Travel to give it more use. One of my favorite is "TinyVerse" as a pseudo dimension where people are doing the whole "Fantastic Voyage" thing. It's remarkably common in fiction strangely enough, especially in video games. One instance that a...

Isn't Environmental Adaption just Sure Footed but limited? Seriously, I think the only thing this really covers is penalties to speed because everything else is probably handled by Immunity. Remember, if it's terrestrial Sure Footed or Trackless basically does everything this does because this power...

Looks like you remember correctly. Both descriptions are pretty short relative to the other Advantages/Movement Effects on the same respective page, but the upshot is Slithering takes away the Hindered condition of Prone, Prone Fighting takes away the attack bonus of adjacent close attackers, and b...

Hindered is just a mediocre condition anyway, seriously counteracting it is as simple as a 1pp power. Technically a limited version of that power since it'd be Speed limited to while prone. Take Prone Fighting and a rank of speed and you outdo Slithering movement quite a bit for the same price. Hec...

MOVEMENT- SLITHERING: [/size] ... How Effective Is It?: [/u] It's twice as expensive as Prone Fighting, but it's basically Prone Fighting + Feature- Can Move While Prone. So like... it's fine. Just saves typing. Iirc Prone fighting actually has more benefits, in that it removes the bonus to being h...

MOVEMENT- SLITHERING: [/size] Effect: [/u] One of the oddest powers, it's effectively just "you can move while prone on the ground", which means that being tripped doesn't harm your movement. And also suffer no circumstance penalty for attacking while prone. Essentially, this power is &qu...

Trackless really should have been a function of Concealment, probably as some form of extra.
