: Sounds good. The uses may be a bit limited, but it could come in handy at

*giggle* I think it should be something like "the maximum force of the
adhesion power is equal to the maximum force the character could lift"
to keep things plain and simple. This way the adhesion power isn't
able to harm you really bad by itself. Just imagine an "infinite
force" adhesion power: Your arms / legs / whatever you stick to the
surface with could be ripped off... *shiver*

Ah. Very good. This sounds perfect.

Later,
Georg
