Sanctaphrax:
@Belial: I regard that as a typo.

@Silverblaze: You're right, the thread has drifted. But I don't intend to change the name right now.

@zaczane: Still waiting for an explanation of Mother Sleet's new powers.

@ways and means: Good stuff. I like the new version better, and No Matter The Strength is pretty cool.  The Elder Dragon is also pretty interesting. Got a few questions about him:

1. He lacks Toughness beyond his Physical Immunity. I'd like to hear the reasoning behind that.
2. Why no Hulking Size, Claws, or Breath Weapon?
3. This guy's actually pretty slow and very unskilled at physical combat. Once again, I'd like to hear the reason.
4. What inspired this guy? He doesn't seem like a stereotypical dragon, so I figure you had some kind of model for him.

Also, I feel as though I ought to point out a few minor errors:

1. Human Form and The Sight cost +1 and -1 respectively. You may also want to specify what Human Form applies to.
2. Refresh Total should be -1.
3. He's got 2 spare Focus Slots.
4. He's got 5 spare skill points.

Silverblaze:

The Catch + 3 ( his raven is harmed )

Cloak of Shadows-1
Supernatural Senses -2 Can track those he came back to kill; can see  through his ravens eyes
Ritual - 2 Biomancy (centralizing on healing) (can only be used to help people who he had connection to (hoever tenuous) in life)

+? most powers are contingent on bird being healthy, incite emotion only usable against those who The Crow returned to kill

Not sure what power level to set him at

zaczane:
about the underbelly as the catch to toughness, i think thats a pretty well known spot to hit a dragon so +2 there.
second any body can hit it so its obviously common, but its not very specific so overall i'd give it a +4 for its catch

also you have fists at superb and average so i'd switch one with weapons, my opinion would be the superb one cause of breath weapon and claws are rolled by weapons.

jadecourtflunky:
Claws are rolled by fists. There are stunts to switch breath weapon to fists, but none to make claws a weapons skill.

Katarn:
For all you Metroid fans... this is far from complete, just a quick write-up looking for some feedback.
