Species: Humanoid (Krigorian)
Origin: Mutation
Calling: Vigilante
Level: 3
Description: 6 feet tall, Age 26. A female Krigorian that is a bit more petite than what you see in the picture in the primer. Most of her body is covered in a greyish fur similar to the color you would typically think of for wolves. Especially around the arms, head, and legs. Very much buff but more of a diver buff than body builder buff if you know what I mean.

Species: Robotic (Heavy Chromid)
Origin: Mutation
Calling: Villain

Description: While it seemed that IUDEX was dead, a mutation in their Unicore occurred. Images and words flashed into their mind. Convinced that this is a message from Chromoda, she claims to have found her new purpose in life.

If they are truly heroic they will show their bravery to help others, and she will let them live.

Old Man Entropy - Created by Donnelly Homily
Character Sheet
Archetype: Guardian
Powerset: Ice Manipulation
Species: Energoid (Veliken)
Origin: Natural
Calling: Researcher
Level: 4
Description: Ageless, timeless, and deeply unnerving, Old Man Entropy is a figure of mixed hope and fear. Beneath his suit, he is a cosmic swirl, his lopsided face appears like a pair of black holes colliding. The suit he wears resembles a slimmed-down version of an Apollo-era space suit, with white and gold components, and a golden cape. His powers manifest as a dark frost, a technique learned from his observation of the Singraad. He draws on the draining, dark, despairing winter to strike his foes. Then, from that dark winter, he forges an inspiring new spring.

Overtime - Created by Mike "3"
Character Sheet
Archetype: Arbiter
Powerset: Gadgetry
Species: Alien (Emergil)
Origin: Science
Calling: Suit
Level: 5
Description: My mid-day break is starting... so I have a few minutes to talk. Middle managers. Only second in the galaxy to Vogon Bureaucrats for unpleasantness and potential evil. The bane of all. Countless lemmings push papers and rearrange deck chairs as the Earth vessel Titanic sinks. I was one. But not anymore. I am excited to share that my recent move to GLU Applied Science Logistics has opened up new opportunities for me. You see, in logistics, an adventuresome Emergil can easily review inventory shipped to and from all GLU/Vandalay import/export consortiums. This information can be input into any number of GLU/IDC compu-terminals, but I prefer my ally CCC-913 the GLU forensic unit to decipher use cases, potential "hot-zones", reduction areas and other contentious manifestations. Evil is out there... However, it's growth is curiously curtailed with my new promotion. Knowledge alone will not squash the bug of badness. I was recently accepted into the GLU Applied Science Logistics Quality Control Assessment cadre. A mouthful for certain. Let's say I am now responsible for field testing. These field tests can take me to difficult areas of the galaxy on a moments notice. I don't even mind filling out the trip/after action reports. My past and present allies appear to enjoy the assistance. Unfortunately, many of my QC field tests are destructive to the inventory, but it's all annotated in my trip reports. I apologize, but Supervisor O'Boyle is a real stickler about promptly ending mid-day breaks. "Heck", I keep telling him, "don't worry, I'll happily pay for extended breaks by working Overtime."

The Bystander - Created by Sasha Ninni
Character Sheet
Archetype: Hunter
Powerset: Psionics
Species: Humanoid (Earthling)
Origin: Natural
Calling: Vigilante
Level: 5
Description: One would not think an unassuming lawyer would be one to take up superheroics, even in a law firm known for defending vigilantes. But such is the case for Joshua Briggs, a man who, like many others, was raised to do the right thing wherever he was able. Among many other things, his study of law taught him also that, sometimes, the law needed assistance. While the use of the mind tends to come naturally to one who passes the Bar Exam, Briggs was one of those who could extend his mind outside of his body. And with help from the man he tailed when he joined the firm, he took up vigilantism himself. However, unlike so many others, he didn't jump into the line of fire. Instead, while he still wore a mask of a sort, he tended to assist from the sideline, preferring to cloud minds rather than directly enter them. The pursuit did not go unnoticed, as news sites and shows picked up stories of a man who seemed to never leave whenever pandemonium broke out. Undeterred, Briggs continues his work, though it gets more difficult to operate discretely as heroes, villains, and news folk are now trying to catch sight of the "assisting hero" known only as... The Bystander.

The Eye of Mammon aka Bruno Bannon - Created by Scott
Character Sheet
Archetype: Blaster
Powerset: Light Energy
Species: Humanoid (Earthling)
Origin: Magic
Calling: Contractor
Level: 1
Description: The Eye of Mammon wears a sleek, black trench coat over a simple, black leather costume with a white insignia subtly reminiscent of the white space around a tie in a tuxedo. His most distinguishing characteristic is, of course, the visor. A cracked, obsidian frame holds the blood-red eye and its reptilian slit pupil at the center. The arrangement of the eye should blind Bruno. But he sees more clearly than ever.

Backstory
Archetype: Guardian
Powerset: Weapon Mastery
Species: Humanoid (Earthling)
Origin: Natural
Calling: Drifter
Level: 1
Description: For as long as he could remember, Vincent Leroy always wanted to be a hero. But not for the reasons most wanted to. He wanted to be a hero for fame, fortune and glory. He just needed powers to do so. Luckily for him, on his 18th birthday, he got such powers. These powers gave him flying, super strength, and many more. Now he was a manager. He went to Apex, a company that specializes in superhero management and PR. Happy to just be able to start saving people earning money and reputation, Vince signed on the line and became known as the hero Viceroy! However, after a few years, he got tired of saving cats from trees and stopping a few petty muggings. He wanted more! So he approached the executives at Apex and told them he wanted to fight some bad guys. They said that his numbers in the polls needed to be higher for him to be a solo hero. So he could either join a brand new team they were going to have or quit. Naturally, Vince joined the Sentinels of Protection.
