THE PROLETARIAT

The man known as the Proletariat was among many of the espionage agents who became
apart of the 1947 Soviet spy plan known called “Project Chameleon”. These individuals were
apart of the first successful and repeatable experiments that created super beings all who
always possessed the same super abilities, namely the ability to alter their alter their physical
appearance and stature, enabling them to impersonate anyone. These communist
spies/assassins (called metamorphs) could infiltrate any government and/military body, remove
the original person and have one of these agents take his or his place. So paranoid was the
United States, it lead to the creation of the federal agency known as G.I.G.M.A. Although no
one knew the identity of any of the metamorphs, one in particular stood out above the rest.
He called himself the Proletariat. He took great strides in committing murder, planting bombs,
and doing anything to undermine NATO countries. He orchestrated numerous attacks against
NATO countries, the United States and Great Britain in particular. One of his most daring
covert operations was to infiltrate MX7 and find a means to eliminate all the members of
Euroforce. He was found out by Major Godwin Babbs. Both G.I.G.M.A. and Euroforce have
vowed to find this man no matter who he maybe and bring him to justice.

Death: Proletariat escaped capture and went on to become a thorn in side of United States
and other NATO countries. However, in 1963, G.I.G.M.A. agents manage to infiltrate the very
organization responsible for the creation and managing of the metamorphs. Using propaganda
and keyed assassination attempts on prominent Communist party leaders, the operatives made
the Russian government believe the metamorphs sought to take subert control of the
government. They ordered Project Chameleon shut down and in a one mass execution,
eliminated everyone involved with the program, including all the metamorphs. No one of them
survived.

THE PARTISAN

The man called the Partisan was a Soviet Spy and Terrorist. His mission like the metamorphs
was to infiltrate NATO countries and disrupt the democratic way of life. Partisan did it by
murdering/assassinate people of prominent positions (entertainment, politics, or military) then
have the murder blamed on unsuspecting innocent people. He would also sabotage factories,
power stations, and industries to cause not only havoc, but to implant distrust in the federal
government in the minds of working class people. Great Britain and France were the prime
targets of the Partisan attacks, since its people were the most likely to rise up and protest.
However, in the United States, the Partisan found civil right crimes against African Americans
to be the most prominent means of achieving his goal. Some of his most favorite plots were to
cause the death of individuals that would cause conspiracy theorists to blame the government
for the crime (Kennedy’s Assassination is a perfect example). When the Partisan shot Britannia
in the head during a press conference, he thought for sure he’d killed her. Hours later, she
was alive and standing before news camera again. Afterward, he became obsessed with killing
her. Each and every time, Britannia survived or returned from the dead. She and other
members of Euroforce vowed to find him and put an end to his reign of terror.

Death: The Partisan managed to escape capture from Euroforce and G.I.G.M.A. In 1975, he
collapsed while in a London train station, just before he could secretly plant his bomb in an
effort to blame the IRA on it. He was taken to a hospital where he was diagnosis with liver
cancer. They gave him 3-6 months to live. Rather than die from the disease, the Partisan
carried out his original mission this time however as a suicide bomber, but not before he
brought about the end of Britannia. He contacted Euroforce in an effort to get them on the
scene. When Britannia came within range, he blew himself up, killing over 75 civilians and
injuring well over a hundred people, nonetheless Britannia survived as she done so many other
times before.

STARCHILD

Danteria Flask is an Arismal and the twin sister of the famed pirate hero Jarion Flask. Like her
brother, she didn’t care for the life of being trapped in the Arismal fleet. She wanted
adventure and the ability to explore life outside their battleships. When her powers began to
manifest in her early teens, there was no rejoicing by her parents or anyone else for that
matter. Her powers were all light based. Arismals are a twilight people. No one wanted her on-
board their ship because she inhibited the lives of others. Even thought her father, Zenys
Flask, was a captain of one of their surviving Leviathan-Class Battleships, he could do nothing
to sway the people. Danteria persuaded her family to allow her to find a place to call home
and let her find her own way. They finally agreed. The fifteen year old flew out on her own
cruising and crisscrossing the Ilta and Liloqua Quadrant of the galaxy. Over the next eleven
years, Danteria became a champion and protector of beings of all races, but she mainly
concentrated on humanoids. When members of the FAR started pressing her to help them
stand up against the Atorians, Danteria decided to find one particular planet far away from
them so didn’t have to be pressured into fighting a war that could not be won. She learned
about Earth and decided to investigate. Right away, she fell in love with the planet and its
people, especially the Americans. They were in definite need of an intergalactic champion. She
put her spaceship the Scrambler in orbit high above the city of Los Angeles and became a
Legionnaire hero. In a short time, she became not only won over the admiration of Americans
but people of other nations. One of her adventures was against the elderly super powered
Nazi War criminal Der Kommandant who decided to attack a mosque in broad daylight. The
moment he and his white supremacist associate launch their mini-missile attack, Danteria
came swooping down and destroyed the weapon. She engaged the villain and made short
work of him. Rather than be arrested and captured, the man instead choose to commit
suicide. Seeing him take his laugh haunted Danteria for the longest time. She was plagued by
nightmares for weeks.

Recently Dana starting wearing a device built by a hardware friend to allow her to appear
more like an Earth woman, when she started have encounters with Alpha Prime. She urged her
to abandon Earth and recited that she was breaking Covenant law. Danteria insisted she was
only her to help and not influence Earth society. Nonetheless, Danteria grew tired of Alpha
Prime lecturing and interference in her life. She moved her ship to a different location. Now
wearing to appear more human, Danteria is walking and living among humans instead of simply
observing them from afar. She is sharing a home with her friend Joan Star, a female attorney
for the stars living in Beverly Hills. Joan has been introducing her to the “Beverly Hills Life” and
carousing with Hollywood celebrities, all the while no suspects that she is Starchild, super-
heroine and protector of the Earth.

I hadn't taken a look at this post in ages, and I really like the additions. I just read the Euroforce write up, and I was really impressed. We have to be just about out of mentioned characters by now. PB needs to get out some new HU material with tons of references to play off of.

You would be correct. I'm working on some guys for Skraypers in HU setting. Yeah I know
some people don't like this book, but these guys still make for cool Alien NPCS. I'm going to
double check on those Mutant Animal characters mentioned earlier. The only names left in CS
and GI are those who dead. Yes I did the dead Centurions, because I feel their existence
could be important to adventure scenarios involving the Centurions. But I'm not doing any else
who is deceased. Of course anyone else is welcomed to take a shot at them.

Okay here at the names of the super powered hench men of Dark Quorn found in Skraypers
on page 94.

QUIZZLER

Xor was given over to the Bureau of Control and Registration (BCR) when he began to display
his psionics abilities at the age of 13. He was taught to detect and track down all diseased
(superbeing) Seerons and get them to register or to eliminate them. He was also taught to
eliminate rogue Skyrapers and freedom fighters. At the age of 18, he was given his first
assignment, to locate and kill Dark Quorn and his small band of terrorists. He successfully led
a group of Control Agents to Dark Quorn hideout. However, he used his powers of hypnotic
suggestion to disorient the agents then gave away their position. This allowed Dark Quorn and
his associates to wipe out the agents. Xor surrendered and asked if he could be allowed to
join the group. Quorn was more than eager to let him in the group. Xor has been with them
ever since. However, his concern over Dark Quorn mental state is ever growing. He is loyal to
Quorn but he feels if he should ever become unstable he will have no choice but to put him
down and assume the mantle of leadership.

KILLER KLAV

Ever since he was abandoned by his family, Klav had held a grudge against pretty much
everyone. He likes bullying and putting down others before they get a chance to do the same
to him. There isn’t a descent bone in his body. Whenever he gets the chance, he will take on
a Tarbull in armed combat. He collects their King Fingers as trophies. He owns a number of
their weapons as well. Quizzler doesn’t like him going of on his own to engage in these
personal fights, especially when it effects the planning of one of their missions, but Dark
Quorn doesn’t seem to mind. If it should ever become necessary for Quizzler to assume the
leadership role, his first act is to get rid of this liability. He also doesn’t like Klav picking on Red
Mad, although there isn’t anything Klav could do to hurt the invulnerable Bio-Freak. Klav
knows this as well, but Red Mad is so weak willed its just so much fun to stop. Klav is growing
agitated whenever Quorn starts being nice to the sheep (those who don’t fight the Tarlock).
But just like Red Mad there isn’t a thing he could do to hurt Quorn, but that doesn’t mean he
couldn’t set him up to get captured by Control or the Tarlock.

escaped capture or elimination. Taking to a hidden freedom fighter camp in Rylor, he lived
among the rebels learning how to use his abilities as well as the skills to be a Skrayper. At the

MAD MELBONE

Cabei never realized he was among the super powered until he noticed he could get anyone in
his family to do whatever he wanted just by commanding them too. When it dawn to him, he
decided to get away from them before he was discovered. He went into a life of hiding, using
his powers to keep Control Agents and Tarlock away from him. Eventually he was discovered
by a Nazeer whose mind he could not affect. Yet to his amazement, he gained all the
creature’s psychic abilities. Using Super Telekinesis on the creature, he tossed him away and
managed to escape. He was found by a Skrayper and taken to a hidden sanctuary. There he
was trained to be a rebel and Skrayper himself. Nonetheless, Cabei at times would rather be
looking after himself rather then sticking his neck on the line all the time, without a benefit for
himself. Despite this behavior, he became a welcomed addition to Truk’s group. He loves a
good fight and has no problem challenging someone strong and more powerful then him,

TRASHMASTER

Eleni was among the slaves sold to Rithe Alliance that was freed by Victor. At the time she
didn’t know Truk. Afterward, she joined a band of Skraypers who acted more like criminals
then freedom fighters. In the end, this group was found out by control and eradicated. Eleni
managed to escape. She met up with Truk and because of their common situation, he asked
her to join his group. Deciding it better to be with a group then out on her own, Eleni agreed.
She rather steal what she needs and do what will keep her alive then go out and help others
(unless she benefits from it). For now, she is willing to be a member of Truk group, but the
moment he get a few more “do gooders” or if she thinks they’re going to be captured, she is
going to make a break for it and find someone less involved in the heroics and more involved

Okay did some research and listened to the podcast. I can confirm that the Sparrows
were originally play tester characters for the book. Fred Hamster as well. So I'll go to work.
However, I'm trying to figure out if they're mutant eagles or mutant sparrows? Anyone know
:-?

They're Sparrows. Also, there's a (probably fictionalized) transcript of the character creation process in the book. All the players are stoked to be team characters to get the extra bonuses, and crushed to discover that they now all have to play sparrows due to one terrible dice roll. They decide to call them selves Sparrow-Eagles because "these guys are tough!" :crane:

:D :D Could it be that he's back...

Yes and no. Been running the adventure from the GMs Guide "Trouble Down the Line" (page
84-92) and it occured to me we now have Lesser Demons as NPCs thanks to PU 2 so its
possible to expand upon the quicks stats they gave for the Demoness Trio. Now I know
with Armageddon Unlimited (which I can't wait to see) and the Hades Dimensional Book we
have updated stats for succubi in an SDC games setting like Heroes. However, I couldn't
help myself when I realized the possibilities so I'm going to flush these guys out to make
them a bit more villianous and usable as NPCs. Besides I'm having so much fun tormenting
my players with them, I got to give another GM a chance to have some fun :twisted:.

THE DEMONESS TRIO

Three female demons have come to Earth to use their powers and seductive nature to take
control over the city. They use their looks to distract, confuse, lure, and seduce
unsuspecting men. These use this ploy to learn secrets, manipulate a lust-struck fool, plant
incriminating evidence to frame him (or steal it to blackmail him), or to lure him to his doom.
They are harbingers of death who tantalize, charm, and then kill without mercy. Many
people (especially women) are so bedazzled by the charms, promises, and favors that they
become willing pawns and servants manipulated to provide aid, protection, information or
services for them, even willingly hurting, using, and destroying friends and family. Most of
these willing pawns are people of wealth and prominence, thus allowing the demons to
manipulate the political climate of the city to build themselves a regime behind the façade
of the women’s right movements.

The Wish Contract. These three demons have a special wish contract similar to that of the
Jinn (see Palladium Fantasy or Hades), but in their case it’s more of a powerful ritual magic
they use against a particular individual. The subject is granted three wishes, which the
Demoness Trio twist and pervert in any manner of their choosing. Unlike the Wish Curse of
the Jinn, the Demoness chose the person they want to perform this contract upon, nor are
they bound to the individual in any way. Each Demoness is required to fulfill the wish in
order for the magic to work properly and each wish must be granted within 24 hours or the
ritual will fail. All three must be present during the wish making. After successful completing
the three wishes, the truth to the contract comes into play. The person becomes
extremely vulnerable to their magic and super abilities, -4 to save vs. magic (super abilities)
and not other bonuses, even attribute bonuses apply; only the natural, unmodified roll of
the dice. Magic spells/super abilities inflict double damage as are the effects/penalties and
duration. All physical attacks inflicted by the Demoness Trio cause TRIPLE damage while
critical strikes inflict double damage directly against the targets hit points!!! There is no
save against this magic, only by not completing the ritual will the subject break free of the
magic. If any of the Demoness fails to comply with any of the 3 wishes, the magic is also
broken, so depending on how badly the Demoness wants the contract to go through, they
will comply with the desires of the subject. However because they are not bound to the
person and the wishes are an attempt to bind him or her to them, the wishes cannot be
used to kill/inflict harm on themselves or one another. Nor can they be used to grant an
absurd or uncalled-for wish (“swim down to the bottom of the ocean and stay there”
or “make me the ruler of the universe”). All 3 wishes must be reasonable and do able within
the limits of their abilities.

The ultimate goal for the Demoness Trio is build a strong enough power base of mortal
pawns then find a way to call forth more of their sisters to Heroes Unlimited Earth and
enslave the entire human population. They continually seek out new people of great
prominence (like the President of the United States) to subject him or her to their wish
contract. Surprisingly they’re very active in the women’s right movement (even though it’s
only a ploy) and many of their targets are its critics and offenders. Note: For fans of P.P.E.
Channeling, these creatures can spend 35 P.P.E. per action/attack.

I'm preparing to do an adventure with Voltaic from Fabricators Inc so I've turned to this
post to get Cardiac's 2nd edition conversion of the guy. He made him a mega villain, and
while I think he's cool as one, I feel with PU 2 and its saying in VU that Fabricators made
him a specially costume to help him channel his powers, that its unneccesary for him to be
a mega. So here is my version of Voltaic 2.5. This also goes with my argument that
magnetism in HU 2 needs to be reworded.

VOLTAIC

Real Name: Clint Heuser
Occupation: The Fabricator's chief enforcer and bodyguard. Head of Fabricators
Elimination Teams operations.
Alignment: Aberrant
Power Category: Mutant (with Super Invention)
Experience Level: 12th

Age: 31, Sex: Male, Height: 6 foot and 6 inches (1.98 m), Weight: 295 lbs 9133 kg).
Unusual Physical Characteristic: Stocky. Note: He can only carry and lift the
equivalent to Superhuman P.S., otherwise its normal P.S.
Major Super Abilities: Magnetism
Minor Super Abilities: Energy Expulsion: Electricity, Conduct Electricity, and
Impervious to Energy and Electricity.
Super Invention: Costume: A.R. 7 and 200 S.D.C.
Special Powers: Doubles the range, duration, effect, damage, bonuses, and
strength of his Magnetism (see below). The duration, range, damage, penalties, bonuses,
and effects of all his minor powers are increased by 30% (see below).
Combat Training: Hand to Hand: Assassin
Attacks per Melee: 8
Combat Bonuses: +5 to initiative, +7 to strike, +9 parry, +9 dodge, +23 to damage,
+6 roll with punch/fall, +5 pull punch, and +4 disarm.
Saving Throws: +24% to save vs. coma/death, +3 to save vs. magic and poison.
Combat Skills: Punch 1D4, Power Punch 2D4, Forearm/Elbow 1D6, Knee 1D6, Karate
Kick 2D4, Wheel Kick 2D6, Tripping/Leghook (cannot be paired, must dodge or knockdown),
Body Flip/Throw 1D6 plus P.S. damage bonus (lose initiative and 1 attack/action), Body
Block/Tackle 1D4 (parry or dodge to avoid knockdown), Pin 18-20, Crush 1D4, All Holds,
Deathblow (double damage to hit points/2), Knockout/Stun on an unmodified roll of 17-20,
and Critical strike on an unmodified roll of 18-20.

and Hydrofoil 98%, Mathematics: Advance 84%, First Aid 95%, Radio: Basic, 85%,
Streetwise 48%, Recognize Weapon Quality 40%, Business & Finance 50%, and Law
(general) 40%, and Computer Programming 53%.
Money: Voltaic has amassed a personal fortune of 7 million in bank accounts, 10
million in stocks and bonds in various companies worldwide, and has 2D6 x $10,000 in cash
on hand at all times. His annual salary is five million dollars, plus bonuses and perks. He also
has access to the resources of Fabricators Inc., which is nearly beyond measure.
Weapons: He has access to all the weapons made by Fabricators Inc, as well any
modern or ancient weapon in the world. However, he prefers to use his super powers and
fight abilities. The following are his powers augmented by his suit.
Magnetism: Attract Metal, 12,960 lbs/5832 kg to carry and 18,960
lbs/8,532 kg to carry (Equal to a Superhuman P.S. of 65), Range: 440 feet (134 m),

distance is 640 feet (195 m). Damage: Double normal damage (see page 280-281),
Bonuses: +4 to strike with 1-4 items.
Magnetic Field, Besides its normal capabilities (Speeding metal objects
reduce their speed by 100% the moment they enter the field, giving him a +7 to auto
dodge), the field is also powerful enough to provide him 200 S.D.C. of protection against all
non-metal kinetic and energy attacks. It can regenerate 3 S.D.C. per melee round. Instead
of relying iron objects to repel or propel him from/toward, he can use Earth’s natural
magnetic field to achieve flight. Max Speed: 40 mph (64.4 km), Altitude: 640 feet (195 m).
The field has a range of being self (tight field) or up to a 60 foot (18.2 m) circle with him at
the center. It cost only one action to create the field and it can be maintained infinitely at
the cost of one action per melee round.
Magnetize Objects, The required to magnetize an object is 2 minutes per
every 2 lbs of weight. The duration is 4D4 days.
Sense Iron: Sense iron, steel, and ferrous materials (iron-bearing clays and
plastic, and ferrous ores) in a 60 foot (18 .2 m) radius and 24 feet (7.3 m) underground.
Energy Expulsion–Electricity, Range: 520 feet (158 m), Damage: 2D6x10,
Bonuses: +7 to aim/+4 for a wild shot.
Conduct Electricity, Range: 364 feet (110.9 m), Duration: 16 minutes.
Electric Bolts or Electric Attacks by holding onto a electric power source:
Range: Touch or 520 feet (158 m), Damage: +4D6 to punches or kicks or +4D6 to his
Energy Expulsion-Electricity, Bonuses: +3 to his energy expulsion.
+7 to parry all electric attacks (he takes no damage from a failed role) or a
dampening field 13 feet (3.9 m) that be cast around himself or up to 130 feet (39.6 m)
away.
Lightning Rod: He can redirect any electric attack back toward its source
(+7 to parry) then can be directed back at the source or he can channel extra electrical
energy using his own energy expulsion: electricity (can apply his bonus to aim/wild shot). If
he draws lightning down from the sky and directed at opponents it can do 4D4x10 points of
damage or he can also add his own energy expulsion-electricity, causing 5D6x10 points of
damage. Range: 1456 feet (443 m), Bonuses: He can apply his energy expulsion: electricity
bonuses to strike. Three bolts of lightning can be summoned and redirected per melee
round, and it only uses up one attack per melee.
Equipment and Vehicles: He has all the resources of Fabricator's Inc at his fingertips,
including electronics, computers, surveillance, special fleet vehicles, and teleporters. The
Fabricator personally designed his special costume. Besides the augmentation of his
powers, the suit has a micro-video communicator built into his suit - looks and talks into a
small screen on the top of his left hand and listens to the microphone in his headgear. Also
contains a micronized PDA. Both systems are shielded from his powers to avoid damage.

If the field is already up then he doesn't have to worry about dodging. Objects will be
stopped. But if someone throws a car at him, and he doesn't have the field up, then the
dodge roll would be needed to determine whether or not he gets the field up before he gets
hit by the hurled/thrown metal object. I'd say its a parry, but the books says its a dodge.
Told yeah magnetism needs to be edited :) .

I guess you mean the Castaway Aliens, because everyone else is pretty fleshed out and
I don't see a reason to upgrade anyone else. I never used those aliens before , but I suppose I
could put some more meat and bones on them. It will be a while summer job is here so my timit
to do any work is limited.

and Justice, it makes sense that Canada would have a patriotic government sponsored
super hero group as well. After all they have a SCRET nearly equal to the USA (as we all
know). Just make sure they aren't tainted like a particular Canadian super hero group from
a certain comic book company.

Magic strength requires a magic saving throw of 12 or better. P.P.E. is P.E. attribute x3 plus
1D6 per level of experience. Faughns who do not pursue the Mystic arts can selected any
educational background or power category, but never partial or full bionic conversion which
would destroy their innate magics. They do not develop or receive additional super abilities or
psionics (only magic). Those who do go on to study and practice magic as wizard under Mystic
study (magic), can selected two additional spells from each level 1-4 (for a total of six spells
from each level) and four additional spells from levels 5-10 (total of 12 spells from those
combined levels) as their starting spells. They also received 1D6x10+20 additional P.P.E. points
added to their base P.P.E. Note: The Castaway Aliens between the five of them know all spell
magic from levels 1-10 (which also includes all space magic from Alien Unlimited™ and Galaxy

bonuses, but do include those gained from being gifted with magical abilities. +3 on all saving
throws and +5 to save vs. magic.
Combat Skills: Punch 1D4, Power Punch 2D4 (counts as two attacks), Elbow/Forearm
1D6, Knee 1D6, and Snap Kick 1D6.
Other Bonuses: +3% to all skills
Educational Background: General Studies (Well Familiarity with Earth)

Tailsmans. One stores an additional 50 P.P.E. and the other will have one magic spell in it that

Galactic Communicator (a cellphone size communicator with satellite/low orbiting
communication capabilities). Range: 300 miles (range extends into space).
Dimensional Teleportation Device. This mechanical device is about the size of a boom
box from the 1980s and mid 90s. It has the ability to hold up to 1000 P.P.E. It can be used as
a talisman for up to 5 mages to draw P.P.E. from for any purpose. However, its primary
function is to be used for Dimensional Teleportation. This device allows up to 2000 lbs of mass
connected via cables and wristbands to travel into another dimension with it. The advantage
of using this device is it can be used to dial in specific dimensional coordinates thus providing n
additional +30% success ratio to a spell caster who knows the spell Dimensional Teleport, even
if the spell caster has never been to that dimension before. Any dimension that has been
visited to on more than one occasion, it provides near flawless teleportation; +80% success
ration to the spell caster who knows Dimensional Teleport. The device will not work unless the
spell caster has knowledge of the spell (the ritual still has to be performed). Only those linked
to the device via the cable and wristband will teleport.

Only Tentacles of Hair is from Powers Unlimited One. The others are from the Black Vault Wiki.


I believe Constrictor Arms was by Mr. Scorpio, unless it got credited to the wrong person. It is just listed as by Mr. Scorpio in the wiki. I do not have permission by znbrtn to post any of his stuff, but that may have been my error.

Thank you for utilizing The Black Vault Wiki
It lets me (and hopefully Stone Gargoyle) know that people are using it and appreciate its existence!

I know people use it, we just don't get enough people posting to it on a regular basis.
But not trying to sidetrack- Now back to your regularly scheduled character posting thread.
