I'm starting a campaign. There's different rules though, so read the thing.
You don't need stats for your character for this campaign. Make a character with ONE power, and a restriction to go with it. Backstory if you want it, but make it good. We'll still have Break Points, and you get awarded your break point limit based on how good your character profile is. For your character profile, you have 10 suck points. Each shitty sentence (I mean really really shitty sentence) takes away one suck point. You can use the rest of them for items or something. Your BP limit is determined by how many suck points you use making your profile. You can have 5 free items, and the rest of them use suck points.
Why we don't have stat points: Logic is your stat points. If your character (based on your profile) should be good at what they're trying to do, fine. If they should be bad at it, you'd better start describing why it's gonna work this time. Being able to do something is going to be determined by how well you write the sentence. For example:
"Fredrick walked down the hallway tthen he ran faster down the hallway trying to get away while also quickly pulling out his super weapon and trying to charge it or whatever"
Is going to result in your character tripping, and falling on their face.
"Fredrick broke into a run. He grasped for his weapon. Relief flooded him as he felt the cool steal in his hands. It let out a high pitched whine as it started to charge."
Is going to result in your character getting an attack of opportunity.
Get it?

But not really, because this sentence sucks.
