Power list: This is a list with powers and a short description from the Ultimate Powers Book, I decided not to explain powers that speak for themselves because otherwise I could just as well copy the entire book. Any questions that remain can by e-mailed to me. E-Mail adress: vlemming@telebyte.nl The numbers behind the power catagory is the number thrown when creating a new character(1d100). (The other numbers are in another tabel, I know it's not the easiest but it saved me a lot of time.) Defensive powers: (01-05) Body Armor Force Field : Force Fields completely absorbs any attacks that have an intensity equal or less than the power rank number. The remaining Intensity breaches the field and affects anyone within with its deminished effect. Force Fields enable certain power stunts. Force Field vs.Emotion: minimum= Int+1CS Force Field vs.Energy Force Field vs.Magic Force Field vs.Mental : min=Psyche+1CS Force Field vs.Physical Force Field vs.Power Man. Force Field vs.Vampirism Reflection: The power rank of the power is substracted from the attacks intensity, (Ex power-rank vs. Rm damage results in Fe damage). The rest is reflected back. A Typical FEAT is required to reflect the attack in random direction, an AM FEAT to direct the attack -3CS back to the attacker. A Un FEAT to completely turn the attack. When the power is breached once the user has to make a green FEAT to use the power again, when breached for the 2nd time ha has to make a yellow FEAT, for each following breach he must make a red FEAT. Resistance: Same as Force Fields in effect but it affects only the user and none of the Force Fields power stunts are possible. Resist:Emotion: min=Int+1CS Resist:Energy Resist:Magic Resist:Mental: min=Psyche+1CS Resist:Physical Resist:Power Man. Resist:Vampirism Detection Powers: (06-11) Abnormal Sensitivity: The hero can hear/feel/see things he cannot normally see and vice versa. He can for instance see infrared but not normal. Circular Vision: 360 degree vision, +1CS Fighting, -1CS pop (grotesk eyes) Energy Detection Environmental Awareness: complete knowledge of surroundings Extradimensional Detection Hyper-Hearing: sonic attacks at +1CS Hyper-Olfactory: when unable to block nasty scents -1CS Reason and End Hyper-Touch Life detection: indentify presence and nature Magic Detection Microscopic vision Penetration Vision: X-Ray vision Power Detection: identify specific heroes at Un FEAT Psionic Detection Radar Sense: -1CS vs.electrical and magnetic attacks Sonar: vulnerable to sonic Telescopic vision Thermal Vision Tracking True Sight: penetrate any diguise below this rank, green for a power at +1CS up to red for +3CS Ultraviolet Vision: see clearly through fog and water Weakness detection: rank Good or below, physical weaknesses only. Ex to Am mental and physical. Mn and above, mental physical and powerbased. Energy Control powers: (12-16) Absorbtion Power: The hero can absorb a specific type of energy and convert it into health. Choose which energy type (life energy, nuclear, light etc.) Catalytic Control: Increase or decrease the speed of chemical reactions. Or the hero can for instance increase the heat generated by a process. Possible power stunts are: Increase Strength and End by increasing the metabolizing of Oxygen and Food, Hastening decay Forming Compounds by simple mixing Stopping nuclear reactions Causing impossible reactions etc. Cold Shaping: Increase or decrease cold intensity or redirect Cold powers, Cold Generation is a bonus power. Darkforce Manipulation: Generate and control the 'darkforce'. Power Stunts: Blunt attack at rank damage Shadowcasting Flight at -1cs Gateway Energy Solidification Electrical Control: as other control powers but character also gets resistance to electrical attacks. He can also remotely operate electrical devices with a Gd power FEAT, complex machinery requires a Rm FEAT. Energy Conversion: Change one form of energy into another at 1 rank lower than original. He must make a power FEAT vs. the intensity of the energy. The hero can gain energy emission (Dazzler) or convert enrgy in a less dangerous form. Heat to cold in a firestorm for instance. Energy Solidification: Form solid forms of intensity material strength. Simple solids require a Fb FEAT, animated require Ty and simple machinery requires an In FEAT. Power stunts: create cages forming servants build semi-permanent structures create body armor to protect and enhance abilities Pieces that are broken of revert to enrgy form and do -4CS damage. Energy Sponge:Absorb and store any kind of energy. Up to power rank can be stored and released at -2CS or harmlessly dissipated. The hero can absorb more energy at a red FEAT but failure results in a complete release of energy at full damage to the hero and surroundings. Energy Vampirism: Drain energy from a target and convert it into Str, End, Psy or other powers. Non-living can be drained totally at a power FEAT vs. energy intensity. Living targets have a resistance intensity equal to their Psy and only energy emission powers can be drained. Fire Control: Control existing flames, increase or decrease by power rank. The hero has power rank resistance vs. heat&fire. Gravity Manipulation: changes gravity intensity with following power stunts: changing gravity direction creating artificial gravity launching targets into space levitation at -1CS speed incapacitating a foe by increasing his weigth forming large asteroids from space debris. Hard radiation control: control X-rays, alpha, beta, gamma and cosmic rays. Kinetic Control: Increase or decrease kinetic energy. Ty intensity FEAT allows him to change the direction of any moving object or he can 'push' a target with power rank strength. He can also control a targets telekinesis or kinetic bolts power with a FEAT vs. opponents power intensity. Light Control: Control light, form crude holograms on Rm feat and gain +1CS resistance to light based attack. Magnetic Manipulation:control existing magnetic forces and shape the field in certain forms to for instance create force fields. Plasma Control: control plasma, create plasme constructs or counteract plasma powers. Radiowave Control: same as other control powers except microwave, AM or FM waves. or simulate broadcasts.

Vibration Control: increase or decrease vibrations, controling earthquakes. Richter number intensity 1 Fe,Pr 2 Ty,Gd 3 Ex,Rm 4 In,Am 5 Mn,Un 6 Sh-X,Sh-Y 7 Sh-Z,CL1000 8 CL3000, CL5000 other power stunts: distort voices cripple gyroscopes adjust vibration of his own atoms permitting him to phase Energy Emission powers: (17-24) Energy Emission powers allow a hero to do power rank damage by generating the pure forms of energy unless otherwise noted. Cold Generation: NOT ice genration, generate extreme colds (see judge book for effects) Electrical Generation Energy Doppelganger: generate an energy body from himself which can have powers and automatically has True Flight and power characteristic to the energy type. Fire Generation Hard Radiation Heat: NOT fire generation, possible power stunts causing breakdown of molecular or atomic bonds (Am and Un FEAT) Negating a target's magnetism Negating conductivity Strengthening materials changing local weather Kinetic Bolt Light Emission Magnetism Plasma Generation: also create plasma fields with 2 of the following effects Light at -2CS illumination Heat at -2CS Flame at -2CS Hard Radiation at -2CS Magnetism at -2CS Electricity at -2CS Radiowave Generation Shadowcasting: emit a field that obscures energy intensity, the following are affected at listed power rank: Light at Gd or below Heat at Ex Hard Radiation at Rm Radiowaves at In Energy doppelgangers at Am Energy Bodies at Mn Sonic Generation Vibration: power stunts vibratory shield with +2CS protection vs solid attacks Fighting powers: (25-29) Berserker: Reason and Psyche drop to Feeble while Strength and Fighting increase by the lost amount. (Example: A character with Rm Re and In Psyche loses 66 points (30-2 + 40-2 = 66) so his S and F increase by 33 points each.) The characters also gets power rank Iron will.
