Overall it will probably be a bad desescision to make them perment, if nothing else, because someone will speed through the popup that informs them such, pick the wrong power, and be here to gripe about it the first time they try to respec
.
It could still all be fine though, and it does matter what the pools have and how they are structured. If all the pools have 16 powers, and are identical between patrons except for animations or something, test server can pretty much take care of the graphics to see which you like. Main problem is the people above who speed trhough popups, or dont read the boards or whatever.
Overall I am fairly hesitant, but really, I wont be making anything close to a final call until i can see an abilities list.
And for some of the people who dont want to join Recluse, you go through the arc, get your patron power, and then RP that you betrayed them to steal their tech/powers/skills. Wont work for everyone one, but not too many supervillians seem like it would be against their morals to backstab someone for power.
