Create Bio Forms
Create Bio Forms (Major) by Mr. Scorpio, Mr. Twist and Zen
This is the ability to create temporary, low powered, expendable minions to serve as scouts, laborers or even as a small fighting force. They are 100% loyal, always fighting to the death when ordered to do so. The creatures created by this power can have almost any shape, which is chosen when the character is created. While one character with this power could create creatures with a goblinoid appearance while another might create flying monkeys and yet another could create green blobs.
The creatures will always appear wearing what ever is appropriate to the character (goblinoid creatures could be dressed in dirty, ragged clothes or miniature replicas of the Heroes costume while flying monkeys might only wear a fez and green blobs wouldn't need clothes at all). The only skill the creatures possess normally is Hand to Hand combat skills.
Each character starts with Bio Points equal to his/her P.E. X 10 + P.E. X 5 for each level of the character. These points are initially spent to modify the Bio Forms basic appearance and abilities. The points spent to modify the Bio Forms are lost permanently and the remaining points form the characters available power pool from which points are spent each time he/she creates a Bio Form. Therefore making the Bio Forms more powerful means that the character will have fewer points left to use to summon them later while making them less powerful means that he will be able to summon a lot of them. Extra points may also be spent when creating a Bio Form to give it certain bonuses depending on the situation.
The character becomes more powerful and experienced (3rd level and higher) so do the Bio Forms he/she creates. At levels 3, 6, 9 and 12 the character can once again spend his/her Bio Points to modify and enhance the abilities of the Bio Forms. Further, as the character rises in levels even more powerful options and abilities become available.
Range: The creatures can be created anywhere within 20 feet + 5 per level of the character.
Duration: The creatures will fade away 5 minutes (+ 5 minutes per level) after they are created.
Attacks per Melee: Creating a Bio Form takes 2 Attack/Actions.
Recovery of Bio Points: Expending Bio Points affects the characters ability to create new Bio Forms however Bio Points regenerate at a rate of 100 per hour (25 every 15 minutes).
