Christopher R Taylor got a reaction from rjd59 in 6th Edition Conversions
Surprise! In various places of the 4th edition rules there was a character mentioned and used for examples called "Sipristi" but that character was never actually written up anywhere. You got a sense of the character as a martial arist/ninja type, and that the name is a variant on an oath used by French characters in fiction "Sapristi!" meaning roughly "good lord!" or "good heavens!"
Well Aaron Allston wrote her up for Ninja Hero, and here's her full character sheet: a half-Italian, half-Japanese woman who is a lawyer by day and a ninja by night fighting injustice and to help children. She's an Asian girl with green eyes, which, as Jack Burton knows, is impossible! But very special.

The final member of Yoosoo: Tsuchi, or Earth. A tragic figure, he's as miserable as his picture seems like he is (which I tried to play up by a bottom-up lighting scheme). A promising young sumo wrestler, by 18 he was dominating the sport until he was revealed to be a mutant and his power kept growing. Thrown out of the sport, disgraced, and humiliated, the young man is despondant and seeks death indirectly by taking foolish risks. He's in love with Wood (Kami No Hayashi, above) but is convinced this cannot ever be, so its just one more way to be miserable.
I really like this kind of villain, because smart and well played characters can reach out to them and move them away from their status to redeem them, as it were.
Tsuchi is ... well he's broken. He's a character I wouldn't allow anyone to build. Hugely mobile with his leaping ability, incredibly strong, and nearly impossible to put down, he'd be a handful just on his own, but with the entire team... you better be a pretty experienced supergroup. He will not miss very often (almost never, with a 14 OCV grab) and does horrendous damage. He doesn't have any specialty defenses (life support, power/mental/flash defense) so that's your only real hope.

Ninja Hero had a supervillain team called Yoosoo in it, with a theme of Japanese Elements. They were a pretty effective group I used a couple of times and the first on the block is Hi or "fire". A modern day samurai with magical armor and the power to summon his weapons to him (as long as they aren't more than 30m away), Hi is very loyal to his masters and seeks to overcome the shame of his father's (although in this era grandfather makes more sense) failure to successfully crash a kamikaze plane into a US warship. One aspect of his build I particularly liked is that he's so rigid in his honor and thinking that ambush and treacherous attacks are stunning to him, literally: he has a vulnerability.

I think these builds aren't as familiar and beloved as some but they're worth looking over. Allston did a great job with Ninja Hero and these villains can add a lot to any Champions game. They are an easy plug in for Japanese- and Chinese-themed villains for a GM to throw at their heroes.

Its Ninja Hero time! This is the first Ninja Hero book put out, 4th edition with Aaron Allston writing. First on the block is Ba Kien, who gave me fits. Unfortunately, he had stats that were Hero Form Only... but only showed the full stats, so I had to pull out what they were without turning into Ba Kien However, he has almost exactly normal human stats, as it turned out.
This is a master super villain, with minions, a base, and so on. He even has dragons. *edited: added dragons as followers

Its Ninja Hero time! This is the first Ninja Hero book put out, 4th edition with Aaron Allston writing. First on the block is Ba Kien, who gave me fits.

Dr Wraithe, the guy behind the whole mess. By picking up the magic amulet to study, the entire scenario begins. One of the reasons I liked this module is that it presented some moral dilemmas: superheroes by their very nature are vigilante types that work outside the law to punish and defeat criminals who otherwise would avoid justice. How far should they go? How much can they justify?
He had 1/2 END on almost all of his multipower, but back in 3rd edition, everything cost 1 END/5 active points so effectively now everything is already half endurance so I didn't bother.

OK First of the Protectors from Serve and Protect. These characters really feel like they are from a campaign, and I suspect that the module uses the guys from Scott Heine's Champions group. Scott used to be pretty active on the old Hero email group, but I'm not sure he's busy online any more.
All members of the Protectors have two pieces of equipment: a two way radio and polarized flash defense contacts. For some, the contacts also give UV vision. They also are all trained in coordinated attacks, so I gave them Teamwork as well.
Ace is a martial artist with a pretty typical skillset and the ability to turn invisible. She had 3rd edition pre-Strike Force Martial Arts (no style, just generic) which means just a multiplier to strength damage, so I gave her an interesting array of highly skilled maneuvers.

Also, the paper minis to print out and use, if you ever run the module. After all, there's no point in doing these rebuilds if people don't play and use them

And finally, Silverfist. Permanently trapped in a suit of alien design, he went from boxing champ to freak who can't stand people mocking him. This is one of my favorite character concept designs: the melee based energy projector. Not really a martial artist (although he has boxing), but a damage guy who fights hand-to-hand. He's built with 14- armor so when I did the coloring I wasn't 100% clear on if the armor covered him totally or just on his chest, head, hands, and feet.
Silverfist is my final Protectors build, and I'll either start doing Ninja Hero (if the copy I ordered shows up tomorrow) or maybe Kingdom of Chamipions. Tons of characters in that bad boy.

Renegade, a team brick. He's pretty simple and straight forward a character, although the build has 100 endurance, and he only has basic abilities that use any END (strength and movement) so I'm not sure what on earth they did it for. He's a superhero in the tradition of his dad, Captain Thunder who died passing on his powers to Renegade. Framed for murder, the Protectors took him in and gave him a new identity. His sheet doesn't list it but all the other members had flash defense in their contacts, so I added it to him as well.

When I ran the To Serve and Protect module in '92, the players really liked it. It was about 5 sessions worth and by the end, a couple of the Protectors had lost their powers, the base was destroyed, Dr Wraithe vanished entirely (and showed up later increased in power as a super-vigilante trying to clean up Detroit), Renegade had become a Kwai Chang Caine type in leathers on a motorcycle wandering America, and Doc Sonic had a romance with one of the PCs. It was very successful overall.
The artist used a lot of zipatone on the illustrations, which works okay for black and white images, but its a bear to color because I have to clean out all those dots.
