Why not? Some Heroic Abilities in MRQ seem rather silly to me (wall-leaping, decapitating strike), but having Powers that represents "excellence in skill" may be interestin. Certainly I would not like a feat-ridden system like That Other Game version 3.5+.
I don't like decapitating strike or death touch, simply as I don't really like 'save or die' effects. However, Wall Crawler or Lore master or some of the other ones, even fencer, I think are good ways to show focus or mastery of a specific techniques.

HPs in MRQ do not reduce damage, they downgrade the wound severity. Damage is reduced as a side effect. The effect would be to negate a Major Wound, for instance.
I think that's arguing semantics. The point is you could take 100 hps of damage to the head and still you can reduce it to nothing or almost nothing. That's pretty awesome and it does reduce damage. Are you suggesting by 'negate a Major Wound' that all the damage from such would go away as well?
