POWERS & ABILITIES
(*=Linked)
Power Creation / Control: Galactus' Continuum Control grants him the ability to transform ordinary beings into super-beings. Galactus can invest this power either in a specific being or a specific tool. To do so, he makes an Action Check using his APs of Continuum Control as the AV/EV vs an RV/OV of the Target's Body. if the Check earns RAP's equal to or greater than twice the target's Body, the target is reintegrated into a cosmically powered being. Galactus can distribute the RAPs from this check among any power set he desires to bestow upon the target. If the target had Powers at the time of this check, Galactus may increase those powers as he sees fit. The Attributes and Powers Galactus bestows upon such beings can initially go no higher than 20 APs. Such changes are permanent; only Galactus can reverse his changes. Galactus has total control over those Powers and Attributes he may have given a target. He can reduce the Attributes and Powers he had given a subject by any amount, all the way to 0.
The Cost of Power: Each use of Omni-Power powers costs Galactus 10 more Hero Points than normal. Any use of Continuum Control or Omni-Power over the intensity of 19 APs also costs him 1 point of Current Body.
Hunger: Galactus has a finite energy supply that he must constantly replenish by consuming the lifeforce of entire worlds. Galactus’ hunger is so severe that he must feed every 30 Terran days or his abilities drop. If he has not consumed a world after that period he loses 1APs from all powers and abilities per Day he has not fed. Although Galactus could eventually starve to death, he normally seeks out the nearest usable world when his abilities drop to 16 APs.
ROLE-PLAYING NOTES
Galactus exists more as an elemental force than an actual being. Although he does act from motivations incomprehensible to mortal men, he does seem to possess some emotions. He is, however, careful to keep these emotions from influencing which planes he consumes. When his life was saved by Reed Richards, he swore never to attack Earth again. He also appreciates the honor and nobility of his heralds, especially the Silver Surfer who recently saved him from destruction at the hands of the Elders of the Galaxy. He may also be falling in love with his current herald Nova
Galactus is a completely amoral individual who does what he wants to do without any consideration of the consequences on other beings. His favorite self-explanation is “I am beyond good or evil ... I simply am.” The survivors of the millions of worlds he has destroyed think otherwise. Galactus had been told that his existence had a higher purpose; perhaps he hopes that this unknown destiny will somehow compensate for all the destruction he has wrought.
Galactus has one pride, his honor. If he makes a promise, he will hold to it until the universe ceases to exist. There is one exception, though. When Galactus is starving, he will do anything to feed. He will even break previously sworn oaths, such as his pledge to no longer threaten Earth.

Exusiai's Notes Galactus, Devourer of worlds. This is pretty much on par with the Anti-Monitor of the DC universe. If he shows up the heroes Are going to have to band together to even be able to attempt to convince him to not eat their homeworld. Besides, they should not want him to, Earth is where they keep all their stuff.

Density Increase: Power always on; power is figured into stats.
Growth: Power is always on; power is figured into stats.
Mental Illusion: Power is always on; power is limited to each sentient being perceived him having a form resembling their own. Hence, humans see Galactus as an enormous armor-clad humanoid, while an amoeba-like species, for example, would perceive Galactus in an enormous amoeba-like form
Telepathy: can not read a mind that is being read by another.
Vampirism: takes 11 APs of time (2 hours) to complete, use of this power directly without the machines listed below leaves Galactus immobile for 1-10 days - Skills Gadgetry: 27, Scientist: 27
- Advantages Connection: Nova II (High), Death (Low), Eternity (Low); Genius; Headquarters: Expansive (Taa II); Iron Nerves
- Drawbacks Catastrophic Irrational Attraction: Hunger; Serious Irrational Attraction: Keeping his word/code of honor; Strange Appearance; Misc Drawback: See "Hunger" below
- Alter Ego Galan
- Motivation Nihilist
- Occupation Devourer of Worlds
- Wealth 35
- EQUIPMENT
CONTAINMENT SUIT [Body: 30, Energy Absorption: 30*] Galactus wears a full-body suit of armor constructed from an unknown material of his own design that helps him to regulate and control his personal energy. If he were to remove the armor for an extended period, his vast cosmic energies could run rampant and potentially give him the appearance of a star.
Elemental Converter [Body: 26, R# 2] Galactus often employs his Elemental Converter when devouring planets to help him in the conversion of matter into energy. Although he does not require this device to devour planets and will forego its use in certain scenarios, it makes the conversion of energies more efficient.
Bonus
Misc: The planetary devourer gives Galactus' Vampirism a 25 AP radius Area Effect
Limitation
Vampirism: while using the Planetary Devourer, it takes Galactus 15 APs of time (24 hours) to use his Vampirism
Drawback This device takes 13 APs (8 hours) of time to set up
WORLDSHIP [Body: 30, STR: 30, Flight: 40, Illusion: 20, Radar Sense: 35, Radio Communication: 33, Sealed Systems: 30, Warp: 35] Galactus’ transport is a mile-wide sphere. It is most likely that a person will encounter him on this ship. The Worldship possessed the essential portions of Galactus’ support machinery. It possesses a stardrive that can propel the ship at FTL speeds and journey through hyperspace to reach a destination almost instantaneously. The Worldship contains the apparatus that enables Galactus to destroy a living world and convert it into consumable energy (see: Elemental Converter). There is no actual control room; rather, the Worldship follows Galactus’ mental commands. If Galactus is separated from the Worldship, it can follow his orders even at a distance of several light-years. Should Galactus fall into a death-like state, the Worldship is programmed to seek him out, recover the body, and transport it to Taa II.
Limitations
Illusion: used in conjunction with Radio Communications to project a hologram of Galactus
