Sanctaphrax:
What polka said.
I do a lot of character-making, and like most things making characters is more fun when one isn't doing it alone.
Just two nitpicks:
1. Omega Sanction seems overpriced. It's useful, but I don't think it's 4 refresh of useful.
2. Is Domain the same as Demesne?

--- Quote from: Belial666 on September 08, 2011, 04:27:56 PM ---It should be noted that while I gave Darkseid 62 refresh in powers and Superman only 41, they both have a refresh level of 42 and their offensive skills are at similar levels. Darkseid always wins in his initial fights with Superman, after all. However, Kal-El racks up lots of fate points over the course of such stories so when it's the time to face Darkseid again, he has 20-something of them (comics stories have a crapload of complications), making up the refresh difference long enough to narrowly beat him.
Also, Superman is powerful enough to never use Fate Points with lesser opponents in his stories or risk killing them. When the time comes to face huge threats, he gives the World-Of-Cardboard speech and then he does use the crapload of FPs he's gathered to "unleash his full power".
As for Batman, is anyone surprised that he did have a bullet satisfying Darkseid's catch? ::)

Fair enough.
As for batman. He is the godammed batman afterall. Who else could/would have had the catch. A good read explaining how batman always has the catch on hand is the story JLA: Tower of Babel. Seriously, everyone read this.
Belial666:
1) Omega Sanction is fairly useful. Not only it can be used offensively to cause effects other than damage but it also has utility. I.e. Darkseid uses it on some minion he wants to teleport where it would be useful rather than kill an enemy - even target himself, not bother rolling defense, and not take consequences so he is "taken out" and teleported where he wants to go. So I priced as -1 refresh for extra effect type (as per the "extra emotion" upgrade) plus another -3 for an improved version of Worldwalker.
2) Domain gives the same benefit as Demense. However, it is natural, not supernatural. I.e. Darkseid doesn't control reality on Apokolips. But he can order just about anything built and he's had countless millennia to plan and build for almost any contingency
Sanctaphrax:
1. I guess it might even be a bit underpriced, then.
You may want to make that function clear. The writeup makes it look like all possible effects of being taken out are awful. I totally missed the travel utility.
2. Sounds cool.
JayTee:
A request, but would someone be willing to stat up Paul Atreides?
