First, Bio Ghost and the Mega "Doesn't need to eat or drink for nourishment'.

Would said Mega ability override the need for life force or does the weakness override the ability?

Second, Intangibility with Energy Expulsion or Psionics/Magic. Does it work?

I would say the Mega ability would override the major powers disadvantage. Perhaps weaken the need for life force feeding? Lastly, reduce the penalties for having not fed off of life force or extend the amount of time the hero can go without feeding during the various stages of life force starvation?

I might need some more feedback to give you input on this topic.

1. I might have it that the need for bio-energy would bumped up to a level equal to that of a Achilles Heal so the char would fit both the MH mod and the major power.

2. no, depends on the power, depends on the spell.

Thats a nice additional option. ^^

#1. No. "eat or drink" would be in the conventional sense IMHO, so the Bio-Energy need hasn't gone away.

#2. Will they work, YES. HOWEVER, they will not necessarily behave as one would expect if we use Psychic/Magic Astral Projection to the material plane as being a guide ("cannot touch and feel, or pick up or carry anything, but can speak, hear and smell as normal" pg277 MB, this is pretty similar to Astral Projection-MP pg305 MB) IMHO. This limits your ability to engage in combat (Power does prevent combat w/non-intangible objects) like Astral Projection-MP, so unless the power targets another intangible character or targets the mind of another tangible character(s).

Doesnt bio-ghost give you the "no need to eat or drink" because of its disadvantage?

I've always liked the Shrink powers, both self and/or objects, combined with the storage powers: dimensional pocket and dimension door. The charcter with sufficinet theivery (perhaps adding speed tasking...) or resources becomes a one-person quartermaster depot.

Lets see, APS:Air and Flight:wingless. Instead of using APS's movement, which causes wind noises and makes you visible you use the mino powers which is noiseless.
Very sneaky.
