Ultimate Talents
The purpose of the Ultimate Talents List is to deepen the secret ID part of the characters, giving them realistic professions. In the old system it was taken that the character with Medicine talent was a podiatrist/surgeon/pediatrics/oncologist etc. Now, there are talent categories and these break down further into the specific talents. Taking multiple talents in one category can enhance and have positive effects in Reason FEAT bonuses or even resource bonuses. More on that later.

With detailed talents such as these, not only can the character's origin be given depth but it adds history to the player, allowing him to be unlike anyone else; i.e. Iron Man, Reed Richards, Dr. Doom and Box are all considered as having engineering talent in the old system. Booooring. Any avid reader knows that all four men use their talents in different ways. Using the Ultimate Talents List system allows your character to blast off into a specific science or skill, mastering that field much like Dr. Henry Pym, the discoverer and user of Pym Particles.

Of course, not all Marvel sciences or talents are covered since some are very secreted and known by few people like the aforementioned Doc Pym (who has Physics-Pym Particle Physics) or the scientist who has Earth Sciences-Metallurgy-mastering the science of creating adamantium and first concocted that powerful substance. That's where your player's imagination comes in, the Ultimate Talents List just gives a better basis for growing.

Reason FEAT Enhancement And Resource Bonuses

It goes without saying that when an Oncologist (a doctor who studies cancer) also learns about radiology or emergency medicine he becomes a more valuable doctor. With that in mind, it is now possible to become even more of a specialist in one's field and have it benefit one's resources and Reason FEATs; i.e. Captain Mold has a secret identity, Mike Moldenson. Mike Moldenson works as a Oncologist at BumberVille Hospital and has Excellent resources. He decides to go back to medical school so that he can help in the fight against child leukemia so he takes pediatrics for 1000 karma points. Now, since he is more knowledgeable and no doubt a more valuable oncologist, he gets 4 resource point to bring him to Excellent. In addition, he now gets a +2CS to Reason FEATs involving his profession and can be regarded as a specialist.

Keep in mind this only applies to heros or their Secret Id's that are currently employed in a field that utilizes their talents. (Of course, the judge could be hard on the players and not give their Id's this raise; unappreciative boss, etc. The Reason FEAT enhancement would still be there but not the resource bonus. That's totally up to the judge.) This system encourages having fun with the Secret Id. in addition to the normal do-gooding hero's life. Remember, the maximum positive column shift for a Reason FEAT is +3CS regardless of how many talents may apply to a repair or invention.

Judges: Keep in mind that this system will have the players running to obtain new talents that will benefit them resource wise in their present jobs. Be hard on them. Make them roll popularity FEATs to get promotions. Have their Secret Id's look for new jobs. Fire them occasionally, give them annoying work mates and when they fail on a work project demote them etc... This is a fun way to play Secret Id's

Please, keep in mind that some talents include bonus contacts. Please, refer to the original talents list to see which talents give what when rolling a character's skills and talents.

When the target is checking for effects the target must shift his endurance down -1cs for checking slams and stuns. The Bad news is this attack requires a significant amount of timing and energy.
