There are a number of drawbacks to the CP system, that being one of them. It tends to force a measure of meta-gaming where you're focusing too much on the stats and getting the most for your CP instead of the character development. The lower stat version with talents is more well-rounded but if you're thinking about straight-forward combat and taking punishment the second route is better.
Much as I disliked the nuttiness of one particular member of the group there was a measure of usefulness in giving a set of ranks to assign wherever you wanted (similar to some formats of character creation in AD&D), do the same with powers and talents and go from there but YHS favors the CP system.

NAME: Jasmine
HERO NAME: Outsider ORIGIN: Natal POWER CATEGORY: Demihuman: Mouse OCCUPATION: Wanderer IDENTITY: Not known to the general public LEGAL STATUS: Non-human natural born citizen of the USA with no criminal record ALIASES: None PLACE OF BIRTH: Somewhere in the mountains of West Virginia MARITAL STATUS: Single KNOWN RELATIVES: None BASE OF OPERATIONS: Alternate Earth PAST GROUP AFFILIATIONS: None PRESENT GROUP AFFILIATION: None DESCRIPTION Jasmine is a tall, well-toned and trim anthropomorphic mouse clad in apparently bright emerald green fur with a love of tight leather and PVC outfits and fingerless elbow length gloves although will dress in more conservative attire if it’s required of her. HEIGHT: 6’ WEIGHT: 175 lbs EYES: Emerald Green HAIR: White (Tends to dye it Bright Green or a bright Crimson) FUR: White (Tends to dye it Bright Green or a bright Crimson) AGE: 24 STATS (30) FIGHTING: Remarkable (30) (30) AGILITY: Remarkable (30) (20) STRENGTH: Amazing (50) (20) ENDURANCE: Amazing (50) (20) REASON: Excellent (20) (20) INTUITION: Excellent (20) (30) PSYCHE: Remarkable (30) HEALTH: 160 KARMA: 70 (20) RESOURCES: Incredible (40) (0) POPULARITY: 0 TALENTS Engineering; Geology; Survival; CONTACTS None POWERS (ORIGINAL) Natural Weaponry/Claws: Jasmine possesses Remarkable material strength retractable claws capable of inflicting up to Remarkable edged damage in combat. Enhanced Senses (All): Jasmine enjoys the benefits of all her senses operating at the Remarkable level of sensitivity, although suffers a 1CS penalty to all attempts to resist attacks directed at any of her senses. Her improved sense of balance makes it difficult to render her dizzy and she always knows which way is up (i.e. away from the center of gravity) when inside a gravity well. Hyper-Digging: Jasmine has the natural digging ability of mice enhanced to superhuman levels of effectiveness, granting her Remarkable rank Hyper-Digging, allowing her to tunnel at up to 6 areas per turn. Any tunnel she digs remains stable within 10’ of her current position although unless digging through particularly stable ground will collapse behind her as she digs. She can make an attempt to shore up the tunnels while she’s digging although this will reduce her speed to half her normal movement rate, as will attempting to dig through substances harder than Remarkable material strength, although she may add her power rank for her Body Resistance to this power rank to determine what she can tunnel through (this means she may dig through Remarkable strength materials at full speed and Amazing material strength materials at half-speed, quarter speed if attempting to create a stable tunnel). It is also possible to use this power with care and consideration to create underground quarters and permanent tunnel networks. Body Resistance: Jasmine has Remarkable rank resistance to Physical and Energy Attacks. Regeneration: Due to her enhanced durability and resilient physical structure Jasmine regenerates at Good speeds, recovering lost health 10 times faster than normal and may regenerate lost limbs and organs on a successful feat check (made hourly until successful). Dimension Travel: Remarkable ability to transfer across dimensional barriers with a natural affinity to her birth world and to an alternate earth where sentient life never evolved. Extra-dimensional Detection: Excellent Gateway: Good Extra Body Part/Prehensile Tail: As is natural for her species Jasmine possesses a six foot long prehensile tail that naturally curls up behind her and flicks about expressively. WEAKNESS(ES) Energy Allergy: Monstrous Intensity or better Magnetism: Power Negation: Continuous with Contact HISTORY Seeing the need to conserve power and use underlings to aid in the creation of his hidden underground bases Magneto experimented with the creation of several artificially mutated and evolved life forms until the successful development of the anthropomorphic mouse who later took up the name Jasmine for herself. For years after reaching full physical maturity he had her excavating and preparing bases for him and pined away for freedom until one day those longings interacted with her previously latent potential for warping space and time in order to dimensionally shift to another dimension, an alternate earth where sentient life never evolved in the universe. Free for the first time in her life she set about reveling in that freedom as she learned how best to use the strange new powers she’d developed and set up her own cozy home on that other world. More time passed as she shuttled back and forth between the two worlds until one day on her return she was reminded of her creator and former master and the tyranny he’d inflicted upon her. While she’d been enjoying herself and her freedom others were suffering as she’d suffered and so many ways beyond that. She realized she’d spent enough time satisfying herself and enjoying that freedom and it was time to devote herself to doing more for her home world than using it as a quick shopping trip to restock her home on that other earth. No it was time to give back and put her formidable abilities to better use protecting those both human and non- from the deprivations of those who sought to use and hurt others for whatever reason.
