  1. Scenario idea. Presuming that DEMON has Mechagents and.ARGENT sells them, I don't think that ARGENT would still like DEMON to bring on the apocalypse. Just as the Mob found that it was in bests interest to help the US in WWII, I can see that ARGENT would tip Heroes to DEMONs activity and depending on scenario, perhaps aid im the form of equipment. Untracable of course.

    that stands to reason

  2. I got a "magical Braniac" vibe from this. Also reminds me of 2 Babylon 5 Characters: The First One and the Soul Hunters.

     

     

    The Alrahomi were a highly developed species on the fast track to ascend to energy beings. Unfortunately the impending death of physical bodies atracted a being calling itself "The Preserver". It was dedicated to preserving any species it felt was going to die. And it was not asking for consent before preserving them with thier entire system into a pocketdimenson. The ascension was impossible from such a pocket dimension, leaving them trapped on the precipice of thier next Evolutionary step.

     

    But one of the Alrahomi managed to escape the entrapment, stood against the Preserver, defeated him and took his most important posession:

    The Preserver Staff. It is the means to "Preserve" a Starsystem by moving it into it's own pocketverse. It also allows the wielder to watch the Universe and sometimes enter it (presumably to make certain they do not destroy themself from within). All these functions were readily apparent for the last Alrahomi.

    But the one most important function eludes him: How to release something from the Staff or rather it's pocket dimension. It might well have never been intended in the design of the staff.

     

    While "The Perserver" was defeated and is no longer avalible for questioning, he did come from a pre-existing Civilisation. A civilsiation that had outposts across the galaxy - many places that are now accessible only through the Preserver Staff itself. But especially they had an outpost on earth. And so the path of the Last Alrahumi was set: Go to earth. And find a way to free his species from thier Imprisionment, by studying the works of the Perserves Civilisation.

     

    He has a number of odd titles given to him over the ages:

    Last and First Alrahomi

    The Blind Reader

    The Eternaly Homsick Wanderer

    The unwilling Preserver

    Carrier of the fate of a thousand worlds

    The Technomage*

    Bighead*

    Old Dude*

     

    But among earth super he is mostly known as "Big Al" (Al is short for Alrahumi)*.

     

     

    *Recent titles given to him by some serious and several less serious earth supers.

     

     

    Roles:

    He could be a questgiver of sorts.

    Some of the knowledge he needs might only exist in a pocket dimension but those can be highly dangerous, so he might hire the Heroes to explore one of them.

    He could also be a villain, driven near mad by the isolation and the burden of carrying the fate of his whole species. He did firgure out how to release a very recently preserved thing, wich he could use to blackmain the heroes into helping him (thier help for the freedom of a city or important person).

     

    As a hero or covnentional villain he would be dedicated to unlocking the secrets of the staff, wich might give him spartial manipulation powers (Portals, including Portal based Deflection, dimensional barrier shields, attacking with "shards" of pocket universes).
