You may be relieved to know that one of the new things in the BRP rulebook to come are... a hero point system.

It's not revolutionary, and is an optional rule in the GM section, but it differs a bit from the extant hero/fate/drama point systems in that it uses an existing player resource - temporary power points (also known as magic points).

With the ability to spend power points (not characteristic POW) to affect in-game results, now every character has a reason to pay attention to that value, no matter whether they're a magician/sorcerer/psychic/mutant/superhero, or just a normal human.
