I have to agree with you there.  Things that just define the character and 
have no real combat effect shouldn't cost extra points.  And while I like 
some of the other thoughts on tricks, I think 5pts is a little steep 
(Disclaimer: I do not have the books yet.  All comments should be considered 
"off the cuff."). 

I think 1 or 2 pts would be more in line for minor effects like "Light'em up" 
mentioned earlier, while the costume teleport *should* be 5pts because if you 
take it a step further it could be used as a sort of quick draw to put 
anything on your person into your hand.  Or perhaps that should actually be a 
full-fledged 10 pt trick.
