use a larger Radius to make Gates for bigger people.
Q: How many people can use a Gate at once?
A: A Gate has to be bought with some form of Usable On Others -- either Usable By Other or
Usable Simultaneously (most often the latter). The value of the Advantage defines how many
people can use the Gate at once; it’s certainly possible (though rare) for someone to make a Gate
that thousands of people could go through at a time (though that would require the Gate to be
pretty large and to be able to handle a lot of Increased Mass).
Q: Does the mass restriction on a Gate apply per person/object going through the Gate, or
overall per Segment?
A: The mass for a Gate defines the mass of any given person or object that can move through the
Gate. It’s not a per-Segment restriction, it’s a per-person (or object) restriction.
Q: If a character is using Noncombat Teleportation and is Stunned or Knocked Out before his
extra Phase occurs, does he still Teleport when the Phase occurs?
A: No.
Page 303 — Transform
Q: Can Transform have the Costs Endurance (to maintain) Limitation?
A: Yes. If the character stops paying END, the Transform effect stops working in total at the end
of that Segment and the victim un-Transforms back into whatever shape/function he had before
he was Transformed. Paying an END maintenance cost does not in any way increase the
effectiveness of, or improve, a Transform power, nor allow it to keep working beyond the point
at which the “heals back” condition is satisfied.
Page 309 — Tunneling
Q: Does Tunneling do BODY damage to objects? For example, if a character Tunnels through
walls in a building, can the building take enough damage that it falls down?
A: For game purposes, Tunneling does no BODY damage to substances or objects Tunneled
through, unless and until the GM wants to invoke common or dramatic sense. It’s a Movement
Power, not an attack, and shouldn’t be used as an attack.
