Absorption:

• A character cannot use his own powers and abilities on himself in order to absorb them.
• Affects Non-Damaging Attacks (+½): With this Advantage, the character can absorb the  effects of attacks which normally cause no damage (such as Flash attacks) if the attacks match the character's special effect.

Aid:

• Empathic (-½): Aid purchased with this Limitation represents Aid which drains an equivalent amount of points from the character as it gives to the target.  The points drained return at the usual rate.
• Must Be Ingested (-¼): This limitation represents a drug or other chemical that must enter the bloodstream to be effective.
• Temporary (-2): This limitation represents Aid that is fleeting.  After a single 12 phase turn, all benefits from temporary Aid vanish completely.
• Succor: This option is being used, and may be purchased by the character.  However, it may not be purchased with the 0 Endurance Cost advantage.

Armor: Non-magical Armor is limited to +8 PD/+8 ED.

Change Environment:

• This can be used to create positive and beneficial effects (such as warmer and more pleasant environment, bonuses to rolls, etc).
• Multiple Combat Effects (+5 Points): With this adder, a character can buy more than one combat effect with a single Change Environment power.  The character can choose which of the combat effects to use whenever he activates the power; he can use one, some, or all of them as he chooses.
• Varying Combat Effects (+10 Points): This adder allows the character to switch among different combat effects with a single Change Environment power.  The character buys the power with the most expensive combat effect, and whenever he activates the power can choose to use instead any combat effect of equal or lesser value than the one specifically created.

Desolidification: Technically a character with Desolidification can turn his power on and off to make people miss as a zero phase action relying on a good Fast Draw or Dexterity roll. This is abusive and is not allowed.

Dispel: Characteristics cannot be dispelled.  They may, however, be Suppressed.

Drain: The Body characteristic is immune to Drain.

Enhanced Senses:

• Unless specifically constructed otherwise, all characters are assumed to have the five basic human senses.  Normal Sight and Normal Hearing are automatically considered to be Discriminatory.  Enhanced Senses are grouped according to their special effects, regardless of how they are purchased.  For example, if a character has the power to smell water, his Detect Water is considered part of his Smell/Taste senses.  All such senses are affected by sense-affecting powers that target the appropriate sense group.
• The sense of smell is covered in the official Hero Games FAQ, which says:  "The Smell/Taste Sense Group provides the following Sense Modifiers: Discriminatory, Range (Smell only), Sense. The Discriminatory effect provided by the Smell/Taste Group is not the full Discriminatory obtained by buying that Sense Modifier, but rather an effect of somewhat cruder degree (for example, a character can tell a steak from a potato by smell or taste, but can't necessary identify every ingredient in either dish). Characters can make Normal Smell or Normal Taste (or the entire Smell/Taste Sense Group) fully Discriminatory by paying the usual cost."
• Enhanced Senses belonging to a sense group normally considered Targeting automatically become Targeting for no extra cost.  The same applies to Discriminatory (but not Analyze), Sense, and Telescopic.
• Enhanced Senses may not be linked.

Entangle:

• Entangles are not automatically considered to have an area effect.  If you wish your Entangle to have an area effect, you have to purchase it with the Area Effect advantage.
• Hardening (-1): This advantage represents an Entangle that is relatively soft when it first enwraps its target, but gets harder and stronger as time goes on.  In game mechanics terms, the Entangle begins with only one-half of the total Defense and Body rolled.  It then gains +1 point of Defense and Body per phase until it has reached its maximum potential value.
• Deteriorates (-¼ or -½): This Limitation represents an Entangle that slowly gets weaker and weaker with time. At -¼, the Entangle loses 1 DEF per turn. At -½, it loses 1 DEF per phase.
• Does Not Prevent The Use Of Accessible Foci (-1): An Entangle with this limitation does not prevent the Entangled character from using most Foci.  (The GM decides when and if the Entangled character can use his Foci.)

Shapeshift

• Shapeshifting cannot be made Always On, though it can be made Persistent.  In addition, the Useable On Others Advantage may not be taken with this power.
• Clothing Does Not Change With Shapeshifting (-¼):  This Limitation is self-explanatory.

• Limited Effect (-¼): Shapeshift with this Limitation does not completely change the character.  For example the character might be able to transform himself from a 6'4", 220 pound male into a 5'1" 98 pound female, but when he speaks, he speaks with his normal male voice.  The player must define what does not change about him.

Suppress

• The Body characteristic is immune to Suppress.

• Normally, Suppress must be purchased to work against a single specific power or characteristic, such as Energy Blasts or Dexterity.  The following advantages take the place of the ones given in the book:

• Suppress Any Power Of A Given Special Effect (+½): This allows the character to suppress all powers and characteristics applicable to a certain special effect, but only one at a time.  An example would be Suppress vs. All Fire Powers.

• Suppress Any Power, Regardless Of Special Effect (+1): This allows the character to suppress all powers or characteristics he chooses, but only one at a time.

Telekinesis:

• For the purposes of holding an object, Telekinesis is a continuous power.  For the purposes of applying damage (such as when Telekinesis is used to throw, punch, or squeeze a character), Telekinesis is an instant power.

• Affects Porous (+10 Points): Telekinesis cannot normally affect liquids; this adder allows Telekinesis to do so.  The amount of liquid the character can affect depends on his or her Telekinetic Strength.  A character can use Telekinesis with this adder to form liquids into rough shapes; to sculpt the liquids into complex shapes requires Fine Manipulation and Artistic Skill: Sculptor.  Telekinesis with this adder can affect gases, smoke, and mists, but only if they also have the Area of Effect Advantage.
