Aspects and Phase trio

Super heroes get 2 high concepts, one for your characters super hero identity and one for your mundane. For heroes who have publicly known identities this still applies because marvel example, Reed Richards - Man of Science and Mr Fantastic - Man of Elastic are both (not perfect) High Concepts for him even though his super and mundane identity are not really separated. Only changes I'm debating is adding a extra phase to the phase trio (making it a phase quartet) called Origin before the other phases as for many heroes their origin says a lot about them and defines their relationship with the setting and characters. The second is to not treat each phase as a step in a single adventure but for each to be it's own adventure or "comic issue".

Powers To keep them simple and easy powers will be treated as a skill (ideally one that allows for the Attack, Defence, Overcome and Create an Advantage actions but not required) that goes into you skill pyramid and an aspect that defines it. The powers should be as broadly defined as a regular skill and the assumption is that the average hero will have 2-4 power skills. Overly broad power sets like magic should be broken up into sub-components (or arcane) and those treated as the skills. Gadgetry and other building powers will give a pool of temporary item slots which are mechanical aspects defining what the item does and rolls based on creation skill but more permanent items should be their own powers. Finally some powers might be best emulated by a super powered version of a normal skill (example: Peak Human Condition would be a super powered version of the physique skill) in which case you take the skill twice once as the super powered version and once as the mundane identity, de-powered version, or if honest skill tax.

Note because powers are skill it is possible to take stunts based on them.

Skill list and skill pyramid While I know skills levels are relative to the setting because the skill list is expanded and powers are treated as skills I am raising the skill cap of the pyramid to superb.

First draft of skill list, with only new skills explained, debating splitting fighting into brawl and weaponry plus splitting acrobatics out of athletics (or just renaming athletics to acrobatics and placing the more strength and endurance traits into physique) but not sure.

Athletics Burglary Contacts Crafts Deceive Drive Empathy Fight Investigate Notice Physique Provoke Rapport Resources Shoot Stealth Will

Added skills based on lore so by default allow Overcome and Create an Advantage actions Science:- knowledge of the mundane and super sciences Medicine:- knowledge of the first aid and other modern medical knowledge Academics:- General knowledge skill of most other non common knowledge subjects Occult:- Knowledge of the mystical and magical Exotica:- knowledge if the weird, wonderful and hard to categorise.

Refresh and Stunts Least sure about but seeing as the srd suggest to raise stunts if you want a lot of cool trick (which I do) and refresh to make things more animated, I'm thing of raising number of free stunts to 4 and keeping refresh to 3.
