Experience Notes : We can assume that a typical comic book character gain a new power level for each 100 comic he make an appearance (not counting cross-overs and alternate series), or alternatively 1 Power Point per 6-7 comic book appearance, since comic book storytelling is slower than roleplaying games. Written and compiled by Sébastien Allard, © 2003, Ghosts of the 7th Sea FASERIP to d20 Traits

The basic traits in Marvel Super Heroes Advanced Set are known as FASERIP (Fighting, Agility, Strength, Endurance, Reason, Intuition, Psyche). They can easily be translate into classic d20 traits such as Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma.

Fighting translate directly into Base Attack Modifier. Take the « Ranks » column in the first table to get the Base Attack Bonus. It is suggested that you follow the limitation sets by your Power Level. For example, if (a PL15 character) have Unearthly Fighting (100) in MSHAS, don’t give him +25 of Base Attack Bonus in M&M, that would mess up the game mechanics.

Agility translate into Dexterity without modification. Strength stays the same in both system. Endurance becomes Constitution. Reason translate into Intelligence, no change there. Intuition become Wisdom since the later is the representation of perception. Psyche will be be covered by the Willpower save and the Amazing Save (Willpower) power. Your Save total should be guided by the « Modifier » column on the first table.
