SpecialtiesAthletics (+1), Power (Sonic Control) Expert (+2) Her sound imitations and Affliction are tested as if she were level 4.
Powers
  • She has Poor (2) Sonic Control with a basic power of Images. She can also discomfit someone (an Affliction) or distract them so that she can give them suggestions, like Mind Control/Hypnosis.
  • She can emit a subsonic that messes with someone's visual center and makes them unable to see her, a kind of Average (3) Invisiblity. Machines will still see her, and it's tiring.

Precision over power



Brainpower (Paul Anoretti)
PRWCRDSTRINTAWRWILSTADet
24665711
SpecialtiesScience (+1), Technology (+1)
Powers
  • His flying jar has Average (3) Flight.
  • The jar has Great (6) Telekinesis. It manifests as a violet beam.
  • The jar can also trigger nerve centers, causing pain strong enough to immobilize someone (Extra: Great (6) Stunning vs. Will), with the green beam.
Brainpower wears robotic bodies that pass casual inspection, but which fall apart on combat. The robotic bodies tend to be slow and heavy, but they provide him with fine manipulation and other skills.
Qualities
He is an inveterate mansplainer.
He is obsessed with Kendra/Jane/Mynah and knows many details of her real life.
He is certainly an expression of white (brain) privilege.
For future game purposes, he is probably in debt to whomever put him in a jar.
