Building my first Freedom City hero

EDIT: Re-done to my new Curator concept.

Hey guys, I could sure use some help fleshing out my first character and tweaking his stats to be up to par.

The Curator actually is the curator of a prominent museum. On the job, he discovered various items in the museum's collection were actually powerful relics, and decided to keep them out of the wrong hands by using them himself. (need to flesh out the details of his backstory, a lot).

As far as powers and combat, his primary, dependable shtick is a shield-and-sword combination that he uses while flying around on his winged sandals (insert fencing team at Harvard or Yale or whatever into background here). Additionally, he's got some protection in terms of an Amulet and a magically reinforced business suit. And then, of course, he's got the Gadgets power to represent his grab-bag of other magical do-dads.

I stated out the Shield, Sword, Suit, and Sandals as straight powers, not devices, because I'd like him to be able to have those around all the time, maybe summoning them at will or wearing them concealed or 'subtle' somehow. The suit, in particular, I imagine him having multiple of, stashed away at home. Other things, like the gadgets power, are normal devices. I included a 1-point powerloss drawback to represent the non-device items being taken away from him (e.g. the sword is taken outside his summoning range, or magically warded), not sure if that's valid or how big it should be.

Totally not sure if I've forgotten something or if there's any particular weakness that I could spend my remaining points to easily cover.

Thanks in advance!

p.s. Sorry about weak formatting.
