I'm working on a concept for a Palladium one-shot or mini campaign where notable individuals are plucked from time and space and thrust together into a mad quest to save the Megaverse. I'm hoping for some help in the form of answers to the following question:
If you could play as an existing notable, awesome, or iconic NPC from any of the books or official Rifter material available for Heroes Unlimited, which NPC from which book/page would you choose, and why?

I'd probably go with The Usurper from Villains Unlimited page 203. He's basically Doctor Doom with super powers and a great backstory and I can imagine him being a blast to play with his ego and personality.

Fabricators Inc. from pg. 63 of Villains Unlimited is a really good choice. Super villains with high-tech henchmen, a corporate façade with its own internal politics can be a lot of fun
This is definitely one of my favorites from VU but I haven't used him that much. I always have a hard time deciding where to put him.

lol, I'd play as Kelly Sharp from Rifter 79 because I'd want to test myself and see if I could 'out-clever' someone

I'm not sure but I think this might count as shameless self-promotion.
