[Supers, Powers] Walk on Air (Cannot Move) and Immunity to Knockback

[Dragyn]

Hi there.

I have a player with the concept of being able to control his position in space in several ways. He's a Teleporter, among other things, and wants to have these abilities.

1> Walk on Air-
What is the value on a limitation that lets him stay at his current position in mid-air, but not actually move (in order to move, he would have to teleport, or switch off this power and fall). This basically allows him to teleport to a static point in mid-air, or saves him from falling in the event of a) a mis-teleport, or b) finding himself suddenly in mid-air for some other reason (a trap, thrown off a roof, etc)

2> value for Immunity to knockback?


Any ideas?

2> IIRC Immunity (Knockback) counts as Common. Check out Supers.

1> You can try taking Flight and then reducing Flying Move to 1 or even 0.

1) Temporary Disadvantage, Basic Move -5, -25% (or whatever your Basic Move is).

Temporary Disadvantage, Sessile or Portable are also options but you wouldn't even be able to kick.

I can't seem to find it in Supers or Powers, but I'll go with it.

Excellent suggestion, thanks.

However you do it, remember that Flight Move=2xBasic Speed. I've had plenty of players either forget the 2x or that's it's Speed not Move.

Knockback isn't one of the classes of effects you can buy immunity to, since it doesn't have resistance roll.

PK has a nice house rule, which may be the same as in Supers.

Based it on Walk on Air instead.
