I've got an idea for a PC with Gravity and Spatial Manipulation as well as Warp (so basically space-fold themed powers). Does this step on anybody's toes?

No Backing.
Cipher will be rather...superfluous, but feel free to take it if you want.
No Influence
Node's the same.
No Followers.
Resources is going to be mainly survival/sciency stuff. You can have millions of dollars if you wish but they'll serve no purpose.
No Contacts
Attunement is the same.
Dormancy is the same.
No Allies.
Eufiber is the same but if you buy it it must be discovered in-game.

Nah, no biggie, the ability to control gravity and warp spacetime made Warp (wormholes) the obvious first choice but Teleport works just fine - more like Robotech space folding or the FTL jumps in current Battlestar Galatica

Character creation rules: 50 NP, beginning Quantum cap at 5, no level 4 or 5 powers EVER, beginning Taint cap at 8. Beginning Willpower is 6.
So we start with Willpower 6 and can buy more or is it starting and fixed at 6?

Not really. Try not to use strengths and weaknesses, as the system for them is pure suck and fail. Other than that, I don't really care.
Also, Permanency as an aberration is a drawback, not a benefit. *baleful eye*

I thought about putting together a mesh of elemental anima, bodymorph, and semisolid shroud to make a darkness-based creation. Though it would be less for combative effectiveness and more for style than anything.

Sounds like an anti nova combat god Ziggy! Since we are the only novas you can take our quantum, take our powers, will be able to max out mega dex and str and be impenetrable to mental meddling.
Sometimes you remind me of...me!

Go for it Ulric. I have a weather controller idea but it is far better suited to an Elite's game and one where mastery would be on the table.

Just making sure I'm not stepping on any toes, here's what I'm looking at. 3 options, both telepathic to some degree...
Option 1)(in order of priority) - Temporal Manipulation - Pretercognition - Telepathy
^---- Chaotician
Option 2)(in order of priority) - Telepathy - Empathic Manipulationn - Domination
^--------- Chess Player w/ mortal pawns.
Option 3 -Hypermovement -Momentum Control -Flight
^-------- Redefines Speed Demon

Alrighty then!
SO i Have an idea I thought might work for this one. Actually its a remake of the first Aberrant character I ever put on paper. It bears some similarity to my Black Tom concept, namely high taint and a damaging effect on his surroundings. I think it might work better in this game though.
Basic idea is before the apocalypse, some nefarious group (probably the same one that created Joani's character) tries to turn the character into a living weapon. The experiment backfired however ending with the utter destruction of the facility, basically turing it into a sinkhole and burying him for hundreds if not thousands of years.
Concept/Powers.
Basically the idea of extreme quantum energy channeling. The researchers who were experimenting upon him were trying to take the limit out of channeling quantum through the human body. High Mega Stamina, resiliency, adaptability. Force Field, High Quantum Bolt and Electromagnetic vision. Has taint 8 and emits hard radiation. This is mitigated by dorm 5, and by a radsuit that he will aquire in game(but purchased with background points). Sullum could absorb the harmful radiation and be stronger while making my characters life more livable. Maybe they were brothers who were experimented on.
Feel free to comment be be aware that I am reallyn liking this idea.
Im thinking the character wakes up with Amnesia, dormed not knowing his powers or what happened to him. Toying with the idea of giving him flashbacks related to previous happenings but that depends on what Drew has planned. It would have to fit the story.
Now that I think of it, What would you say Ziggy for our characters to be related somehow? They both have amnesia and their powers are complementary.
