Medusa Brainstorming #1

Gorgons and how to build them came up in the Discord the other day, and it got me thinking.

First up, the big thing, the petrification.

You need to choose whether this is something she consciously does, or something that just happens when someone looks at her face.

If she does it consciously, then she has to take an action to do it, but she doesn't always have to do it, it's cheaper, and you can fold it into an array.

If it just happens, then it's an expensive stand-alone power, and you probably won't have room on your sheet for any other powers.

Then you need to choose effects and descriptors.

Do you use Transform, or Paralyze?

Is it actually petrification, or just, say, a paralytic effect that makes the victim look super-pale?

The cost is about the same either way.

You also need to decide if it's going to be a Fortitude effect or a Will effect. That depends on your descriptors, your vision. Is it something you fight off with your body/health, or your mind/willpower?

I would include the Subtle power feat, because while it's obvious to the person who looked at her and got petrified what happened, other observers may not know why the person suddenly turned to stone.

Here's a few different ways to build it:

Note: You can bring the cost down on the active versions by applying the Distracting flaw, and/or by flawing the action down to Full.

Paralyze 10 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Area [Visual Perception]; Flaws: Uncontrolled; Feats: Subtle) [51PP]

Paralyze 10 (Extras: Range 2 [Perception]; Flaws: Sense-Dependent [Visual]; Feats: Subtle) [31PP]

Either one of those will wear off in a few rounds, a couple minutes at the most, unless you increase the duration.

Transform 10 (Flesh To Stone; Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Area [Visual Perception], Duration [Continuous, Lasting]; Flaws: Range [Touch], Uncontrolled; Feats: Subtle) [61PP]

Transform 10 (Flesh To Stone; Extras: Duration [Continuous, Lasting], Range [Perception]; Flaws: Sense-Dependent [Visual]; Feats: Subtle) [41PP]

Because they're Continuous (Lasting) duration effects, neither of these will wear off until you choose to turn them off. And since the Reaction Area ones are Uncontrolled, you can't choose to turn them off. They'll turn off only if the GM decides they do, for whatever reason, or if someone counters/Nullifies them.

You could also split the difference, by having a very low-rank always-on effect that happens whenever someone looks at her, and then a more powerful conscious "focusing" of it that she can do as an attack.

Have one of these as a stand-alone, which even low-PL minions will usually save against, and is more of a flavor thing than anything else:

Paralyze 1 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Area [Visual Perception]; Flaws: Uncontrolled; Feats: Subtle) [6PP]

Transform 1 (Flesh To Stone; Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Area [Visual Perception], Duration [Continuous, Lasting]; Flaws: Range [Touch], Uncontrolled; Feats: Subtle) [7PP]

And then this as an AP in an attack array:

Paralyze 10 (Extras: Range 2 [Perception]; Flaws: Sense-Dependent [Visual]; Feats: Subtle) [31PP]

Transform 10 (Flesh To Stone; Extras: Duration [Continuous, Lasting], Range [Perception]; Flaws: Sense-Dependent [Visual]; Feats: Subtle) [41PP]

Medusa Brainstorming #2

Once you settle on the petrification effect, then you have to decide what else she can do, which myths and games you want to pull from.

The snakes growing out of her head are often depicted as venomous. That's simple enough. Most exotic attack effects will work for venom.

Damage (Extras: Alternate Save [Fortitude]) [2PP/rank]

Drain (Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution) [1PP/rank]

Drain (All Abilities At Once; Flaws: Limited [Physical Abilities: Str, Dex, Con]) [2PP/rank]

Nauseate [2PP/rank]

Paralyze [2PP/rank]

Stun [2PP/rank]

Since the victim is probably getting bitten many times in rapid succession, the Autofire extra would fit.

Secondary Effect is always a good extra for poison powers.

If she grapples people (see below), and you can afford to buy her Enhanced Strength and Super-Strength separately from her attack array, then you could add the Requires Grapple flaw to the venom effect.

If you use Drain, keep in mind that people will recover one point every round. The Slow Fade feat and/or the Total Fade extra can slow that down.

Sometimes she has corrosive acid for blood. You could do this as a rank 1 flavor thing, like the split-the-difference petrification build in Part 1, or you could spend a ton of points to make it something that could really hurt someone.

Note: Even the rank 1 version has utility. Inanimate objects don't recover from Drained Toughness or Damage until they're repaired, so you could eventually bleed on even a steel (Toughness 10) object enough to break it.

Note: This is the "Corrosion" power from the books, but broken down by individual effect so you can see how it's constructed.

Acid Blood [7PP]

Drain Toughness 1 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Affects Objects, Linked [Damage]; Flaws: Uncontrolled) [4PP]

Damage 1 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Linked [Drain]; Flaws: Uncontrolled) [3PP]

Acid Blood [70PP]

Drain Toughness 10 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Affects Objects, Linked [Damage]; Flaws: Uncontrolled) [40PP]

Damage 10 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction], Linked [Drain]; Flaws: Uncontrolled) [30PP]

The assumption here is that you have to suffer a Bruised or Injured condition to trigger the Reaction. It's Uncontrolled and Reaction because it just happens when you get hurt. You don't do anything to directly activate the effect.

Technically you could use the Aura extra for the same price, but I hate UP's version of Aura. I think Reaction works better (and so did the 3E devs!).

Objects won't recover until they're repaired. People will recover one point of Toughness every round. The Slow Fade feat and/or the Total Fade extra can slow that down.

Acid effects often have the Incurable power feat, since regenerators in most games can't heal fast from acid damage.

Add the 1PP "Lethal" drawback to the Damage effect for something truly nasty.

Sometimes her blood is poisonous instead of acidic. In that case, take whatever attack effect you chose for the snake venom, and build it the same way as the Acid Blood:

Nauseate 1/10 (Extras: Action 3 [Reaction]; Flaws: Uncontrolled) [4/40PP]

You need to decide how much of a snake-person she is.

Does she have tough scales? Good descriptor for Protection.

Is she also resistant to poison: Good descriptors for Enhanced Constitution.

She might have Immunity (Poison) as well.

Is she a snake-centaur, with a big tail instead of legs?

Or does she have humanoid legs that can "fuse" into a snake tail? (Maybe this involves "shedding".)

Either way, good descriptor for a rank or two of Speed, Super-Movement (Slithering), Swimming with Enhanced Skills (Swim), either Super-Movement (Wall-Crawling) or Enhanced Skills (Climb), and a Snare effect in her attack array.

Snare 10 (Extras: Engulf; Feats: Chokehold) [21PP]

If you can crush your victim like a boa constrictor, then consider adding the Constricting extra.

Since, by default, Constricting only inflicts Damage equal to half your power rank, I would buy 2 ranks of it, which I assume would upgrade that to your full power rank.

Note, however, that extras are not optional, so if you give the Snare effect +Constricting, then the damage always happens to anyone you Snare, and you have to let them go to stop inflicting the damage.

Alternately, you could just take Enhanced Strength, Super-Strength, and Improved Grapple or Additional Limbs, and grapple people.

One rank of Super-Senses can give you the Radius extra on your default Normal Vision, if she can see through the snake eyes.

A lot of reptiles can sense heat, so Super-Senses 1 (Infra-Vision) is a good pick. Increase the utility by adding the Radius and/or Tracking extras.

They also tend to have really good sense of smell, so the Acute, Extended, and Tracking Super-Senses extras on the default Normal Olfactory Sense work, as well as Olfactory-type Danger Sense and/or Uncanny Dodge.

Some depictions give them wings, so Flight 3 (50MPH, 500ft per Move Action; Drawbacks: Power Loss [Wings]) [5PP] could apply.

Some depictions give her claws, which is just Damage (Feats: Mighty), maybe with the Improved Critical feat and/or the Lethal drawback thrown in.

She's often depicted using a bow and arrows. Personally, I wouldn't recommend this, because you'd have to put that in a Device, so you'd have to pay for those effects separately from her other attack effects. I'm a big fan of arraying all the attacks together. However, you could forgo the Device discount entirely, fold the bow-and-arrow effects into her attack array, and then have the ability to disarm her (and deprive her of those Alternate Powers) be a Complication instead.

If you do use a bow, consider arrows that have been previously poisoned with her blood.

Most reptilian characters have some Regeneration ranks, so that's a natural fit.

If you're making an actual mythological figure, then Immunity (Aging; Starvation/Thirst) could apply. The gorgons, like many supernatural creatures, are immortal in some source material.

You could also make her a full-fledged mystic with an array of magic spells she can cast in addition to her "natural" abilities.

If she's truly reptilian, than a Vulnerability to Cold effects and/or a Weakness to cold environments would work, as Drawbacks or as Complications.

Daredevil's Super-Senses

Here's how I'd build a character with Matt Murdock style powers.

Quote

POWERS 32+XPP

Enhanced Feats 1 (Skill Mastery [Acrobatics, Notice, Search, Sense Motive]) [1PP]

Enhanced Skills X (Acrobatics X, Notice X, Search X, Sense Motive X) [XPP]

Features 1 (Internal Laboratory) [1PP]

Immunity 10 (Interaction Skills; Mind Reading effects; Flaws: Limited [1/2 Effect]) [5PP]

Super-Senses 6 (Danger Sense 3 [Sense Types: Auditory, Olfactory, Tactile], Uncanny Dodge 3 [Sense Types: Auditory, Olfactory, Tactile]) [6PP]

Super-Senses 4 (All Auditory-type senses; Extras: Accurate) [4PP]

Super-Senses 2 (Normal Hearing; Sense Type: Auditory, Default: Acute, Radius, Ranged; Extras: Extended 2 [1,000ft Notice Increments]) [2PP]

Super-Senses 2 (Ultra-Hearing; Sense Type: Auditory, Default: Acute, Radius, Ranged; Extras: Extended [100ft Notice Increments]) [2PP]

Super-Senses 3 (Sonar; Sense Type: Auditory, Default: Acute, Radius, Ranged; Extras: Counters Concealment; Drawbacks: Counters Concealment only applies to Sonar, not to all Auditory-type senses) [2PP]

Super-Senses 6 (Normal Smell/Taste; Sense Type: Olfactory, Default: Radius, Ranged; Extras: Acute, Analytical, Extended [100ft Notice Increments], Tracking 3 [Moving All-Out]) [6PP]

Super-Senses 2 (Normal Touch; Sense Type: Tactile, Default: Accurate, Acute, Radius; Extras: Analytical, Ranged; Drawbacks: Not Accurate or Analytical at Range) [1PP]

Super-Senses 2 (Tremor-Sense; Sense Type: Tactile, Default: Accurate, Acute, Radius; Extras: Ranged) [2PP]

Notes:

I consider this a high-difficulty, high-complexity character, both to play and to GM for, because of all the extra things you need to think about when running them. Aside from that, it's probably just a basic Martial Artist or Weapon Master build.
An easy variant is to make them deaf, anosmiac, or numb instead of blind, and to then buy a bunch of Visual-type Super-Senses (Analytical and Extended on everything, Infra-Vision with Tracking, Ultra-Vision, X-Ray Vision, etc.). Adjust the Danger Sense and Uncanny Dodge accordingly.
High scores in Notice, Search, and Sense Motive do a better job of modeling "super-senses" in this system than any of the actual Super-Senses powers, so pump those up as high as you can. Most of the things that interfere with sensory input, like physical barriers between you and the source of the input, are represented with penalties to the DC of the Notice check. And to "see" through someone's lies, you have to beat their Bluff check. "How" you do that is just a matter of Descriptors.
The "Internal Laboratory" feature refers to the "Laboratory" feature for a Headquarters. This character's senses allow them to use the Investigation skill to analyze a clue without lab equipment. They can just do it on the spot.
The character doesn't have to have a high Acrobatics score, but their enhanced hearing (balance) and touch easily explain one.
If you're short on points, there are several areas where you can trim fat.
- Hardly anyone here uses the rules for Notice increment penalties, so Extended is probably a waste of points.
- I've never seen anyone enforce the rules about moving at slower speeds while Tracking, so the extra ranks there are also a luxury rather than a necessity.
- The three ranks each of both Danger Sense and Uncanny Dodge are probably overkill.
- This character should be taking all the Dodge Focus they can get away with. There's basically no reason for them to take more Base Defense bonus than they absolutely have to.
Blindness should be a Complication.
The character should have a Vulnerability to non-Visual sensory effects, but unless you're really short on points, that should also be a Complication.
A GM should feel free to give this character a Hero Point any time they want another character to sneak up on this one. The GM can just say that this character was distracted. Maybe they were lost in thought, or maybe they were focused on other sensory input; they're taking in a lot of it at any given point in time.
The half-Immunity to Mind Reading effects represents how it's difficult for others to process this character's unique blend of sensory input. The character had time to get used to it. A mind-reader did not.
I built the Sonar separate from the Ultra-Hearing, because they do different things. The Ultra-Hearing picks up high and low frequency sounds that other characters make. The Sonar represents this character painting a mental picture of their surroundings by broadcasting high-frequency sound waves and listening to them return after they bounce off of things.
The Accurate extras on the different senses do different things. Accurate on the Normal Hearing and Ultra-Hearing mean that, any time another character makes a sound, this character can target the source of that sound directly, as if they could see it. Accurate on the Sonar represents how it's effectively a substitute for vision. It can't pick up color, or images on a screen, but it can pick up size, shape, relative position, maybe even pronounced differences in texture, and create a picture in the character's mind. Similar to the hearing, Accurate on the Tremor-Sense lets the character pinpoint the exact location of the source of a vibration created from someone stepping on a surface that this character is touching.
The different Auditory-type senses have different levels of Extended. Sounds within the normal human range are the easiest to hear, so their default Normal Hearing has two ranks of Extended. The higher and lower frequency sounds are more difficult to pick up, so Ultra-Hearing has only one rank of Extended. This character can hear you heartbeat from across the room, but they can hear a conversation from a lot further away than that. And the Sonar has no Extended ranks, so the effective range is on par with normal human vision, because a lot of their brain's processing power is taken up with the act of constantly rendering a three-dimensional picture of the surrounding environment.
There are two custom power Drawbacks:
- The character's default Normal Touch sense is Ranged, but with a restriction. At range, their level of sensitivity drops from Analytical back down to the default of Acute, and at range, their touch is no longer Accurate. They have a constant awareness of their surroundings, as if they were touching everything in the room at once, but not in a way that allows them to unerringly target foes in combat. They can feel the displacement of the air around them well enough to know when someone is in the room with them. They can feel the heat coming off of light bulbs as though they were touching them, so they know when the lights are on in any given room.
- Counters Concealment is an extra which normally applies to an entire sense type. In this case, the Counters Concealment only applies to one specific Auditory-type sense, the Sonar, rather than all Auditory-type senses.So Auditory Concealment effects will make this character unable to hear any sound that their concealed foe makes, but this character will still be able to hear the sound waves their own body generates when they bounce off of their surroundings and return to the character's ears. If do you want Auditory Concealment effects to "eat" the Sonar waves as they touch a concealed foe, then you could drop the Counters Concealment extra and save a point. The character would still have Tremor-Sense to fall back, unless the foe is flying, Insubstantial, or Trackless.
The character's default Normal Smell/Taste isn't Accurate, so they can't use it to target foes in combat. It doesn't tell them precisely where the source of a given scent is. However, since it is Acute and Tracking, they can Search for the source of any given scent outside of combat.

HISTORY

Bedlam City had three Mafia families until 1995, when the Scarpias massacred the Igglionis and absorbed their holdings and surviving soldiers. The third family, the Gorganzuas, didn't approve of the coup, but they lacked the resources to oppose it, at least openly. These days, The Midnight Shadow pretends to be a vigilante while acting as an enforcer for the Gorgonzuas, but he makes sure never to operate in Scarpia territory. There are reasons for that, beyond the obvious.

Gia Igglioni was 15 when the purge happened. Her family was having dinner when the Scarpia soldiers showed up and riddled her Hardwick Park house with bullets. Gia took one in the head. There was a guest at dinner, a family friend and Gorganzua associate, Vic Cavalieri. Vic could handle himself in a firefight. He was that rare Mafioso with actual military experience; he'd seen combat in Kuwait and Yugoslavia. When the dust settled, the only survivors were Vic and, surprisingly, Gia. Vic spirited her away to Downtown General and bribed the right people to get them admitted and treated anonymously. Once he learned the full scope of that night's events, he formed a plan, a plan that Young Junior himself signed off on, quietly and unofficially.

All the official records showed that Gia died on the operating table. Her name was etched into the grave markers along with the rest of her family, and the body of a young woman went into the ground with them. To keep her safe, Vic got her a fake ID and put her up in Wolverton with a Black family, the last place any Scarpia soldiers would ever look for her. The family's patriarch, William "Whistler" Michaels, was a drug dealer and occasional hitman but more often broker for other hitmen, with whom Vic did regular business. It was a rough adjustment for Gia at first. The spoiled Mafia princess had never had to do laundry or dishes before. She was one of only a handful of white students at her new school, which wasn't nearly as well-funded as her old one. But she had reasons to make that adjustment beyond mere self-preservation. Vic was going to train her and help her avenge her family. They were going to put on masks and become vigilantes, just like all those heroes in Freedom City.

Vic did train her, but not very much, and not very well. He let her come up with the names and costumes; he couldn't have cared less. For him, it was just a scheme to get a little payback for his own flesh wound and injured pride, and to line his pockets at Dapper Donny's expense. For Young Junior it was a chance to undermine his rivals while maintaining plausible deniability, and to line his pockets at Dapper Donny's expense. For Gia, it was a holy crusade, and also a lot of fun, especially after she and Vic "fell in love". She had no idea that Vic was just using her, on all fronts. For a couple of years, The White Spider and Arachne (Vic didn't get the reference, something Gia read about in school, he could barely pretend to care) were a thorn in the side of the Scarpias. A simple silhouette line-drawing of a spider was their calling card, left painted on walls and occasionally even carved into the skin of multiple Mafiosos.

But the fun ended in 1999. Valentin Romita, a Scarpia soldier, was horribly disfigured during a confrontation with The White Spider and Arachne. He was already a sadistic psychopath, and his ordeal left him with a distorted view of reality but a newfound flair for the dramatic. He was already a made man, but as he grew more unhinged, Dapper Donny, always loathe to attract attention, shoved him further to the margins of family business. Romita started calling himself "Valentine" and leaving calling cards of his own, literal Valentine's Day cards. He also developed a taste for cutting out people's hearts. On nights when Vic was "unavailable", Gia had started going out alone as Arachne, trying to prove both to him and to herself that she was a more capable vigilante than she actually was. On one of those nights, what she thought was a crime in progress turned out to be a trap set by Valentine. Without her "mentor", he and his henchmen easily captured her. They used her to bait another trap for The White Spider. Valentine used a pirated signal to broadcast a twisted parody of a telethon where he tortured Arachne on live television and invited viewers to call a special phone number and vote on whether she should live or die. Bedlam being Bedlam, she lost by 72 votes. Gia remained defiant to the end; Valentine hurt her, but he didn't break her. Vic never showed up. Gia died cursing his name alongside those of Valentine and the Scarpias.

When the police finally arrived, Valentine made no effort to avoid capture. He was deemed unfit to stand trial and confined indefinitely to the Crawley Asylum. Vic, Young Junior, and Dapper Donny all saw the broadcast, and it scared the Hell out of them. All of them had the same thought: "This has gone too far." The Scarpias did everything they could to distance themselves from Valentine. They considered killing him but ultimately they decided to just let him rot. By the time Young Junior could get word to Vic that his time as a vigilante was over, Vic had already tied up all his loose ends. He murdered Whistler Michaels and Whistler's entire family in their home, and he planted his White Spider gear among their effects, where it was easily found by the police. Vic breathed a sigh of relief when his ruse worked and everyone assumed that Whistler was the White Spider. Vic went on to become a made man in the Gorganzua family, and eventually capo of his own crew.

Gia wasn't carrying any identification when she was captured. She was filed away as a Jane Doe, and her unclaimed, unidentified corpse was buried in the local potter's field. When the family that "Chiara Nocenti" had been staying with were all murdered, nobody questioned why she stopped showing up to school; it was barely noticed. She'd been a good enough Catholic in life that when she died, one of her god's messengers came to retrieve her soul and guide it to the afterlife. Overwhelmed with rage, she told the angel to go to Hell. She spent the next two decades in what she could only assume was some form of Purgatory. Multiple times, her god's messengers returned to offer her their god's forgiveness and redemption, and she every time she spit in their faces. When the walls between the material world and the spirit worlds were finally thin enough, she broke through, waking up in what was left of her old withered body. Transformed into an undead abomination, cursed by the god she used to worship, she dug herself out of her grave, consumed with a lust for vengeance and an even greater lust for the blood of the living.

Apparent Age: 22

Gender: Female

Ethnicity: White Scandinavian

Height: 6'

Weight: 185 lbs.

Hair: Gold

Eyes: Blue

A deity in the image of her followers, Thrude has eyes like lightning, set into flesh as pale as fresh snow. She lost her left eye in battle with The Fenris Wulf, wearing a leather patch over the scarred remains. The long, flowing golden locks she inherited from her mother shine like honey in the light of the Sun. She usually wears them in long braids, to keep them out of the way during combat. During battle, she wears furs, leathers, and linens, dyed in bright azure and amber hues, similar to the brightly-colored jumpsuits worn by modern superheroes. Magical runes have been sewn into these clothes, allowing them to change shape into a simple dress when she is not in battle. She stands tall with the regal, almost haughty bearing one would expect of a princess, and she moves with the sure, practiced gait of a trained warrior in peak condition. Her words are always clear and crisp, from a combination of perfect enunciation and sheer window-rattling volume.

HISTORY

Odin All-Father was king of the gods of the North, the Aesir, they who had eaten of the golden apples from the Tree of Idunn and gained eternal youth and vitality beyond the reach of mortal men. Odin One-Eye, who had helped to make the world from the fallen giant Ymir, gave gifts of knowledge to the northern tribes of Midgard: hunting, swordplay, literacy, even brewing, all of it knowledge he gained with great personal sacrifice. With Jord, the giantess whose body was the very Earth itself, he begat Thor. Thor, lord of the storm, married Sif, she of the golden hair in whose fertile womb the fields bore fruit. Together, they in turn begat Thrude, Daughter of Storms, Princess of Asgard. Her name means "Power", "Strength", in one of the oldest tongues ever spoken upon Europa.

The Aesir sought to form a lasting alliance with the Dvergar. The dwarves were unparalleled smiths and masons, masters of rune magic and creators of wondrous devices. To that end, Thrude was promised to wed Alviss the All-Wise, master of the forge. He was small of stature and humble in bearing, but well learned, of great skill and kind heart, which endeared him to the young goddess. Alviss rivaled even Odin in his understanding of runic lore, and to woo her, he forged for her Hridleif ("The Storm's Legacy"), a weapon fit for the Daughter of Storms, a weapon to rival the magnificence of her father's great warhammer Mjolnir.

But her father, Thor, did not approve of the union. His pride could not bear the insult of a troll as a son-in-law and heir. So Thor tricked Alviss, demanding from him a "test of wisdom." All night did Thor ask questions of Alviss, questions about everything under the Sun. And it was the Sun that was the dwarf's undoing, for he was so distracted by Thor's tests that he did not notice its morning arrival until its rays turned him to stone, the fate of all Dvergar touched by Sol.

Consumed with rage and grief, Thrude turned away from her father, joining the Valkyries. Alongside her sister shieldmaidens, she descended unto the battlefields of Midgard, choosing the bravest and the strongest of fallen mortal warriors to train and fight and revel in Valhalla, or to sate Freyja's appetites in the fields of Folkvangr. She helped build the army which would defend the realms from the ravages of the Jotnar on the day of reckoning, Ragnarok. She fought many battles in the name of the Aesir, and she slew many foes, men and monsters alike.

It was in a battle with such a beast that young Thrude's fate was (literally) sealed. Fenrir, the great winter wolf, Loki's foul get, had slipped his bonds once again, and Thrude had hunted him to the ends of the Earth. Goddess and monster were locked in ferocious battle, with no quarter being asked nor given, when Loki, the trickster and schemer without equal, trapped them both with his sorcery. None know to what end he sealed them away; he has ever kept his own counsel on the matter, and his purpose may well have slipped through the cracks of his countless machinations and been lost to time even for himself. To the outside world, their prison appeared as simple pottery, a jar or bottle like any other. But inside the pocket dimension contained within, their battle raged on throughout the centuries. There was no sense of the passage of time for them, no frame of reference, only a void, empty save for their foe.

In the year 2011 of the Common Era, a clumsy and ignorant human accidentally destroyed a simple clay jar from a collection of ancient Viking relics, and unleashed both Thrude and the Fenris Wolf upon the streets of Freedom City. Their battle continued, and despite the intervention of several of the city's superheroes, including Doktor Archeville, the wolf's iron-clad mortal namesake, and a Messenger of Yahweh, the winter wolf escaped, taking Thrude's eye in the process. The breaking of Thrude's prison by a mortal fulfilled the requirement of The Pact that a god not set foot upon Earth without a human summons. Thrude was not party to the horrors of Nazi Germany in which the Aesir were complicit, nor to the subsequent agreement they made to exile themselves from the human world. With the Messenger's blessing, Master Mage Adrian Eldritch allowed her to stay in Midgard.

She remained on Earth for a few months, protecting the innocent as best she could and briefly serving as a member of the Interceptors, before returning to Asgard, wishing to honor the spirit of The Pact. However, she still believed that it was her inherited responsibility to redeem her family's honor and to protect the people of Midgard. She did not have to wait long for an opportunity to return to the mortal realm. When a soldier named Lily Sorensen was mortally wounded, Thrude appeared to her, and offered her a choice: Thrude could guide her to the afterlife she had earned, or she could act as Thrude's host, allowing the goddess to manifest on the Earthly plane. Lily decided that she wanted to keep fighting the good fight for a while longer, so she agreed to be Thrude's vessel.

PERSONALITY & MOTIVATION

Like any young adult, mortal or divine, Thrude isn't half as worldly or sophisticated as she thinks she is. Of all her faults, it is her naivete to which she is most blind. Sometimes to her chagrin, Thrude takes after her parents, and indeed, her entire family. She is brave and confident to a fault, acts and speaks before thinking (often violently), and lets her boundless passions rule her. She is a linear thinker with a straightforward personality, who prefers any action at all to inaction, and like her father, this makes her gullible and easy to manipulate. A straight line is not only the quickest way between two points, it is the only way. If something doesn't fit, bend it, and if it doesn't bend, break it. But Thrude is also generous and self-sacrificing, seeking to alleviate the suffering of others by any means necessary, taking their burdens upon herself without hesitation. She will always be the first to charge in and the last to withdraw, seeking out the most powerful foes or the most dangerous hazards for herself, holding herself to a higher standard than anyone else. In her mind, there is nothing that can't be done, no foe who can't be overcome.

POWERS & TACTICS

As a goddess, Thrude is stronger, tougher, and hardier than any mortal ever could be. She is equally at home on dry land, on the highest mountain, in the deepest ocean, or floating in the void of outer space. Although hunger and thirst cause her discomfort, they will not be her undoing. Like any god of the Aesir, but especially befitting the daughter of Thor and sister of Magni, Thrude's divine strength can toss automobiles into the air with the same ease as a child tosses a ball. Blades and bullets bounce harmlessly off of her skin.

As a member of a pantheon where every god is a "god of war," Thrude has received substantial training in both marksmanship and hand-to-hand combat. As a member of a pre-industrial civilization, she is a skilled hunter. She would fit in alongside any elite special forces unit in the world. That training is obvious to anyone with comparable instruction, even despite her fighting style being aggressive to the point of recklessness and straightforward to a fault.

As a wedding present, Alviss the dwarf runesmith forged for her Hridleif, The Storm's Legacy. While not in use, it takes the form of a simple but ornate drinking horn. However, when its power is needed, it transforms into a massive shapeshifting polearm. The ebony haft runs anywhere from one to three meters long, expanding and contracting at Thrude's mental command. The gleaming mithril head, over a meter wide, morphs at her whim between the shape of a double-headed battle axe or warhammer. Both head and haft are etched with magical Norse runes, killing words which summon lightning and frost to crackle and gleam along the weapon's edges. Hridleif appears to be completely impractical, and indeed, to anyone relying solely on the laws of physics, it is worse than useless, refusing even to move from its resting place. But in the hands of those with courage and honor enough to be deemed "worthy," it is light as a feather, even as it crushes mountains into dust or cleaves a dragon in twain. Hridleif is much more than a weapon. As with the mighty hammer Mjolnir wielded by her father, it is also a sceptre for the Princess of Storms. At the wielder's command (conscious or otherwise), mist shrouds the sky, rain and sleet pour down, and thunder and lightning crash. The air freezes into great blocks of ice in any shape they desire. Electricity arcs up and down the wielder's body. They can conjure up a horse with a body of mist and lightning for eyes which can bear them across the sky at many times the speed of sound, creating thunder with every hoofbeat and leaving a blazing streak of rainbow light in its passing.

COMPLICATIONS

Accidents: With Hridleif in her possession, Thrude has an intimate connection with the power of the storm, and it is not always under her control. When she feels particularly excited, distressed, or depressed, the weather around her often changes to reflect her mood, without conscious effort on her part. As a young and reckless warrior, she often takes action without full regard to the potential consequences. A GM should feel free to give her or her comrades a Hero Point in exchange for either temporarily forcing the "Uncontrolled" flaw upon one or more of her powers, or creating a new hazard as a result of their use.

Anachronism: Thrude spent the last thousand years imprisoned in a pocket dimension. A GM should feel free to give her or her comrades a Hero Point when her lack of context and familiarity with the modern world creates an inconvenient misunderstanding.

Brash: Thrude is young and inexperienced. She inherited her father's boundless passion and courage, but also his reckless short-sightedness and lack of tactical or scholarly acumen. She is prone to "jumping the gun," and a GM should feel free to dictate a less-than-optimal course of action for her, in exchange for a Hero Point (either for her, or for an ally inconvenienced by her actions).

Enemies: Thrude has inherited the enemies of the Aesir, who are legion. Their ranks include many of the Jotnar, especially Loki and the monsters he has birthed, as well as denizens of Midgard who suffered at the hands of Donar during his enslavement by the Thule Society. She has also locked swords with fellow weather manipulator Doctor Stratos. The GM can choose to have any of these foes show up at an inopportune time, making a bad situation worse.

Fear Itself: Mechanically speaking, Thrude's Fearless feat makes her immune to fear effects. However, the GM can give her a Hero Point to override that immunity and force her to roll a saving throw or contested check against a fear effect normally.

Lost Love: Thrude still grieves for Alviss, the dwarf runesmith to whom she was betrothed before her father murdered him. A GM should feel free to give Thrude a Hero Point in exchange for inflicting penalties upon her when she is distracted by his memory, or when an enemy uses that memory to manipulate her.

Obligations: Thrude is a scion of a large royal family, party to many treaties and alliances. The GM can choose to have familial or political obligations or debts of honor make her life inconvenient.

Reputation: The Thule Society's binding of Thor into the service of the Nazis during World War 2 did incalculable damage to the global perception of the Nordic pantheon. Both superheroes and the general public will be skeptical, at best, of Thrude's intentions. A GM should feel free to give Thrude a Hero Point in exchange for making NPCs less inclined, if at all, to trust or aid her. One way to represent this mechanically would be to force a penalty (or an automatic failure) on Bluff, Diplomacy, and/or Gather Information checks.
