Good backstory! The powers and skills looked fine, no complaints there. Just as a reminder though, I'm staying away from the color system and will be using instead this for all percentile rolls:

Black = 100 or 1-19
Red = 20-59
Blue = 60-89
Yellow = 90-99

Alright, I have no complaints there. I made the backstory in about 5 minutes during lunch today so I'm glad you like it :D
I rushed it a lot so it skips through time which I don't really like.

To everyone, I'm almost done getting the campaign officially started. Because the third plot has been chosen I will be working out a few scenarios in which your supers meet each other, naturally. I greatly dislike when things are forced, so I want these encounters to be the real deal. Some of you even might solo for a bit until the group comes together for a common goal, just as a forewarning.

With three professors established, it seems like they might all be involved in some sort of think-tank type of Institute, focused on uncovering pre- and post-Portal phenomenon. It might be at least partially funded by a grant from the government of Arendel. And it probably has an aggressively boring name.

Professors Cortez and Felden are perhaps both on the hard science side, each with their side engineering projects (Flicker and SCAMP). Perryton is on the investigative research end, going out there and collecting evidence. He has probably, in all innocence and honesty, never occurred to him to mention or demonstrate to anyone at the Institute that he has superpowers. Because that's obviously not as important as his publication history.

As a Ph.D. student, I had to laugh at this.

"Yes, yes, Professor Perryton. The tenure committee is aware that you can move objects with the power of your thoughts and make birds do your bidding. And we appreciate that you have saved the world a few times, although these were mere practical applications of previous work, not fundamental theoretical contributions to the field. But we are concerned that too many of your publications are not in top tier journals..."

I'm ready to start when you guys are. A thread has been set up for each of your characters, some sharing one with another. This may seem obvious, but try not to look at everyone else's threads if you can help it.

While I am in the shout out mood I wanna just rant and rave to Rukellian, I am liking the story so far and I love how you threw in our back stories with the overall narration to start off, may be old news to everyone else but I'm new so I'm kind of pumped for it :lol:

I haven't looked at anyone else's starts but I'm sure they're just as fun :D

Now there is an idea. I'm sure that the sheer cold generated from one of Permafrost's abilities could have forced the person in question out of hiding... just saying ;)

I'm going to be returning to work tomorrow morning, saturday. The day will be busy, and I won't be able to respond until 8 PM E.S.T. Not sure how my work schedule will be looking, but I will try to stay on top of these posts.
