Base design

Myself
Every superhero/supervillain needs a base. How would you make yours, using powers on the list. Say where you would put it, what defenses it would have, what would you put in it for protection, what structures it would have, etc.

I'm saying if you needed/wanted to have a base in our realm of existence (no pan-dimensional bases like ones made using Spatial Storage).

I also acquired power sacrifice so that I could use it in conjunction with spacetime indenmity to block everyone's power sacrifice.

Power of Imagination, to conjure up a 100-story fortress (made of a titanium, vibranium, Nth metal and adamantium alloy, of course), equipped with a room for every purpose (especially a dungeon/torture chamber and plenty of superhuman guards with various abilities of their own), and then Ability Imbuing to give the fortress the power of Selective Shadow Obliteration (delete the shadow of any unfamiliar person on the land), then Vector Control to deal with any flying foes (send them back to where they come from), and then surround this fortress with a mile-wide moat filled with battery acid (and the battery acid is swimming with acid-resistant alligators and piranha). Finally, imbue the fortress with not only a voice/eye/fingerprint recognition scan, but imbue it with all of the MythPowers, so that when I'm inside of it, they are all channeled to me!

MWahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

How would that protect you? All it would do is:

a) Block anyone's Spacetime Indemnity.
or
b) Block ONE person's Power Sacrifice -once you block someone's Power Sacrifice, you cannot use it to block another power because it would be using Power Sacrifice, which would restore the first person's power.

As I read it, Spacetime Indemnity is omnipresence, it is the ability to bypass the restrictions of the space and time.

Space-Time Indemnity isn't Omnipresence. Omnipresence means a presence that you are present through all of space and time, while Space-Time Indemnity allows you to defy space-time through a variety of powers like teleportation, time travel (but your body has a definite form, and doesn't transcend the bounds of space-time)

Sorry, I meant NOT omnipresence. They're very different abilities.

Yes, that would work. I deliberately allowed that, because it would make the power so much more useful.

I got the idea for the power from the fact vampires can't enter a residence without invitation, so I added a couple of changes and put it on the site. I put the con "someone has to be inside" just to make it a bit challenging to continuously protect a building.

Also, I see a good combination with Reincarnation: Genetic:
-Keep all your backups in there while they're alive, so they are protecting the building. Then when they die, they stop protecting the building and start ensuring your survival. Thus, it is near impossible to get in and kill all of your backups.

I got the idea for Residence Protection from the inability of vampires to enter a residence without permission. All someone has to do is invite someone, whether or not of their own intent thus, it includes mind control, persuasion, etc. However, only owners of a house have invitation rights.

Re: Base design

vampires would make a horrible police force.....oh well

I'd probably just sit under a tree and sleep there... most of my characters don't stay in one place for long anyway...so I've only come up with a few bases, but two of those are housed in pocket dimensions so... Let's see the only base that might apply to this is the giant land ship I came up with, that runs via an alchemic fusion engine that infinitely recycles magical energy.

You have a good point there; I never noticed it before. Add that to the fact they couldn't go out in sunlight, cross rivers, need blood, hate garlic and must stop to count any large number of small items (e.g. amount of grain in a bag) before moving past it.

Although, their superhuman speed, strength, durability, senses, mental powers, hypnotism, healing factor and other powers would make them very deadly in other parts of the police force, but only as supplements.

Yeah but what the heck is the definition of a house. techniqually a house can be anything from a warehouse to a cardboard box if someone has ever lived in it.

It's a supernatural restriction. It would only work on a HOUSE. If it's not intended to be a house, regardless of whether or not a person lives there, a vampire could easily enter it...
