With Dan mentioning that he wanted to make stuff for other characters to use I was thinking about the in game mechanics of how this could work, and I have come up with a new rule.
If you spend a power point to help another player, they get the benefit of TWO power points.
For example, it normally costs 2 power points to double the damage or effects of a power. If a player helps another by spending 1 point, that player can double the effects of their power.
This could be described in lots of different ways: Jo uses a whirlwind of sound to throw Mr Dead through the air, Kaladin manufactures a special weapon for Tommy, Yukio uses a spell to make Metalmorph glow red hot, etc.
The way I am thinking it would work is that you wouldn't even need to spend an action - if you can think of a cool way to help your teammate and you're prepared to donate a power point, you can do it.

yeah baby!!
Of course - this is liable to make me even more of a glass cannon, stay at the back and do stuff at a distance and buff the other characters kind of character!
What can I say - she is young and doesn;t have permanent toughness powers... - yes she's versatile, but could very easily be taken down... Still - that's what Tommy and the other tanks are for!

I think we should get some combat practice in teamwork.
