So who are people pitching for this? I'm still tinkering with an anime CAD, but I have my eye on another and I'm wondering what universes/properties we already have covered? Anyone keeping track? Lion-O, Lord of the Thundercats Aang, The Last Airbender |

Ostensibly I am. Ostensibly. WildKnight: Starscream-possessing-a-Predacon? Dhark: Lion-O or Aang (I'm leaning more towards Lion-O) Brainstem: Luigi Goats: alt-reality-good Kraven the Hunter, or another Spider-Man rogue maybe Gris: Spider-Gwen OurLadyWar: possibly Elsa Bloodstone? Dionon: Robo-freakin'-Cop lilithsboy: possibly an original character, maybe Dante from Devil May Cry? dunecat3d: good Mandarin or maybe Master Chief Black Sam: Akira Lady Belladonna: has pitched me a couple things. She pitched Nina from Breath of Fire II, but we're still trying to make a CAD that works for both of us for that. I think as of last PM, we're talking about some alternative options. I think that's everyone. If I forgot you, I apologize! |

The 'minion' thing is more a way to represent some UNSC guys running around in pelicans doing secondary tasks/performing the odd supply drop. The Arsenal Mod might be a interesting option. Now I just need to find it..

Okay, but even with the wildly reduced cost, I'm still paying a tremendous amount for a change that is purely cosmetic. I'm playing +1 CL (which can be extremely costly in some instances), to EVERY SINGLE ASPECT OF MY CAD, for the privilege of being able to look like a robot sometimes and a robot drone other times? |

I can't find it to link here, but there's a custom rule called Power Up that gets the job done.
What is it that you're trying to do, exactly?

No, the +01CL is ONLY to actions/modifiers that you're linking- and it becomes "free" on the "weaker" form |

WildKnight If both forms do all the same things, then Transform Self is an utter waste. It really only benefits if each form has distinct abilities with SOME overlap. Just make a single character with Shapeshift, discount for a single alternate shape. Any action that cannot be used by one shape or the other gets a -01CL for not being used in conjunction with XXX Shape.

A reflavored Metamorphosis with maybe -3 to cost level ("alternate form only") to reflect turning into a jet/what have you? |

^^Why though? Starscream can fly in both shapes IIRC, and could carry a passenger in either. So... Really the only thing you're getting is Close Combat as a robot and a disguise as a jet.... Right?

Its not even a jet. To reduce his size I'm putting him in another body, so I'm making him either a Pterosaur or a Condor, so even CC crosses over. There is no statistical difference between his two forms. |

Then yeah... Just toss on Shapeshifting, discount for one shape would be my advice :-p
