I submitted a character with two feats from the Masterminds Manual, and was told I'd have to submit a proposal separately for them. So here they are:
1) "Benefit: Use Intelligence for Gather Information." It's exactly what it sounds like - replace Charisma with Intelligence as the base ability for the Gather Information skill. It's meant to represent a hacker character with hacker friends, who digs up her dirt in a different manner from someone cruising bars and roughing up thugs.
2) "Speed of Thought." This allows the character to use her Intelligence modifier instead of her Dexterity modifier as the base for her Initiative. Unlike the previous feat, this one was actually named and constructed by Kenson in the MaMa (it's on page 47).
These feat is in the same category as other feats that allow you to use a different modifier than the standard for a given task - existing examples in the core rules include Acrobatic Bluff, Grappling Finesse, Startle, and Taunt.
So...yea or nay?
