  2. Tower - Champions: the Agents of UNTIL

    in Champions

    Posted

    Ha!  I'll do just that.  Freakboy's suggestion actually provides enough points to "put back" his INT and skills to what I wanted before those pesky point restrictions kicked in.  

     

    That said, I sent you an email earlier today about Tower's small mode being on your character sheet. I guess one of the few things Dan Simon never counted on was multiform or summon (specific being) being needed.

    PD and ED are not part of his Growth/Shrinking but a part of his new natural state.

     

    REC is 7/9 (when using Way Big!) it is low because of two things:  Points (REC is expensive) and the fact he gets winded quicker than other Bricks of his range is a weakness.

    Chimera

    Origin Story:

    Andrea Andretti-Berlusconi is the youngest daughter of former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.  Many would have thought her life trajectory to be headed in the business or political arenas, or even that of indolent heiress on the Adriatic coast.  People who thought that never met her, or knew of her keen intellect.  Science was what drove her.   When she attended college she further distanced herself from her family’s desires for her future by studying abroad and taking internships in France and the United Kingdom.   Time and distance however have not stopped her family from interfering in her personal affairs.

    As a young post doctoral student she worked with an UNTIL team trying to decipher the arcane technologies used by the dreaded Doctor Destroyer in his attempt to conquer the world.  It was while working with this group that she came upon the scarab.  The item, a relic of a bygone era, had been seized in one of the few successful sorties against the Doctor.  Even though the plasma cannon she had been working on had been devouring her attention, something about the way it shimmered in the containment field intrigued her.  To this day Andrea doesn’t know why she lifted the lid, but the next thing she remembered was waking up on the beach, of Majorca over 1500 kilometers away from the lab.  As she made her way along the shore to the nearest hotel, she scratched what she thought was an itch from the salt water on her back and was shocked to find that a hard shell had attached itself to her back just above her shoulder blades.  No amount of scrubbing or prying or later praying would get it off.

    Careful inspection using a handheld mirror revealed it to be the scarab from the UNTIL case.   She knew a number of things then, first that she had seen a number of lab rats and did not want to become one herself, and two that the scarab was hers and she was its.  Calling her boss on the hotel phone she tried to explain that she had taken ill, only to be overwhelmed by his concern that she had actually survived the attack on the lab.  It seems that minions of Destroyer had infiltrated the lab and she was declared missing over three days ago.  Shaken by confirmation of the extent of her blackout, she informed him that she would return to UNTIL as soon as possible.

    The Destroyer war raged.

    Again circumstances placed Andrea on the front lines of the greater conflict.  Andrea was working as an UNTIL tech.  Strictly supporting role, her orders said.  Wait until the fighting is over and swoop in and take anything the Destroyer might have left behind.   Regrettably,  no plans survive first contact.  One of Destroyer’s Minions, the Gladiator decided that the unmarked UNTIL van parked right outside the battlezone was just too appealing a target.  Andrea felt a tingle as she watched the axe scythe its way towards her.  Within a moment she was surrounded by a hard armored skin and diving towards the rear of the van.   Incredibly, in Andrea’s mind at least, she survived the impact and subsequent explosion.  

    Ripping her way free from the debris, she tried to pull the others from the flaming wreckage, but Gladiator would have none of that.  Costumed warrior trope or the like compelled him to lasso her and drag her towards him.  

     

    Thrashing and straining with newfound strength she managed to free herself without a moment to spare.   Andrea would like to say that she acquitted herself well in that first encounter.  In reality she only barely escaped with her life, and only then because of the actions of UNTIL.

    Over the next year she juggled her roles of UNTIL scientist and part-time rescue hero.  All the while trying to unlock the secrets of her scarab and do her part in the Destroyer war.

    Campaign Use:

    Speed brick/blaster

    Powers and Tactics:

    Still new to the role of hero Chimera has not picked up any serious maneuvers or battle field tactics.  (No skill levels or martial arts).  Still she moves like lightning (DEX 26 SPD6) and works very hard to make sure that the agility is put to good use.

    Despite one year of hard work and practice Andrea has yet to reliably deploy any offensive technologies from the CHIMERA BIOSUIT.  As a result she relies on one of her own inventions, a collapsible staff with a concussion field generator.

    Chimera has a set of foldout wings that she uses to fly, glide and even propel herself through the water at great speed.
