Ok so my real life marvel group has decided to use the marvel system to start a new game using the marvel rules to a game that is going to be a Supernatural game, like the television show. I know there is a Supernatural game out there but we like the marvel system better then the system used for it.
So, being the gm, I was hoping to create a few interesting characters, one of them being Angelous Vita or the Angel of Life. Since I know there are a lot of experienced character builders on this site, I was hoping to get some input on how to create her. She has a mastery over life, being able to create and manipulate it whenever she wants (of course unlimited) but creating things out of nothing does weaken her for a bit. By this I mean, depending on the number of things she creates, she can't do anything from a day to a week or longer after the creating. She has most of the other abilities that angels on the show have including teleport anywhere, telepathy, ability to take a human host (possession) but only if the person gives her permission to and she can only be killed via an archangel's blade. I know she is going to be expensive given her mastery but she is meant to be a powerful character that pops her head in every now and again like the trickster from the series.
Now, as Death has Reapers, Life has Keepers. These are beings that are given a form that is very capable of defending or taking down things. I'm kind of picturing these as being a little like the Hell-hounds of the series, they can't be seen unless the one seeing them is an otherworldly creature (demon, angel, the dying etc.) but they can be given a human form if their mission requires it.
So what do you guys think? How would you build these two things? I'm also a little interested to hear what you guys would personally think of a game like this since this is one of the ideas that was running through my head for a game on here. Do you think it can be reasonably done or should we suck it up and use the Supernatural rules?
