The Book of Molly Hayes

Your reasoning seems correct to me, TP.

My favorite is the auto shield for every blank by the attacker but I know the Heroes won't like that so this is my second favorite. I can see a few variations on the list that you posted. They are all very good and creative.

I prefer quozl's suggestion. That says "invulnerable" the most to me. Balantai's ideas are all interesting mechanics, but they mostly all seem thematically more like probability manipulation, some sort of magical influence, etc.

Sorry I missed Quozl's, I agree that sounds like a great mechanic.

First post updated with revised wordings/mechanics.

Oh, as for the height/size, I should be getting the figure soon (shipped out earlier today), so I can check and see the exact height range.

[tcglkn]

Oh I have the figure, I can get you the height tonight when I get home.

Honestly I don't like the figure. The slab of asphalt she is holding up is huge and completely ruins the sculpt. I may have to mod it.

She must be a weak Invulnerable character if she has only 4 lives... But I guess that's for balancing purposes... I might play with her tomorrow, as I am looking to playtest some of my Marvel customs.

POWER FATIGUE
At the end of a round in which you took a turn with Molly Hayes, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll less than 6, you may not take any turns with Molly Hayes in the subsequent round. Subtract 2 from your roll for each revealed Order Marker on Molly Hayes.

It should be pointed out that though this mechanic is clever, the subtract 2 will always be factored since she is a Mutant and Professor X can continually bond with her and she will not increasingly become easier to fatigue. I think this needs to be worked out a bit more. Perhaps markers would help, as in place one on the card after taking a turn and remove them all at the start of the round.

[johnny139]

I'm REALLY hesitant to go that route, because I'm not a big fan of using extra markers all the time... but really, it might be the only option we have. Any other ideas, though?

[IAmBatman]

I think she could just be costed appropriate to how she performs with Prof X ...

[MrWookiee]

How about:

At the end of a round in which you took a turn with Molly Hayes, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll less than 6, you may not take any turns with Molly Hayes in the subsequent round. Subtract 2 from your roll for each time you attacked with Molly Hayes.

It isn't an issue of cost for me though, it is an issue of how we have a power that has a great concept but the mechanic that really helps sell the power won't even be a factor more than half time because people love Professor X armies.
