TheQuestionMan Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Background/History: Terry Kestler was born June 21, 19?? (20yrs old) in Bright City to Murphy Kestler, a Registered Nurse and Bobby (nee Law) Kestler, a Naturopathic Doctor. The youngest of four children, his three older sisters doted on their little brother. Ashley, Cassidy, and Kelly... They were raised in a spiritual home, eating nutritional foods, and active lifestyles. He attended public schools were like his sisters and excelled in athletics like his sisters, but he struggled academically unlike his sisters. After high school graduation he took a year off to travel the explore the United States and find himself, but Captain Chronos found him first. Terry was enjoying the Mardi Gras in New Orleans when there was a blinding flash! -- And then a funny looking man in a silver lame jumpsuit was standing in the middle of the street, where no one had been before. He stood there for a few seconds, looking all around him then focused on Terry... He smiles "Terry Kestler just as planned, I only hope I am not to late." He closed with Terry and place a glowing blue gem in the middle of his forehead. Terry heard an outraged scream echoing in his mind, followed by searing pain, and a flood of new memories. After what seemed like an eternity he opened his eyes to see Captain Chronos. "Good I was in time. You are the Harbinger of the 21st century... Good Luck!" And then he vanished Using the skills and knowledge the Psionic Gem granted him Terry flew off into the night. He spent the several months experimenting with his powers. And then using them to help people in trouble. When he returned home he surprised his family when he chose to attend Columbia University School of Law in Manhattan, New York He graduated with a Bachelor in Laws (LL.M.). During his internship with the Bright City District Attorney's Office he became a Paralegal. Using his job to keep his ear to the ground. Where people won't look twice. When he wants go some where dangerous and start asking questions. Personality/Motivation: Harbinger's unshakable conviction that with great power comes great responsibility. Fiercely determined, Harbinger never admits defeat. This has lead him to victory despite relentless attacks. Powers/Tactics: The Psionic Gem grants Psionic and Psychokinetic abilities. He is good at reducing a targets willpower to almost nothing. The target will not recover for several minutes. While in this "Mindwiped" state, targets are more vulnerable to his Mental Powers, making it easy to interrogate targets or mental commands in a targets mind. In combat Harbinger usually hangs back in battle. He finds cover and uses his Mental Powers via Line of Sight. Quote: "It's time to change your mind!" Appearance: Terry Kestler is of average height and weight with light brown eyes and hair. Unlike his sisters he lost out on the looks department, but thanks to their advice he wears fashionable suits or street wear. As Harbinger the Psionic Gem sheaths his body in a dark silhouette with wings. Surrounded by crackling electric blue light and three glowing eyes. Campaign Use/Plot Hooks: 1.) Criminal and Legal Drama, 2.) Superhero in the City, 3.) the Cabal, 4.) Madam ???, 5.) ???. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grailknight Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 I would lose the Mind Scan. Without the ability to attack through it, it can only be used as a scenario breaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuestionMan Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 I must reread Mind Scan then. A Scenario Breaker? Thank you QM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grailknight Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Yes, if you can't attack all you can do is locate people. Of course they know where you are also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbywolfe Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 I would lose the Mind Scan. Without the ability to attack through it, it can only be used as a scenario breaker. Yes, if you can't attack all you can do is locate people. Of course they know where you are also. No more of a scenario breaker than Telepathy or a lot of other abilities. Besides, wouldn't the ability to attack through the Mind Scan make it more of a "scenario breaker"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, wouldn't the ability to attack through the Mind Scan make it more of a "scenario breaker"? True, but I doubt he took the power for the purpose of being a bloodhound. As the character is currently structured, his only use of it would be to track down familiar minds (he needs some skill levels before he can reliably find the unfamiliar) or to do search and rescue.(an awesome power for a fireman or park ranger). If those are the uses the character then he should just proceed to ignore me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuestionMan Posted December 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 I do not normally play Mentalist characters. I based him on Mentala, Menton, and the PSI. I primarily want to use Mind Scan for Tracking and Search and Rescue. Skill Levels come much later. QM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
