Albert Newton
Albert Newton is a “super genesis” and he likes to remind people this fact constantly. On one hand he is snobbish, self-absorbed, liar who often comes off as a being of pure
emotionless intellect. However, he always seems to have the best intentions at heart. He is a very good leader, he is loyal to Metallica and Atom Lord, has a great respect for the
power and heroism possessed by his other teammates, and generally cares about Siberiad despite his shortcoming. He will go to great length to protect and save his teammates. He
will do almost anything to accomplish his objective, from swallowing his pride to breaking the rules in order. Despite his better qualities, Albert is a master schemer and never let
anyone know the full details of his plans. He looks at normal people as an elephant looks at insects, they are insignificant to him, mattering to him if only he needs them for an
ulterior purpose. Yes, he will make sure they don’t come to harm, he does the right thing at the right time.
Real Name: Albert Edison Newton
Occupation: Works for Eagle Knight Security.
Alignment: Principled
Power Category: Natural Genius
Experience Level: 10th
Hit Points: 46 S.D.C.: 40
P.P.E.: 28

Age: 38, Sex: Male, Height: 5 foot and 10 inches (1.55 m), Weight: 170 lbs (76.5 kg)
Vulnerability: Albert knows he is faster, smarter, and better than everyone else. He respects and tries to associate with others with a strong college education or share his
outlook on life. He will talk with “ordinary people” but his arrogance always put them on a lesser status them himself or other educated people. Because he is so brilliant and
dashing, he takes foolish challenges, takes dangerous risks, and often underestimates those of lesser mental status them himself. Albert has a firm code against directly taking of
human life, even the evilest being he will attempt to save their life instead of take it. Even if he has rigged the villain’s island with explosives, he will attempt to warn his
henchmen and allow them time to get off the island. He will save whom he can if able too.

break fall fails! It can also be used against a knock out attack (roll a 15 or better). A successful roll against knock out means the character takes normal damage, but is not stunned
or unconscious. Note: The break fall uses up one melee attack each used. Combat Trance (22 times per 24 hours, 20 melees, +2 to attacks, +1 to initiative, +6 to strike/parry, +3

or knockdown), Paired Weapons, and All Holds (+4 to strike).

Weapons: 2 Sleep Guns, Range: 165 feet (50 m), Damage: 4D6+2, Rate of Fire: Single shot or Semi-Auto, Feed: 15 round box mag. Each comes with a special silencer to
reduce noise. Each clip is loaded with Chemical Rounds filled a powerful tranquilizer (save vs non-lethal poison/16) that the moment the round impacts, the chemical instantly gets
absorbed into human skin, it causes its victims to instantly lapse into a comatose like state for 1D4 hours, even if the save is made, the victims is woozy in 1D4 melees making him

Albert Newton possesses the technology in his lab at home to Clone Physiology from animals, plants, human (oids), even aliens. The clone possesses all of the traits of the being ]
cloned from, ranging from the genetic donor’s memories, skills, knowledge, and powers. However, they only retain short- and long-term memories prior to their last REM sleep. This
means if a person went to bed at 10:00 pm, and he was cloned the following day at 3:00 p.m., any memories the subject acquired from the time he woke up to the moment he was
cloned, the replica does not know. Everything cloned can only live equal to the number of years the original did prior to being cloned. So cloning a 12-year-old means the replica can
only live for 12 years. In the beginning your tech only allowed clones to live equal to P.E. attribute in days.
Every time a human (oid) is cloned, take the subjects I.Q., M.E., and M.A. attribute score add them together then divide the number by two. If the subject rolls below this
number they retain their original alignment and personality. If the subject rolls higher, then roll on the random personality chart on page 36 of Heroes Unlimited 2nd edition. If the
person becomes diabolic, that clone cannot be played by anyone and automatically becomes a NPCs used by the Game Master.
If you take any genetic material that is more than 1 hour old or from a deceased subject, you can make a clone of that person but they automatically roll for a random
alignment and personality. The reason the mind of a person will always react differently (perform) during any situation, different emotions, personality quirks, might cause an
alternative reaction/outcome. The clone will develop an opposite or entirely new outlook on life even though it remembers the same scenario (the Pixar movie Inside Out good
reference). Albert knows this very well because his own clone panicked when he realized he only had a few weeks to live and dedicate his existence to extending his life. That
clone is now the super villain and arms dealer known as Lord Bedlam. Because of what happened, Albert built in safety protocols into the machine that will ensure he cannot
be cloned by anyone other than himself Lord Bedlam).
Albert has used his tech to clone his friend Agent Shroud (Marcus Hynton) 13 times in the last 5 years.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Crisis
Crisis has spent most of his life trapped in a containment suit with only his head exposed. This is why he has an endless curiosity about life. However because he doesn’t get to touch
people (with his hands), he seeks out any opportunity to give out kisses. His mouth is constantly getting him into trouble because of his brash attitude. He dated War Flyte briefly
but their relationship ended when she caught him cheating on her with Spectra (she alone could control his powers to allow him to touch and…do more). Despite his traumatic
childhood and harsh upbringing, he dedicates his life to protecting innocent and stopping crime. Whenever he sees a young mutant, experiment, or anyone with physical deformity
he will immediately try to console them and make them feel better about life. He has too so he doesn’t start to get upset when he considers his own future.
Real Name: Thad Zackary Workman
Occupation: Agent of Eagle Knight
Alignment: Scrupulous
Power Category: Mutant
Experience Level: 5th
Hit Points: 32 S.D.C.: 62
P.P.E.: 15
Appearance: He is a slim, unattractive, natural athlete who engages in moderate exercise. He has shoulder length blond hair and bright blues eyes. His face and body are
marked by scars and burns. His skin tight containment suit is blue with white ovals on it.
Attributes: I.Q. 10, M.E. 17, M.A. 13, P.S. 16, P.P. 15, P.E. 12, P.B. 6, Spd. 14/338 mph (544 km).
Age: 32, Sex: Male, Height: 6 foot (1.82 m), Weight: 182 lbs (81.9 kg)
Unusual Characteristics: Hyper Powered and Power Lock, He cannot minimize or moderate his super abilities. They always released at maximum power doing full damage, full
duration, and 30% greater ranger. All other stats and functions of the ability are unchanged. His Electric Field is always on, the power cannot be turned off, making it impossible for
him to assume a normal life without his suit.
Vulnerability: Crisis is unable to regulate his electric field. This is why he must always stay in his environmental containment to keep his powers in check. He must always
wear the suit (there is a special zipper in the suit to allow him to use the restroom) or continue to destroy everything around him.
WARNING: If Crisis touches anything iron or steel without the suit on, or if he is wearing the suit and his body is pierced with an iron or steel object that touches the ground
simultaneously. This cause his body to explode, discharging electrical energy that does 1D6x100 points of damage to everything and everybody within a 60 diameter (18.3 m)

Money: He has $6500 in his checking account and $7000 in his saving account.
Weapons: He relies on his super abilities. Note: Anything wearing metal (iron, silver, copper, etc) takes 10 extra point of electrical/lightning damage, 20 points in the electric
field.
Joy Buzzer, While wearing the suit, Crisis can touch people and give them a joy buzzer shock (1 S.D.C. point of damage, cannot do Hit Point damage). The shocked
person lose initiative and there is a 01-50% chance the person will drop anything he/she is holding, or release an opponent that is being physically restrained, entangled, pinned, or
otherwise held.
Energy Expulsion: Electricity, Range: 520 feet (158 m), Damage: 48 points, Bonuses: +4 to aim/+2 to wild.
Energy Expulsion: Electric Field, Area Effect: 26 feet (7.9 m) around his body, Damage: 24 points every 5 seconds in the field, Duration: One full melee (Unlimited
without the suit), Attacks per Melee: Erecting the field counts as one attack/action (Unlimited without the suit).
Electric Channel, Range: 227 feet (69 m), Damage: 66 points Bonus: +6 to aim/+2 wild. Need to touch or hold an electrical source.
Electric Punch, +3D6 to his punches. Counts as two attacks.
Summon Lightning, Range: 910 feet (277 m), Damage: 108 points, Attacks per Melee: Two bolts, each counts as two attacks/actions, Bonuses: None. Note: Can only
perform during specific weather conditions.
The Electric Nova, He summons a bolt of lightning while triggering electric field, causing him to release a massive electric blast, 10 feet (3 m) tall with a 300 foot (91.5
m) blast radius, Damage: Everything within the blast radius takes 70 points of electrical damage initially then takes electric field damage for the next 5 melee rounds (cannot be
turned off). Those caught in the blast must make a save vs non-lethal poison (16 or better, without the benefit of a poison bonus, use P.E. attribute bonus only) or they are stunned
for the next 2D6 melee rounds (-8 to strike, parry, and dodge, reduce speed by half, and attacks per melee round by two). Those who are successful only lose initiative and one
attack/action for that one melee round, but they have to get out of the electric field or they must make the save again the next melee round. Note: When the nova goes off,
everything within a 910 foot (277 m) blast radius is hit by an Energy Expulsion: Electromagnetic Pulse.
WARNING: If Crisis does the Electric Nova without the suit on, it will do the same damage as APS: Fire-Super Nova! Roll on the survival table. The EMP blast radius is one mile
(1.6 km).
Crisis Environmental Containment Suit, The suit can withstand and help control his awesome energies. The suit is able to respond and regulate precisely measured amounts of
excess electrical to escape and burn off harmlessly. The ten white ovals on the costume are the control circuit pads that constantly analyze, regulate, distribute, and release the
mutant thermal energy. They change to a yellow color when energy levels are extremely high. As a safety feature, only five of the control pads are needed to maintain the suit. If six
or more are damaged, Crisis will release his electric nova (see above). The suit is impervious to electricity and takes half damage from ion weapons. His own electrical energy can
regenerates lost S.D.C. at a rate of 10 per hour. The suit is considered body armor (not power armor or an exoskeleton), but it does appear seemingly indestructible. A.R. 14 and
400 S.D.C.
Note: Only Albert, Cage, and Spectra and a handful of tech at EKS know the truth about Crisis condition. This means that there is NO reason for any antagonist to attempt to
destroy or disable her suit. As far as the world(s) is concerned, she’s just another costumed super being. Crisis has four spare suits locked away in security vault in EKS. Anyone
attempting to build/replicate the suit would suffer a -115% penalty and repairs/maintenance would be done with a -90% penalty.
Equipment & Vehicles: Crisis has access to some of the advance technology and equipment of Eagle Knight.
Crisis has spent most of his life trapped in a containment suit with only his head exposed. This is why he has an endless curiosity about life. However because he doesn’t get to touch
people (with his hands), he seeks out any opportunity to give out kisses. His mouth is constantly getting him into trouble because of his brash attitude. He dated War Flyte briefly
but their relationship ended when she caught him cheating on her with Spectra (she alone could control his powers to allow him to touch and…do more). Despite his traumatic
childhood and harsh upbringing, he dedicates his life to protecting innocent and stopping crime. Whenever he sees a young mutant, experiment, or anyone with physical deformity
he will immediately try to console them and make them feel better about life. He has too so he doesn’t start to get upset when he considers his own future.

duration, and 30% greater ranger. All other stats and functions of the ability are unchanged. His Electric Field is always on, the power cannot be turned off, making it impossible for
him to assume a normal life without his suit.
Vulnerability: Crisis is unable to regulate his electric field. This is why he must always stay in his environmental containment to keep his powers in check. He must always
wear the suit (there is a special zipper in the suit to allow him to use the restroom) or continue to destroy everything around him.
WARNING: If Crisis touches anything iron or steel without the suit on, or if he is wearing the suit and his body is pierced with an iron or steel object that touches the ground

Cage
Jake joined US SCRET because he wanted to make a difference in the world, to stop the bad guys. His family was worried about him but he convinced them he would be safe. He
signed a special waver that allowed SCRET to take “extra’ means to preserve him should anything happen to him on the job. His body was broken and crippled along with a dozen
other agents trying to take on mega-villain Ti-Ton. When he awoke, his brain had been transplanted into a cybernetic body yet they preserved him an artificial face. When asked if he
wanted to contact his family and tell them he was alive, he said no. Jake worked for SCRET a little while longer then decided he needed to get away because he could stand the looks
so many of his fellow soldiers were giving him. Jake joined up with Eagle Knight Security and is overjoyed he doesn’t get the stares or fake smiles anymore. He found himself
working along Albert Newton and his group of Obsidian, Crisis, Spectra, Siberaid, Atom Lord, and Metallica. Every so often he watches his children and his ex-wife from afar, too
afraid to reveal that he is very much alive but not entirely human. He sympathizes with Crisis but doesn’t excuse him of his mouth and attitude. He’s amazed that Metallica handles
being the way that she is. Whatever he needs to do to take down the bad guy, he will go for it. If he needs to bring out the big gun, then so be it.

Spectra
Spectra is the “last” original member of her race, the Fellairs from the planet Fellas. Her planet was doomed to die when her planet’s sun went super nova. She was genetically
enhanced and modified to enable her to reproduce with other human or humanoid males and give birth to offspring that would evolve regardless of the father alien type into Fellair.
She was then sent out into space to find suitable suitors so she could “clone” her race. She landed on Earth. Before she could initiate her task, she was capture by Project Secure.
After spending two years in their Alien Acclimation Program she was allowed to live on Earth if she joined an agency to benefit humankind. She chose Eagle Knight. Spectra is a
gentle, merciful and compassionate person. She seeks to save life not end it. Evil must be defeated but not killed for the sake of killing. Law and order and necessary. She has not
abandoned her original mission. She just needs the right candidates. She feels terrible about breaking up War Flyte and Crisis. Next time she won’t pick anyone already in a
relationship. She has yet to tell anyone that as far as she knows she is the last original Fellairs, but her people sent out 1D6x1000 pods with female clones just like her all over the
Liloqua sector of the galaxy. Though most were launched in FAR Space the fact she arrived in Ilta sector just shows how anything is possible.

SIBERIAD
Siberiad is a Russian Super Soldier, an experiment combining animal genetic material into the same process used to create the Red Iron Guard (RIG). The process worked but the
project was abandoned because the RIG themselves saw it as a perversion of their purity. Siberiad was sent mission that were supposed to fail or the Intel gained was immaterial.
Eventually he realized he was simply being used and thought as a disposable asset. So he sabotaged a Russian sub that he was on, making sure he was the only one capable of
escaping. When he arrived in the US, he asked for asylum. He was taken to The Sector where he provided as much detail as he knew. Instead asking him to join them, they called
Eagle Knight to inform them they had an enemy operative turned traitor who wanted to work for the US. Siberiad was sent to Century Station to get his training. He received his
training alongside Velocity Girl, Princess Xi and Amber Gauntlet with their instructor being War Mace. After one year, Siberiad was reassigned much to his chagrin to Albert Newton’s
new team with Atom Lord, Metallica, Obsidian, and Crisis. A year later, despite the friendship he developed, he still misses the beautiful Princess Xi. Crisis is a smart ass that needs
his teeth kicked, Spectra wants him but he’s not interested in aliens. He gets along greater with Albert, Atom Lord, and Metallica, but he and Hugeo can’t stand one another. A fight
breaks out almost once a week. They do everything they can to avoid each other. He alone is the more than enough reason to want to be reassigned back to Century Station so he
and the girls can be together again. Siberiad is at home in the wilderness, able to move swiftly, silently, and skillfully. He’s not as much of a loner as he once was, though he’s still
not great in social settings. He trusts his intuition and sees things others miss. He enjoys solving problems in simple, direct ways, without tortuous planning. Siberiad is not highly
educated, nor very sophisticated – he’s a doer, not a thinker.

Obsidian
Obsidian is an intelligent man who turns into a crystal monster. Once he worked on rocket ships for NASA, hoping one day to work on the new multi-national space station being
largely financed by the United States and Canada. During a mission, a crystal meteor struck the space craft and passed through his body. He survived but the exposure cause him to
grow crystallized ache all over his body. Later he developed the ability to turn into the same crystal substance believed to have been the meteor. He’s spent most of his life searching
the globe for that meteor believing it more than likely survived reentry. Meanwhile what to do when you look like a crystal monster; you find a job that doesn’t care if you turn into
a monster. The people working for Eagle Knight not only embrace him, but they also delighted in what his mind had to say. He’s respected for his intellect as much as his strength
and size. He loves to bounce ideas off Albert Newton. He’s fascinated by Spectra. He’s knows Atom Lord is refusing to share pieces of information about his past. He wants to help
Crisis and Siberiad overcome their personal issues. As for the other members, he doesn’t believe they have the serenity or dedication to do the job. Obsidian is trying to remain a
nice guy, friendly, hospitable, and someone who does the right thing. It’s hard to be a descent person however when you look like a crystal monster.

Obsidian is an intelligent man who turns into a crystal monster. Once he worked on rocket ships for NASA, hoping one day to work on the new multi-national space station being
largely financed by the United States and Canada. During a mission, a crystal meteor struck the space craft and passed through his body. He survived but the exposure cause him to
grow crystallized ache all over his body. Later he developed the ability to turn into the same crystal substance believed to have been the meteor. He’s spent most of his life searching
the globe for that meteor believing it more than likely survived reentry. Meanwhile what to do when you look like a crystal monster; you find a job that doesn’t care if you turn into
a monster. The people working for Eagle Knight not only embrace him, but they also delighted in what his mind had to say. He’s respected for his intellect as much as his strength
and size. He loves to bounce ideas off Albert Newton. He’s fascinated by Spectra. He’s knows Atom Lord is refusing to share pieces of information about his past. He wants to help
Crisis and Siberiad overcome their personal issues. As for the other members, he doesn’t believe they have the serenity or dedication to do the job. Obsidian is trying to remain a
nice guy, friendly, hospitable, and someone who does the right thing. It’s hard to be a descent person however when you look like a crystal monster.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Atom Lord
He comes from the planet Cosonia in the Triangulum Galaxy (a spiral galaxy 2.73 million light-years from Earth). His planet is similar to Mercury. He came to the Milky Way galaxy to
explore its various life forms. He’s been to countless worlds in the Ilta Quadrant. When he arrived on Earth, he couldn’t help but get emotionally involved having identified that
Earthlings are genetically compatible with his people. He can if he so chooses start to spread a bio-metallic virus which converts living matter to an organic steel-like substance. This
is how his native race repopulates itself. The virus can only affect human-like individuals, allowing them to remain conscious and not turn into an unfeeling machine. The virus
doesn’t work on other alien humanoids (so far) or animal life. Cosonians became bio-metallic beings 2.5 million years ago when Cosonia lost its atmosphere when its sun became a
red giant. They later concluded that The Gift is a precious one and must be shared with other compatible life forms. They searched the Triangulum Galaxy but couldn’t find any
suitable humanoids. So it was decided to spread the gift to the two nearest galaxies Andromeda and the Milky Way. Adam Lord believes there are 3D6 other Cosonians exploring the
Milky Way searching for human-like individuals. He doesn’t know if any of his Cosonians have found and shared his success. No one, not even Albert or Spectra are aware he has or
can spread the Gift. When he joined Project Secure’s Alien Acclimation Program to give him US citizenship, he didn’t tell them either. His advocate in Project Secure recommended
him to pretend to be a mutant who has the ability to turn into APS-Metal, thus the reason he has an alias. This has allowed him the ability to full integrate himself into human
society. Adam Lord strives to become a champion for all Earthlings and protect them from those who would do their race and society harm. So far he hasn’t encountered a threat
that has convinced him he must start giving The Gift in order to save humanity. At his core, he is a simple man who has found himself trapped in extra-ordinary circumstances. When
looking for people to follow him, he bellows orders. If something is in the way, he hits it. Atom Lord generally takes the simplest and most direct solution to any problem. Atom at
times exudes an air of cold authority and confidence.
The Gift: The gift is a bio-metallic virus (Pestilence) that various members of the Cosonian race can inflict on human-like individuals. Atom Lord need only touch bare
flesh to transfer the virus to another person. The alien nature of the virus is IMPOSSIBLE for regular, ordinary humans to save against. Only “true” super beings can make a saving
throw of 15 or better to resist the virus (with only using P.E. attribute bonuses only), however those with extraordinary recuperative abilities and recovery from physical
injury/damage at least 3x faster than normal, can use additional bonus to save vs the virus. Those inflicted within 1D4 melee rounds have their organic flesh converted into an
organic steel-like substance (APS-Metal). For those who are true super beings, this transformation effectively REMOVES all other Major Super Abilities (gone forever). Victims must
make a save vs insanity (or better) or their personality also get rewritten become a pacifist (see page 36 in Heroes Unlimited 2nd edition). After 1D4 days, the newly created bio-
metallic humanoids gain all his other natural (super) abilities and they too can inflict the Gift, but it’s not as potent requiring a saving throw 14 or better for normal humans and
super beings.
The Curse: If Atom Lord decides to give anyone the Gift, he must immediately afterward make a saving throw vs insanity (12 or better) otherwise his natural instinct will
kick and he will attempt to inflict EVERY single human on planet Earth where they want it or not. He won’t be able to stop, he won’t take no for an answer, he will do whatever is
necessary to complete his task to give the Gift to every human on Earth.
Real Name: Cerkon

Occupation: Surveyor who came to study Earth, now emotionally invested to save the planet. Member of Eagle Knight Security
Alignment: Unprincipled
Power Category: Alien (Cosonian/bio-metallic humanoids)
Experience Level: 8th level
Hit Points: 50 S.D.C.: 800 Armor Rating: A.R.:17
P.P.E.: 20
Appearance: He is a tall, rippling, metallic humanaoid with short bluish gray hair and dark blue eyes. Most naturally assume he is an anatomical correct android or a cyborg.
He is pretending to be from planet Earth as a mutant. He has learned to fool people but he still doesn’t understand the reason for clothes and because of his powers and what he
does, they tend to get destroyed rather easy.
Attributes: I.Q. 14, M.E. 12, M.A. 11, P.S. 48 (superhuman), P.P. 15, P.E. 23, P.B. 19, Spd. 14/370 mph (595.7 km) in flight/FTL 8.
Age: 3500, Sex: Male, Height: 6 foot and 6 inches (1.98 m), Weight: 720 lbs (324 kg).
Originating Alien Environment: He comes from a combination Toxic Atmosphere/High Radiation.
Vulnerabilities: Besides those listed under APS-Metal, he is vulnerable to psionic (mental) attacks and magic (weapons and spells). Attacks from Supernatural Strength do half
damage if they roll under his natural armor rating, and full damage if they roll 18 or higher. Water Vulnerability: Being submerged in water (like a swimming pool, horse
trough, bathtub, natural body of water, etc) nullifies ALL of his super powers (including his Superhuman P.S.), causes discomfort, and inflicts 1D6 points of damage per melee round
to his Metal S.D.C. but cannot kill him (cause any Hit Point damage). A light rain stings and does 1D4 S.D.C. points of damage per melee round, but can also be easily negated by
wearing protective clothing. Medium rain shower does 2D6 S.D.C. damage per melee round or he takes this amount of damage if he is splash with enough water to drench him.
Furthermore, he cannot heal from the S.D.C. damage until he gets out of the rain and dries off. Heavy rain or a thunderstorms or being sprayed with a hose or any form of constant
running water inflicts 5D6 S.D.C. damage per melee round. He cannot heal from the damage nor use any of his super abilities (strength is render normal) while out in the storm or
being hit by the running water. Note: He cannot swim and instantly sinks to the bottom of any body of water. In order to get out someone will have to retrieve him, like a
sunken vessel on the bottom of the ocean.
Natural Abilities: Impervious to all non-magical energies, impervious to all types of radiation, heat, fire, plasma, including magic fire, impervious to organic attacks (poisons,
toxins, drugs, gases, etc), doesn’t need to breathe or eat (absorb and feed on ambient/radiant energy) and can function at maximum efficiency with only four hours of sleep. He can
survive indefinitely in the vacuum of space. His metallic body can recovery 4D6 S.D.C., every 10 minutes. Hit Points recover at the same rate as indicated on page 18 of Heroes
Unlimited 2nd Edition.
Major Super Abilities: Control Radiation, Energy Absorb, Superluminal Flight, and Alter Physical Structure: Metal (constant, natural state). Note: He is constantly radiating
small but potentially dangerous amounts of radiation. To prevent this and not kill his “organic” associates he must concentrate on absorbing/holding the radiation in, which he can do
even while engaged in combat (cannot use his radiation powers) but doing so reduces his attack/actions per melee round by one-half.
Minor Super Ability: Flight (Wingless)
Attacks per Melee: 6/8 (2 Initial +3 from Hand to Hand +1 from boxing) +2 from flight
Combat Training: Martial Arts
Combat Bonuses: +2 to initiative/+3 in flight, +2 to strike/+6 in flight, +6 to parry/+10 in flight, +6 to dodge/+12 when hovering or flying under 80 mph (128 km)/+14 to
dodge when flying over 80 mph (128 km)/+17 when flying FTL, +35 to damage/+4 to damage for every 20 mph (32 km) of flight speed, +5 to roll with punch/fall/+8 during FTL,
+3 to pull punch/+5 in flight, and +2 to disarm/+4 in flight.
Saving Throws: +21% to save vs coma/death, +4 to save vs magic & poison, and +6 to save vs Horror Factor.
Combat Skills: Karate Punch 2D6+2, Power Punch 4D6+4 (Counts as two attacks), Backhand 2D6, Elbow/Forearm 2D6, Knee 2D6, Karate Kick 2D6+2, Snap Kick 2D6,

Metallica
Vivian joined the US Army to prove to her family and friends she was just as capable as any man. During a mission, her team while protecting a bridge was ambush by a dozen
partial cyborgs. She was the only one to survive. Back on US soil, she was feeling sorry for herself that she should have died with her companions. She was met by a representative
of The Sector who offered her a chance at revenge if she wanted to participate in an ultra secret program purposely designed to turn people into a new kind of super soldier. She
agreed. Three months later, the super soldier Metallica was born. Then the Paris Affair occurred and The Sector was forced to cut funding and do away with various classified

Amulet
Hope looks like female basketball player but what she really wants is for people to recognize her intelligence. She is smart, kind young woman who only converses with others she’s
spoken to. She enjoys schooling, science, and cooking. One day she was being harassed by some boy so she hid inside an abandoned building. While hiding a large scarab like beetle
with long antenna had crawled along her back and bitten her in the neck, firmly attaching itself to her flesh. She panicked and freaked out. The boys came after her, but just before
they reached her, she managed to fly away. Hope soon learned she possessed other special abilities, not sure what to do or if she should remove the insect. When she saw a super
being doing a good dead for someone, she asked him what should she do? He pointed her in the direction of the training facility. After school Hope trained at Eagle Knight Security.
She can only be a part time person as she has to go to school (except on the weekends) and she has to sleep because of the blood drain. She not sure if she wants to pursue a
career as an EKS agent or go on to college. She is torn between the two decisions. Hope relies heavily on Siberiad or Hugeo for help in combat, and she is always trying to get them
to stop fighting. While she is a part-timer, she tries to make sure everyone feels appreciated and included in the team. She has the mental capacity for leadership but lack the skills
to execute most of her ideas due to her young age. She is good friends with War Flyte, New Wave, and Shimmer.

Shimmer
After immigrating to the United States with his parents, Waki Michizane tried his best to fit in. He endured teasing and being told he was unwanted. His parents insisted he find a
way to connect with the American teens. Perhaps it was by sheer will power, Waki developed super abilities as a teenager, the same time he started practicing martial arts. After high
school, he joined the military. Later he became a Super Operative involved in numerous covert ops missions in Asia. At 36 years of age, he decided to retire and go work for Mutant
Recovery Teams. After a while he didn’t like how these supers treated those they went after. So he quit and joined Eagle Knight Security. At 42 years old, he’s the old man of the

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Yes, this is the same Pinpoint from Villains Unlimited 2nd edition page 177-178 only he's been redone to 2.5 version. I'm using this Pinpoint rather than the original comic book
character because this guy is just wicked nasty and way cooler than the bald guy with the tattoo on his head.
Pinpoint
Pinpoint is a happy-go-lucky young man with a cheerful disposition. Born a mutant, he was in the US military Special Forces for four years but quit to become a freelance mercenary
and bounty hunter. He once was heavily involved with Mutant Recovery Teams and the Mutant Slave Trade. After working on a joint mission with Senior Special GIGMA agent Scott
Benter, he’s had a change in heart and attitude. He joined up with Eagle Knight Security to steer himself in a new direction. Although now maiming and severely injuring his targets,
kind of sort of still happens. He is also the perfect undercover agent because he is so confident, resourceful, and level headed. Much to his personal dismay, he has a baby face and
looks like he is only 16 instead of 24. This also works to his advantage in undercover and combat because opponents think he’s a kid and not much of a threat. This gets him into
confrontations with Siberiad, Atom Lord, and Albert Newton who keep treating him like he’s a newbie. He is energetic, smart, confident, resourceful, cocky and daring. He has a
wisecrack for every occasion (but executes restraint and decorum). He is also patient and persistent. He doesn’t have to have his weapons on his person to defend himself. Anything
he can get his hands on can potentially be turned into a deadly weapon. He enjoys teaming with Shimmer since the two of them have a lot in common.

Money: He can afford to live very comfortable thanks to his various freelance jobs as a super operative. He has a government issued credit card with a $25,000 limit, he has
3D6x$1000 in cash stashed as his apartment, and $400,000 in his checking account. His annual income fluctuates around 1D6x$100,000 a year.
Weapons: He can pick almost anything and turn it into weapon, but these are his favorite.
Recurve Bow: A specialized carbon fiber recurve bow (designed by Hardware Weapon Expert). The bow is collapsible, with breaks above and below the handle, as well as
midway down the length of each limb. This allows the bow to be folded into a more compact form that makes it easier to conceal, carry, store, and transport. When deployed, the
bow can swiftly re-assemble in one quick motion as the limbs lock back into place. The bow has the capability to transform into a bo staff which could be used for melee combat
(2D6 damage), Range: 1600 feet (487 m), Damage: 3D6 using normal arrows.
The arrow quiver he carries is designed to organize and store his arrows on his back while providing him easy access to his arrows. The arrows are kept in two separate
bundles side by side. This allows the quiver to stay a flat and keep a slim profile while being worn, which keeps it from hindering his movement. He can perform a summersault
without any arrows falling out. Each bundle contains 16 arrows, making a total of 32 between the two halves. When he makes the motion to reach for an arrow, sensors in the quiver
release the appropriate arrow. The quiver is composed of a light-weight, symmetrical outer frame.
16 Standard Arrows and 16 gimmicked arrows. Player Choice of how many and what type of gimmicked arrows (must add up to 16 per adventure).
______Stun Arrows, This arrow head release an electrical charge that attacks the nervous system after making physical contact with the skin and flesh. Its purposely designed to be
non-lethal and knocks an enemy unconscious or into a dazed or semi-conscious state. Victims needs to make a non-lethal poison (16 or better, can only use P.E. attribute bonus
only) otherwise the victim is dazed, -10 to strike, parry, and dodge, reduce attacks per melee round by half for 2D4 melee rounds. A successful save leaves the person unimpaired
except loses initiative and one melee action.
______Exploding Arrowheads (Damage: 5D6 with a 20 inch (50.80 cm) blast radius)
______ Smoke, this arrow head releases a thick, cloud of smoke covering a 20 to 40 foot (6-12 m) radius. The smoke obscures vision in and through the smoke cloud and causes
minor difficulty breathing. Infrared optic systems cannot see into or through smoke. Those in the cloud are –5 to strike, parry, and dodge and –1 on initiative. Attacking firing
into/through the cloud is shooting completely wild! Aimed shots or controlled bursts are impossible (the shooters cannot see the target)! Note that passive night vision scopes will
not work in a smoke cloud.
______Burst Shot: A special arrow that contains little pellets, about the size of 5 stacks of quarters that explode on impact. After the arrow hits its target, these pellets stored in the
arrowhead fire in a circular pattern, hitting all nearby enemies. This arrow is useful for attacking groups of enemies. Initial damage 3D6, while everyone else in a 10 foot (3 m)
radius takes 2D6+6 points of damage.
______Tear Gas/CS: The gas is released after the non-lethal arrow hit, instantly affecting the initial target and everyone in a 25 foot (7.6 m) cloud radius. Those not wearing a
protective masks or environmental body armor will have their eyes burn, sting and water profusely, causing great discomfort and making seeing clearly impossible. The gas also
makes breathing difficult and irritates exposed skin. The effect lasts for about 3D4 minutes. The cloud dissipates in about five minutes unless blown away by wind (dissipates in
about 1D4 minutes). There is no saving throw for tear gas. Victims are –10 to strike, parry, and dodge, -3 on initiative, and lose one melee attack/action for each of the next 1D6+1
melee rounds. Those in environmental armor are completely safe and not affected.
_______ Tranquilizer (knockout) Gas: After the non-lethal arrow hit, this gas is released. This anesthesia-type mist will induce drowsiness within 1D4 melee of exposure (save vs
non-lethal poison) and sleep within 1D4 minutes (save vs non-lethal poison). If the victim makes the first successful save, his body has successfully fought off the effects of the gas.
However, the person must roll once for every minute (four melees) of exposure. Those who fail the first save become groggy, and remain as such even if they make the second save
successful for the next 1D4 melees (-2 on initiative and to dodge). Those who fail the second save pass out. Once the 25-foot (7.6 m) cloud dissipates in about five minutes unless
blown away by wind (dissipates in about 1D4 minutes) victims can be awakened with some effort (still suffer the effects of being groggy for 1D4 melees). If victims are not forcefully
awoken, they might sleep for a lengthy duration. Those in environmental armor are completely safe and not affected.
________Thermal (Incendiary): A special arrow that contains a chemical mixture that can melt through a variety of materials, including most metals, when activated, similar to a
powerful thermite reaction. After exploding, it burns for 10 melee rounds. Damage: Up to 12 feet (3.6 m) from impact-1D6x10; 12-24 feet (3.6-7.3 m) 6D6, 25-36 feet (7.62 m-
10.9 m) 2D6.
________ Tracer: Designed to penetrate armor and/or flesh, but on the moment of impact, numerous nano-technological devices are secreted into the bloodstream. These
microscopic devices produce a tracking signal that allows the target to be global positioned any place in the world, even up to 100 feet below the ground or water. Even if the
arrowhead is removed, there is no way to remove the nanos. They will remain active in the bloodstream for up to 72 hours. Damage: 4D6, Bonus: lowers a target’s A.R. by two (or
get a +2 against armored targets).
_________ Grapple: An arrow with three small, claw-like prongs that was made to function as a form of grappling hook. When fired a high tension cable remains attached to
Pinpoint’s bow, as the arrowhead makes contact with a surface the three prongs become embedded and a series of micro-explosives remove portions of the arrow shaft from the
cable at its core, allowing the cable to pivot from the arrowhead/grappling hook itself. The cord is a super thin, super strong wire with a test strength of 1000 lbs (450 kg). Range:
200 feet (61 m).
_________ Flare: An arrow that produces a brilliant light without an explosion, used for signaling, illumination, or defensive countermeasures. It provides 20 seconds of light equal
to five hundred 100-watt light bulbs (equal to daylight). While in the air provides enough light to illuminate 984 feet (300 m). If allowed to fall onto the ground, reduce range by
70%.
________HVAP: (High Velocity Armor Piercing). The moment this arrow is fired, tiny fins come out to help stabilize them thus allowing travel at a higher speed, and thus providing
them even greater penetration then a normal arrow. Add 1D6 to the damage capacity of the average round, and lowers a target’s A.R. by two (or get a +2 against armored targets).
The range of this arrow when fired is increased by 50%.
M24 Sniper Weapon System (SWS), Range: 2625 feet (800 m), Damage: 4D6+2, Rate of Fire: Single shot, Feed: 5 round detachable box mag.
Heckler and Koch P30, Range: 165 feet (50 m), Damage: 3D6, Rate of Fire: Single shot or semi-automatic, Feed: 15 rounds detachable mag. He sometimes adds exploding
ammunition that acts like miniature rockets that explode on contact. Damage: 5D6, 1 foot (0.3 m) blast radius.
6 exploding shurikens, Damage: 3D6 damage.
8 shurikens, Damage: 1D4.
1 Bola
1 Metal Boomerang, Damage: 3D6 (can be thrown to return). Weight; 2 lbs (.91 kg).
A pair of throwing knives concealed in his gloves (4 total; small 1D4 each), a pair of throwing knives concealed in his boots (4 total; 1D6 each with a +1 bonus to throw).
Armor: He owns a variety of different types of light and heavy armor, prefers light-often wears a frag cape of his own design (A.R. 13, 120 S.D.C.). 14 lbs (6.3 kg), no movement or prowl penalties.
Equipment & Vehicles: He has limited access to EKS Arsenal and equipment. Besides his weapons, he has the following:
Utility Belts and Harness – many places to store throwing weapons/ammunition.
Nightvision Goggles
Climbing Gear
Small First Aid Kit
Radio Transceiver Headset, Radio Range: 6 miles (9.6 km) or unlimited with satellite communication. Note: To even attempt to intercept the encrypted radio transmission
requires a successful skill roll using the skill Electronic Countermeasures with a -15% penalty.
Radio Locator
6 Tracer Bugs, marble size bugs with an adhesive surface that emit a radio signal for up to four days. Two mile (3. 2 km) range.
He drives a 2021 BMW K1600 (B Kalamata Metallic Matte). Top speed of 140 mph (225 km).

Night Howl
What Night Howl cares about is serving “justice” to those who never seem to get a fair shake. He doesn’t like to mingle and he not that fond of his team mates. He is a creepy loner
that finds comfort walking the streets and helping the people who live there. Yes he chooses to live in his own world and only associates with those who can help him if it suits him.
H’s a fanatic when it comes to dealing out punishment to those who do others wrongly. This is much more important to him than human contact and social niceties. He has a black-
and-white conception of Truth and Justice. His opponents have a marked tendency to end up dead, quite possibly in awful and grisly circumstances, and that leaves him completely
unmoved. He doesn’t talk about how he grew up as mutant living on the street and in sewers. It doesn’t serve a purpose to his goals. He’s very introverted, rambles to himself, when
wrapped in investigation he’ll forego sleep and hygiene for days, maybe weeks. He has a natural dislike for Siberiad (because of his cat nature perhaps) and if he does have to work
with people, he prefers the part timers like Amulet, War Flyte (boy is she hot and have a killer body), and New Wave. He doesn’t trust Atom Lord, Metallica, Albert Newton or any of
those bunch. He and Gimmick share a lot in common and work well together.

War Flyte
War Flyte doesn’t understand why everyone in the world is attracted to her. She looks in the mirror and sees a mutant. Yes she has cool powers which can be used in all sorts of
weird and strange ways, but just look at her? Do guys really think she’s attractive or is it because she a mutant? Her powers appeared in her teens and her parent forbade her not to
use them. In college in Century Station, she saw the Centurions and wanted to be just like them. She joined the Eagle Knight Academy hoping to get the training she needed to join
them. After graduating, they reassigned her to this location. She wants to be a Cavalier hero, so she gets real fame and fortune. The praise and approval that comes with those who
accept super beings as they are. She is best friends with Amulet. She is very attracted to Pinpoint. She likes hanging out with the other part timers like New Wave. Crisis is a jerk
and she’s had to put him in his place on numerous occasions. One day she might have to break his face. She is always trying to keep up a good, public image, that way when she
becomes a Cavalier, she will get positive press and good social media presence. She doesn’t want to do anything that will give her negative press.

Velocity Gal
Velocity Girl doesn’t like doing “super hero missions” or the mercenary stuff. She prefers being a bodyguard for the celebrities, why because it doesn’t involve danger and dying. Yes
she can run at sonic speed and do all kinds of thing better than normal people, but she really wants to avoid a direct confrontation with super villains and people with machine guns.
Her confidence was shaken up after an incident a year ago involving the Cremator. She loves being on the movie set and protecting celebrities and getting to know all their little
secrets. She would love to be a celebrity herself. She often recruits War Flyte to join her so they can tag team when it comes time to hang out and look gorgeous at the swimming
pool. She and Metallica are always getting into it because Metallica says she’s soft and weak, which makes her vulnerable. Velocity doesn’t see it that way, she believes if you play it
smart, you get paid and don’t have to work hard. How she acquired her powers when she was 15 years old is a complete mystery to her. Ever since she’s been doing the best she
can to earn a living that brings acceptance from others and a paycheck. She tells Princess Xi and Amber Gauntlet old team mates of hers that she still keeps in contact with that they
need to invest their money in order to build a small fortune so they can retire early as millionaires.

Tatterdemalion
The woman who calls herself Tatterdemalion has led a double life for many years. She has been a professional thief and spy for Fabricators Inc. For the last 15 years she’s been an
agent trying to infiltrate high-end social and political circles in an effort to obtain compromising material to create negative publicity, as well as for blackmail, often to exert influence
rather than monetary gain, and extortion. She has also served as a liaison for the organization’s diplomatic branch, delivering ultimatums and warnings to both clients and company
operatives. When she arrives, those under employment or have any dealings with Fabricators Inc are put on notice. If the company is not happy with their performance or they’ve
fail to provide services, reneged on their promise, or done something to compromise the company or its reputation in the underworld, Tatterdemalion shows up to convince them to
do otherwise, or else there will be consequences. She will engage in a variety of tactics, but she is not a cold-blood killer, but she does enjoy making people lives miserable. Four
years ago when Eagle Knight took out one of Fabricators Inc lesser used front companies, Fabricators decided to plant her in the organization as a spy to covertly manipulate others
(the player characters) to operate as an unofficial Fabricators Drop and Elimination Team. So far Tatterdemalion hasn’t done anything to truly sabotage the agency from within. While
her friendship with her teammates is genuine, she’s been told to use them on several occasions to serve the interests of Fabricators Inc. She has tried not to place more loyalty
toward one organization over the other, but she feels caught in the middle. Should the time come to make the ultimate decision in picking one side over the other, she is not entirely
sure what to do. She’ll just have to play it by ear until that moment arrives.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
New Wave
New Wave is a fun-loving, carefree, and friendly guy. He lives to enjoy life. He tends to hang out with Amulet, War Flyte, and Shimmer. Atom Lord and Metallica are too serious for
him. He has a gentle, though mischievous nature and is not above playing practical jokes. He reads comic books and science fiction and likes to sneak into super hero movie
theaters. He joined Eagle Knight because his parents wanted him to master his mutant abilities obtained after he dove into a swim pool that had been filled with an experimental
chemical to make possible to breathe underwater. New Wave enjoys practicing with his super abilities, but he really loved hanging around with Amulet who has a big crush on. He
wants to ask her out but doesn’t have the courage to do so. He can take on aliens, androids, and wizards, but asking Amulet out is intimidating. New Wave knows she likes to cook
so maybe that is his gateway into getting to know her on a more intimidate level. New Wave loves sports and being on the water, but in many ways he seeks out the pursuit of
pleasure as the most important thing in life. New Wave doesn’t mind a mixing it up with bad guys, but he rather take the money he using to go to college to get a degree and use it
indulge his insatiable hunger for all things pleasurable.
Real Name: Pete Mardon
Occupation: College Student and freelance members of Eagle Knight Security
Alignment: Unprincipled
Power Category: Mutant
Experience Level: 3rd level
Hit Points: 32 S.D.C.: 113/+100 underwater.
Armor Rating: Water Aura provides a NAR of 10 with 60 S.D.C.
P.P.E.: 21
Appearance: He is a good looking, muscular African-American college male with short black hair and dark brown eyes. His blue costume he wears has Bio-Aura incorporated
into it.
Attributes: I.Q. 28, M.E.12, M.A. 12 P.S. 17/24 underwater (extraordinary), P.P. 8, P.E. 15, P.B. 14, Spd. 14/70 (49 mph/78 km) underwater.
Age: 21, Sex: Male, Height: 6 foot and 2 inches (1.87 m), Weight: 180 lbs (81 kg).
Vulnerability: Necrophobia: New Wave is deathly afraid of seeing dead people. He will not attend a funeral. If someone dies while in combat or during a disaster and he sees it
happen that doesn’t bother him as much as coming upon a dead person. He is deathly afraid of zombies, ghouls, vampires and all undead things. He refuses to see such movies or
television programs. He really hates being in cemeteries and places where the dead are buried/kept.
Major Super Ability: Matter Expulsion: Liquid (Special).
Matter Expulsion: Liquid. The hero is able to condense the moisture in the air, ground, or from any organic material into water. The more moisture in the air (humidity), the
more abundant of water he can generate. Theoretically he has an almost unlimited supply of moisture at all times since it is always present in the surrounding air or environment
however places like the desert or high elevations require more concentration (half his actions per melee round) instead of one. He draws moisture from a 20 foot (6 m) area of
effect. If there is not enough moisture in the air, he can choose to draw in oxygen and hydrogen atoms to make water. The process does not release any by-products or unused
atoms.
1. Dehydration Attack: New Wave can draw moisture out of a living being causing them to become very hot very quickly, causing headache, disorientation, hot, dry skin, and
difficulty breathing. If the victim is not cooled off quickly (within 4D4 melees), the victim has a 01-60% of lapsing into a coma like unconsciousness. Those who fall into this coma
like state are subject to the normal survivability coma/death rules without any side effects. Those who fail to save coma/death will die. Range: Touch, Damage: Lose initiative,
reduce all skill and combat bonuses by one-half, lose two attacks per melee round, and reduce Spd by 70%. Failure to cool the victim down can result in unconsciousness. Saving
Throw: Roll a 14 or better using only P.E. attribute bonuses. A successful save results in immunity to the attack.
2. Hydro-Magnet: He can cause water in a 50 foot (15.2 m) radius, per level of experience to flow to him and keep coming, up to 100 gallons/378 liters (think two full
bathtubs of water) per level of experience, per melee round. The water starts to cover and soak a 20 foot (6.1 m) diameter around him. If in a room or vehicle that is not
water/airtight, it starts to fill up. If in a boat or a room on a boat, it starts to fill up, and depending on its size, could be in jeopardy of sinking. This is usually done to create panic
and confusion, chase people away, or dowse a fire, but depending on the circumstances, can sometimes be used to drown people and certainly to chase vampires away. Range: Self,
Attacks per Melee: Counts as two attack/action, a cost one attack action to maintain for up to 3 minutes per level of experience. Limitation: Water must be available; he cannot rely
on moisture in the air.
3. Water Aura: The power can be used to surround New Wave with an aura of water. The water envelops his entire body and is 6 inches (15.24 cm) thick however it provides
the same barrier as if the water was three feet (.9 m) deep. The water barrier provides a Natural Armor Rating of 10, however any melee or physical blunt attack that by-pass the
armor rating will still have its damage reduce by 70%. All attacks from high powered rifles (including a .50 caliber) are instantly negated and inflict no damage against the water
aura even if they by-pass the Natural Armor Rating. Projectiles from handguns and shot guns will inflict zero damage unless they are fired at point blank range (less than 10 feet/3
m) and will still have their damage reduced by one-half. Bladed, throwing, and projectile weapons have no problem penetrating the water aura and the Natural Armor Rating and
S.D.C. is ineffective. Energy attacks do full damage; however, fire and heat (plasma) attacks do half damage. Light/laser attacks inflict half damage. Explosions, high speed car
crashes, falls from great heights, and force bolts all have their damage reduced by 70%. S.D.C. Protection: The aura provides 30 S.D.C., plus 10 per level of experience. If
there is ample supply of moisture (water), the aura regenerates at a rate of 10 S.D.C. per melee and as long as the character is conscious (cost one action to maintain per melee
round). Once the S.D.C. of the aura is reduce to zero, the aura is gone and cannot be replenish for one hour. The S.D.C. of the water aura must be destroyed first in order to harm
New Wave, however bladed, throwing, and projectile weapons can ignore the NAR and S.D.C. of the water aura.
4. Hurl Water: New Wave can shoot a stream of water from his fingertips like a fire hose. This has a variety of uses, from damaging electronics to blinding opponents. Range;
30 feet (15.2 m)/60 feet (18.2 m) underwater, Duration: Instant, Damage: 1 S.D.C. point of damage, plus may blind temporarily (-4 to strike, parry, and dodge for 1D4 melee
rounds), Saving Throw: Dodge or parry, Bonus: +1 to strike, -2 to dodge underwater.
5. Water Jet: This is a much more powerful stream of water, like a high-pressure water jet. It’s strong enough to knock most people over, smash down a stone wall, wooden
door, or cut through soft materials. Range: 70 feet (21.3 m)/140 feet (42.6 m) underwater, Duration: Instant, Damage: 3D6. S.D.C., plus it’s very likely that they’ll be knocked
down. Opponents must roll a 14 or better to maintain their balance, Saving Throw: Parry or dodge, Bonus: +1 to strike, -2 to dodge underwater.
6. Water Punch. He can summon a small, whirling vortex of water around his fist from a nearby source of water or from the air itself and use it to slam into an opponent, 2D6
damage plus P.S. damage bonus. Range: Touch or 3 feet (0.9 m), Duration: One melee round, each punch counts as one melee attack. Attacks per Melee: Counts as one attack if an
available water source is nearby, counts as two attacks if need to draw water from the air. Bonus: -2 to dodge underwater.
7. Water Walk. New Wave can walk or run-on water as easily as if it was the ground. He doesn’t sink unless he wants to or is rendered unconscious. Reduce Spd by 25%
8. Water Affinity: New Wave can draw in oxygen from water. This enables him to remain submerged without air indefinitely. He retains his full vision underwater. He can slip in
and out of water without a sound or even making a splash. He can survive depths of up to 200 feet (61 m) without the aid of any special gear (Note: Power Combo.
Combined with his Underwater Abilities, he can survive pressure up to 3 miles (4.8 km) underwater.
Minor Super Abilities: Underwater Abilities, Impervious to Cold & Freezing, and Wave Rider.
Attacks per Melee: 5/6 (2 Initial +2 from Hand to Hand +1 from boxing) +1 underwater.
Combat Training: Basic
Combat Bonuses: +1 to strike/+2 underwater, +5 to parry/+7 underwater, +5 to dodge/+9 underwater, +2 to damage, +6 to roll with punch/fall, and +2 to pull punch.
Combat Skills: Punch 1D4, Power Punch 2D4 (counts as two attacks), Elbow/Forearm 1D6, Knee 1D6, Kick 2D4, Body Block/Tackle 1D4 (parry or dodge to avoid knockdown), Pin 18-

Hugeo
Hugeo is impulsive, hot tempered, quick to argue, but also quick to defend his friends and all the girls because he thinks all of them are fragile and weaker because…their girls after
all. Hugeo wants to make himself a better warrior. He practices a lot, but he can't seem to keep from doing dangerous or foolhardy stunts. He also seems to make lots of mistake
because he forgets just how big and strong he is. He has a habit of saying “utoh” a lot when he rips out an electric pole and takes out the power for over a 1000 people. Others like
New Wave and Shimmer help him deal with his miscalculations. He is always gets lectured by Albert Newton, Atom Lord, Pinpoint, and Metallica because they are quick to tell him
that he screwed up. He and Siberiad HATE each other. A fight typically breaks out between them if they ever stay in the room together long enough. Their animosity might even
stem from the fact he developed his powers after his tribe ate the preserved flesh of a Wholly Mammoth found frozen in the frozen wilderness. While the rest of his tribe died, he
developed strange mutant abilities. Rumor has it the DNA of a saber tooth tiger was injected into Siberiad when he was created in the lab. There does seem to be a predator and
prey rivalry between them. Furthermore, everything about Siberiad is unnatural and against nature. This might also be the reason he finds Cage, Metallica, and other cyborgs creepy
for him. Anyone who would want to bind metal to their body seems so wrong and against everything his family ever taught him about communing and bonding with the natural
world. Hugeo stays with Albert at his home and learns via home school and online. When he completes his schooling in few months, he can join Eagle Knight full time and start
getting his military training.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Gimmick
He and Night Howl share a lot in common. Gimmick’s parents were murdered because some “criminal organization” wanted to steal some invention of his father. They sent some
goons to try to intimidate his father. Gimmick ended up shooting one of them with his inventions. They went after him, and when his parents got in the way to stop them, the
villainess named Wicked Angel killed them. Gimmick managed to get away and took to living on the street, hiding from those villains who murdered his family. He was found and
mentored by Night Howl. Albert Newton recruited them both to Eagle Knight around the same time. While Night Howl likes to be a loner, Gimmick wants to slowly reintegrate back
into modern society and hang out with the girls like War Flyte (boy is she hot), Amulet, Hugeo, and New Wave. Albert has offered him a place to stay at his mansion, but Gimmick
still has troubling nightmares about what happened to his parents. When he does get a chance to hang out at Albert’s home or Eagle Knight HQ, he gets on the computer and starts
researching what he can find out about those villains. Besides Wicked Angel other members he found are Dark Light, Death Thoughts, and Cancel Fortune. He has yet to discover
whom they worked for or why they wanted his father technology, but he plans on getting even one day.

If I decide to post some NPCs I will create a separate post on the Fantasy board. But I will certainly tell everyone here if I choose to do so.

Agent Shroud
Marcus Hynton grew up in Motor City. He hated every moment he spent in the most crime riddled city in America (more so than Century Station) and the huge corruption brought on
by the organized crime-controlled government. As a teen he worked the streets working as an informant to help the police catch criminals but he learned even most of the cops were
on the take. After nearly getting killed, his handler a Sector agent promised to help him and his family out. The promise didn't come in time and Hynton family died when their house
exploded (gas line issue). Hynton escaped and disappeared with the Sector agent. Hynton was taken to Freedom, New Mexico where he finished high school and was given the
training of a Sector agent. He excelled in computers, street skills, and going under cover. But Hynton didn't trust the agency or its people. Before he could move on to the next phase
of his Sector training and education he left.
Hynton went to Gulf Coast City where he met a Natural Genius named Albert Newton. The two struck a friendship as they both shared the same passion of stopping criminals and
helping people. They created their own detective agency. A few weeks later, Hynton walked into the office and saw an android that looked just like Albert choking him. Hynton raised
his weapon but not before the robot fired his energy blast. Hynton awoke days later with no memory of the incident or anything that happened earlier that morning. However, he
began to uncover certain clues and some lost time. Albert finally sat him down and told him a few years ago he cloned himself and the clone didn't want to obey him and wanted to
extend its limited life expectancy. It paid someone (Fabricators Inc which neither man knows about) to transfer its replica Natural Genius mind into the body of a robot. That robot
went to the Central America nation of Malvador, home of Emperor Danielk and the Usurper. With the robot technology, mone, and the clone's natural genius mind it was given an
andorid body that looked just like Alberts. Calling itself Lord Bedlam it now worked for Danilek and Usurper as an arms dealer and weapon supplier. Lord Bedlam came here to gloat
and blasted Hynton and killed him. Albert desperate took blood from Hynton corpse and cloned him. He improved the Clone Physiology process so Hynton's clone would live just as
long as Hynton's original body's age. Albert then put Hynton's corpse into a preserving tank (just in case). Hynton retained his original personality and alignment, but he changed in
his disposition toward criminals. He was more willing to do whatever was necessary to put them down and he wanted super heroes held responsible if they went rogue or failed in
their efforts. Albert and Hynton decide to close their detective agency and joined up with Eagle Knight Security. Becaue of their leadership qualities they were made team leaders.
Hynton has been killed 12 additional times and Albert has cloned him again or taking genetic material from his original body (which only retains memories from the day he died,
requiring Hynton to relearn what has happened since then. Hynton has never told Albert to stop cloning him but he does feel every single time he is cloned and comes back from the
dead, he losses a piece of himself as a result, including important memories of his past and his own life. Hynton remains a member of Eagle Knight but he secretly has become a
member of THE JURY as one of its Enforcers. He doesn't tell Albert or any of the other members of his team this secret part of his life. One day he will have to decide which side he is
on and that could also mean he will finally decide he doesn't want to be cloned again should he die.

HUD display, giving him tactical knowledge during combat (Bonus: +2 to initiative, +1 to strike using any weapon including hand to hand combat, +1 to parry & dodge, and track up
to 10 opponents within a 60 foot/18.23 m range) and a +10% bonus to his knowledge/research-based skills. The sunglasses provide him X-Ray vision, night vision, and infrared
vision (Range: 1600 feet/487 m). The sunglasses give him voice print analysis, advance facial recognition technology (+15% bonus to see through disguises), and sound analysis
technology, which together give him a limited version of lie detection (Range: 10 feet/3 m). The sunglasses function as a $2000 smart phone/watch. Note: The clone will be able get
a spare pair of shades at his two storage units.
Hynton’s Crime Lab: Hynton’s crime lab features multi-million dollars in equipment including microscopes, magnifying glasses, jeweler’s tools/lenses, ICP-MS Instrument,
light board, DNA sequencer, video spectral comparator, omnichrone camera, automated fingerprint identification system (AFIS), a digital unit to handle digital photographs and data
retrieved from computers and personal electronics. He has digital units to analyze voice-print spectrographs from telephoned or tape-recorded threats or messages. He has a
chemical analysis lab, refrigerator unit, electrical facilities, high end 3-D printers, various size digital cameras, and other stuff. Hynton has two storage units containing pretty much
any tactical, optical, surveillance, communication, sensory, photography/video equipment/gear he might need. Hynton owns a black 1968 Dodge Charger (Soup-Up vehicle).
The center piece of Hynton’s crime lab is a supercomputer whose specs are on par with any of those used by the FBI and GIGMA; it permits global surveillance and also
connects to a massive information network as well as storing vast amounts of information, both on various super beings (heroes and villains). A series of satellite link-ups allows easy
access to Canada, Great Britain, Israel, and Australian SCRET’s information network. The super computer and the sunglasses are protected against unauthorized access, and any
attempt to breach this security immediately sends an alert to Hynton and his unnamed ally in The Jury.
Marcus Hynton grew up in Motor City. He hated every moment he spent in the most crime riddled city in America (more so than Century Station) and the huge corruption brought on
by the organized crime-controlled government. As a teen he worked the streets working as an informant to help the police catch criminals but he learned even most of the cops were
on the take. After nearly getting killed, his handler a Sector agent promised to help him and his family out. The promise didn't come in time and Hynton family died when their house
exploded (gas line issue). Hynton escaped and disappeared with the Sector agent. Hynton was taken to Freedom, New Mexico where he finished high school and was given the
training of a Sector agent. He excelled in computers, street skills, and going under cover. But Hynton didn't trust the agency or its people. Before he could move on to the next phase
of his Sector training and education he left.
Hynton went to Gulf Coast City where he met a Natural Genius named Albert Newton. The two struck a friendship as they both shared the same passion of stopping criminals and
helping people. They created their own detective agency. A few weeks later, Hynton walked into the office and saw an android that looked just like Albert choking him. Hynton raised
his weapon but not before the robot fired his energy blast. Hynton awoke days later with no memory of the incident or anything that happened earlier that morning. However, he
began to uncover certain clues and some lost time. Albert finally sat him down and told him a few years ago he cloned himself and the clone didn't want to obey him and wanted to
extend its limited life expectancy. It paid someone (Fabricators Inc which neither man knows about) to transfer its replica Natural Genius mind into the body of a robot. That robot
went to the Central America nation of Malvador, home of Emperor Danielk and the Usurper. With the robot technology, mone, and the clone's natural genius mind it was given an
andorid body that looked just like Alberts. Calling itself Lord Bedlam it now worked for Danilek and Usurper as an arms dealer and weapon supplier. Lord Bedlam came here to gloat
and blasted Hynton and killed him. Albert desperate took blood from Hynton corpse and cloned him. He improved the Clone Physiology process so Hynton's clone would live just as
long as Hynton's original body's age. Albert then put Hynton's corpse into a preserving tank (just in case). Hynton retained his original personality and alignment, but he changed in
his disposition toward criminals. He was more willing to do whatever was necessary to put them down and he wanted super heroes held responsible if they went rogue or failed in
their efforts. Albert and Hynton decide to close their detective agency and joined up with Eagle Knight Security. Becaue of their leadership qualities they were made team leaders.
Hynton has been killed 12 additional times and Albert has cloned him again or taking genetic material from his original body (which only retains memories from the day he died,
requiring Hynton to relearn what has happened since then. Hynton has never told Albert to stop cloning him but he does feel every single time he is cloned and comes back from the
dead, he losses a piece of himself as a result, including important memories of his past and his own life. Hynton remains a member of Eagle Knight but he secretly has become a
member of THE JURY as one of its Enforcers. He doesn't tell Albert or any of the other members of his team this secret part of his life. One day he will have to decide which side he is
on and that could also mean he will finally decide he doesn't want to be cloned again should he die.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Lord Bedlam
Lord Bedlam was created when Albert Newton needed to complete an important experiment but he also need to leave to finish an important mission. So he cloned himself and told
himself to stay and finish the experiment. Albert failed to realize the clone was not a servant but an exact replica of himself and he didn’t like being told what to do. His clone was
him. His memories did not know or consider the importance of the experiment so he left to explore the city. Later, he came back to the lab and began to realize he only had a few
days left to live. This wasn’t fairs so he had to find a way to extend his life. He fled and found a way to meet a Fabricator Inc liaison. Paying over 3 million dollars, the clone had his
mind transferred into a robot body. He then fled the country and went to Malvador to meet Emperor Danilek and the Usurper (doesn’t realize they’re two different people). With the
Emperor’s assistance and robotic technology, the clone made an android body of himself and gave himself the name Lord Bedlam. He now works for the two individuals as the
Malvador arms dealer and weapon seller. He also operates his own missions on the side, making him an international super villain and terrorist. His existence is Albert Newton’s dirty
little secret. The two communicate covertly to each other every so often about what they are doing. Lord Bedlam “loves” and “loathes” Albert and Albert feels the same way. Despite
their hatred for each other, they share a strange father/son connection, often coming toward each other assistance should the need arrive.

Motion Detector (60 feet/18.2 m), and Touch Sensing System (identical to normal human touch).
SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) GEAR: Enables to him to send or receive radio or cell phone frequencies. It can monitor specific frequencies, or scan though a range of
frequencies for a specific signal. Once the signal has been found, a radio directional finder will attempt to track the signal to its source (88%).
Secure Radio: Encrypted radio/cellular transmissions. Must use Electronic Countermeasures in order to intercept his transmissions, and even than it’s a –25% penalty.
SatCome Radio: Receive and transmit satellite, radio, cellular broadcasts with any military and/or civilian satellites: Range: World Wide Communications.]
ECU (Electromagnetic Containment/Control, this is what houses his mind/brain wave. A.R.: 16, S.D.C.: 200. It is located in his chest. It’s the size of a postage stamp. One
would have to have the skill Robotics Engineering or Robotics Electronics to know is approximate location. Lord Bedlam. Destroying his body does not necessarily destroy Lord Bedlam
because his modified electromagnetic containment control unit allows him too wirelessly (remotely) access and corrupt any computer network and access the Internet at any point in
time (maximum range 50 feet/15.24 m). He need only make his way through hard lines (wired telephones and TV cables) as well as television waves, cell phones, radio waves,
microwaves, and similar transmissions. Destroy his body and his mind moves on until he arrives at one of the many duplicates of his android body anywhere in the world!
Special Operating Systems and Misc: Underwater Capabilities, Flotation Device (self-activated), Artificial Liquid System (blood, saliva, sweat, etc), Internal Food/Liquid
Processor (functions like a humanoid digestive system, even produces waste products-feces), Artificial Heart, Lungs, and Kidneys (similar to those use in cyborgs, but in reality do
nothing for him, however they work good enough to fool a cardiologist or basic life support equipment (one can even feel a pulse in random places in his body) at 90%, Realistic Eyes
and Sculpted Facial Features. Superior Cosmetic Enhancements (however his appearance make him obviously look metallic. Self Repair Micro-Robots (special), this million dollar
system allows him repair himself almost immediately after being damaged. A unit installed with miniature repair robots is housed in each of his extremities as well as his torso. When
he takes damage (not his battle armor), the repair system sends out the little robots and they begin to fix the damage. Each unit of nanobots can only fix 20 S.D.C. of damage, but
he has ten systems capable of completely repairing him up to 200 S.D.C. worth of repairs. After each robot does it 20 S.D.C. or repairs it will not function (there are no more
materials in them), and they must be replenished in Malvador at the cost $2,000, or he can be released them into the armored plating of another robot or military (soup-up) vehicles
to gather supplies. The latter method requires 2 hours of salvage time for the robots to gather and process the materials, and the materials must come from a structure with an A.R.
at least equal or greater than his own. Once the process is finished, the unit can again repair 20 S.D.C. of damage. Repair units will disperse across his body if they are able (the limb
housing is for space and coverage purposes) and more than one unit can replenish itself at a time.
Armor Rating (A.R.): 10
S.D.C. by location:
Hands (2)-20 each
Arms (2)-25 each
Legs (2)-45 each
* Head-30
** Main Body-225
* A difficult target to strike. An attacker must make a called shot to hit and even then its –2 to strike. Destroying the head of the robot will eliminate all optics and sensory system.
The robot will shut down as s safety feature. The eyes are even a smaller target requiring a called shot to hit with a –4 to strike. Destroying his head does not damage the ECU its
located in his chest (size of a postage stamp).
** Depleting the S.D.C. of the main body will effectively destroy his body, shutting it down completely and making it useless. However, his nanobots will work to repair the damage,
or he can simply use his ECU to transfer his consciousness via wirelessly (make a satellite or cell phone call) or by direct contact with a hard line.
Robotic Weapons:
Hand Blaster (both). Finger laser in each hand, can be used as a cutting tool or weapon. When firing more than one finger blaster simultaneously at one target, use the
robot volley rules. Range: 500 feet (152 m), Damage: 1 point, 1D4, 1D6, or 2D6. Using all five fingers-5 points, 5D4, 6D6, or 10D6 or 1D6x10, Energy Capacity: Unlimited, Rate of
Fire: Each shot counts as one melee attack, More than one finger is a volley and still counts as a single attack, Bonus: +1 to strike.
Eye Lasers (2), Range: 500 feet (152 m), Damage: 4D6, Rate of Fire: Single shot, Payload: 20 shots per hour maximum, Bonus: +3 to strike.
Two Retractable Vibro Sabres, sheathed in both forearms, 5D6 each.
Two FW- 170 Air Densifier Barrier Shield Wrist Band (built into forearms). The devices fires an energy pulse which temporarily densifies air molecules effectively creating
an area of “hard” air or a force field-like barrier as big as 4 feet (1.2 m) or one foot (0.3 m) in diameter. The barrier is completely invisible and cannot be moved from the spot where
it was created. After two (2) full melee rounds (30 seconds) the barrier dissipates. These instant barriers can be used to deflect physical assaults, such as thrown weapons, bullets, or
help absorb the impact of a small explosion. Energy attacks (including particle beams, plasma, ion, force, fire blasts, electricity, and most others will also impact on the solidified air.
Lasers/light beams go right through (as well as sound waves and vibrations) and inflict full damage! The barrier is also good for momentarily blocking small openings like windows,
portholes, and normal size doors. Range: Up to 12 feet (3.6 m), Duration: 2 melee rounds (30 seconds), Barrier S.D.C.: 50, E-clip Capacity: 6 Barriers. Recharges one every 4 hours
(solar powered).
Lord Bedlam was created when Albert Newton needed to complete an important experiment but he also need to leave to finish an important mission. So he cloned himself and told
himself to stay and finish the experiment. Albert failed to realize the clone was not a servant but an exact replica of himself and he didn’t like being told what to do. His clone was
him. His memories did not know or consider the importance of the experiment so he left to explore the city. Later, he came back to the lab and began to realize he only had a few
days left to live. This wasn’t fairs so he had to find a way to extend his life. He fled and found a way to meet a Fabricator Inc liaison. Paying over 3 million dollars, the clone had his
mind transferred into a robot body. He then fled the country and went to Malvador to meet Emperor Danilek and the Usurper (doesn’t realize they’re two different people). With the
Emperor’s assistance and robotic technology, the clone made an android body of himself and gave himself the name Lord Bedlam. He now works for the two individuals as the
Malvador arms dealer and weapon seller. He also operates his own missions on the side, making him an international super villain and terrorist. His existence is Albert Newton’s dirty
little secret. The two communicate covertly to each other every so often about what they are doing. Lord Bedlam “loves” and “loathes” Albert and Albert feels the same way. Despite
their hatred for each other, they share a strange father/son connection, often coming toward each other assistance should the need arrive.

can recharge lost S.D.C. at a rate of three (3) per minute. Limited to protecting the wearer of the armor only, the field cannot be expanded to cover a larger area. Force Field
Payload: 12 hours of use before the battery needs recharging. Note: Double Armor Rules apply. Combat rolls below Battle Armor A.R. effect the battle armor S.D.C., modified combat
rolls over 15 cause his robot body no damage, unmodified combat rolls over 15 cause him only one-third normal damage.
Equipment & Vehicles: Any conventional ground or air vehicle found in the country of Malvador as well as access to any ground or air vehicle available from Fabricators Inc
which includes Soup-Up spy vehicles to those belonging to Super Soldiers.

Power Supply: Super-Solar Engine (includes a superior energy storage unit that can hold 14 hours worth of power). His emergency reserve has a six-hour storage capacity.
When it engages, he immediately falls asleep, but he does not shut down completely, he can be awakened but functions only at one-half his normal abilities. The moment he is
exposed to solar (photon) energy, he will return to normal fully energized.
Leaping: 20 feet (6 m) up or lengthwise. A jet thruster assisted leap can propel him up to 100 feet (30.5 m) high and 200 feet (61 m) across without actually attaining flight.
Flight: The micro rocket propulsion systems (feet) enable him to hover stationary up to 1000 feet (305 m; 50 feet/15.2 m with no wings) or fly. Maximum flying speed is 120
mph (193.2 km/h), but cruising speed is considered 70 mph (112.7 km/h). The flying range is a mere ten minutes. Afterwards the system starts to overheat, causing the micro
thrusters and sensor systems to burn out within 2D6 minutes: require replacement of parts to get to work again.
Legs: Two Humanoid. Speed 28 mph (45 km).
Arms & Hands: Two Humanoid; Robotic/Superhuman P.S. 30, P.P. 24
Audio System: Basic Listening System (no difference between it and normal hearing), Human Voice Synthesizer (sounds just like Albert Newton), and Wide Band Radio
Receiver and Transmitter.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
PSIA
Psia was an experimental chimpanzee created at Genetech, one of subsidiary companies for BIO-Spawn, to evolve a primate embryo into a Homo Sapien. Psia's chimpanzee mother
gave birth to a baby human infant. A month later, her mother refuse to have anything more to do with her. Psia was taken out of the cage and given over to Genetech scientists to
raise. Weeks later, an infant Psia started demonstrating the ability to send out thought waves that altered people’s perception, and eventually drove every scientist who tried to raise
her insane. Eventually Doctor Feral arrived and took Psia to his lab to raise and experiment on. He managed to dampen her power by the use of a headband, which made her
harmless and controllable. He returned Psia to Genetech where she spent her childhood being studied and tested until she was freed by people involved in FFARM (Fight For Animal
Rights and Mortality). One of the members Collin Lambert convinced her to use her powers to drive millions of people insane, via a broadcasting signal. This plan would have
succeeded, if not for the Totally Cool Animals revealing to her that not all humans where evil and deserve to suffer. Psia had a change in heart, especially when she learned Collin had
tinkered with her power-dampening headband in order to give himself psychic abilities. Psia turned her mental powers on him and put him in catatonic state. Before the TCA had the
opportunity to take Psia to a division of the Mutant Underground, she was rescued by the Fabricators Inc. Damon Lazaris took her under his wing, treating her like his ward and
daughter. She will do anything to please him.
Psia/ Psychoa is now one of Fabricators Inc Eliminators, part assassin/enforcer. She takes care of any “problems” which may compromise the organization or soil its reputation in
the underworld. She will track down, capture or kill traitors, spies, thieves, blackmailers, troublemakers and enemies. Whomever she is told to kill by Damon will end up dead or
catatonic. Patti has convinced herself she is a “human being” who has been injected with chimpanzee DNA. She will not reveal the truth to anyone. She is slowly growing bitter about
being cheated out of a normal life. She takes her anger out on others except for her father (Damon) and her friend Cancel Fortune (aka Tatterdemalion).
Alias: Patti Cross, Psychoa
Occupation: Escape scientific experiment
Alignment: Aberrant
Power Category: Mega Psychic Mutant Animal
Experience Level: 4th
Hit Points: 24 S.D.C.: 60
P.P.E.: 30
Appearance: Psia looks like a 11-year human girl with her high cheekbones, vivid blue eyes and thick auburn hair. There is no doubt in a few years she will grow up to be a
tall, graceful, and attractive human female. There is nothing about her appearance to suggest she is a mutant chimpanzee.
Attributes: I.Q. 25, M.E. 25, M.A.14, P.S. 18, P.P. 13, P.E. 11, P.B. 16, Spd. 12.
Age: 11, Sex: Female, Height: 5 foot (1.52 m), Weight: 90 lbs (40.5 kg)
Vulnerabilities: Diet: Strict Vegetarian and Nearsightedness (4 feet/1.21 m) of clarity, 5-21 feet (1.5 to 6.4 m) is blurry, cannot see beyond 21 feet (6.4 m). She has to wear
her glasses in order to see. She has them strapped to her face whenever possible.
Mutant Powers: Advance Touch, Extra I.Q, and Extra M.E.
Psionics: Empathy, Mind Trap (one action to trigger or maintain simple fantasy, all actions for complex fantasy), Hypnotic Suggestion, Telepathic Transmission, Telepathic
Listening, and Bio-Manipulation Pain & Stun. Note: The range of all her psychic powers is increased by 50%.
Psionic Combos: Reality Warp (special). Psia has a very powerful form of Mind Trap that can be used on as many as four people simultaneously. She can distort the
perception of reality. All who are within 20 feet (6.1 m) of her whenever she engages in combat must save vs psionics or become confused and disoriented as all their sensory
perceptions begin to bend, twist, and swirl around. Those who fail have all their combat bonuses, Spd, and skill proficiencies reduce by one-half. Victims also lose their initiative and
one melee attack. All attempts to concentrate and focus will fail due to the disorienting nature of the mind attack. Its effects last for 2D6 minutes. Attacks per Melee: Use up half of
her actions to trigger.
Hypnotic Suggestion/Mind Trap: A unique combination of Mind Trap and Hypnotic Suggestion to make her enemies betray one another. She can uses Mind Trap to make the
victim sees his friend as his greatest enemy. At the same time, she uses Hypnotic Suggestion to tell the victim, “You have a chance to crush your greatest enemy! Do so!” She can
use both psionic powers simultaneously (requiring only one saving throw), but she must sacrifice one attack per round to keep up the illusion, and can only use it on one person at a
time. To maintain the fantasy cost all her attacks per melee round.
Mind Trap/Bio-Manipulation: Pain. She has learned how to combine her Mind Trap with her Bio-Manipulation: Pain. The result is her victims have a -5 to save against the mind
trap illusion, because the pain involved in the experience is real, not imaginary. Attacks per Melee: Use up all attacks for the melee (cannot move, fight or speak). To maintain a
simply fantasy only cost 2 attacks per melee, complex fantasy uses all her attacks per melee round (cannot fight, speak, or move).
Mind Trap/Telepathic Transmission: She can cause the damage that characters suffer in the psionic fantasy of the Mind Trap to do actual physical damage to the victim! For
every 8 points of damage in the fantasy, there will be 1 actual point of hit point/S.D.C. damage. Attacks per Melee: Simple fantasy cost 2 attacks/action per melee round, complex
fantasy use up all attacks for the melee (cannot move, fight or speak).
Combat Training: Basic
Attacks per Melee: 5 (2 initial + 3 from Hand to Hand)

Psia was an experimental chimpanzee created at Genetech, one of subsidiary companies for BIO-Spawn, to evolve a primate embryo into a Homo Sapien. Psia's chimpanzee mother
gave birth to a baby human infant. A month later, her mother refuse to have anything more to do with her. Psia was taken out of the cage and given over to Genetech scientists to
raise. Weeks later, an infant Psia started demonstrating the ability to send out thought waves that altered people’s perception, and eventually drove every scientist who tried to raise
her insane. Eventually Doctor Feral arrived and took Psia to his lab to raise and experiment on. He managed to dampen her power by the use of a headband, which made her
harmless and controllable. He returned Psia to Genetech where she spent her childhood being studied and tested until she was freed by people involved in FFARM (Fight For Animal
Rights and Mortality). One of the members Collin Lambert convinced her to use her powers to drive millions of people insane, via a broadcasting signal. This plan would have
succeeded, if not for the Totally Cool Animals revealing to her that not all humans where evil and deserve to suffer. Psia had a change in heart, especially when she learned Collin had
tinkered with her power-dampening headband in order to give himself psychic abilities. Psia turned her mental powers on him and put him in catatonic state. Before the TCA had the
opportunity to take Psia to a division of the Mutant Underground, she was rescued by the Fabricators Inc. Damon Lazaris took her under his wing, treating her like his ward and
daughter. She will do anything to please him.
Psia/ Psychoa is now one of Fabricators Inc Eliminators, part assassin/enforcer. She takes care of any “problems” which may compromise the organization or soil its reputation in
the underworld. She will track down, capture or kill traitors, spies, thieves, blackmailers, troublemakers and enemies. Whomever she is told to kill by Damon will end up dead or
catatonic. Patti has convinced herself she is a “human being” who has been injected with chimpanzee DNA. She will not reveal the truth to anyone. She is slowly growing bitter about
being cheated out of a normal life. She takes her anger out on others except for her father (Damon) and her friend Cancel Fortune (aka Tatterdemalion).

Hit Points: 24 S.D.C.: 60

Appearance: Psia looks like a 11-year human girl with her high cheekbones, vivid blue eyes and thick auburn hair. There is no doubt in a few years she will grow up to be a
tall, graceful, and attractive human female. There is nothing about her appearance to suggest she is a mutant chimpanzee.
Attributes: I.Q. 25, M.E. 25, M.A.14, P.S. 18, P.P. 13, P.E. 11, P.B. 16, Spd. 12.

Vulnerabilities: Diet: Strict Vegetarian and Nearsightedness (4 feet/1.21 m) of clarity, 5-21 feet (1.5 to 6.4 m) is blurry, cannot see beyond 21 feet (6.4 m). She has to wear
her glasses in order to see. She has them strapped to her face whenever possible.
Mutant Powers: Advance Touch, Extra I.Q, and Extra M.E.
Psionics: Empathy, Mind Trap (one action to trigger or maintain simple fantasy, all actions for complex fantasy), Hypnotic Suggestion, Telepathic Transmission, Telepathic
Listening, and Bio-Manipulation Pain & Stun. Note: The range of all her psychic powers is increased by 50%.
Psionic Combos: Reality Warp (special). Psia has a very powerful form of Mind Trap that can be used on as many as four people simultaneously. She can distort the
perception of reality. All who are within 20 feet (6.1 m) of her whenever she engages in combat must save vs psionics or become confused and disoriented as all their sensory
perceptions begin to bend, twist, and swirl around. Those who fail have all their combat bonuses, Spd, and skill proficiencies reduce by one-half. Victims also lose their initiative and
one melee attack. All attempts to concentrate and focus will fail due to the disorienting nature of the mind attack. Its effects last for 2D6 minutes. Attacks per Melee: Use up half of
her actions to trigger.
Hypnotic Suggestion/Mind Trap: A unique combination of Mind Trap and Hypnotic Suggestion to make her enemies betray one another. She can uses Mind Trap to make the
victim sees his friend as his greatest enemy. At the same time, she uses Hypnotic Suggestion to tell the victim, “You have a chance to crush your greatest enemy! Do so!” She can
use both psionic powers simultaneously (requiring only one saving throw), but she must sacrifice one attack per round to keep up the illusion, and can only use it on one person at a
time. To maintain the fantasy cost all her attacks per melee round.
Mind Trap/Bio-Manipulation: Pain. She has learned how to combine her Mind Trap with her Bio-Manipulation: Pain. The result is her victims have a -5 to save against the mind
trap illusion, because the pain involved in the experience is real, not imaginary. Attacks per Melee: Use up all attacks for the melee (cannot move, fight or speak). To maintain a
simply fantasy only cost 2 attacks per melee, complex fantasy uses all her attacks per melee round (cannot fight, speak, or move).
Mind Trap/Telepathic Transmission: She can cause the damage that characters suffer in the psionic fantasy of the Mind Trap to do actual physical damage to the victim! For
every 8 points of damage in the fantasy, there will be 1 actual point of hit point/S.D.C. damage. Attacks per Melee: Simple fantasy cost 2 attacks/action per melee round, complex
fantasy use up all attacks for the melee (cannot move, fight or speak).

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Lord Sinister is finally here, his henchmen are coming.
Lord Sinister
Darzen-Vin was an admiral in the Arismal military space program. He served with distinction and supported the cause of finding them a new planet to call home. As the
commander on board one of the remaining battleships, he communicated with the other leaders, sharing with them his thoughts and ideas. He wanted to explore a particular section
of the Ilta Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy, but he couldn’t convince the others Admiral to follow his hunch. They had heard stories about ships that went into this sector of space
never to be seen again. There existed no charts or anything reference. Darzen said he would take a vote with his command staff. If they voted against the idea, he would forget about
it. If they agreed with him though, their ship would depart at once and report back if they found a suitable planet. If they didn’t find anything, he would bring the ship back to the
fleet and give up his command. The other admirals agreed. However, Darzen lied and never allowed the vote to occur. He ordered the ship to leave from the fleet. They jump to light
speed and left the Arismal fleet behind. Hours later they arrived at the sector Darzen-Vin was convinced the suitable planet found in an unusual binary star system, but that planet
turned out to be a Demon Planet. It attacked the battleship, crippling the ship. Darzen used an escape pod to flee the ship, but it got caught in the gravity of a dwarf planet
orbiting one of the two stars. The battleship meanwhile crashed against the surface of the Demon Planet where it absorbed the life energy (P.P.E.) from everyone on the ship who
died. Darzen fled his escape pod looking for shelter. He saw a cave and went inside. Minutes later, a stalactite dropped from the ceiling and impaled him in shoulder. The moment it
did he clutched his head, shrieked, then collapsed.
Minutes later he awoke to find himself in a strange crystal cave. He started exploring the cave when he realized the crystal stalactite and a stalagmite were actually living
creatures. He fled from the cave. Look up he saw the Demon Planet only know it was being confronted by the Arismal Fleet. Even the Demon Planet was no match for the Arismal
Fleet and it disappeared. A rescue ship landed on the moon and started searching for survivors having spotted Darzen escape pod. He approached two soldiers, so glad to see them,
they drew weapons upon him. He had no choice but to defend himself. He also realized he feed upon their psychic energy the moment he killed them with newly acquired psychic
abilities. Darzen went to their ship, powered it up, and fled at once. He ignored the transmission from the other Arismal Battleships. Looking into a mirror, he realized why the soldiers
attacked him. He’d been transformed into a monster and he had a strange blue gemstone in the center of his forehead. Try as he might, he couldn’t remove it.
His single ship got pulled into a dimensional anomaly created by the fleeing Demon Planet, sending him through a dimensional syphon. His ship out of control was spat out a
gravity well located just inside the planet Jupiter’s orbit. Damaged beyond repair, Darzen did his best to pilot the ship toward the only planet with humanoid life on the surface, the
third one closest to the sun. He entered Earth atmosphere when the engines of the craft gave out. He managed to maintain control of the ship piloting it until he was able to perform
a controlled crash-landing. The ship was now in a remote location in the state of Kansas in the United States of America.
Darzen was amazed he was for the most unharmed. When he opened the doors to the craft, he was immediately blinded by sunlight and his skin blistered. He waited until
nightfall then ventured out onto this alien world. He wandered until he saw a farm and a large barn. He took shelter inside and went to sleep. Hours later he was awoken by 17 year
old Amelia Kramer. She was not frightened by him. The moment he laid eyes on her, he grew feverish with desire. She was humanoid and very attractive, and she possessed
something he hunger for. He tried to feed on her psychic energy, but she resisted him with ease. He felt the “need” to take her by force, but the sunlight coming into the barn blinded
him and hurt his skin. She closed the barn doors and threw a horse blanket over him. She then talked to him via telepathic transmission. He was amazed. She was a natural psychic
and she wasn’t frightened by his appearance. She told him to stay put and she would keep him safe. Hours later when night feel she went to see him again. He told her that he
hungered was insatiable. That if he could just have a little of her psychic energy, he would be alright. She agreed but just a little. Darzen took just enough to satisfy the parasite. She
then provided him some background and information about his location. He then told her a little about himself. After a while she left the barn and told him to stay put, she would keep
her father distracted. That night he felt strong enough to leave, not wanting to trouble the girl and her father. As he came out of the barn, he gasped as he saw the house go up in
flames and Amelia running out to meet him with a suitcase. “Come on,” she said. “We have to run away from here.” They did eventually seeking shelter in the back of semi-trailer.
Later she used her “Mind Fry” (Alter Personality) turning him into their personal slave. He would drive them around, occasionally stopping for gas, bathroom breaks, and food for her.
As the days passed, Amelia taught Darzen about earth and helped him learn about his newly developed psychic powers. Some day the truck would stop and they would go to libraries
and museums to help him learn about Earth’s history, its culture, and its place in the Milky Way galaxy. After a while, Darzen changed the roles of their relationship, becoming the
dominant one, not that she seem to mind.
After several weeks of traveling, they left the truck driver slave (dead alongside the road) and made a life for themselves in Victory City. The more Darzen learned about Earth,
the more he wanted to dominate the humans inhabiting it. The image of the Demon Planet stayed in his mind and he wanted to be just like it. He saw himself practically invincible,
that he could accomplish anything he set his mind towards. With Amerlia help, he used the Mutant Underground to find and recruit other super being, training them the discipline and
fighting techniques of the Arismal Space Infantry. They now serve as his body guard and minions, obeying his orders and carrying out his various schemes. His plan is to find a way to
enslave the all humanity, to give himself a constant food source to feed him symbiote so he might be granted unlimited power. He is always looking for super heroes/villains that he
can capture, imprison, and use them as constant P.P.E. source (a bowl of fruit on the table) to keep as his P.P.E. source and sustain his psychic powers. Lord Sinister is cold,
calculating, and tends to think his actions through before acting on them. He is a natural leader with keen eyes for strategy, tactics, and deception. He likes to develop intricate plans
and always has several contingencies within those plans. Unfortunately, Darzen doesn’t recognize that his ambition to rule over humanity nothing more than complex dressing to find
a way to sustain the Psyphire Symbiote/Parasite into giving him a sustainable source of psychic power. What Darzen fails to realize is by doing so, the Psyphire doesn’t need its Host
anymore. It will detach itself from his skull and enjoy everlasting psychic energy. Darzen is nothing more than a meat-puppet for a mollusk (slug) that cannot move around or defend
itself without sustaining damage. If he could recognize this fact, that he could simply live off the I.S.P. and affection he receives from Amerlia, he would not have to resort to
kidnapping other super beings and psychics, or try to come up with a mean of giving himself vast control over large populations of humans. The delusions of the Demon Planet are
actual broadcast of hunger from the slug. Darzen cannot conceive what his purpose in life has become, such arrogance is why also his plan ultimate fail, and the path he has set for
himself with eventually lead to his own destruction, which unfortunately will involve everyone around him and possibly tens of thousands.

Age: 90, Sex: Male, Height: 6 foot and 6 inches (1.98 m), Weight: 285 lbs (128 kg),
Originating Alien Environment: Twilight World.
Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote: Hit Points: 28, A.R.: 14. See below.
Mega-Abilities: All normal Mega-Abilities plus Undead. Note: The range of all his psionic powers, and those he receives from the Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote are increased by
50%. Note: He does not recover spent I.S.P. like a normal psychic (sleep or meditation). He must steal his P.P.E./I.S.P. to get it back. See below.
Natural Abilities: Like all Arismal, Lord Sinister has natural nightvision, however its range has been enhanced 900 feet (274 m) and he has sensitive hearing (20 decibels
beyond normal human range). He can operate at full efficiency for 48 hours straight without rest or sleep. Bio-Regenerates 2D6 S.D.C/Hit Points per melee round. He can regenerate
lost limbs and organs (except the head) within 1D4 days. He can leap 20 feet (6.1 m) high and lengthwise. He suffers no damage from normal punches and kicks (melee attacks), but
similar Extraordinary, Superhuman and Supernatural Strength attacks inflict half damage. Normal weapons (sword, club, etc.), bullets and explosions do half damage—fire, sonic
blast, and energy attacks (from technology, magic, or super abilities) do half damage. No longer needs to eat food or breathe air. Does not age and is immortal unless destroyed
completely.
P.P.E. Vampire: Every 24 hours, the Psyphire Parasite needs to feed on 20 P.P.E. to sustain itself and 10 additional P.P.E. for the Host to be able to utilize its psychic abilities
(access it’s I.S.P) for the next 24 hours. The Host has to feed the parasite first if he wants to use any psychic power or be granted any abilities for that day. The parasite is a glutton
and will devour as much P.P.E. as available. Lord Sinister can drain enough P.P.E. to convert to his maximum reservoir (262 I.SP.) and utilize that I.S.P. however he wishes to spend it.
However, he cannot rest, meditate, or sleep to recover spent I.S.P. The only way he can recover I.S.P. is to keep feeding on living things (P.P.E./I.S.P. drain). When Lord Sinister
reaches his maximum potential, he has to remember that none of this I.S.P. belongs to him, it ALL call comes from the Psyphire Parasite. He doesn’t possess any I.S.P. of his own.
Once 24 hours passes from the time of the initial feeding of 20 P.P.E., any surplus I.S.P. he has gained (even if he just super charged himself 5 minutes before, instantly dissipates! He
must then start over again, giving the creature its initial 20 P.P.E. and then 10 P.P.E. in order to start accumulating I.S.P. for himself. If he goes into battle using his powers, he
“believes” he has to have a sustainable source of P.P.E. in order to keep fuelings his powers, which is the actual reason the Slayers exist, so he quick snatch willing P.P.E. from them. If
he reduces his I.S.P., pool to zero within the 24 hours he has feed, it doesn’t both the Psyphire Parasite, its initial hunger has been satisfied, but he will need more I.S.P. to continue
the fight, which he must get from other living beings either draining their P.P.E./I.S.P via psionic attack (see below) or killing them and then taking it (P.P.E. is doubled at the moment
of death, but only briefly).
Stealing psychic energy: Range: 20 foot (6 m) radius. I.S.P.: Nothing. The stealing of potential psychic energy from living beings is painless and harmless (unless you’re a
mage or psychic who needs the P.P.E./I.S.P. to fuel their magic and/or psionic powers). Everyone in the effective range must make a successful saving throw vs psionic attack (15 or
better, 12 for minor/Latent psychics, 10 for Natural/Master Psychics). This psionic attack only cost one action to perform and can be done equal to Lord Sinister’s number of attack per
melee round. Those who successful save Lord Sinister, he cannot get any P.P.E/I.S.P. from that single attack, but he can always try again and again. A failed save mean Lord Sinister
can steal up to 20 I.S.P. or 5 P.P.E. from that specific person (1 P.P.E. equals 4 I.S.P.). As mentioned earlier, he can do this to multiple people within the effective range. Those who fail
temporarily lose the P.P.E./I.S.P. as if he/she used their psionic powers or cast magic. A person can willingly offers his or her I.S.P./P.P.E., up to 70% of their own reservoir. This does
require a roll to save vs psionic attack, the energy is automatically stolen: this is often the case with his Slayers. P.P.E. is not used to fuel super abilities (unless magically powered) so
if he drains an alien, experiment, mutant, etc to zero P.P.E. they can still function and use their powers as if nothing happened.
Normal humans have 2D6 P.P.E. Average child (12 and under) 5D6 P.P.E., Teenagers between 12-18 year old will have 6D6 + P.E. attribute number. The average super being also
has 6D6 P.P.E., unless he or she is psychic or has magical abilities. Lord Sinister cannot steal P.P.E. from talismans or non-living sources. He also cannot steal P.P.E. from ley lines or
nexus, in fact the Psyphire Parasite will extricate itself from his skull if he went to such a location. Lord Sinister could kill a person and then his next following action can be to use a
psychic attack to quickly siphon up their P.P.E., which would be doubled at the moment of their death (which of course doesn’t require a saving throw, their dead after all).
Vulnerabilities: He has several.
1. Vulnerable to silver. Weapons made of silver or coated with it inflict normal damage. Damage cannot be healed by bio-regeneration. Takes 1D4 hours before healing can begin.
2. Vulnerable to sunlight. Sunlight and high intensity light beams, including lasers and the super ability of Energy Expulsion: Light, inflict double damage! Exposure to sunlight (not
artificial light) completely blinds him (-4 on initiative, -8 to strike, parry and dodge) and is painful (1D6 damage per minute of exposure and takes 1D4 hours to heal). Exposure to
artificial light cannot blind him. He could walk around in a supermarket and see perfectly normal thanks to his vampire nature, however instinctually (as a Twilight World native) he
still prefers to keep lighting to a minimal whenever possible, much to the chagrin of his underlings the Slayers.
3. Vulnerable to meteoric iron (cold iron). Weapons made of this material (club, sword, arrow, etc) inflict normal damage. 1D4 hours must pass before he can begin to heal any
damage sustain by meteoric iron.
4. He can be staked through the heart using silver or meteoric iron. This will place him in immediate stasis-like coma that resembles death, cannot bio-regenerate and becomes
vulnerable to normal weapons! He is unaware of his surroundings. If the rod/stake is removed, he will awaken.
5. If he is killed or decapitated, 2D4 minutes after death, the Psyphire Parasite will remove itself from his skull and then it will then seek a dark, underground location so it might find
a new host. Meanwhile, Lord Sinister’s body will crumble into dust.
6. Any effort to attack the Psyphire Parasite meaning performing a “Called Shot” to Lord Sinister’s head (-5 to strike). Destroying Lord Sinister head (decapitation) will kill him but it
won’t kill the Psyphire Parasite. The only way to kill the parasite/symbiote while its in Lord Sinister’s head is to atomize, vaporize, or incinerate both his body and head simultaneously.
Blowing up his body (into a million pieces) will kill Lord Sinister, but the Psyphire Parasite will survive intact (full Hit Points) and will try to make its escape by digging underground
(Digging Spd 6) and hiding until nightfall so it can eventually find a new Host.
7. Pysphire Parasite cannot use its psychic powers without a Host body unless something makes physical contact with its skin, nor can it steal I.S.P./P.P.E. from living beings via a
psionic attack. However, the creature can survive indefinitely on the ambient energy of a ley line/nexus giving it no further need of a Host body. The creature will dislodge itself from
the Host’s skull, bury itself in the ground and be content. Lord Sinister doesn’t know the creature will do this. The creature has no means of communication nor does it have thoughts,
plans or desires (just hunger pains). Lord Sinister has convinced himself the creature and him share a symbolic relationship. The Psyphire Symbiote is a parasite, meaning it’s only
interested in sustaining itself. If Lord Sinister enters a place where there is ambient P.P.E, to feed upon (such as a ley line, nexus, place of power, or whatever) the Psyphire Parasite
won’t need him anymore and will extricate itself from his skull. This will cause Lord Sinister to lose 6D6 points damage direct to his Hit Points, reduce all mental attribute (I.Q., M.E.,
and M.A.) by 2D4 permanently (cannot be restored), -50% to perform all skills. All I.S.P. points and psionic power are permanently lost! If Lord Sinister survives (he will have a 50
caliber bullet size hole in his head) he will suffers from chronic headaches every day (reduce P.E. by one point, -1 on initiative, and -5% on all skills because the pain is distracting and
debilitating) and insanity is likely to develop. Roll once for a phobia or an obsession (G.M. choice) and once for an affective disorder. The damage done to his brain is permanent
unless he finds someone to perform healing via super ability, alien technology, magic, psionic, or divine to repair the damage. If he doesn’t do any of this, he will become a complete
vegetable within the next 4D4 weeks and die 4D4 weeks after that.

The Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote
On their Twilight home world, the Psyphire Parasite is a mollusk (slug) with a cone shell shaped like a blue crystal stalactite. They are about the size of a 50 caliber bullet with a
thick casting, making them about 9.5 inches (23 cm) long. Their hard-crystal shell (AR 14) protects the soft slug upper body (Hit Points 28). They have a single eye that allows them
to see in a 360 degree radius (Nightvision 60 feet/18.2 m). These creatures live in caves where they climb to the ceiling using their jaws to embed themselves so they can hang
upside down with their hard shells pointing toward the floor. These powerful psychic creatures attack their prey by dropping from the ceiling with the intent of piercing their body.
Once they strike their target (2D6 damage— it’s a surprise/critical strike, on an unmodified roll of 18-20 their attack does double damage). The victim must immediately make a save
vs psionics with a -3 penalty against Catatonic Strike. Regardless of the amount of damage inflicted, the victim of the attack immediately falls into a complete catatonic coma, unless
he saves vs psionic attack. A successful save means the victim only suffers the impact damage and a shock to his system that causes 2D6 additional damage and reduces the number
of melee attacks and combat bonuses by half for 1D4 melee rounds. If the Psyphire Parasite fails to hit a target, it must make a roll with punch/fall (+2) to survive the impact when it
hits the ground. Luckily they can bio-regenerate 1D4 Hit Points every hour. The creature will then crawl (Spd 3) its way back up to the ceiling and start the process over again.
A failed save vs psionics means the character instantly collapses and falls into a coma. The catatonic subject is helpless; incapable of any kind of action: physical, mental, or
psionic. The Psyphire Parasite then dislodges itself from its victim crawls onto their head and uses its jaws to burrow into the skull until it makes contact with the victim’s brain. Hours
later (by then the impact wound is healed), the victim recovers unable to remember the incident. The victim will look into the mirror and see what looks like a quadratic blue star
sapphire 2.5 inches (6.25 cm) in diameter. Their overall appearance has also changed—turning their skin chalk white, super sharp teeth (1D4 bite damage), red eyes, and their
physical attributes have been transformed and enhanced:
1. Gains 3D6x10 S.D.C., +4 to P.E., and operates at full efficiency for 48 hours straight without rest or sleep.
2. Bio-Regenerates 2D6 S.D.C/Hit Points per melee round and is impervious to poisons, toxins, drugs, disease, heat and cold. Can regenerate lost limbs (except the head) within 1D4 days.
3. +3D6 to P.S. (Minimum P.S. is 30) and is considered to be supernatural!
4. +2D6x10 to Spd, and increases leaping ability by twenty feet (6.1 m) high and lengthwise.
5. +2D6 to P.P. (Minimum P.P. is 22), gains an automatic dodge, and add +4 to initiative, +3 to strike, parry, and dodge, +4 to roll with punch/impact, and +8 to save vs Horror
Factor. Normal punches and kicks do no damage, but similar Extraordinary, Superhuman and Supernatural Strength attacks inflict half damage.
6. Normal weapons (sword, club, etc.), bullets and explosions do half damage - magic, fire, sonic blast, and energy attacks do half damage.
7. No longer needs to eat food or breathe air.
8. Does not age and is immortal unless destroyed completely.
9. Impervious to mind control, possession, and illusion.
10. P.P.E. Vampire. Every 24 hours, the Psyphire Parasite needs to feed on 20 P.P.E. to sustain itself. It cannot utilize any of its psychic powers for range attack, its psionic power only
work when something makes actual physical contact with it (touch). However, it still cannot drain P.P.E./I.S.P. from a living thing unless it has direct contact with the brain of that
victim. Because they cannot transport themselves very far (Spd 3) and cannot use their powers to defend themselves (only by touching) they create for themselves Host bodies.
Their victims “think” they and Psyphire have a Symbiotic Relationship. The Host retains full control over his or her body and mind, and has no change to in his or her personality or
alignment except they suffer the “vampire hunger” for P.P.E./I.S.P but this hunger is not theirs, its Psyphire Parasite as the Host no longer has a desire to eat normal food.
In order for the Host to feed and protect the Parasite, the creature transforms the Host into a powerful mega psychic undead symbiotic being. If the Host refuses or is unable to
feed the Pysphire Parasite after 24 hours, he spends the next hour having zero access to any psychic abilities. An hour later, his legs will feel like they weigh a ton and the rest of his
body feels weak and aches. At this point, all melee attacks, bonuses and speed are reduced to half. He will stay this way for 1D4 days before “the hunger” becomes uncontrollable. He
loses all symbiotic abilities, has ordinary P.S., has only two melee attack, no bonuses and speed is reduce to one-quarter. He has one day to kill or drain P.P.E., if he fails the Psyphire
Parasite will dislodge itself from his skull in search of psychic energy on its own. The creature has 1D4 days to find P.P.E. before dying—just vanishing into nothing.
After the Host feeds the Psyphire Parasite the initial 20 P.P.E., if he wants to access the creatures I.S.P. in order to utilize the granted psychic abilities (or tap into his or her own
psychic powers they had prior to forming the symbiotic relationship), they must feed the Psyphire Parasite an additional 10 P.P.E. This like the initial feeding only has to be done once
every 24 hours. The parasite is a glutton and will devour as much P.P.E. as available, even consuming 20 times the required energy. However, this gluttony (100+ P.P.E. points) does
not sustain it more than an extra day and the creature will still need to feed again after the initial feeding in 48 hours. Even if the Host doesn’t use any psychic powers during the 24
hours (or 48 after the super feeding) all that extra I.S.P. vanishes after the 24 hours (48 hour mark) and the Host must begin the process all over again. The Host using psychic
powers does not make the parasite hungry, that has be satiated until 24 hours (48 hours) pass from the initial feeding. But the Host cannot regain I.S.P. via rest, mediation, or sleep.
It has to keep stealing P.P.E./I.S.P to fuel the psychic powers. However the Host still has to remember after 24 (48) hours, all I.S.P. is reduced to zero and the process must start all
over. The creature has a personal reservoir of 40 I.S.P., that the host DOES NOT have access to nor does the parasite ever grant it. This 40 I.S.P. is not included in the I.S.P. reservoir
nor does the Host get to use any or use for psychic powers. The 20 P.P.E. initially required by the parasite and the 10 P.P.E. that grants psychic powers for the day are not included in
the reservoir nor are they responsible for the creation or sustaining the 40 I.S.P. The parasite recovers this 40 I.S.P. just as a normal psychic does. Note: If the Host is already psychic
(like Lord Sinister), the Psyphire Parasite doubles his or her I.S.P. pool (see below), in other words doubles their capacity to hold additional I.S.P, but none of this I.S.P. belongs to the
Host anymore. All I.S.P. used by the Host comes from the Psyphire Parasite which means the Host still has to feed the Psyphire Parasite every 24 hours (48 if super charge) after the
initial feeding of 20 P.P.E. if he wants to access HIS or HER own psychic abilities as well as those additionally granted.
Note: Pysphire Parasite cannot use range psychic powers without a Host body (only via direct physical contact) nor can it feed on the I.S.P. or P.P.E. of living beings without
latching onto their brain. However, the parasite can survive indefinitely when on a ley line/nexus and has no need for a Host body. It will dislodge itself, bury itself in the ground and
be content.
Psyphire Parasite takes over Host body so it can find P.P.E. to feed upon. It has no means of communication nor does it have thoughts, plans or desires (just hunger). It forms
the “appearance” of a symbolic relationship in order to live and survive. Remember it’s a parasite. If the Host enters a place where there is ambient P.P.E, to feed upon (such as a ley
line, nexus, place of power, or whatever) then Psyphire Parasite doesn’t need the Host any longer. It will extricate itself from the host skull and depart. This will cause 6D6 points
damage direct to the Host’s Hit Points, reduce all mental attribute (I.Q., M.E., and M.A.) by 2D4 permanently (cannot be restored), -50% to perform all skills. All I.S.P. points and
psionic power are permanently lost! The host (if he survives having a hole in his or her head) suffers from chronic headaches every day (reduce P.E. by one point, -1 on initiative, and
-5% on all skills because the pain is distracting and debilitating) and insanity is likely to develop. Roll once for a phobia or an obsession (G.M. choice) and once for an affective
disorder. The damage done to the character’s brain is irreparable by modern standards (unless seek out super ability, alien technology, magical, psionic, or divine healing) and
regardless what sort of advance medical treatment the Host seeks out he or she will STILL become a complete vegetable within the next 4D4 weeks and die 4D4 weeks after that.
Benefits gains by the Host:
When a Psyphire Parasite merges with the mind of a non-psionic, the victims gains the following psionic abilities: Double M.E. attribute (x2) and add 2D4x10. The total is the
starting level of the I.S.P. reservoir for Host. As he/she grows in experience, so does the reservoir, adding 1D6+1 I.S.P. per each level of experience, starting with level one.
The following psionic powers belong to the Psyphire Parasite at 6th level in experience and its will grant the Host use of this powers after he or she feeds its 10 P.P.E within 24
hours of the initial feeding of 20 P.P.E. These powers never increase beyond sixth level regardless what level of experience the Host obtains because the powers don’t belong to the
Host: Bio-Manipulation (10), Death Trance (1), Empathy (4), Empathic Transmission (6), Hypnotic Suggestion (6), Impervious to Fire (4), Levitation (varies), Mind Block (4), Mind
Wipe (special), Presence Sense (4), See Aura (6), See the Invisible (4), Sixth Sense (2), Steal Memory (6), Steal Skills (15), Telekinesis (varies), and Telepathy (4). Note: The
Psyphire Parasite only uses Catatonic Strike (40) to incapacitate a Host. It never shares this ability with the Host. This power requires the Psyphire Parasite to inflict at minimum 1
point of physical damage to the S.D.C. or Hit Points of its intended Host body. If lying on the ground and someone picks up the Pysphire Parasite, the creature could use Bio-
Manipulation (12) to incapacitate him or her because the person is making physical contact (even while wearing a glove or cybernetic limb). The creature can then crawl (Spd 3)
toward the skull and begin the burrowing to the brain. Note: Some of the powers the Parasite possess it cannot use even if a person makes physical contact with it (telepathy for
example) because the parasite doesn’t have the capacity to “think” or have “thoughts or “emotions” like a humanoid.
When the Psyphire Parasite merges with a psychic (Minor, Major/Latent, or Natural/Master) the following changes will occur: Double the character’s I.S.P. reservoir, and add
+1D4x10. The character’s psionic power continues to grow as normal for his or her type (Minor, Major, or Master), +2 to save vs psionic attack, Horror Factor, and magic illusion. +5%
bonus to all skills and +1 to initiative. Increase the range of all his/her psionic powers by +50%. He or she keeps all their psionic powers, and has access to any of the psionic powers
of the Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote (once he has fulfilled the daily requirement of feeding it 20 P.P.E. plus 10 additional). The Host cannot feed the Psyphire Parasite from his own I.S.P.
or P.P.E. reservoir, because that reservoir no longer belongs to him/her. The Parasite is the source of the character’s I.S.P.
Vulnerabilities: After forming the Mega Symbiotic relationship, the Host develops the following weakness:
1. Vulnerable to silver. Weapons made of silver or coated with it inflict normal damage. Damage cannot be healed by bio-regeneration. Takes 1D4 hours before healing can begin.
2. Vulnerable to sunlight. Sunlight and high intensity light beams, including lasers and the super ability of Energy Expulsion: Light, inflict double damage! Exposure to sunlight (not
artificial light) completely blinds the undead being (-4 on initiative, -8 to strike, parry and dodge) and is painful (1D6 damage per minute of exposure and takes 1D4 hours to heal).
3. Vulnerable to meteoric iron (cold iron). Weapons made of this material (club, sword, arrow, etc) inflict normal damage. Damage cannot be healed by bio-regeneration. 1D4 hours
must pass before any damage from meteoric iron can begin.
4. The Host can be staked through the heart using silver or meteoric iron. This will place him/her in immediate stasis-like coma that resembles death, cannot bio-regenerate and
becomes vulnerable to normal weapons! The Host becomes unaware of his/her surroundings. If the rod/stake is removed, the Host awakens.
5. If the Host is killed or decapitated, 2D4 minutes after death, the Psyphire Parasite will remove itself from the skull (leaving a gaping hole). It will then seek out a dark, underground
location so it might find a new Host.
6. Any effort to attack the Psyphire Parasite meaning performing a “Called Shot” to the Host’s head (-5 to strike). Destroying the head (decapitation) will kill the Host instantly but it
doesn’t kill the Psyphire Parasite. The only way to kill the parasite/symbiote while in the Host’s head is to atomize, vaporize, or incinerate both the head and body simultaneously.
Blowing up the Host body (into a million pieces) will kill the Host, but the Parasite will survive intact (full Hit Points) and will try to make its escape by digging underground (Digging
Spd 6).
Lord Sinister
Darzen-Vin was an admiral in the Arismal military space program. He served with distinction and supported the cause of finding them a new planet to call home. As the
commander on board one of the remaining battleships, he communicated with the other leaders, sharing with them his thoughts and ideas. He wanted to explore a particular section
of the Ilta Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy, but he couldn’t convince the others Admiral to follow his hunch. They had heard stories about ships that went into this sector of space
never to be seen again. There existed no charts or anything reference. Darzen said he would take a vote with his command staff. If they voted against the idea, he would forget about
it. If they agreed with him though, their ship would depart at once and report back if they found a suitable planet. If they didn’t find anything, he would bring the ship back to the
fleet and give up his command. The other admirals agreed. However, Darzen lied and never allowed the vote to occur. He ordered the ship to leave from the fleet. They jump to light
speed and left the Arismal fleet behind. Hours later they arrived at the sector Darzen-Vin was convinced the suitable planet found in an unusual binary star system, but that planet
turned out to be a Demon Planet. It attacked the battleship, crippling the ship. Darzen used an escape pod to flee the ship, but it got caught in the gravity of a dwarf planet
orbiting one of the two stars. The battleship meanwhile crashed against the surface of the Demon Planet where it absorbed the life energy (P.P.E.) from everyone on the ship who
died. Darzen fled his escape pod looking for shelter. He saw a cave and went inside. Minutes later, a stalactite dropped from the ceiling and impaled him in shoulder. The moment it
did he clutched his head, shrieked, then collapsed.
Minutes later he awoke to find himself in a strange crystal cave. He started exploring the cave when he realized the crystal stalactite and a stalagmite were actually living
creatures. He fled from the cave. Look up he saw the Demon Planet only know it was being confronted by the Arismal Fleet. Even the Demon Planet was no match for the Arismal
Fleet and it disappeared. A rescue ship landed on the moon and started searching for survivors having spotted Darzen escape pod. He approached two soldiers, so glad to see them,
they drew weapons upon him. He had no choice but to defend himself. He also realized he feed upon their psychic energy the moment he killed them with newly acquired psychic
abilities. Darzen went to their ship, powered it up, and fled at once. He ignored the transmission from the other Arismal Battleships. Looking into a mirror, he realized why the soldiers
attacked him. He’d been transformed into a monster and he had a strange blue gemstone in the center of his forehead. Try as he might, he couldn’t remove it.
His single ship got pulled into a dimensional anomaly created by the fleeing Demon Planet, sending him through a dimensional syphon. His ship out of control was spat out a
gravity well located just inside the planet Jupiter’s orbit. Damaged beyond repair, Darzen did his best to pilot the ship toward the only planet with humanoid life on the surface, the
third one closest to the sun. He entered Earth atmosphere when the engines of the craft gave out. He managed to maintain control of the ship piloting it until he was able to perform
a controlled crash-landing. The ship was now in a remote location in the state of Kansas in the United States of America.
Darzen was amazed he was for the most unharmed. When he opened the doors to the craft, he was immediately blinded by sunlight and his skin blistered. He waited until
nightfall then ventured out onto this alien world. He wandered until he saw a farm and a large barn. He took shelter inside and went to sleep. Hours later he was awoken by 17 year
old Amelia Kramer. She was not frightened by him. The moment he laid eyes on her, he grew feverish with desire. She was humanoid and very attractive, and she possessed
something he hunger for. He tried to feed on her psychic energy, but she resisted him with ease. He felt the “need” to take her by force, but the sunlight coming into the barn blinded
him and hurt his skin. She closed the barn doors and threw a horse blanket over him. She then talked to him via telepathic transmission. He was amazed. She was a natural psychic
and she wasn’t frightened by his appearance. She told him to stay put and she would keep him safe. Hours later when night feel she went to see him again. He told her that he
hungered was insatiable. That if he could just have a little of her psychic energy, he would be alright. She agreed but just a little. Darzen took just enough to satisfy the parasite. She
then provided him some background and information about his location. He then told her a little about himself. After a while she left the barn and told him to stay put, she would keep
her father distracted. That night he felt strong enough to leave, not wanting to trouble the girl and her father. As he came out of the barn, he gasped as he saw the house go up in
flames and Amelia running out to meet him with a suitcase. “Come on,” she said. “We have to run away from here.” They did eventually seeking shelter in the back of semi-trailer.
Later she used her “Mind Fry” (Alter Personality) turning him into their personal slave. He would drive them around, occasionally stopping for gas, bathroom breaks, and food for her.
As the days passed, Amelia taught Darzen about earth and helped him learn about his newly developed psychic powers. Some day the truck would stop and they would go to libraries
and museums to help him learn about Earth’s history, its culture, and its place in the Milky Way galaxy. After a while, Darzen changed the roles of their relationship, becoming the
dominant one, not that she seem to mind.
After several weeks of traveling, they left the truck driver slave (dead alongside the road) and made a life for themselves in Victory City. The more Darzen learned about Earth,
the more he wanted to dominate the humans inhabiting it. The image of the Demon Planet stayed in his mind and he wanted to be just like it. He saw himself practically invincible,
that he could accomplish anything he set his mind towards. With Amerlia help, he used the Mutant Underground to find and recruit other super being, training them the discipline and
fighting techniques of the Arismal Space Infantry. They now serve as his body guard and minions, obeying his orders and carrying out his various schemes. His plan is to find a way to
enslave the all humanity, to give himself a constant food source to feed him symbiote so he might be granted unlimited power. He is always looking for super heroes/villains that he
can capture, imprison, and use them as constant P.P.E. source (a bowl of fruit on the table) to keep as his P.P.E. source and sustain his psychic powers. Lord Sinister is cold,
calculating, and tends to think his actions through before acting on them. He is a natural leader with keen eyes for strategy, tactics, and deception. He likes to develop intricate plans
and always has several contingencies within those plans. Unfortunately, Darzen doesn’t recognize that his ambition to rule over humanity nothing more than complex dressing to find
a way to sustain the Psyphire Symbiote/Parasite into giving him a sustainable source of psychic power. What Darzen fails to realize is by doing so, the Psyphire doesn’t need its Host
anymore. It will detach itself from his skull and enjoy everlasting psychic energy. Darzen is nothing more than a meat-puppet for a mollusk (slug) that cannot move around or defend
itself without sustaining damage. If he could recognize this fact, that he could simply live off the I.S.P. and affection he receives from Amerlia, he would not have to resort to
kidnapping other super beings and psychics, or try to come up with a mean of giving himself vast control over large populations of humans. The delusions of the Demon Planet are
actual broadcast of hunger from the slug. Darzen cannot conceive what his purpose in life has become, such arrogance is why also his plan ultimate fail, and the path he has set for
himself with eventually lead to his own destruction, which unfortunately will involve everyone around him and possibly tens of thousands.

Experience Level: 10th level
Hit Points: 63 S.D.C.: 183
P.P.E.: 20
I.S.P.: 262. Note: This doesn’t include the 40 I.S.P. the Psyphire Parasite keeps for itself.

Age: 90, Sex: Male, Height: 6 foot and 6 inches (1.98 m), Weight: 285 lbs (128 kg),
Originating Alien Environment: Twilight World.
Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote: Hit Points: 28, A.R.: 14. See below.
Mega-Abilities: All normal Mega-Abilities plus Undead. Note: The range of all his psionic powers, and those he receives from the Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote are increased by
50%. Note: He does not recover spent I.S.P. like a normal psychic (sleep or meditation). He must steal his P.P.E./I.S.P. to get it back. See below.
Natural Abilities: Like all Arismal, Lord Sinister has natural nightvision, however its range has been enhanced 900 feet (274 m) and he has sensitive hearing (20 decibels
beyond normal human range). He can operate at full efficiency for 48 hours straight without rest or sleep. Bio-Regenerates 2D6 S.D.C/Hit Points per melee round. He can regenerate
lost limbs and organs (except the head) within 1D4 days. He can leap 20 feet (6.1 m) high and lengthwise. He suffers no damage from normal punches and kicks (melee attacks), but
similar Extraordinary, Superhuman and Supernatural Strength attacks inflict half damage. Normal weapons (sword, club, etc.), bullets and explosions do half damage—fire, sonic
blast, and energy attacks (from technology, magic, or super abilities) do half damage. No longer needs to eat food or breathe air. Does not age and is immortal unless destroyed
completely.
P.P.E. Vampire: Every 24 hours, the Psyphire Parasite needs to feed on 20 P.P.E. to sustain itself and 10 additional P.P.E. for the Host to be able to utilize its psychic abilities
(access it’s I.S.P) for the next 24 hours. The Host has to feed the parasite first if he wants to use any psychic power or be granted any abilities for that day. The parasite is a glutton
and will devour as much P.P.E. as available. Lord Sinister can drain enough P.P.E. to convert to his maximum reservoir (262 I.SP.) and utilize that I.S.P. however he wishes to spend it.
However, he cannot rest, meditate, or sleep to recover spent I.S.P. The only way he can recover I.S.P. is to keep feeding on living things (P.P.E./I.S.P. drain). When Lord Sinister
reaches his maximum potential, he has to remember that none of this I.S.P. belongs to him, it ALL call comes from the Psyphire Parasite. He doesn’t possess any I.S.P. of his own.
Once 24 hours passes from the time of the initial feeding of 20 P.P.E., any surplus I.S.P. he has gained (even if he just super charged himself 5 minutes before, instantly dissipates! He
must then start over again, giving the creature its initial 20 P.P.E. and then 10 P.P.E. in order to start accumulating I.S.P. for himself. If he goes into battle using his powers, he
“believes” he has to have a sustainable source of P.P.E. in order to keep fuelings his powers, which is the actual reason the Slayers exist, so he quick snatch willing P.P.E. from them. If
he reduces his I.S.P., pool to zero within the 24 hours he has feed, it doesn’t both the Psyphire Parasite, its initial hunger has been satisfied, but he will need more I.S.P. to continue
the fight, which he must get from other living beings either draining their P.P.E./I.S.P via psionic attack (see below) or killing them and then taking it (P.P.E. is doubled at the moment
of death, but only briefly).
Stealing psychic energy: Range: 20 foot (6 m) radius. I.S.P.: Nothing. The stealing of potential psychic energy from living beings is painless and harmless (unless you’re a
mage or psychic who needs the P.P.E./I.S.P. to fuel their magic and/or psionic powers). Everyone in the effective range must make a successful saving throw vs psionic attack (15 or
better, 12 for minor/Latent psychics, 10 for Natural/Master Psychics). This psionic attack only cost one action to perform and can be done equal to Lord Sinister’s number of attack per
melee round. Those who successful save Lord Sinister, he cannot get any P.P.E/I.S.P. from that single attack, but he can always try again and again. A failed save mean Lord Sinister
can steal up to 20 I.S.P. or 5 P.P.E. from that specific person (1 P.P.E. equals 4 I.S.P.). As mentioned earlier, he can do this to multiple people within the effective range. Those who fail
temporarily lose the P.P.E./I.S.P. as if he/she used their psionic powers or cast magic. A person can willingly offers his or her I.S.P./P.P.E., up to 70% of their own reservoir. This does
require a roll to save vs psionic attack, the energy is automatically stolen: this is often the case with his Slayers. P.P.E. is not used to fuel super abilities (unless magically powered) so
if he drains an alien, experiment, mutant, etc to zero P.P.E. they can still function and use their powers as if nothing happened.
Normal humans have 2D6 P.P.E. Average child (12 and under) 5D6 P.P.E., Teenagers between 12-18 year old will have 6D6 + P.E. attribute number. The average super being also
has 6D6 P.P.E., unless he or she is psychic or has magical abilities. Lord Sinister cannot steal P.P.E. from talismans or non-living sources. He also cannot steal P.P.E. from ley lines or
nexus, in fact the Psyphire Parasite will extricate itself from his skull if he went to such a location. Lord Sinister could kill a person and then his next following action can be to use a
psychic attack to quickly siphon up their P.P.E., which would be doubled at the moment of their death (which of course doesn’t require a saving throw, their dead after all).
Vulnerabilities: He has several.
1. Vulnerable to silver. Weapons made of silver or coated with it inflict normal damage. Damage cannot be healed by bio-regeneration. Takes 1D4 hours before healing can begin.
2. Vulnerable to sunlight. Sunlight and high intensity light beams, including lasers and the super ability of Energy Expulsion: Light, inflict double damage! Exposure to sunlight (not
artificial light) completely blinds him (-4 on initiative, -8 to strike, parry and dodge) and is painful (1D6 damage per minute of exposure and takes 1D4 hours to heal). Exposure to
artificial light cannot blind him. He could walk around in a supermarket and see perfectly normal thanks to his vampire nature, however instinctually (as a Twilight World native) he
still prefers to keep lighting to a minimal whenever possible, much to the chagrin of his underlings the Slayers.
3. Vulnerable to meteoric iron (cold iron). Weapons made of this material (club, sword, arrow, etc) inflict normal damage. 1D4 hours must pass before he can begin to heal any
damage sustain by meteoric iron.
4. He can be staked through the heart using silver or meteoric iron. This will place him in immediate stasis-like coma that resembles death, cannot bio-regenerate and becomes
vulnerable to normal weapons! He is unaware of his surroundings. If the rod/stake is removed, he will awaken.
5. If he is killed or decapitated, 2D4 minutes after death, the Psyphire Parasite will remove itself from his skull and then it will then seek a dark, underground location so it might find
a new host. Meanwhile, Lord Sinister’s body will crumble into dust.
6. Any effort to attack the Psyphire Parasite meaning performing a “Called Shot” to Lord Sinister’s head (-5 to strike). Destroying Lord Sinister head (decapitation) will kill him but it
won’t kill the Psyphire Parasite. The only way to kill the parasite/symbiote while its in Lord Sinister’s head is to atomize, vaporize, or incinerate both his body and head simultaneously.
Blowing up his body (into a million pieces) will kill Lord Sinister, but the Psyphire Parasite will survive intact (full Hit Points) and will try to make its escape by digging underground
(Digging Spd 6) and hiding until nightfall so it can eventually find a new Host.
7. Pysphire Parasite cannot use its psychic powers without a Host body unless something makes physical contact with its skin, nor can it steal I.S.P./P.P.E. from living beings via a
psionic attack. However, the creature can survive indefinitely on the ambient energy of a ley line/nexus giving it no further need of a Host body. The creature will dislodge itself from
the Host’s skull, bury itself in the ground and be content. Lord Sinister doesn’t know the creature will do this. The creature has no means of communication nor does it have thoughts,
plans or desires (just hunger pains). Lord Sinister has convinced himself the creature and him share a symbolic relationship. The Psyphire Symbiote is a parasite, meaning it’s only
interested in sustaining itself. If Lord Sinister enters a place where there is ambient P.P.E, to feed upon (such as a ley line, nexus, place of power, or whatever) the Psyphire Parasite
won’t need him anymore and will extricate itself from his skull. This will cause Lord Sinister to lose 6D6 points damage direct to his Hit Points, reduce all mental attribute (I.Q., M.E.,
and M.A.) by 2D4 permanently (cannot be restored), -50% to perform all skills. All I.S.P. points and psionic power are permanently lost! If Lord Sinister survives (he will have a 50
caliber bullet size hole in his head) he will suffers from chronic headaches every day (reduce P.E. by one point, -1 on initiative, and -5% on all skills because the pain is distracting and
debilitating) and insanity is likely to develop. Roll once for a phobia or an obsession (G.M. choice) and once for an affective disorder. The damage done to his brain is permanent
unless he finds someone to perform healing via super ability, alien technology, magic, psionic, or divine to repair the damage. If he doesn’t do any of this, he will become a complete
vegetable within the next 4D4 weeks and die 4D4 weeks after that.
Psionic Powers from the Psyphire Parasite: All these powers stay at 6th level in experience, as they belong to the parasite: Bio-Manipulation (10), Death Trance (1), Empathy
(4), Empathic Transmission (6), Hypnotic Suggestion (6), Impervious to Fire (4), Levitation (varies), Mind Block (4), Mind Wipe (special), Presence Sense (4), See Aura (6), See the
Invisible (4), Sixth Sense (2), Steal Memory (6), Steal Skills (15), Telekinesis (varies), and Telepathy (4). He cannot use the Pyshire Parasite’s Catatonic Strike power.
Super Psionic Powers: Insert Memory (25), Mental Illusion (20), Invisible Haze (30), Mind Bolt (varies), Psychic Omni-Sight (15), Telekinetic Force Field (30), and Telemechanic
Mental Operation (12), Note: All these psionic powers belonged to Lord Sinister prior to his transformation so they function at 10th level.

The Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote
On their Twilight home world, the Psyphire Parasite is a mollusk (slug) with a cone shell shaped like a blue crystal stalactite. They are about the size of a 50 caliber bullet with a
thick casting, making them about 9.5 inches (23 cm) long. Their hard-crystal shell (AR 14) protects the soft slug upper body (Hit Points 28). They have a single eye that allows them
to see in a 360 degree radius (Nightvision 60 feet/18.2 m). These creatures live in caves where they climb to the ceiling using their jaws to embed themselves so they can hang
upside down with their hard shells pointing toward the floor. These powerful psychic creatures attack their prey by dropping from the ceiling with the intent of piercing their body.
Once they strike their target (2D6 damage— it’s a surprise/critical strike, on an unmodified roll of 18-20 their attack does double damage). The victim must immediately make a save
vs psionics with a -3 penalty against Catatonic Strike. Regardless of the amount of damage inflicted, the victim of the attack immediately falls into a complete catatonic coma, unless
he saves vs psionic attack. A successful save means the victim only suffers the impact damage and a shock to his system that causes 2D6 additional damage and reduces the number
of melee attacks and combat bonuses by half for 1D4 melee rounds. If the Psyphire Parasite fails to hit a target, it must make a roll with punch/fall (+2) to survive the impact when it
hits the ground. Luckily they can bio-regenerate 1D4 Hit Points every hour. The creature will then crawl (Spd 3) its way back up to the ceiling and start the process over again.
A failed save vs psionics means the character instantly collapses and falls into a coma. The catatonic subject is helpless; incapable of any kind of action: physical, mental, or
psionic. The Psyphire Parasite then dislodges itself from its victim crawls onto their head and uses its jaws to burrow into the skull until it makes contact with the victim’s brain. Hours
later (by then the impact wound is healed), the victim recovers unable to remember the incident. The victim will look into the mirror and see what looks like a quadratic blue star
sapphire 2.5 inches (6.25 cm) in diameter. Their overall appearance has also changed—turning their skin chalk white, super sharp teeth (1D4 bite damage), red eyes, and their
physical attributes have been transformed and enhanced:
1. Gains 3D6x10 S.D.C., +4 to P.E., and operates at full efficiency for 48 hours straight without rest or sleep.
2. Bio-Regenerates 2D6 S.D.C/Hit Points per melee round and is impervious to poisons, toxins, drugs, disease, heat and cold. Can regenerate lost limbs (except the head) within 1D4 days.
3. +3D6 to P.S. (Minimum P.S. is 30) and is considered to be supernatural!
4. +2D6x10 to Spd, and increases leaping ability by twenty feet (6.1 m) high and lengthwise.
5. +2D6 to P.P. (Minimum P.P. is 22), gains an automatic dodge, and add +4 to initiative, +3 to strike, parry, and dodge, +4 to roll with punch/impact, and +8 to save vs Horror
Factor. Normal punches and kicks do no damage, but similar Extraordinary, Superhuman and Supernatural Strength attacks inflict half damage.
6. Normal weapons (sword, club, etc.), bullets and explosions do half damage - magic, fire, sonic blast, and energy attacks do half damage.
7. No longer needs to eat food or breathe air.
8. Does not age and is immortal unless destroyed completely.
9. Impervious to mind control, possession, and illusion.
10. P.P.E. Vampire. Every 24 hours, the Psyphire Parasite needs to feed on 20 P.P.E. to sustain itself. It cannot utilize any of its psychic powers for range attack, its psionic power only
work when something makes actual physical contact with it (touch). However, it still cannot drain P.P.E./I.S.P. from a living thing unless it has direct contact with the brain of that
victim. Because they cannot transport themselves very far (Spd 3) and cannot use their powers to defend themselves (only by touching) they create for themselves Host bodies.
Their victims “think” they and Psyphire have a Symbiotic Relationship. The Host retains full control over his or her body and mind, and has no change to in his or her personality or
alignment except they suffer the “vampire hunger” for P.P.E./I.S.P but this hunger is not theirs, its Psyphire Parasite as the Host no longer has a desire to eat normal food.
In order for the Host to feed and protect the Parasite, the creature transforms the Host into a powerful mega psychic undead symbiotic being. If the Host refuses or is unable to
feed the Pysphire Parasite after 24 hours, he spends the next hour having zero access to any psychic abilities. An hour later, his legs will feel like they weigh a ton and the rest of his
body feels weak and aches. At this point, all melee attacks, bonuses and speed are reduced to half. He will stay this way for 1D4 days before “the hunger” becomes uncontrollable. He
loses all symbiotic abilities, has ordinary P.S., has only two melee attack, no bonuses and speed is reduce to one-quarter. He has one day to kill or drain P.P.E., if he fails the Psyphire
Parasite will dislodge itself from his skull in search of psychic energy on its own. The creature has 1D4 days to find P.P.E. before dying—just vanishing into nothing.
After the Host feeds the Psyphire Parasite the initial 20 P.P.E., if he wants to access the creatures I.S.P. in order to utilize the granted psychic abilities (or tap into his or her own
psychic powers they had prior to forming the symbiotic relationship), they must feed the Psyphire Parasite an additional 10 P.P.E. This like the initial feeding only has to be done once
every 24 hours. The parasite is a glutton and will devour as much P.P.E. as available, even consuming 20 times the required energy. However, this gluttony (100+ P.P.E. points) does
not sustain it more than an extra day and the creature will still need to feed again after the initial feeding in 48 hours. Even if the Host doesn’t use any psychic powers during the 24
hours (or 48 after the super feeding) all that extra I.S.P. vanishes after the 24 hours (48 hour mark) and the Host must begin the process all over again. The Host using psychic
powers does not make the parasite hungry, that has be satiated until 24 hours (48 hours) pass from the initial feeding. But the Host cannot regain I.S.P. via rest, mediation, or sleep.
It has to keep stealing P.P.E./I.S.P to fuel the psychic powers. However the Host still has to remember after 24 (48) hours, all I.S.P. is reduced to zero and the process must start all
over. The creature has a personal reservoir of 40 I.S.P., that the host DOES NOT have access to nor does the parasite ever grant it. This 40 I.S.P. is not included in the I.S.P. reservoir
nor does the Host get to use any or use for psychic powers. The 20 P.P.E. initially required by the parasite and the 10 P.P.E. that grants psychic powers for the day are not included in
the reservoir nor are they responsible for the creation or sustaining the 40 I.S.P. The parasite recovers this 40 I.S.P. just as a normal psychic does. Note: If the Host is already psychic
(like Lord Sinister), the Psyphire Parasite doubles his or her I.S.P. pool (see below), in other words doubles their capacity to hold additional I.S.P, but none of this I.S.P. belongs to the
Host anymore. All I.S.P. used by the Host comes from the Psyphire Parasite which means the Host still has to feed the Psyphire Parasite every 24 hours (48 if super charge) after the
initial feeding of 20 P.P.E. if he wants to access HIS or HER own psychic abilities as well as those additionally granted.
Note: Pysphire Parasite cannot use range psychic powers without a Host body (only via direct physical contact) nor can it feed on the I.S.P. or P.P.E. of living beings without
latching onto their brain. However, the parasite can survive indefinitely when on a ley line/nexus and has no need for a Host body. It will dislodge itself, bury itself in the ground and
be content.
Psyphire Parasite takes over Host body so it can find P.P.E. to feed upon. It has no means of communication nor does it have thoughts, plans or desires (just hunger). It forms
the “appearance” of a symbolic relationship in order to live and survive. Remember it’s a parasite. If the Host enters a place where there is ambient P.P.E, to feed upon (such as a ley
line, nexus, place of power, or whatever) then Psyphire Parasite doesn’t need the Host any longer. It will extricate itself from the host skull and depart. This will cause 6D6 points
damage direct to the Host’s Hit Points, reduce all mental attribute (I.Q., M.E., and M.A.) by 2D4 permanently (cannot be restored), -50% to perform all skills. All I.S.P. points and
psionic power are permanently lost! The host (if he survives having a hole in his or her head) suffers from chronic headaches every day (reduce P.E. by one point, -1 on initiative, and
-5% on all skills because the pain is distracting and debilitating) and insanity is likely to develop. Roll once for a phobia or an obsession (G.M. choice) and once for an affective
disorder. The damage done to the character’s brain is irreparable by modern standards (unless seek out super ability, alien technology, magical, psionic, or divine healing) and
regardless what sort of advance medical treatment the Host seeks out he or she will STILL become a complete vegetable within the next 4D4 weeks and die 4D4 weeks after that.
Benefits gains by the Host:
When a Psyphire Parasite merges with the mind of a non-psionic, the victims gains the following psionic abilities: Double M.E. attribute (x2) and add 2D4x10. The total is the
starting level of the I.S.P. reservoir for Host. As he/she grows in experience, so does the reservoir, adding 1D6+1 I.S.P. per each level of experience, starting with level one.
The following psionic powers belong to the Psyphire Parasite at 6th level in experience and its will grant the Host use of this powers after he or she feeds its 10 P.P.E within 24
hours of the initial feeding of 20 P.P.E. These powers never increase beyond sixth level regardless what level of experience the Host obtains because the powers don’t belong to the
Host: Bio-Manipulation (10), Death Trance (1), Empathy (4), Empathic Transmission (6), Hypnotic Suggestion (6), Impervious to Fire (4), Levitation (varies), Mind Block (4), Mind
Wipe (special), Presence Sense (4), See Aura (6), See the Invisible (4), Sixth Sense (2), Steal Memory (6), Steal Skills (15), Telekinesis (varies), and Telepathy (4). Note: The
Psyphire Parasite only uses Catatonic Strike (40) to incapacitate a Host. It never shares this ability with the Host. This power requires the Psyphire Parasite to inflict at minimum 1
point of physical damage to the S.D.C. or Hit Points of its intended Host body. If lying on the ground and someone picks up the Pysphire Parasite, the creature could use Bio-
Manipulation (12) to incapacitate him or her because the person is making physical contact (even while wearing a glove or cybernetic limb). The creature can then crawl (Spd 3)
toward the skull and begin the burrowing to the brain. Note: Some of the powers the Parasite possess it cannot use even if a person makes physical contact with it (telepathy for
example) because the parasite doesn’t have the capacity to “think” or have “thoughts or “emotions” like a humanoid.
When the Psyphire Parasite merges with a psychic (Minor, Major/Latent, or Natural/Master) the following changes will occur: Double the character’s I.S.P. reservoir, and add
+1D4x10. The character’s psionic power continues to grow as normal for his or her type (Minor, Major, or Master), +2 to save vs psionic attack, Horror Factor, and magic illusion. +5%
bonus to all skills and +1 to initiative. Increase the range of all his/her psionic powers by +50%. He or she keeps all their psionic powers, and has access to any of the psionic powers
of the Psyphire Parasite/Symbiote (once he has fulfilled the daily requirement of feeding it 20 P.P.E. plus 10 additional). The Host cannot feed the Psyphire Parasite from his own I.S.P.
or P.P.E. reservoir, because that reservoir no longer belongs to him/her. The Parasite is the source of the character’s I.S.P.
Vulnerabilities: After forming the Mega Symbiotic relationship, the Host develops the following weakness:
1. Vulnerable to silver. Weapons made of silver or coated with it inflict normal damage. Damage cannot be healed by bio-regeneration. Takes 1D4 hours before healing can begin.
2. Vulnerable to sunlight. Sunlight and high intensity light beams, including lasers and the super ability of Energy Expulsion: Light, inflict double damage! Exposure to sunlight (not
artificial light) completely blinds the undead being (-4 on initiative, -8 to strike, parry and dodge) and is painful (1D6 damage per minute of exposure and takes 1D4 hours to heal).
3. Vulnerable to meteoric iron (cold iron). Weapons made of this material (club, sword, arrow, etc) inflict normal damage. Damage cannot be healed by bio-regeneration. 1D4 hours
must pass before any damage from meteoric iron can begin.
4. The Host can be staked through the heart using silver or meteoric iron. This will place him/her in immediate stasis-like coma that resembles death, cannot bio-regenerate and
becomes vulnerable to normal weapons! The Host becomes unaware of his/her surroundings. If the rod/stake is removed, the Host awakens.
5. If the Host is killed or decapitated, 2D4 minutes after death, the Psyphire Parasite will remove itself from the skull (leaving a gaping hole). It will then seek out a dark, underground
location so it might find a new Host.
6. Any effort to attack the Psyphire Parasite meaning performing a “Called Shot” to the Host’s head (-5 to strike). Destroying the head (decapitation) will kill the Host instantly but it
doesn’t kill the Psyphire Parasite. The only way to kill the parasite/symbiote while in the Host’s head is to atomize, vaporize, or incinerate both the head and body simultaneously.
Blowing up the Host body (into a million pieces) will kill the Host, but the Parasite will survive intact (full Hit Points) and will try to make its escape by digging underground (Digging
Spd 6).

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
MIND FRY
Amelia Kramer was born and raised in a small, isolated community in the state of Kansas. Her father, a supreme deviant, taught her from the age of two that her “might makes
right” and “pain is pleasure.” Her mother died from an autoerotic asphyxiation accident. It was Amelia who “sensed” her mother’s distress and walked into the room to witness her
mother’s self-inflicted asphyxiation. She stared at her for a moment and was about to call 911 to get her help when her father came in and stopped her. “Look at her that's
what happens when you decide it’s better to receive then to give. She deserves it.” The two of them continues to watch until her mother died upon with Amelia’s mind open and her
psychic power began to manifest. The older she grew the more powerful her abilities became.
By the time she was 16 years old, Amelia could use her abilities to play the sweet, conniving manipulator on the farm. She became a master in the art of wrapping the opposite
sex around her little finger to get them to do anything she wanted, rewarding them if she felt like it or tormenting them with insecurity, nitpicking and acts of mental and emotional
cruelty behind closed doors and in public. Then one day she heard a noise in the barn and decided to investigate. Inside she found the alien Darzen-Vin trying to hide from the sun.
He immediately tried to feed on her psychic power but she resisted him, then she started communicating with him via telepathy. Simply looking at him, Amelia was not frightened but
there was something about him that attracted her to him like a moth to a flame. She wanted him and no other. That night she struck her father with paralysis and pain, then set the
house on fire after she packed up what she could carry. She led Darzen out of the barn and drove him away in the farm truck in the middle of the night. They would travel about the
country, she showing and teaching him about the world. Sometimes while Darzen slept during the day, she would venture out to find herself a handsome man, take him back to the
hotel where she and Darzen slept in order to cause the man pain, sorrow, and eventually death (so Darzen could feed on his P.P.E.).
In time Darzen became the dominant person in their relationship become the alien mega villain Lord Sinister. Amelia remained enthralled with the aura of his presence and did
whatever he asked of her without question. Together they gathered super beings from the Mutant Underground to create a loyal group of body guards, servants, and soldiers to carry
out his orders. Amelia sees the other Slayers as playthings, fools, and pawns to be used and abused. She answers to no one but Lord Sinister. Whenever possible she tries to take
charge, which can either help or hinder the mission. If necessary, she will make sure if something goes wrong, someone else takes the blame. Her blind devotion to Lord Sinister
prevents her from seeing the flaw in his plan to find everlasting power to sustain his vampirism hunger. She will often hint that if he wishes to sustain himself forever, he can simply
feed on her, but he rather not deplete her psychic strength which he wants her to use in battle or carry out his orders. She doesn’t mind in either case. However, if something happens
to him and she comes to realize the error was a tactical error on both their parts, she will never forgive herself. She is that devoted to him.

May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
Suspiria Le Torneau
Back in her country, girls are not known for being mechanical engineers, designing weapons, vehicles, and high-tech weapon systems. Ada however was born a Psi-Mechanic
giving her a strange innate understanding of technology and the ability to operate, repair and build all kinds of machines, electronics and gadgets. As kid she built a radio from a
toaster, made herself a self-propelled scooter from mismatch parts, and would hack into sophisticate computer networks and the German SCRET undetected. In school she would get
teased a lot for not acting more like a girl, then she would amaze them after revealing her latest gadget and show all the boys and girls her genius. Upon graduation she was
preparing to go to college when she was approach by undercover agents who wanted to interview her. These agents worked for the Brotherhood of Armageddon and they wanted her
to use her powers to do some odd jobs for them of which she would get very well paid for. Her abilities allow BoA operatives to infiltrate the German SCRET and in time pulled of a
perfect coup that effectively crippled the agency. Having helped fulfill the BoA mission, Ada requested reassignment where she could put her talents elsewhere, in the United States.
Shortly after she arrived, she and various BoA operatives would conduct raids on major war plants and military equipment storehouses. This put her in conflict with US
S.C.R.E.T., and provided her an opportunity to examine their high-tech gear. She was impressed. A few missions she and her team attacked warehouses belonging to Triton
Industries, and with her powers she came to realize they were using alien technology. When she reported her findings, her employers told her to “back off” and she couldn’t figure out
why. Ada decided to do more investigation which immediately put her in confrontation with the Darclons who could match her in psionic power. She was soon being sought after by
diabolic witch Dreeja and her Triton Strike Team. In a confrontation, Ada was severely injured and her team destroyed when she was rescued by members of the Mutant
Underground. They took her to their base where she spent several weeks recovering. During her time there, she met with various other super beings and found safety in numbers.
Then one day two strangers came to the compound, the man was very alien looking, but his “girlfriend” insisted he wasn’t a threat to anyone. Ada having barely survived an alien
encountered decided to investigate further only to discover they both had psychic powers. Fearing she was about to be attack again, Ada was about to flee when the girl Amelia
convinced her they were friends. The alien looking man explained their goal and that she could be a part of it, and they offered her something no one ever did before, true friendship.
Ada joined Lord Sinister, Mind Fry, and the other Slayers doing more of the same of what she was doing, but also searching the globe for anything that might give her boss what
he wanted most, a means to increase his power so he might take over the world. Ada is rude and flippant. She has an enormous chip on her shoulder that she begs and dares her
opponents to knock off. When comes to inventing tech, she is brutal in her execution and values being efficient in the task. She looks for the quickest and most effective manner of
dealing with any opponent. If that means murdering innocent civilians or destroying a city block, then that is what she does. It’s not personal, it’s just using what she knows is the
weakness of most super hero types, a genuine feeling of guilt over their actions if they cause other harms. She has no such flaw and laughs it off.

She has a mechanical lab where she has work clothes, tools, diagnostic equipment, and so on. The lab has about 5 million dollars of equipment inside.
Back in her country, girls are not known for being mechanical engineers, designing weapons, vehicles, and high-tech weapon systems. Ada however was born a Psi-Mechanic
giving her a strange innate understanding of technology and the ability to operate, repair and build all kinds of machines, electronics and gadgets. As kid she built a radio from a
toaster, made herself a self-propelled scooter from mismatch parts, and would hack into sophisticate computer networks and the German SCRET undetected. In school she would get
teased a lot for not acting more like a girl, then she would amaze them after revealing her latest gadget and show all the boys and girls her genius. Upon graduation she was
preparing to go to college when she was approach by undercover agents who wanted to interview her. These agents worked for the Brotherhood of Armageddon and they wanted her
to use her powers to do some odd jobs for them of which she would get very well paid for. Her abilities allow BoA operatives to infiltrate the German SCRET and in time pulled of a
perfect coup that effectively crippled the agency. Having helped fulfill the BoA mission, Ada requested reassignment where she could put her talents elsewhere, in the United States.
Shortly after she arrived, she and various BoA operatives would conduct raids on major war plants and military equipment storehouses. This put her in conflict with US
S.C.R.E.T., and provided her an opportunity to examine their high-tech gear. She was impressed. A few missions she and her team attacked warehouses belonging to Triton
Industries, and with her powers she came to realize they were using alien technology. When she reported her findings, her employers told her to “back off” and she couldn’t figure out
why. Ada decided to do more investigation which immediately put her in confrontation with the Darclons who could match her in psionic power. She was soon being sought after by
diabolic witch Dreeja and her Triton Strike Team. In a confrontation, Ada was severely injured and her team destroyed when she was rescued by members of the Mutant
Underground. They took her to their base where she spent several weeks recovering. During her time there, she met with various other super beings and found safety in numbers.
Then one day two strangers came to the compound, the man was very alien looking, but his “girlfriend” insisted he wasn’t a threat to anyone. Ada having barely survived an alien
encountered decided to investigate further only to discover they both had psychic powers. Fearing she was about to be attack again, Ada was about to flee when the girl Amelia
convinced her they were friends. The alien looking man explained their goal and that she could be a part of it, and they offered her something no one ever did before, true friendship.
Ada joined Lord Sinister, Mind Fry, and the other Slayers doing more of the same of what she was doing, but also searching the globe for anything that might give her boss what
he wanted most, a means to increase his power so he might take over the world. Ada is rude and flippant. She has an enormous chip on her shoulder that she begs and dares her
opponents to knock off. When comes to inventing tech, she is brutal in her execution and values being efficient in the task. She looks for the quickest and most effective manner of
dealing with any opponent. If that means murdering innocent civilians or destroying a city block, then that is what she does. It’s not personal, it’s just using what she knows is the

Stone Cold
Kholodnyy kak kamen'
Pyotry doesn’t talk much about his past. He admits he was born in Moscow, Russia and as a teenager became involved in strongman and power lifting competitions. At age 18
he stopped training with his coach and started training solo. Then one day he was meet by members of the Russian SCRET who offered him a deal of a life time. He would participate
in several experiments in an attempt to replica the experiments that created the Russian SCRET Operative and current Unnatural Disaster member Wind Chill. While out in Siberia
they inject several types of experimental chemicals and steroids to make him endure sub-zero temperatures. The experiment worked but they also turned him into a stone-cold
monstrosity. He became enraged when he saw how he looked. He could revert back to his flesh form, but he was forever hairless (he loved his long hair) and it gave him blue
flesh/blood. It also made nearly invincible. He turned his cold powers and strength against those who did this to him. He then fled into the wilderness. He has never told anyone how
he got to the United States, but it was Suspiria who first meet him at the Mutant Underground. Later he was recruited by Lord Sinister and Mind Fry.
Pyotr is cold-blooded murder who takes pleasure in freezing people and using his raw power to defeat those who think their smarter than him. He is utterly ruthless and will
freeze and smash his way through anything that he feels like it. He loves owning expensive “American” things and having his way with American women.

Re: On the topic of Revised to 2nd ed conversions.....
From Aliens Unlimited Revised page 39
There are five Darclon "advisors" at the TI Development Center and Testing Facility/Fortress. These five creatures help Harding develop new energy weapons, body armor and
exoskeletons, help identify alien artifacts. One, a diabolic witch named Dreeja, is the leader of one of the Triton Strike Teams. Another pair of Darclons not affiliated with Triton
Industries are conducting their own exploration of Earth and plan on recruiting a group of super villains (and perhaps conducting experiments on mutants and super humans to unlock
the secrets of their powers and replicate them).
Well apparently, I've never paid close attention to this bit of information. This means I've got a new HU NPC who has a cannon name and purpose, but
no stats. There are also two Darcons trying to recruit some super villains or creating their own. This means after I finish the Slayers, I got a new project waiting for me.

Industries are conducting their own exploration of Earth and plan on recruiting a group of super villains (and perhaps conducting experiments on mutants and super humans to unlock
the secrets of their powers and replicate them).
Well apparently, I've never paid close attention to this bit of information. This means I've got a new HU NPC who has a cannon name and purpose, but
no stats. There are also two Darcons trying to recruit some super villains or creating their own. This means after I finish the Slayers, I got a new project waiting for me.

SKULL CRUSHER
He is the son of a wealthy Japanese immigrant and American model. His father taught his son many of his combat skills that he learned. His father when he was young was
exposed to a massive dose of radiation, but never received any noticeable side effects or ailments. In fact, he was always in perfect health. By the time Eric went to middle school, he
started growing an inch (2.5 cm) every other week and putting on 15 lbs (6.7 kg) of solid muscle. It was a wealthy private school so everyone looked the way. The football coach put
him on the team and he just rolled over everyone. By the time he was in high school, he held numerous school records and helped his team earn three state championships. He went
college at Victory City University (VCU) where he stayed only two years before getting drafted. By this time, his mutant abilities were in full bloom, making it nearly impossible for him
to sustain an injury. He opted out of school and entered the NFL draft. For a while, there were those in the organization trying to keep GIGMA from investigating potential enhanced or
super being players. Fake test and lab results were used to give him cover. On the day Eric debut on national television as a member of the Motor City Knights defensive line (tackle),
he was unaware that another super being (the running back) was also a super being. On the first play the two ended up clashing. On the third down, they went head-to-head and a
brawl ensued. Multiple people were injured trying to separate them. Both players were disqualified. By half time, GIGMA/SCRET agents arrived to take them into custody. Both of
them tried to escape; the offensive player ended getting captured. Eric escaped and was found by members of the Mutant Underground. He spent the next couple of years embittered
and angry that his prosperous life was taken from him. He soon became no better than a super criminal as he started going after those in the NFL whom he blamed. The Mutant
Underground wanted him gone before he brought the authorities to their location. He decided to join up with others who were living with Lord Sinister and Mind Fry. He soon found a
place to call home as a member of the Slayers. He was encouraged to cause as much mayhem as possible, cracking and breaking skulls. Being the team’s strongman, he’s often sent
against any powerhouses in the opponents’ ranks.
Skull crusher loves a chance to earn money and prove himself by taking out the biggest opponent he can find. He is very much a sadist and enjoys the screams of pain from his
victims. In the rare cases when he realizes he is overpowered he will run, but only to return later on in order to prove himself the most powerful one.
