Solarium (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

"A little sun never hurts."

The superbeing composes fractal forcefields from sunlight, interlocking sections to form a kind of force dome.

1. Sun Shield: The superbeing can construct a shield to a maximum size in feet (adjustable by the superbeing with but a thought) of half his ME attribute number times itself ( half his ME squared) which has SDC equal to his ME attribute number, plus one point per level of experience. He can use it to block strikes at +2, but any strike hitting the shield will deplete its SDC, although it will deflect light and lasers with no damage done to it (takes half damage from other forms of energy attacks). The superbeing can only use this ability his ME number of times per day, plus one more time per level of experience. Since it is made of light, it weighs nothing to wield. A shield bash using the Sun Shield will do 1d4 damage, plus PS bonus (twice that to creatures vulnerable to sunlight).

2. Solar Dome: The superbeing can create a force dome by creating a number of the sun shields and interlocking them. The dome is a radius in feet equal to the superbeing's ME number, plus one foot per level of experience, on all sides and is made up of his ME attribute number, plus one per level of experience, of shields having SDC equal to his ME number each, plus one point per level of experience. He can use this ability also a number of times equal to his ME attribute number per day, plus one time per level. The dome will remain standing even if some of the sections become exposed (SDC from one shield does not redistribute to another) but the superbeing becomes vulnerable to attacks from the unshielded sections. The shield will also remain standing even if the lower shield sections are gone and there is seemingly nothing to support it. It has all the invulnerabilities and resistances of the Sun Shield.

3. Disadvantages: Because it uses light, the power can only be used in direct sunlight. The shields also take twice damage from darkness attacks.

4. Other Abilities and Bonuses: The superbeing himself is resistant to light and laser attacks (half damage) and cannot be blinded by intense light. +2d4 ME
