CHAR: Captain Awesome.

[Enforcer84]

Well, my world of Edean is stalling while I get my stuff together. I had a yen for some Superheroic Action so, Here's a glimpse of one the heroes from a future project, Else-Earth. My thoughts for Else Earth is that each character will have two sheets. One for the Beginning of his career (and characters will fall into 150, 250, 350, 500, 750pt templates) and one for his current status (exp added). The other Else-Earth tennant. It won't be a "Champions" Universe. All the characters will be my own. I plan on using updated, and stripped down versions of some of my HERO A Day characters so...it might seem familiar to you. This way, I can go about getting a "rogues Gallery" for Lockdown, Libra ;)anyway, here is one of the charcters. I'm posting the 350 pt starting version and the description is left intentionally sparse. Tomorrow, when I have time to get the full background for him and his team done and ready to post, I'll post the 'Current' Version. Let me know what you think.So, gentle readers, without further ado...Captain AwesomeCaptain AwesomePlayer: NPC; Starting Level

The Secret Cannot yet be told

Powers/Tactics: Well Timmy, due to my alien physiology, I am capable of flight, superhuman acts of strength and speed, nigh invulnerable to harm and quite intelligent to boot. I don't like to toot my own horn, but I am quite impressive in my might. Campaign Use: In the earlies points in his career, Captain Awesome and the Justice Power Squadron showed up in response to dangers around the San Diego Area. They arrived, thwarted evil, and disappeared. If he is encountered, Captain Awesome should simply act as the truest of true blue Heroes.

Re: CHAR: Captain Awesome.

 

I am not 100% pleased with this. But here is the Origin of the Justice Power Squadron:

 

The world can be a tough place for a boy who’s lost his father. Bobby Alston’s father was his world. James Alston was a superhero in his son’s eyes. Not only was he a good father, he had the coolest job of anyone. James was a cartoonist. He wrote and illustrated superhero comics.

James loved to tell stories of epic heroes and heroines; he got to be a kid all his life. Sharing his work with his son made it that much better. When Bobby was young, he asked his dad to make him his own comic. James developed the Justice Power Squadron; easy to understand heroes and heroines for his son. He drew pictures and scribbled notes. Geared towards his son, they began their careers as mere two dimensional heroes in the style of Saturday morning cartoons. As Bobby got older, James’ heroes evolved. When Bobby was eight, he decided he wanted to share his heroes with the world; his father had almost a thousand drawings and stories about the brave heroes of the Justice Power Squadron, and perhaps one of the comic companies he had worked for over the years would let him tell his stories to other children.

James was so excited when he sold the idea. Sure, there would be some changes, he’d been working on a new name for the team, some of the characters would change a bit too, but it was the stories that he and his son had shared and he was eager to get to work.

 

 

They found the wreckage of his car near the railroad tracks. The train had been a freight transport and there were no other casualties in the crash. Investigation found no reason for the accident and it was officially ruled a suicide.

 

Traci Alston held her son’s hand during the funeral. It was all the boy could do not to throw himself on the ground and sob; but his father had always told him to be strong and take care of his mom when he was away and he would not let him down now.

 

Argos Turannos is one of the world’s most powerful men. Even if he wasn’t Earth’s premier mentalist; he was among the wealthiest, most politically and commercially connected men in the first world. Head of the international conglomerate, think tank, and research monolith, the Hyperion Institute, his name was known all over the world.

Traci Alston was not at all sure why he was asking for her. As the regional sales associate for a computer entertainment company, she couldn’t fathom his interest; but he had requested a meeting with her none the less.

 

Bobby was surprised to find several men in black suits at his house when he got home from school. It was frightening. His mother looked nervous and a handsome older man was sitting in his father’s chair.

 

“Hello Robert,†The man said in a kind, yet authoritative voice.

“Bobby,†he corrected softly.

“Bobby, then. I, am Argos, and you…†The man paused; his smile sent a chill down Bobby’s spine, “You are a very special boy.â€

 

Bobby wished his father was there. He was scared. Something about all the men in his house, his mother looked pale but smiled cheerfully. There was something in her eyes though, something haunted.

“Why are you here?†Seeing his mother’s fear through her façade of pleasantries, Bobby squashed his own anxiety behind a determination to protect her, just like he’d promised.

“I am here for you.†Argos said.

Bobby’s throat went dry. He was suddenly beginning to understand. Things had been happening since his father had died. He’d been having headaches and strange dreams. Somewhere in his mind Bobby wished that his heroes were there to protect him and his mom.

 

There was a crash in the kitchen. Two of the men tumbled by. Argos looked at Bobby disapprovingly. Suddenly, a large, caped man stepped into the room. His face was set in a determined glare. Bobby felt a lump in his throat. It was Captain Awesome! Leader of the Justice Power Squadron! But…how?

 

“I’m afraid, gentlemen,†Captain Awesome said calmly, yet with an air of authority that nearly matched Argos’ own, “That this meeting is over. I don’t know what you are doing here, but you are not wanted.â€

 

“I see.†Argos said. He looked from the boy to the man before him. It was astounding. But he was without any of his elite and could sense several other “heroes†had appeared outside the house. While he was sure he could destroy them, he didn’t want to be deal with the press that was sure to arrive now that costumed heroes were breaking walls of the house. He motioned for his agents to leave and used his abilities to mask their departure as he had their arrival.

 

Bobby stared at his hero. Captain Awesome smiled at him and he felt safe again. It was like his father was there.

“We have to leave, young man; Ma’am.†Captain Awesome nodded to Bobby’s mother and departed.

Bobby ran to the window. All of them. All of his dad’s heroes were there. They had all come to his aid.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTES:

--gotta get Hermit to write this origin

 

 

--In Else-Earth, the Hyperion Institute is the PSI analogue. The organization, in the public eye, is a philanthropic megalith that provides education, medical reasearch, and industrial capital with the idea of uplifting the world. High profile and doing much of their work in the third world they took the name Hyperion Institute as he rode the sun chariot and brought light to the world That's thier stated goal. However, the true goal is to leverage world domination by a Psionic Master Race.

 

--In Else-Earth, there is no single unifying power origin. But there are four or five major "Meta-Origins" Psionics, Magic, Technology/Science, Cosmic Energy, etc.. Psionic Energy is almost as magic, you be a traditonal Professor X Style Telepath, a Byrne-esque Psychokinetic Superman, a Pyrokinetic, Cyberkinetic, etc...Psionics (and Magic, and Cosmic Energies...etc) have a very unique aura. They can be tracked and attacked through use of that meta effect. Argos Turannos is my heavy hitter evil mentalist. He has catagorized Psionic powers as one of three catagories:

1) Grafted (this is a psionic mutant, someone who has been genetically altered to have psionic potential where naturally there was none, etc.)

2) Primal (this would be a psionic race, the Vyranni would be a Primal Psionic)

3) Inherant (Heroes unlimited would call these guys "Natural" Psionics. The have the gift, or the potential for is from birth)

 

--Bobby is one of the most potentially powerful Inherant Psionics on the planet. His powers have been mostly dormant until now, but the stress of losing his father caused them to ripple and he was suddenly detectable by the Institute. Argos recognized his potential and went to "collect" him personally.

 

--The entire whole of the Justice Power Squadron was created by Bobby's reality control. However, his powers were augmented by something and the ectoplasmic entities never disappeared. They have been proven to be flesh and blood. What's more, they have developed memories of lives past. Each of the JPS remembers dying. Not to delve into too much metaphysics or religious areas, Bobby has somehow created "copies" of recently deceased being's souls. It is unknown at this time by anyone save for me how. *Spoiler* *Spoiler*

 

--The Justice Power Squadron is something of a myth. They appeared here and there for about a year, mostly to protect Bobby or Tracy from HI (Hyperion Institute). They later began doing good deeds and forming true lifes for themselves. At this point they changed their name from the Justice Power Squadron to the Guardians (The name James was going to use when he released the comic).

The Guardians are simply seen as another superhero team. Based in San Diego.

Height: 1.95 m	Hair: Reddish Blonde
Weight: 118.00 kg	Eyes: Green

Appearance: Archon is a handsome, larger than life man with green eyes and short reddish blonde hair. He has ready smile of perfect teeth and a sincere, personable demeanor that puts most people at ease. Children Love him. He wears a white bodysuit with a great golden "A" on his chest. This is accessorized by a blue cape, blue boots, and a set of gold bracers.Personality: Classic children's superhero show. Archon is an honorable, good natured, helpful and compassionate man. He is respectful to the elderly, fiercely protective of children and a friend to good citizens everywhere! Hart to bring to anger, but when it happens he is a terror to behold. This isn't an act for James. He was very much a Silver Age fan and has a very clear picture of what makes a hero. As he has remembered his past he has become only more motivated and projective of these ideals. Beyond the superheroing, James cares deeply for his wife and son. He watches them like a guardian angel. He understands what Bobby may become and seeks to guide his son down the right path. He has met Traci socially and entertains ideas of getting together with her, but he's unsure he wants to subject her and Bobby to the lives of a 'Superhero' family. Quote:"Don't worry Lizzy, I'll get Mr. Bigglesworth out of that tree."

"It's okay Bobby. I'm here."

Background: After his memories began to surface, James spent weeks following his wife and son. This was how he kept arriving at the nick of time against the Hyperion Institute's superpowered agents. He took his middle name as his last, realizing that as he was a) legally dead and almost unrecognizable as his former self. He slowly began working in the comics field again. He helped the other's adjust to their new lives and developed the new costumes and code names where they felt appropriate. He has taken to his new dual life well and his powers have grown as his personality has strengthened. He gets along well with his fellow heroes in the Guardians and other heroes in general. The Guardians are a fairly well known group and they work well with others, their roster hasn't changed in the seven years they have been a team; something of a record in super circles. This is mostly due to the fact that, while they have adjusted to new lives, the members often feel like outsiders among the rest of humanity. They had lives and pasts that they really can't go back to; they feel they are all they have and the fears and emotional scars are slow to heal.Powers/Tactics: "Well Timmy, due to my alien physiology, I am capable of flight, superhuman acts of strength and speed, nigh invulnerable to harm and quite intelligent to boot. I don't like to toot my own horn, but I am quite impressive in my might."

 

As he has grown into his personae, Archon has developed his powers to a much greater degree. He has become more comfortable in his own skin (increased DEX), worked out a bit (STR, CON, DEF, REC, END, STUN), His "Superhuman Speed" which was paid mostly only lip service before, has recognizable benefits now. He also has a nice suite of superhuman senses. Nothing too exotic. His powers are a combination Physical/Psionic and he's got very high psionic defenses to boot. Lastly, he has a "Brick Tricks" VPP and STR boost that allows him to do fantastic feats.

 

Lastly, the Guardians now have a secret base, special ID/Communication Cards, two vehicles, and an impressive Artificial Intelligence for their base. They have developed contacts throughout the superhero community and the law enforcement community as well.

Campaign Use: As he has matured in the last seven years into Archon, the hero once known as Captain Awesome is the leader of a super team of high regard. They probably don't have the rep of a Justice League or Avengers, but they are close. Known the world over as a staunch defender of justice, heroic ideals, and a protector of the innocent, Archon would probably rank as one of the top 20 heroes in regards to popularity/Importance to the world. He's probably top 50 in power too.

The Guardians make a great team to serve as mentors to a younger team; they are friendly, true blue heroes, and have a mystery that may or may not come out during play.

Nice general origin, good Superman homage.

 

The boy man who imagines his heroes into existance has always been one of my favorites, and adding an Elementals / Captain Trips element to it works well.

Re: CHAR: Captain Awesome.

 

I like Blackbird; nice Batman type, with a touch of Black Canary.

 

You might consider dropping the Analyze Combat to 15 or less for 7 points, and then buying her 2 Overall skill levels. Right now, her best possible success with AC gives her 2 Overall levels to guse against a single foe in any way, +1 as a complimentary skill with Find Weakness or similar skills against that foe, plus some generic knowledge. Spend the same points on 2 Overal Levels and Find Weakness 15 or less, and she can use those levels with any skill or CV at any time (becoming much more impressively skilled), plus she can still make an Analyze Combat skill roll for another + DCV against a single foe on 12 or less, or an additional +2 overall on 8 or less.

 

I'll refrain from further backseat driving.

Re: CHAR: Captain Awesome.

 

Ah, this is okay. The idea as you'll be able to see from the "updated version" is that her powers were rather nebulous and one trick ponyish. There's some shifting to be had for the mature version.

Height: 1.80 m	Hair: Black
Weight: 70.00 kg	Eyes: Brown

Appearance: A beautiful amerasian goddess. Tall and lithe, she wears a black and blue costume with a bird theme (think a cross between M&M's Raven and DC's Black Canary (classic uniform). A dark blue one piece bathing suit with black fishnet stockings (there is actually flesh colored protective leggings underneith the fishnets), a short jacked with the sleeves rolled to the elbows, designed to be worn this way without limiting movement or flexibiliy on the left breast and on the back there is a black bird design in a circular blue background. Her Billy club is worn in a holster on her right thigh. Her belt is black material with a metallic blue bird symbol. She wears a black domino mask with slighly glowing blue white lenses. Her top is cut rather daringly and she wears a black collar on her neck. She wears short black boots and gloves (fingerless). Personality: Jane's memories are all of dissapointment and failure. She'd been a sad, lonely, young woman who had taken her own life. When her psychic imprent was made into Blackbird she took to it like living in a fantasy. Unlike some of the other Guardians, she's decided to leave her old life completely behind. Her growth as a unique individual has been accelerated beacuse of this. Blackbird tends towards quiet intensity. When not in costume she can let her guarddown and her compassionate, kind nature comes through.Quote:"I know you did it. I will prove you did it. Save yourself the trouble and beatings and come with me now."

Background: Jane Wheldon doens't talk about what once was. Since her "rebirth" as Blackbird, she has thrown herself into the role. She only superficially resembles the young woman she was before, she's forged a life of her own and has no plans for looking back. Blackbird once relyed on a psionic "Deductive" ability, but a particularly crushing defeat at the hands of the Hyperion Institute greatly reduced her "Deductive Savant" abilities. However; Blackbird has since overcome this. Her skills have been hard learned, her abilities are more honed and even greater in scope than they were before. She has worked hard and is now considered one fo the fines human level martial artists on the planet. Powers/Tactics: Blackbird has forced her nebulous "Martial Arts" into a legitimate style, training in the Israeli Special Forces techniques of Krav Maga. She has become a mistress of thrown items and brings personal weaponry and some other gear into the situations now. Her combat options have openned up over the years and she has an amazing number of Skill level based "super abilities" and can be truely frighting to fight against.

She's not only capable of avoiding most blows, she's significantly tough enough to take quite a beating as well as dish it out. Her physical skills have increased tremendously, as her body has "matured".

Campaign Use: A more complete detecitve with a myriad of knowledge and science skills (she's had no formal training, so they are at base levels at this time). Her combat techniques are nearly unmatched. She still avoids overly leathal techniques.
