[Character]Snake Hunter

[OctoberRaven]

A hypothetical character based on the events of the Champions campaign I'm playing in.

 

Unbeknownst to most, the superteam then known as the Protectors were cloned by VIPER against their knowledge. While the remnants of the group and UNTIL believe they know of all the clones, there was one that never came to light, the clone of the teleporting vigilante known as Shift.

 

Shift's clone, dubbed 'Venom' by his creators, was originally intended to kill Shift and infiltrate the Protectors to assasinate them. This fell through when Shift abrubtly quit the Protectors and fell off the radar.

 

Venom was still used as a strike soldier, but for some reason the VIPER propaganda burned into the other clones from their creation didn't quite sink in to him. Eventually he saw the evil VIPER was doing, and abandoned the group.

 

A year later, a VIPER nest was raided by a single person who killed everyone inside. All that was left as evidence of who was responsible was a note: "Courtesy of the Snake Hunter."

 

Then a new teleporting vigilante appeared, who, like Shift, had a custom-made weapon. All that the public knows is that's it's probably not Shift, as the gun seems to have no nonlethal capabilities, not to mention that while Shift wore a trenchcoat to conceal the weapon, this vigilante simply keeps it holstered. He called himself Snake Hunter.

 

 

Note: The campaign's character creation rules were 300+50, so this is how Snake Hunter is also built.
