The cybernetic implants had saved his life, but at the price of taking away his psychic powers and leaving him a lumbering automaton. It was then that Omega whispered to him in the darkness of power and revenge, how he could destroy both the hated Psi-Knights who had abandoned him and the Dark Lords who had replaced them. He was tempted, tempted enough to take the bribe of an eerie gold ring that tapped into the power of the Terminus itself, but his hero's heroes, not to mention picturing what his son and daughter would say about this, made him pull back from the brink before he could fall over the edge. Now he has a new home in Freedom City, where he works to fight for honor and justice as he once did in his homeworld, making amends for the failure of conscience that once nearly delivered his entire world into the hands of the dark side. Yes, it's Darth Vader with a power ring, inspired by Doc's Martial Artist with a Power Ring build. I think I captured most of what Darth Vader can reasonably do. He can summon blazing red (or yellow) weapons, throw heavy objects or casually lift men with one hand, or just throttle bad guys with his mind! (Not to death, though, obviously) He can make surprisingly acrobatic leaps despite his massive metallic bulk, take big hits, and if he's concentrating he can casually deflect Blast 5-Blast 8 Blaster pistols with his free hand while sitting down for his nice lunch. He doesn't have a lot of options in combat besides Startle, but his high Sense Motive should keep acrobatic young striplings from catching him flat-footed too often. He can fly his own space fighter OK if he has to, enough to hold his own against enemy NPC pilots thanks to his HP and other abilities. He can also go out into space on his own if he has to! I went with a vaguely techno-psionic feel to his powers here, with a natural Terminus connection, but you could go a lot of ways with this. Perhaps he was an angel tempted into Falling, wearing the infernal ring that once tempted him, or perhaps he formerly was a magician that now wears the ring of the pseudonatural forces he once battled! As written he has no problems with taking off a helmet and breathing normally (though all his powers are implanted in him), adding the device discount and a drawback that it partially buys off could free up a lot of points for you. It's up to you whether you want to bother saving up enough points for a space battleship, and maybe some minions to go with it...
