Re: Tuesday July 27th, 2004

 

I just thought you might like to see what you've done so far, and ask if you could check to see if I put everyone where they should go.

 

Keep up the great work and thanks again!

Appearance: Derek has a lithe build (belieing his strength )and wears a white tee shirt with a blue, tilted "halo" over his heart. He wears dark gray pants and black combat boots. His gloves have plates over the back of his hands, and are dark gray. He wears a blue belt with a black scabbard for his sword. Over this he wears a long pale gray duster with a blue halo on the left breast and white "wing" designs on the back.Personality: The Blue Saint has had a rather brief career. He has been active in the UNTIL SLP for three years and his first recorded activity was a year before that. His origins are unknown, neither is his reasoning behind the name. Quote:"Tsk, tsk, Mechanon. That was not nice."Background: Derek McGowan is a specialist. A technology assassin. He is a powerful cyberkinetic with espionage and intense physical training. He loves technology, but he has sworn to defend humanity from those who abuse it. He has an excellent working relationship with UNTIL and is a member of ther Superhero Liason program. The source of his powers are assumed mutation but since he can effect mutant scanners he doesn't show up as one. Powers/Tactics: Derek is essentially a cyberkinetic ninja. He has trained in the the arts of Hapkido (to be different) and his skulking skills are top notch. He is a computer savant (but says his powers made that a foregone conclusion and doesn't consider himself a genius. In combat he generally concentrates on foes he has the most success with, robots, cyborgs, powered armor, and hi-tech gunmen. In that order. If he doesn't have any of those to choose from he tends to play by ear and seek out foes that are closer to his Martial Arts skill level.Campaign Use: A decent solo hero or team fodder when you need it. He's quite expensive though, if you want to use him drop his MP to about 40 pts and scale back the bigger powers. Drop some of them altogether. Also dropping his physical stats will make a more "agent" class fighter. To amp him up increase his DEX and SPD. Give him a small gadget pool.

Remodeling Champions Universe: Segment 4; Re: The Protectors of New York.

 

In the lat 70's and early 80's a team appeared in New York City, setting themselves up as media darlings and populist rivals to the older more experienced Sentinels. The founding members, Crusader, Champion, Firebug, Crime Fighter, and Starburst garner a lot of attention and capture the imagination of New York. The team in dynamic, and its spokesman, Starburst, is a naturally gifted speaker and seems to love the media attention; the Protectors are everywhere it seems. Their ranks grow rather than change, adding the extra terrestrial android, Avar-7 to the mix in their first year. They eventually end with six full time members and four "reservists", members who take part when called upon but don't spend as much time with the team.

As quickly as they arrived, it seemed they were gone. The capture and subsequent "reprogramming" of Avar-7 by the maniacal Dr. Destroyer leads the team into a trap. The team escapes, but Avar-7 is destroyed. Champion retires after his personal life falls apart due to his extramarital affair with Rhiannon, the deaths of White Witch and Crusader in the mid 80's, spells the team's doom, which was finalized with the arrest, and later conviction, of Starburst in a rape trial that rocked the superhuman community for years.

 

April 17th, 1975: The Protectors of New York are formed. Original lineup consists of Crusader, Crime Fighter, Firebug, Champion, and Starburst.

 

July 2nd, 1975: The Protectors encounter the alien Avar-7. After a brief skirmish, the android is taken in by the team for "protective custody". Shortly thereafter, Avar-7 joins the team officially.

 

September 23rd, 1975: Rhiannon, a superheroine claiming to be the avatar of the Celtic Goddess, encounters the team. They work together on several missions, but Rhiannon does not joint the team officially. She is given "reserve" status.

 

October 12th, 1975: The Protectors and Sentinels do battle with Dr Destroyer for the first time. Destroyer is defeated by Avar-7's "phase touch" attack. A phalanx of Destroyer's agents prevent his capture.

 

January 1st, 1976: Crusader (amid rumors of an acrimonious relationship with Crime Fighter) leaves active status of the team. Maintaining his "reserve" status.

 

January 6th, 1976: White Witch, a lovely enchantress from France relocates to the US. She works with the Protectors as a reservist for a year but joins "Active membership" in 1977.

 

March 8th, 1976: The Amazing Action Man, a mutant with phenomenal agility and natural combat ability joins the team.

 

March 11th, 1976: Crusader, starting to see the end of his illustrious career more clearly now, takes a young partner to train. The youth takes the name Squire.

 

April 3rd, 1976: Firebug goes to reserve duty as she marries her boyfriend of 4 years.

 

April 30th, 1976: The Protectors offer membership to Microman II, formerly of the Sentinels, he turns them down.

 

August 11th, 1976: The Empyrean traitor Overseer battles Champion in the skies of New York. Champion defeats the Overseer but suffers grievous wounds. He is healed by the touch of Rhiannon.

 

February 3rd, 1977: Overseer and his agents (the Cabal) attack New York again. The Protectors, Rhiannon, Crusader, Squire, and Firebug reunite to protect the city. A young mentalist, Assentia, joins the team.

 

July 4th, 1979: Firebug gives birth to her first child, a daughter named Jillian.

 

June 5th 1982: Crusader and Squire, finding it difficult to see eye to eye anymore part ways. The young man who was Squire returns the costume and identity so that Crusader can find a new pupil.

 

September 1st, 1982: Crusader and Squire II are captured by one of Crusader's Rogues Gallery, the lovely and dangerous Countess. During their capture Countess, using drug treatments and the telepathic aid of an unknown agent, "couples" with Crusader, the man she had long desired for a husband.

 

September 12th 1982: the second Squire, unbeknownst to Crusader, begins taking a "performance enhancement" serum. The effects are gradual but impressive; the side effects are also gradual and impressive.

 

October 29th, 1982: The second Squire, now calling himself Crusade, kills his mentor and begins his violent vigilante career.

 

January 6th, 1983: Crime Fighter is critically injured attempting to bring Crusade to justice.

 

February 6th, 1983: Dr. Destroyer captures Avar-7 and reprograms the android to lead the team into a trap. The Protectors, plus their three remaining reservists manage to escape Destroyer's clutches, but Avar-7, driven mad by the conflicting programs, ends his existence in a moment of lucidity, enabling the team to escape.

 

February 8th, 1983: Champion reveals to the team that he has split from his wife to continue his affair with Rhiannon. The news makes the papers as the angry former wife reveals Champion's identity and infidelity to the world.

 

March 19th, 1983: White Witch is found murdered in the Protector's Base. The mystery is solved by a recently returned to duty Crime Fighter. The murderer, a fellow mystic who had followed White Witch from Europe, was captured and imprisoned. Her name was never known.

 

May 7th, 1983: Rhianon gives birth to a son.

 

June 17th, 1983: Countess appears before a stunned Crime Fighter in his secret Identity, holding an infant child. Explaining that the child is hers and Crusader's and that she has finally run out of places to hide, Countess asks Crime Fighter to look after her child. As the two converse, assassins from the Mist Viper ninja clan attack. The two former foes defeat the agents, but Countess, already weakened, does not survive the confrontation. Crime Fighter retires to raise the boy.

 

October 8th, 1983: Starburst is arrested and charged with rape. His trial is one of the most widely discussed and reported scandals in the 20th century. He is found guilty and sentenced to 15 years in prison. Seemingly enraged beyond measure, he attempts to flee the courthouse but is stopped, and violently so, by his former team mates, Champion and Rhiannon. After the trial Champion and Rhiannon are never seen again.

This also marks the end of the Protectors.

 

January 16th, 1984: The original Squire once again dons his costume and seeks out Crusade to avenge the death of his mentor.

 

July 15th, 1986: After a long hunt and several inconclusive encounters, Squire defeats Crusade in combat and brings the murderer to justice.

 

Nice heh?

You might ask why I went to the trouble of writing up a history of a defunct superteam. Well, you probably wouldn't ask, you all know me too well. I plan on writing up the original Protectors and their legacies. Two are obvious, others are not. I wrote this first. Well just see how the characters flow.

 

Watch this space!

Height: 1.84 m	Hair: Brown
Weight: 80.00 kg	Eyes: Brown

Appearance: Above average height and well built, Crusader wore a gray body suit with a black "Tabbard" design on the torso and upper legs. A white Cross was on his chest. His gloves and boots were black with white stipes on the tops, his mask was gray and left his mouth and hair uncovored. In his costumed identity, he wore a red wig. His belts and utility compartments were white.Personality: Sam Saunders always felt a deep obligation to help people. His family legacy was important to him as was honor and justice. He was a dedicated crime fighter, an altruistic man in his secret identity, often attending non-denominal churches and volunteering. As the Crusader, he portrayed a grim, determined man, but that was mostly an act. Saunders was a man who loved life. He regretted later in his career never working with others before the Protectors, feeling he might have made more of an impact as the member of a group.Quote:"Easy now, Dr. Cro, all this violence is murder on your heart."Background: There always was the call to justice in the Saunders family. Samual's ancestor had been a US Marshall in California. As the family migrated back east, they often became police officers, sherrifs, a few even joined the Justice Department. Sam's father had been a DEA agent. Sam had his eyes on the CIA. It was something different. Still in service of his country but in exotic locations, wrought with danger and intrigue. Sam was a natural, a physical wunderkind with a brilliant, analytical mind. He was recruited at a young age and rose rapidly. He was chosen in 1970 for a deep cover mission. He was to infiltrate VIPER. The 70's had been unkind to VIPER in America, but elsewhere in the world, they were still a viable threat. Sam infiltrated VIPER and was instrumental in dealing the organization a series of blows in Europe. However, he was eventually caught. The Commander that caught him decided to turn him into a weapon under VIPER's control; both to harness his potential and to cause the CIA to suffer for their insulence. The plan was less than successful. Using VIPER mentalist and traditional brainwashing techniques, Sam was turned into an assassin. His physical talents were pushed to their peak and he was sent on his first mission. Things went badly. The target, a top man at the Department of Justice had been a childhood mentor to Sam. This helped him break the conditioning. The team of agents that had been sent to manage him were found, beaten but alive, a few days later.

The Crusader began his mission shortly afterwards.

Samual Saunders fought the good fight as Crusader for almost a decade before joining the Protectors. He had been a loner. His distaste for authoritative figures and reliance on only himself made it hard to form partnerships. But he decided the team might be useful if he could steer them. Initially, Crusader found working with the less experienced Crime Fighter to be an exasperating experience. They were very similar in style and attitudes, but Crime Fighter was simply not as gifted as Crusader in combat or detective work. The only place he really outshone Crusader was the checkbook. Crime Fighter bankrolled the Protectors and had a lovely arsenal of gadgets, vehicles, and the best crime lab money could buy. As the weeks turned to months, however, Crusader found that his younger team mate did not resent him but actually sought out his guidance. Saunders began teaching the younger man the tricks of the trade. Starburst, however, was another story. The glory seeking engergy projector rubbed Crusader the wrong way from the beginning. It was his constant need for attention that drove Crusader to inactive duty on the team.

Once away from the team Sam began to see that he missed teaching Crime Fighter the finer points of his namesake trade. Crusader also realized he was getting older in a profession that ravaged one's body unless you were superhuman like Champion. Deciding that he wanted to have a hand at training the next generation, Saunders found a student in the form of Eric James. Similar to his mentor, Eric was a physical and mental marvel. One of the most sought after student athletes in the New York area, he dropped out of the spotlight when his parents were killed during a robbery at their home. Saunders took the boy under his wing as Crusader. Eric took the name Squire. At first things were great, but DuPree rebelled often, Crusader didn't know how to help the boy deal with his anger and it often got in the way of their mission. Eventually, Squire broke off their partnership and "retired". Crusader was disheartened, but kept his eyes open for another pupil. He found it in Bart Lee, Bart was a gang member who wanted to go straight. Crusader helped him and they began training together. Bart struggled occasionally with the physical demands of the job. He found himself looking for ways to gain an edge. It was through some of his old contacts that he discovered a "super steroid" that was to be completely invisible to detection and very potent. Bart began taking the stuff and his improvement was almost immediatly noticeable. Crusader was pleased with his student's progress and Bart enjoyed the praise and rush he got from being so formidible. Sadly, the drug's effects were both addictive and debilitating. Bart began to lose touch with reality. He begin to feel that Crusader was slowing down. He worried for his mentor, feeling that perhaps he should abandon the identity and let him carry the banner now. Their discussions often turned towards Squire's ascendance to the title of Crusader, and at first Sam was amused. This didn't last long as he began to notice the changes in Bart's attitudes and his increasingly violent methods. Bart had decided at this time to hold back in training so as not to alarm Sam with his enhanced abilities, but he wasn't as good at hiding it as he thought. Sam found out Bart's methods and the argument that insued turned violent. When it was done Sam left his pupil on the floor, telling him that the drugs might have made him a "Man of Steel" but it was still the mind that won the battles.

Bart disappered into the night, he then began stalking the Crusader, and though his teacher was brilliant and able to ellude him for months, his obsession finally payed off as he found and completely boobytrapped one of the Crusader's safehouses.

Sam was captured and subsequently beaten to death by his student. When the news of this got out, the former Protectors gathered to pay respects to their fallen comrade. Eric James took up the identity of Squire again and in time, brought Bart, now calling himself Crusade, to justice.

Powers/Tactics: A brilliant detective and skilled martial artist, Crusader later in his career backed these up with an extensive "utility belt". He tended to rely on his fists to win the day.Campaign Use: Crusader is a "World's Greatest Detective" style crimefighter. Known in criminal circles for his skill in combat but feared for his mind. He gathered an odd assortment of criminal rivals who seemed to be in villainy for the simple pleasure of matching wits with him. If you want to emphesize the mind more, drop his DEX/SPD to 23/5 and his DC's to 2. If you want to make him one of the greatest fighters on the planet, increase the DEX/SPD to 30/7 and add 2 DC's and 2 Overall Levels. You could also give him a VPP to represent an extensive gadget arsenal.

Height: 1.86 m	Hair: Blonde
Weight: 76.00 kg	Eyes: Blue

Appearance: Taken off the Champions 3rd edition cover. Crime Fighter wore a very un-"Dark Knightish" green and gold costume with cape and cowl. His gadget belts are gold, The body suit was green the cape gold with a green lining. His mask was green with a gold bar down the middle of his face. His mouth and nose were visible.Personality: Athhough his life was awash with trial, Bruce came away relatively normal. He absorbed Brandon's lessons like a sponge and devoted himself to just causes and attractive women. When he found himself in Brandon's roll he never hesitated. Once William Samual Penn was old enough to understand, Bruce told him his true origins and his legacy. It is Bruce who sees to his training and upbringin as a young detective and combatant.

As Crime Fighter, Bruce was a happy go lucky seeker of danger and thrills. He hid his responsible nature behind the frivolity of his costumed identity.

Quote:"This is where Justice checks in villain!"

"Man, I can't believe I just said that!"

Background: Bruce Penn lost his mother to cancer when he was five. He lost his father to prison when he was eleven. His father, a corrupt business tycoon died in prison shortly after his trial. Accused of embezzeling funds, insider trading, and corruption, Bruce Sr. was a fallen star of the business world. Bruce jr. was now being raised by his uncle Brandon, the black sheep of a rich, aristocratic family. Brandon was a musician and world traveller. He had made his living on his own and despised the family that had spurned him and his nephew after the boy's father "failed" them by being caught.

Brandon taught young Bruce alot about life and justice. He never failed to point out how justice and righteousnes needed constant vigilance. Brandon himself had donated large amounts of his personal fortune in backing men and causes he found just. The two traveled the world three times over before Bruce was seventeen. When he entered college, Bruce studied law. He was determined to earn his own way as Brandon had, but fate intervened. The man who killed Bruce Sr. in prison returned to collect the money owed by Bruce's grandfather, Bertrund Penn. Penn had simply pointed the killer in Bruce and Brandon's direction in hopes that the violent misanthrope would kill them and sack their house. That way he wouldn't have to deal with them any longer. Brandon managed to capture the would be assassin but was wounded critically in the process. He died a few short weeks later. Alone in the world, Bruce, who had pieced together his family secrets, began to train for his new career. He would bring them to justice.

Seven years later, Crime Fighter made his debut. He brought down the Penn Family patriarch and many of his aunts and uncles as well. Then he put his vast inheritance to good use, donating a significant portion to charity and bankrolling the Protectors.

After a nice career, Crime Fighter encountered one of the enemies of his ally and mentor, Crusader. She explained that the child in her arms was Cruaders, though he never got the chance to learn of such things as he was slain shortly before the birth of the child. Shortly after learning this, Bruce and the Countess were beset upon by her enemies, the Mist Viper ninja. Though they were able to protect the baby and defeat the ninja, the Countess died from her wounds shortly afterwards. Bruce adopted the baby and began to raise the boy. Seeing his role as father more important at the moment, he retired from crime fighting.

Powers/Tactics: Crime Fighter was the second fiddle detective and fighter compared to Crusader in the Protectors. He relied on his superior technology and gadgets to win the day. Though Crusader adopted them himself. By the time he had ended his career, Crime Fighter was a very capable detective. Campaign Use: Crime Fighter was the second tier Crusader on the team. He should remain thus. So if you adjust Crusader, adjust Crime Fighter. to make him less combative, drop his STR to 15, his DEX to 21, PD & ED to 6, and his STUN to 35. To improve him raise DEX/SPD to 26/6.

Height: 1.68 m	Hair: Blonde
Weight: 59.00 kg	Eyes: Blue

Appearance: In her prime, Natalie was a beautiful woman with blonde hair, blue eyes, and a blue and white costume on which a red bug was on her chest. She wore high boots and gloves (in red) and a red domino mask. The costume appeared to be a one piece bathing suit in blue with white leggings and arms.Personality: A very responsible woman. Firebug, was an excitable but controlled heroine. She felt liberated by her powers but had a keen awareness of how deadly they could be. Now she is a spokeswoman for mutant rights and a mover and shaker in politics. She has not revealed her former identity as Firebug to the public however.Quote:"Light my fire, baby."Background: Natalie Haas was born in 1955 to school teachers. Her superhuman powers were evident from the time she was thirteen. Her parents helped her study and control them and taught her responsibility. She became a costumed heroine in 1975 at the age of twenty. Her folks worried but were unable to keep her from her dreams. She met Brian Welsh when she was a senior in highschool; it was tough for natalie to juggle a career as a superheroine and member of the famous Protectors of New York and keep up with her studies, but with her parents' help she Graduated from college in 1978. She and Brian got married in 79 and had their first child, Jillian in 82. Their son, Johnathan was born in 1986.

 

She has been in retirment for nearly 25 years now. She has maintained her fitness and power control regimens and looks on with a slightly over protective gaze at her children, now 22 and 18, and both possessing superhuman powers. She is steering them towards the next generation of the Protectors founders, in the hopes that they will succeed where she felt her team had failed.

Powers/Tactics: A rather vanilla energy projector. She has decent control over the flames she weilds. This write up is for her in her days as a Protector. She had a tendancy to stay airborne and fight from a distance.Campaign Use: A retired heroine. She could be an excellent teacher of young mutants. If you want to run her as an unsure youngster, drop her MP to 62 pts and eliminate the firey prison. If you'd like to run her as her "more mature" phase. Lower her STR to 8 and her END to 40. However, her powers and control over them should be improcved. Give her MP an increase of 25-30 points and increase the attacks to fit. Add some more fire tricks (pyrokinisis, immolation, dessication, see the USPD for ideas) and give her another 3 levels with the Multipower.

Appearance: Gwendolyn was a lovely young woman with a lush build and long flowing snow-white hair. Her eyes were green and she dressed somewhere between vampy movie sorceress and flower child always in various shades of white and pale colors to accent the various garments.Personality: Gwendolyn was good natured, helpful, friendly, and a bit naive. She was also frightened of Gilbert and at the same time felt she couldn't go to her family with the information because no one would believe her, Gilbert was a respected member of the family and she was just a flighty young girl. Gwendolyn was wrong about her family and once her murderer was caught his torment and punishment was far more than any jail sentence could inflict.Quote:"Glorious strands of the silver clouds, bind my foes in gossamer shrouds!"Background: Gwendolyn came from a long line of magicians. Her family included members of both the Trismegistus Council and Circle of the Scarlet Moon. She grew up on the "good" side of the family and spent her formative years with her relatives from all over the world. During a prolonged stay in France studying with her second cousin Gilbert, she and Gilbert had a dalliance that was far more courtly than carnal, but she felt wrong about it anyway. She broke it off and found to her horror, that Gilbert was not what he appeared. Barely escaping with her life she made her way to the United States. She had family in New York and she felt she could be safe there.

Once over in the states she began to use her magical might to aid the citizens there. She worked on and off with the Protectors and had a brief tryst with Crime Fighter. Sadly, Gilbert was far more persistant than she had dreamed and he found and murdered her.

Gilbert almost escaped but Crime Fighter wouldn't let Gwendolyn's death go unsolved. He brought other mystics into the investigation and Gilbert was caught.

Powers/Tactics: White Witch was a standard academic sorceress. Her powers came mostly from her innate spell use. Campaign Use: White Whitch is a classic supermage. Thanks to the Arcane World's HDC file I have a bunch of spells to work with. I went with a big ole' VPP to represent her versatility. If you want to limit her, give her her spells in a MP or in their "Pure" form. Drop her active points to 90 or below.

To make her tougher give her a few more relics.

When the team folded he soldiered on for a few more years, calling it quits in 1990 and openning a dojo. Quote:"I hope you are ready for some Action!"Background: Adam Watson is a low-level mutant with superhuman agility and reation speed. He is also in prime physical condition and capable of withstanding greater damage than the average fighter. He fought crime in the streets of New York for a while and found himself working with the Protectors every so often. He was asked to join the team and jumped at the chance. Sadly, the team was headed for the end and he could only watch from the inside. Powers/Tactics: Superhuman agility, speed, and senses. Skilled with a general set of martial arts maneuvers. Campaign Use: A lower echelon Daredevil clone. If you want him to serve as a beginning character drop his contacs, a few of his skill levels, and lower DEX/SPD to 27/6. To make him better defined, give him some gadgets, increase his martial arts repetoire and add some CSLs

Re: Tuesday, August 3rd, 2004

 

I am happy and sad.

 

On the one hand, I am almost 3 weeks behind.

On the Other Hand I am almost done. A little more than two months and I will have posted (more or less) 365 characters from my champions world.

 

On the One hand, I have failed to put art on all the pictures

On the Other Hand, I have 2 cool Storn Cook pieces.

 

On the one hand I've recycled some characters and I didn't want to.

On the Other Hand...I've had a blast and gotten more than my fair share of compliments and Rep.

 

I'll need something for next year.

 

Thanks to everyone who has stuck around.

I'll catch up real soon.
