Can't See Me; Camouflage

 Adapted from Camouflage- Superpower Wiki

Lately, I have been exploring various realms of genre fiction and wondering if there was a way to crash them together in a tabletop experience. This means figuring out a way to balance unrelated effects against each other. I love Mutants and Masterminds for its ability do describe almost any character ability you can think of, so I am experimenting with M&M’s tools to work on ways to fold multiple genres together.

Camouflage

The power to visually blend into immediate environment. Lesser version of Invisibility.

Capabilities

The user can visually blend into surroundings by blending in with the coloration and form of their background to avoid optical perception. Some users can affect their attire by means of "static camouflage". Similar to Invisibility, camouflage sometimes involves people turning invisible but with limitations. Some animals can naturally blend into an environment thanks to their skin color. Common effects is the user as well as what they are wearing/carrying is able to stay camouflaged while moving, the user will not cast a shadow as a result of bending light. Often associated with a shimmer or ripple effect when moving that can be spotted by the trained eye. The user is also able to camouflage while staying still by changing the color and texture of their skin and/or clothing. Whether or not the user's clothing changes with them varies from user to user. The user may still cast a shadow.


Limitations

Must be able to have similar colors as the location one is at.

Users of Enhanced Senses can detect the users.

May be limited to visible light.

May still cast a shadow.

May have to stay still.

Devices

Armory Battlesuit - Halouflage +1 Device


Tech


Active camouflage, which renders the armor virtually invisible (Total Visual Concealment 4)
