Background/History: A female Muay Thai expert is rare. But Hattay Moksri did so, and then travelled the world to master other forms. In India to compete in an underground fight tournament. Threatened to throw a fight, she refused and then made an example of the mob enforcers sent to send her a message. This caught the attention of Instant Karma, who needed a HTH expert. She was asked to join and jumped at the chance.

Personality/Motivation: She lives for the thrill and challenge of combat.

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: A master of many Martial Arts, she's a HTH expert with few peers.

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: At 184 cm and 73 KG with long black hair and brown eyes. She wears blue pants and brown vest!

 

She does what she's designed for. But she has a couple of nice hooks.

[Mr. R]

Background/History: Pander Thet got a computer at 15. And quickly found he had a talent for it. It surprised many when he decided to go into security, both computer and physical. When he heard of what Instant Karma was doing, he approached them as their resident tech and computer expert. Now he goes into the field with them to deal with the opponents security and to provide support for his team mates.

Personality/Motivation: Prove he is smarter and better than the bad guys. Also an overwhelming curiosity!

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: A gadgeteer in a three piece suit.

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: 181 cm and 85 KG with a businessman suit and haircut!
 

 

 

I like him, but as Mr. Bennie remarked, a skill monkey can be expensive. Also to be honest he's a bit weak. That VPP could use some beefing up. I do like that he has no Martial Arts, but he needs some defensive stuff to compensate. There is a lot of room for improvement though.

Background/History: What is his real name? No one knows,and he's not telling. Otherwise he's totally unforgettable, being totally average. Except for his powers. He joined Instant Karma because they were doing good in his home city. Protection of others is all that matters to him.

Personality/Motivation: Spidy syndrome and redemption!

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: Another brick, he doesn't have a lot of raw power, but his defences and recovery abilities are what keeps him in a fight.

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: 175 cm and 80 KG with black hair and brown eyes. He wears dungarees and a red t-shirt with a brown jacket.
 

 

 

This is what I call the reverse powerhouse. He sacrifices some offence for defense. So he doesn't deal any nasty damage, but just stands there and soaks it up.

I'd give him dome Damage Reduction, just to make him MORE difficult to hurt. In any fight, he should be one of the last standing!

[Mr. R]

Leader of a VERY low key villainous organization.  He even has a few redeeming qualities, but at heart is an amoral, greedy jerk!

When I showed this guy to a friend, his first comment was "of course he's an orphan".  I agree that the background is cliche, but he  does fill a needed niche, the honourable opponent.

 

Power wise, he should NEVER get into a fight.  He's very behind the scenes, slipping into the escape hatch just as things go south!

Background/History:  Thor and Vivian Jarlsson met Srini at Cambridge when he was eight years old.  They became his protectors at school, and when he went underground, they went with him.  They are his muscle, for when he needs to get his hands dirty.

 

Personality/Motivation:  They like to fight and like money.  With Srini, they get a lot of both!

Powers/Tactics:  Strong and durable with an animalistic fighting style. It's not pretty, but it works!

Chapter Fifteen  Australasia

 

So we start with…. Australia.  We get a brief history, especially the outlaw bands called bushrangers.  We also get word about Special Power-Armoured Tactical Agents (SPARTA) and their place in fighting super crime.  Then word about Aboriginal Nations and their history as it is in Earth Prime.  We also get a special tribe with a very high tech background and their representative to Australia.  We then get Federal City, the fictional capital of the nation.  As an aside, this was not done with any other nation and though I get the reason, it feels odd to me.  Next we get a set of heroes and villains that inhabit the Federal City region.  Sydney and its crime problem is mentioned ( Think Batman type stuff), and Melbourne with is more flashy ( Superman Metropolis) is detailed.  Finally we get the Dreamtime and locations of interest in the mystic realm.

 

New Zealand and its local supers are next detailed and one is actually cool.  She could have a lot of hooks if you want to use her.

 

New Guinea is shown next.  No heroes, but some low level super crime.  

 

Finally we get the oceans surrounding and a representative from Aphritritis, a colony of Atlantis.  I like this part as we get a differing take on the undersea kingdom and see that they are not cookie cutter, but have differing social and cultural views.  

 

One more section.

[Mr. R]

The national hero, but he wants to be...... more!

Background/History: David Duncan is the fourth bearer of the title Blue Ensign. All have been family member as the procedure, with includes a pill that imbues David with great power. The downside is without daily doses, he loses the powers and may die. So far he has chafed at his position. He's assigned busy work and public appearances when he feels he could do so much more. As well he's hiding his sexuality from the public and spouting the government line and it is eating at his conscience. For now he keeps up the facade but....

Personality/Motivation: A true patriot who believes it is his duty to serve. As well his fear of being outed!

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: Classic brick. Strength, toughness, leaping and running. As well a set of heightened senses!

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: 184 cm and 82 KG with short blond hair and blue eyes. His costume is a bodysuit in the style of the Blue Ensign!

 

 

 

So given the recent changes in Australia, he could be given a larger role in any campaign set near or around the country.

Power wise he's a classic brick. It is his backstory that makes him cool!

[Mr. R]

High tech aboriginals. It fits the hidden kingdom role with great tech. It is the Wakanda of Down Under. And this is their great protector.

Background/History: Warrangina is a hidden city in the Australian outback. Hidden for years by its advanced technology, it was finally revealed but Nazi treasure seekers and forced to take its place in the world. Since then the elder chief of the tribe is also their protector called the Sky Brother. The current bearer of this mantle is Namatjiri Yingari. Educated at modern schools to bring Warrangina closer to the outside world, he donned the suit that gives him his powers when a (insert villain agency) attacked his homeland to get a hold of its technology and resources. With aid from some Australian heroes, they were repulsed. Since that time he has spent time in both worlds, as a leader of his people and as an emissary called Windjina!

Personality/Motivation: He's responsible for his tribe.

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: His suit gives him air control powers as well as fight and protection.

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: 180 cm and 82 KG aboriginal man with black hair and brown eyes!

 

 

Characters like this are cool as they can question cultural norms. That he can kick but as well is a bonus.

Power wise I like that he is a) a battle suit user with powers out side the norm and it is NOT EARTH control. Seriously we see what M&M can do when it wants to emulate other elements. I found it refreshing!

8 hours ago, Mr. R said:

 

 

 

Sydney and its crime problem is mentioned ( Think Batman type stuff), and Melbourne with is more flashy ( Superman Metropolis) is detailed. 

 

Odd. I've always thought of Melbourne as the Gotham City and Sydney as the Metropolis of Australia.

[Mr. R]

I'll give a brief synopsis of the villains there when I get to it!

[Mr. R]

The leader of the Southern Stars, ties to the Blue Ensign, and a legacy character

Background/History: Sharon Duncan is a cousin to the current Blue Ensign. A possible recipient of the process, she found she was allergic to it. But one dose was enough to unlock other powers in her. She put the training she was given to use as a superhero and is now leader of the Southern Stars!

Personality/Motivation: Spidy syndrome!

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: Insubstantial added to Martial Arts added to serious agent training and skills!

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: 158 cm and 55 KG with a blond bob and blue eyes. She wears a green body suit with golden boots and gloves and a star symbol on her chest!

 

 

 

This is Kitty Pryde, melded with someone with Shield training. And she has a TONNE of plot hooks! Add the fact that she's the teal leader and you have a cool character!

I like her!

[Mr. R]

So the Southern Stars are Australia's super team. Powerful and versatile, they make good representatives for their nation (Pay attention Canada).

So we get The Australian Spirit for above!

Deadeye the Huntsman. A bow master who is blind. Think Hawkeye and Daredevil. Add the fact that he is having a relationship with Australian Spirit and you have an interesting character!

Wandjina from above.

Dwarf Star a scientist who was the victim of an accident. He has shrinking, flight and energy blasts ability. He likes being a superhero especially with his wife being his partner.

Red Giant, wife to Dwarf Star. Same accident, but she can grow and increase her own gravitic field. She loves her powers and keep herself at 7 ft tall all the time.

Nuada Silverarm is two people. Alice McPherson, archaeologist who lost her arm in an accident. And Nuada who inhabits the silver arm she found in an Irish tomb. When she transforms into Nuada, she gains strength, resistance and wields a magical sword that cuts through many things! And while transformed she is like Firestorm, with two consiousness in one body.

Yowie was a reporter when an evil sorcerer cursed him with the form of an Australian Yeti. Strong tough and able to breath underwater, he covers the superhero beat as well as being a superhero!

[Mr. R]

The Lords of Misrule is Australia's villain team

 

The Shout, an evil sorcerer who can barely control his powers.  When he speaks, unless he is directing it, will cast some unpredictable spell.  This would be an interesting build, especially as I see him saying things just to cause chaos.

 

Battle Axe... a misandrist with the powers of an amazon warrior and a magical battle axe.  So Wonder Woman with a bad attitude.

 

Black Bushranger.  This guy is cool.  Energy pistols, check.  Electric whip, check.  Robot horse, check.  Gentleman attitude with heartless core, check.  

 

Doctor Gorgon, mad scientist with a Medusa Ray gun

 

Drop Bear, mutated koala bear.  BIG!  With a desire to HURT people.  This is the one most likely to get hit first, he's so mean!

 

She-Quoll, team martial artist and thief with a real cat motif.  Complete with working tail in her costume!  

[Mr. R]

Another Batman pastiche!  But he works.

Background/History:  Owen Lowe, a victim of his own brotherhood.  A policeman in Sydney, he was dismayed at the corruption he witnessed.  He refused to take part and was ready to report their actions, when they struck first.  He was knocked unconscious and when he awoke he found himself holding a gun, the one used to kill his wife and child.  Going underground, he procured some advanced weaponry and a high tech belt and went to war with the criminal element in the force and out of it.  Though his name is still tarnished, he got his revenge, but has continued his fight as Nighthaunt!

 

Personality/Motivation:  Justice.  It will be served!

 

Quote:  

 

Powers/Tactics:  The belt allows him to go invisible and fly.  Add the police training and a pair of utility bracers and he's well equipped for his mission!

 

Campaign Use:  

 

Appearance:  185 cm and 90 KG with brown hair and eyes.  His costume grey bodysuit with a dark mauve cape and cowl.  The bracers and belt are a golden colour!

 

 

 

So he's Sydney's Batman, complete with Rogues Gallery.

 

He works though.

 

 

[Mr. R]

And his Rogue's Gallery

Bower Bird a criminal fascinated by the colour blue. More amoral than evil.

Crime Model. At 2 meters tall and over 300 Kgs, all her crimes revolve around the beauty industry as she want to be the greatest model around.

Mentus the Mind Master who was left behind from an inter-dimensional invasion who will make a cushy life for him here.

[Mr. R]

And Melbourne's Supers scene

 

The Kelly Gang.  A group of Power Armour users.  Use Power Corp from Threat report that I detailed in another thread.

 

Madame Redback.  The controller of the local WWC cell, who has a spider motif and who's long term plan is to take over the WWC.  I like her as this shows that the WWC is NOT monolithic and has deadly internal power struggles.  Smart heroes could use this to severely weaken the WWC.  And is this happening in other cells around the world!

 

Sunhawk, an aboriginal hero with solar powers. and hopes to provide a positive role model.

 

Yellow Dragon, who heads a Vietnamese gang and plans to accumulate more powers and influence!

 

Young Gilgamesh and Enkidu.  Think Kazar, but greater strength, resistance and a saber tooth tiger!

From https://www.sbs.com.au/topics/sexuality/agenda/article/2016/08/12/definitive-timeline-lgbt-rights-australia

 

 

 

Quote

The Northern Territory has not yet legislated to allow same-sex couples to adopt.

South Australia is yet to overturn the gay panic defence.

Men who have had sex with men in the previous 12 months are barred from donating blood.

Religious schools and hospitals are exempted from LGBT anti-discrimination laws in Australia.

Same-sex marriage is still unlawful in Australia.

 

 

So I get the feeling that Anti Gay feelings are still fairly strong.  If you are a gov't sponcered super dependent on a drug held by that same gov't, and elements of it are very homophobic, you might keep it quiet for the chance to do some good!

Pretty stupid making it a major feature of the character, especially since sexuality isn't an impediment to military service or employment in the Public Service.

 

Or being elected to parliament.

I agree.  Unlike Bogatyr, he would not fear for his life coming out.  She has many of the same powers, no dependency, and she FEARS for her life.  

 

I would have him come out to dare the government to deny him.  Basically force their hand!

Background/History: Amphitritis was a colony of Atlantis. It has since gone its own way being as it is located in the Pacific Ocean and so far away. They remained hidden until recently when oil exploration lead to what they felt was an attack on their nation. Led by King Ormor, they attacked Australia,but were repulsed by the combined might of the heroes of that Nation. Eventually Ormor called off his war and tried to see thing from the point of view of the surface people. But he eventually left in confusion. Now he bides his time in his kingdom. Part of him wants war, but part want to lead his people successfully. It is a constant struggle!

Personality/Motivation: A war leader with a temper, but also a responsible ruler.

Quote: 

Powers/Tactics: Strong and resilient, he can also call forth earthquakes and tsunamis. As well the Trident allows him to summon sea creatures to his service!

Campaign Use: 

Appearance: 190 cm and 92 KG with brown eyes and green hair. He wears what appears to be green scale armour and wields a golden trident!

 

 

 

As I have said before, if you are gonna copy, make it a good one. He's Namor, from Marvel.

Attitude, temper responsibility. And he's a different type of Atlantean. As I have said before his culture is different from the other undersea country. Breaks the cookie cutter mold!

[Mr. R]

 

Chapter Sixteen to Eighteen  Antarctica, The Lost World, Sub-Terra

 

So we start with the Cold Continent.  It has a Treaty System guaranteeing no mineral or military exploitation will occour.  Most honour this treaty.  One area of interest is an under ice complex of ancient design that the UN is trying to map and decypher.  And of course the WWC has their biggest, baddest base here.  Ties to a lost race of ice people, unknown space debris and possible alien artifacts round out this section.  So lots of plot hooks.

 

Then we get to the Lost World.  This is the links to the Bermuda Triangle area.  Fall through a cave in the Himalayas.  It actually could be made into its own campaign and Green Ronin should come out with a book just on this, it is so cool.  We get a bit on premises needed to game here (Think PULP), a bit of history, some geography  and two  lost civilizations (Roman are cool, as are Incas) with a side bar for adding more to the mix if you are so inclined.  A pair of local heroes are detailed (see if you can get the homage) and some adventure ideas for adventure arcs are given.  I loved this section.  

 

Then we get Sub-Terra, which also is not really underground but more under dimension.  All the classics are here, Morlocks, Fomorians, Serpent People, Kaiju ( Cue Blue Oyster Cult, Go Go Godzilla) and places of note round out this chapter.
