Either give him a 1-point Elemental Control: International Man Of Mystery, and shave off 1 point from all his skills, or else put his Languages, KSes, rarely-used Perks, etc. into a 5-point Cosmic VPP: Cool Background, for 15 points.

Uh...yes, yes of course I thought of that, but, um...decided not to do that because.....um....hey, look at the time; gotta go....

Ahem. Well, we just finished the 1st session, and though John Wrath did not get to use all of his skills and abilities, the Hovercar sure came in handy

Will eyeball the character again to assess the feasability of this brilliant suggestion.....

All that aside however, what do you guys think of John Wrath as printed above?

OK, I bought and glanced through PRIMUS by Shelly Mactyre, and I was suprised by the level of corruption and dark dealing illustrated therein. Quite taken aback actually. I had to reevaluate several preconceptions.

Much to mull over.......

Actually, I dont feel so bad at seeing him escalate to 450 points to feel 'solid' (at that level, his Cyberline stat-boosts were always on), as the Silver Avengers appear to be in the 420 range for the most part, with one exception.

Obviously, right off the bat I treated his Cyberline treatments as a necessary weekly regimine of gene therapy (also, I put all of his equipment to recharge weekly and require service weekly, the idea being that when he goes in for his treatments the R&D boys service the Hovercar and he gets a new load out) AND further, his raised stats arent 'on' all the time; he basically can sustain boosted levels of performance for very short periods of time.

The obvious dodge is that, while compatible with Cyberline, John Wrath proved to not be as compatible as most of the other Silver Agents after selection. Presumably he is kept on due to his long experience in the field and commendable service....or maybe in my universe, Cyberline works like this, giving performance enhancement in spurts, rather than constantly......much to think about regardless......

Thanx for providing food for thought, Shelly. More to come on the direction I want to take John Wrath and his beloved PRIMUS.......

Just a quick clarification -- weekly treatment with gene therapy isn't something I included in PRIMUS (although it's a nice way to keep a grip on the character if he gets uppity)! It's more there's a massive treatment at the onset, then little periodic updates. (Check out the secret GM vault area in the CU, too.)

Additionally, who knows how much of that dark, cynical view of PRIMUS will survive a rewrite? Maybe my world view will drastically change in the next couple of years.

OK, I applied Dave Mattingly's suggestion (though it feels pretty slimy

)and threw most of his background skills into a VPP Skill Pool. Im really rethinking this, as it seems very very abusive. I have refused to let players have Skill pools in the past as a matter of fact. But, I figured what the hell; let see just how abusive it can be 5th Edition and have some fun with it.......

<table><tr> <td>Description:</td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding-left: 30px;"><div style="white-space: pre;">Stocky, grizzled man who appears to be in his early 40's. Has a knife or sword scar down the left side of his face through his eye socket; he wont talk about it. Wears a Silver Avengers uniform, but with a gun belt and modern loadbearing harness. Almost always is either smoking or chewing on a stogey, and smells like a ripe cigar, Old Spice, and testosterone. He is a "Man of Action"(tm), and is always on his toes, bristling with a visible readiness to leap into action. </div> </td></tr> <tr> <td align="left" class="header" colspan=3 style="padding: 0px;">BACKGROUND</td></tr><tr> <td colspan=3 style="padding-left: 30px;">Born in 1935 to a military family in Biloxi, he grew up a rabid patriot and joined the Army in 1953 to go to Korea where his father had fallen in battle the year before, but by the time he cleared Basic and his MOS school, the armistice had been signed (on July 27, 1953). He was stationed at Panmunjeom (Joint Security Area 1) for 1 year from 1957-1958, but that is as close as he came to the Korean War. In 1961, already a 1SG and a Ranger, Jon became involved in covert actions in Vietnam as a supposed Military Advisor, and in 1967 his LRRP unit went to MACV Recondo School at Nha Trang. After passing the 'you bet your life' trial by fire in a LRRP that saw Jon's team uncover and and rout a much larger VC force, Jon was attached with Company E LRP 51st Infantry (Airborne) and served with that unit until its disbanding on September 14, 1971. During his time in the LRRPs, he lead his team, nicknamed the 'Growling Recondos' on 37 official missions and a number of missions that officially 'never happened'. His daring successes attracted media attention, and despite their covert nature certain reporters embellished the accounts for public consumption, and 1SG John Wrath became something of a media darling in a time of a generally negative characterization of the US forces in Vietnam. The State Department and the DoA decided to take advantage of this and John, along with a handful of other 'heroes' of the war were brought back stateside in late 1971 for a USO/Public Relations tour. John was pissed by this wasting of resources and of his time, and in 1973, still stateside and attached to the Army Recruiting branch, he retired with 20 years in. He was snatched up by the CIA, entering service as a field operative as a Military Advisor in a number of small states where the CIA was establishing 'anti-Communist' resistance forces. In 1986 PRIMUS was formed, and experienced agents were acquired from other agencys. John, finishing a stint in various parts of Central and South America, submitted a request to join and was accepted despite his age (51), still being in excellent shape and extremely experienced in all manner of operations. He was was found compatible and became one of the 1st to undergo the Cyberline treatments. As a side effect of the Cyberline treatments, his aging seems to have been arrested. In the nearly 20 years of service since joining PRIMUS, Jon has not appeared to age a day; although almost 70, he still looks and had the physique of a very fit 40 or 50 year old. He ran afoul of Shadowdragon in 1998, when Shadowdragon was involved in a bit of espionage for an unrevealed employer. PRIMUS was tipped off that he was in the country when Shadowdragon made a minor error coming through Immigration with false papers, and John lead a team of other PRIMUS agents who tracked him down and arrested him. John was able to get the jump on Shadowdragon and managed to beat him in HtH combat, although in truth there were some mitigating circumstance that contributed to this victory. Shadowdragon of course escaped imprisonment and has had it out for John ever since. He has made an appearance twice since, when it was convenient to Shadowdragon's other activities.

Unlike most other Silver Avengers, Jon must undergo weekly Cyberline treatments to maintain his boosted abilities. These treatments provide him with superhuman strength, speed, and durability. As a side effect of the Cyberline treatments, Jon's aging process has been slowed significantly, and his body shows minor regenerative abilities. As a respected and senior field agent, Jon is frequently assigned equipment by PRIMUS R&D to field test. At any given time they may collect old equipment (field test complete) and give out new equipment to test. This equipment is prototypical and thus is invariably a little buggy, but often useful nonetheless. Occasionally he'll get a dud item or one that proves to be unusually fragile, which inspires a round or two of cursing. Additionally, Jon has at his service one of the prized PRIMUS Hovercars, which has an advanced anti-gravitic generator and concealed Turbo-Jets.</td></tr><tr><td align="left" class="header" colspan=3 style="padding: 0px;">PERSONALITY/MOTIVATION </td></tr><tr><td colspan=3 style="padding-left: 30px;">Patriot. Pure and simple. He loves the goddamn U.S. of A. and if you dont like it you can lump it. He is an American of the old skool; in fact, he's so old skool, he's PRE-skool. In Nam he was a straight shooter, and a decade of teaching indigenous 'freedom fighter' and doing slimy things for the CIA in the name of National Security have had no dilluting affect on his patriotism. "In the National Interests" is an absolution of just about anything in his mind. He has the morals of a soldier, and will kill when he deems it necessary, and is known for his 'accomplish the mission at any cost' mentality. Some criminals have been known to just turn themselves in to his without a fight, knowing that this Silver Agent wont treat them with kid gloves. </td></tr></table>Character created with <a href="http://www.herogames.com" target="new">Hero Designer</a> (version 1.20)

I had some points left over, so I spruced up the hovercar a bit. I added a Megaphone and Sirens, and changed the Suppress Movement Tractor beam to a Drain Move, added another fuel charge for the flight, and bumped up the Def and Body a hair.

Hey Shrike, you got a website for Jon? I added the url of this thread to Wraithes website for later reference. She is my PRIMUS agent, and I like Nick Fury. :-)

Sorry; I have a website, but I havent touched it for several years now

You can however feel free to copy John Wrath (and his trusty Hovercar) and use him for whatever you see fit; just put a byline (Ed Hastings\Killer Shrike & Jon Bristow) on it.

OK, with the release of Millenium City we finally had a 5th Ed Silver Avenger to look at. So, we made some tweaks to John Wrath. His VPP has also been switched out since the last post. The R&D boys have been busy.....
