New thread and new rules.
You'll all be getting 5 more points to spend shortly. Start thinking about how you want to spend them. (The school year is accelerating because the players are coming close to figuring out the whole plot. Talk amongst yourselves on that.)
Hero Points are changing. You still get 4. However, combat use of Hero Points now cost double (2 Hero Points instead of 1). Non-combat uses remain at 1. Hero Points are being too decisive in battle, but I want to let you guys keep the options of pulling out that Awesome Stick if you really need it. I also want to encourage the use of Hero Points more outside of combat, so I'm hoping this will do that.
IC thread is sitting in another tab waiting for me to finish writing it. Expect it today.

How many points does it cost to become fluent in a foreign language?

So I can learn four languages with one point? Would I need appropriate justification for this or can I just buy them because I'm a hero now and I'm badass enough to capable of it?

Justify it.
Languages are skills, and cost the same as any skill. You could, conceivably, learn a language and add three ranks to another skill for that same point.

Adam's mentioned before that he's been studying Japanese. Maybe he's now proficient enough to speak it? And maybe put the remaining 3/4 points in Intimidation.

Hoverboards brought to you by my own short attention span drifting to the cover of my ThinkGeek catalog.

The best part about having Super Speed is that I don't need to pay attention to where anything is. I can just be there!

Contrary to popular belief, "Zerg rush kekekekeke ^_^" is not an example of the Korean language.

Incidentally, 9/11 happened, and it happened exactly as it did in our universe. In 2001, Fortress was the pre-pubescent son of the Commander and Jetstream, who were both in LA when the attacks occurred and probably couldn't have stopped them anyway. Any super capable of flight wouldn't be strong enough to stop a jet, and any super that could stop a jet wouldn't be capable of flight.

Not sure what the teleportation range is in this game, but based on what I know of the system, I'm making an assumption that being able to teleport an entire campus a thousand or so miles counts as "pretty much Godlike." Feel free to correct me, FB.

I'm not sure where Greg got the idea that no one was talking about Fortress and Suzako from. They are the root of the "super-powered insurrection" theories.
