Meh, Super Heroes can name themselves after anything, sometimes it could stand for something or something they believe in, other times it could decribe them, or it could be something completely out of the blue i.e. John from Justice Legue, he's a Martian with telepathic powers and powers over whether he is on the material plane, yet he calls himself John.

It's staggered by levels. Certain powers can be obtained at certain levels, and you can obtain 1 power per level, and 2 at first level, 1 primary and 1 secondary.

no you must choose from the first two primaries for your first primary power. then the other first power is ur first secondary power.

Okee dokee then, this is my character:
Glacier (level 1 Ice Blaster) Str: 12 Dex: 16+2=18 Con: 13 Int: 13 Wis: 14 Cha: 14
Hp: 7hp Endurance: 12ep Defense: +11 BAB: +1 Fort: +1 Ref: +4 Will: +1 Speed: 30ft Grapple: +1
Powers- 2
Ice Primary- Ice bolt
Ice Secondary- Chilblain
Background: Being born with blue hair and a lower average body temperature lead to a troubled life as a child, but made him quite popular in his teen years. Glacier realized his power to crystallize water at the age of ten accidentally when choking on a glass of water. Over the years he had been able to grasp control over when and what he was freezing, making him quiet handy, and getting him a job at the local italian ice shop, “Luigi’s Ices”. Known for a short temper and cunning sarcasm, Glacier joined a group of other heroes who were forming a group....
Description: Wild blue hair that’s whiter at the roots and gets darker, blue eyes, blue goggles that are always held up, a sort of black trench coat that’s cut off right above the knees and has no sleeves with 2 blue stripes that start from the shoulders and go down the back, a black shirt with three small blue icicles over the heart, black pants, and black and blue designed sneakers.
Thanks Mark, and i do hope we play this sumtime this week because it seems fun.

First you obviously forgot my rule of thumb for PC stats. All stats above 11. Plus since you are a Super Hero, you get a +2 bonus to any stat. Also, you're a blaster, in other words a long-range combatant, you might want a high Dex. Your BAB is only +1, you were using Defense Bonus standards as opposed to Base Attack Bonus, a good BAB is +1 every level. Your speed is 30ft, and finally your grapple is BAB+Str

I've been thinking of a speedy kinda Scrapper who can shoot out lightning. That possible Mark? Also, what would be my most important stats?

Ah, I just checked since that manual's long. No lightning, but I can use a katana! Hehe. So, do you roll stats the same way as in D&D? 4d6, ignore lowest one, correct?

yep. And for a scrapper, strength and constitution are probably the most important stats, followed by dexterity and the other stats. Make sure all stats are above 11, and you get one +2 bonus to a stat.
Also, what's ur secondary powerset going to be.

Okay, after the +2 to a stat, I've come up with this:
Str: 19 : 17+2 Dex: 15 Con: 16 Wis: 14 Cha: 12 Int: 13
Updated! Primary Power: Disemblowel
Secondary Power: I'm a little confused. Do I only pick from the Dark Armor section, or any section?
Also, what would my BAB, Saves, Defense, Speed, and Grapple be for the Scrapper?

Out of curiosity, can you be a villian in the videogame?
