Meta-Alteration
Meta-alteration: [Minor] by Iczer
'Yeah well, Now you have made me really mad'
The character can alter small but basic aspects of himself and his powers. The character possesses an 'alternate state' where he appears as himself, but his abilities appear different.
For the most part this is merely cosmetic in nature. A Power in use appears different most of the time. (JetLass, with flight: energy usually has a glowing green contrail. her alternated aspect has a rainbow contrail)
If a power provides a randomly determined bonus, then that bonus is rolled a second time for the altered state. SDC is not altered in this fashion. (Dexter, with Ex:PP rolled a +4 bonus. His altered state has a +2 bonus)
If a power has a type of energy attached, then the character may optionally have his altered state use a different energy. (Heat strike has APS fire. his altered state uses electricity. He has all his normal abilities, but he uses electricity instead)
Lastly, the character may take attributes and 'pass them over' to the other state and vice versa. This is a one time change selected when this power is acquired. up to 5 points may be transferred form any attribute and up to 15 points total. (Dr awesome has an IQ of 16 normally, but he donates 4 of those IQ to his alternate state. He has 12 and his altered state has 20)
