Godling/demigod conversion
My current campaign (that we're finally able to play in person again!) is taking place both on Palladium and currently in Phase World. I've turned the Phase World setting into SDC. Two characters are a demigod and godling (one from the Norse Pantheon, the other TBD). Since the conversion notes are not quite complete as per normal I'm looking for some feedback on AR.
I'm assuming that their supernatural nature would give them a basic natural AR. What would you use for them?

Re: Godling/demigod conversion
This is common all you can really do is look in something like Conversion Book 1 to find equivalent beings and just go from that.
For demi-gods I would say 7 to 10 and Godling 10 to 13.
I like this a lot but for which one godling or demi and where did you get it.

You should check out the Powers Unlimited 2 book. It has Demigods detailed there in the 'immortals' power cat. Along with a few other types of supernaturals sentients.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

Made it up, but based it off things i have seen in palladium, and characters always like things that progress, and it gives them another thing to look forward to when they level up, so honestly i would let the players choose

Thanks for the input everyone!
I think I've figured out what I'm going to do.

I agree with this and I like it when stats advance just wondering if it came from something specific.

If I ever ran something like this my players would have raced to use this line. Have to love Ash

Lol. Three galaxies won't be coming to Palladium I don't think, unless it's to the great rift. Was planning a crossover between the groups in hades.

Going by DB7 any high tech stuff wouldn't work under the Palladium World's Neutral Energy Dimensional Matrix.

I take that with a grain of salt, given the picture of the Defilers... guy with high-tech armor, guy with blaster rifle, guy with flamethrower...

Re: Godling/demigod conversion
You can really only do that once for a given continuity, and it ain't even that fun. Better, I reckon, to foster sword and planet tropes and the like. Plus, one could include a Neutral to Other Matrix benefit such that Tinker (from whatever Rifter article)-made aeolipiles might well serve as TW engines.
Re: Godling/demigod conversion
I would use Palladium Fantasy 1e which has basic bits for demigods, godlings etc on page 155. Then on page 160 actually stats them up.
So I would absolutely use that as your Bible in this instance.
EDIT: Vlad-Tegor, Godling has AR 10 in 1e.
