DFRPG / Help with statting a character
« on: September 13, 2013, 05:30:08 PM »
Hi there! I'm a long time lurker, first time poster, and I needed some help balancing a character concept. My GM for this campaign said he was fine with the balance, but I'm still a little hesitant (I'm usually the gm, but he's wanting to run this one.) We also have a few newbies to Fate, and I don't want to be stealing the spotlight from them.

Here's the basic incomplete character (at Submerged):
Name:Adrian Sherlock Spencer
HC: (Former) Best P.I. in SLC
Trouble:Addicted to (Name of magical drug here.)
Other: Nobody knows you when you're down and out, Just a man in a monster's world.

Skills:5: Alertness
         4: Stealth, Contacts
         3: Athletics, Endurance,

Stunts: Inspector: Use Alertness for Examination Trapping of Investigation
           

Powers (this is where I need the most help.):

Item of Power: Magical Drugs
What it is: A small bottle of pills. [+1] because easy to hide
-Human Form[+1]: It takes him some effort to take the pills.
-Feeding dependency[+1] effecting
      -Inhuman Focus [-2]: Gives +1 to Dodge(Athletics),+1 to Attacks involving focus(aiming gun, fencing, throwing knives and the like.), and +1 to Passive Awareness(Alertness), and Examination(Investigation).
      -Inhuman Recovery [-2]
      -Inhuman Tougness [-2]
                 The catch: Massive Trauma? (Unsure about this) [+3]
      -Feel No Pain [-3]

Total Refresh -7[3 Fp]


So the idea behind the pills is they highten his perceptions at lower dosages, and allow him to block out pain at higher ones, but he runs the risk of overdosing. Thus feeding dependency. The inhuman toughness and recovery are to represent an increased tolerance to pain combines with his body functioning at a higher level. But he wouldn't have total recovery, nor does it grant him actual physical armor.

I thought about trying to model this around the houseruled feeding dependency and limitation, but I got a little confused. I do like the way feeding dependency represents the struggle to use power but not too much.

Any help would be much appreciated.
