The Sentinels

[Tom McCarthy]

Darren,

I'm quite enjoying seeing miscellaneous bits of the Champions Universe, like Leviathan and the Fabulous Five. I find myself wishing for some info on the Sentinels.

My players think they have a lead on Dr. Destroyer's whereabouts, and since Destroyer usually stands up to about 3 hero teams at a time, they want the Champions and another team onside. In particular, they want to try the Sentinels first.

Can you give me some rough guidelines as to what kinds of powers the lineup includes ? I assume Amazing Man II has transmutation powers like Amazing Man, Diamond is as he was with F5 but more experienced, and Marus has some similarities to Stingray or to comic's Namor. What about Black Rose, Bravo, or Diadem ?

Alternatively, if you've got an idea what the archetypes are for Justice Squadron, I can use them. If you've got nothing, I'll wing it or use the F5, Protectors or Freedom League.

Well, the Sentinels are next up for the HU column, but won't even start for a couple of months. You're pretty close on the three you listed, though Marus has considerably less magic and much more brick/combat skills compared to Stingray. Black Rose is a plant controller, Diadem is a mentalist, and Bravo an enhanced-stat martial-artist. All will appear in future columns, but it may take six months or so to get through them all. dw

Thanks. That's enough info that I can run them in 'narrative' mode, anyway.
