Floro101 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Hey! I'm new to the game. A couple of questions 1. Artifacts -- How are they found? Is it automatic or can I search for them? 2. Schemes - Can schemes be created in the editor, or are they just random? IE: "Green Goblin robs bank" makes sense in marvel, but "Darth Maul robs bank" seems less desirable.

Sometimes, one will appear where a character attempts to claim an artifact. Similarly, I think it is possible for a storyline or event to award an artifact to a character. But (in-game) you can't tell a character to look for one deliberately. 2. Every character in the editor can be assigned schemes/quests from a list. So you might assign Green Goblin a Robbery scheme and a Nemesis Vendetta scheme, and you might assign Darth Maul a Civilian Kidnap scheme and Hero Vendetta scheme. Then you might have a generic Hoodlum character who doesn't have any schemes because he's just there as backup for other villains. Some of the schemes deal with retrieving artifacts, so to go back to your first question, you could sort of tell a character to search for artifacts by giving them only schemes or quests to do so, but you would still be depending on them being randomly selected to start an adventure.

Floro101 Posted September 25, 2023 Author Share Posted September 25, 2023 Thanks for this...Another quick question, can we not create custom powers?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 You can't create brand new powers, but you can customise any of the existing powers - that's kind of the whole point, they almost all have the option to change their activation rolls, power level, stun level, etc, etc. I'd recommend you look in the editor, as that would probably clarify a lot of things for you.
