I'd rather keep spells as they are the way they are, and also add an "Enchant" word. "Enchant Hover" might make something you are touching hover. "Enchant Fire" might make a flaming sword. Stuff like that.

As to the other ideas...go nuts. I'd make resisting magic a Will roll in general, regardless of if it targets you or your equipment. Justify it with a Manton Aura or something.

The knife slips past armor and ribs to stab right into the backup officer's heart. He topples over soundlessly.
"...What the hell. Blaster! Hell! I need fucking backup! Send the Wards, the Protectorate, call the fucking Lilies!"
[17+4-5v17+2]
Selina dodges another beanbag.

The Director holds up a hand to Tabitha and checks his phone.
"...Damn. We shouldn't go upstairs. Also, be prepared to run...you don't happen to have any of those serums of yours left over, do you?"
[17] You have a number left over.

All the Wards' issued phones beep.
"...It's right here! Everyone out! Suspected Blaster or Striker! Move move move!"

Aside from Sliver, Delphinum, and Bullhit, String-Em-Up is here, and Piasa just downstairs.

Steven turns away from the corpses with a disgusted snort and discards the sword before heading up to the surface.

Hm...meh, it's dramatic.
He glances around wiping grit off of his surface. Strangely, not many people are paying attention to him.
Oh. A teenaged girl just threw a knife into the heart of a PRT officer. That's probably why no one's paying attention to Rocky.

[Selina: 4; PRT: 20!; Backup: 2]
"I need backup! Unknown supervillain, possible striker or brute!" The PRT officer fires, um...[10] some sort of beanbag at Selina.
[14+4v9+2][16-3;11]
The beanbag hits Selina right in the chest, knocking the wind out of her but not doing much more. Still, she doesn't get the knife thrown before [4] another PRT officer shows up, this one with [12] another beanbag gun.
[7+4v17+2-3]
This one shoots true, but Selina dodges impressively.

"How about Connie?"

"Why?"

"Don't know, think he was shot to. Also..." Selina whips out her knife and tries to stab Kevin with it, going for the gut.

If it hits: "I don't like him."

If shes stopped or misses, she struggles to try again!

[12v7-5][3+3][11+3-2]
Selina's knife passes easily through Kevin's abdomen, slicing upwards towards the rib cage. Her "afterimage" slices straight through Kevin's intestines.
[6] Kevin stumbles backwards, clutching the wound in his gut.
"...What the hell?" The PRT officer is surprised, to say the least.

Looking down upon the bodies Steven slides his clawed hand into the wall and begins dtawing the stone through his body forming a hilt for his arm blade as he ejects it from his body, once the transformation is complete he crouches down and checks the bodies of the two rats and takes all the metal objects and money he discovers.

[3] Sadly, they don't have anything of the sort.

The jaggedness is because of, well, I don't have any idea of how to remove it, it's done from raw data, its supposed to look like that.

My point was that there is not a consistent Death Rate. Deaths tend to happen in bursts, and certainly not consistently.
Incidentally, any chance you'll continue the Death Graph?

Suggest the GM add someone from the waitlist to keep Fun levels up to par. Conceal that my true motive is to increase the number of players.
