Maximilian, Advanced Prototype.

F: Rm (30)
A: Rm (30)
S: In (40)
E: Am (50)
R: Typ (06)
I: Ex (20)
P: Rm (30)

Health: 150
Karma: 56
Popularity: 0
Resources: N/A

Talents:
As a robot, Maximilian can be programmed with whatever skills its creator determines it to have. In The Black Hole, Maximilian displayed (or was alluded to have) the following skills:

  • Knowledge: Cygnus Operations
  • Knowledge: Robotic Construction
  • Leadership* (Other Robots)
  • Administration: Cygnus
  • Edged Weapons
  • Starship Operations
  • Pilot
  • Aerial Combat
  • Computer Operation
  • Astrogation
  • Energy Weapons
  • Marksman*

Powers:
Robotic Construction: Maximilian is an advanced prototype of rogue genius Hans Reinhardt, built to serve as the first officer, chief enforcer, and silent assassin of its creator. Maximilian was designed for several purposes, and as such, has the following abilities:
  • Robotic Immunity: Maximilian does not need to eat, sleep, or breath. Maximilian is immune to disease and toxins, and can survive in the rigors of space.
  • Armored: Maximilian's outer construction is built to last, granting him In (40) protection against most energy and physical attacks. The outer shell can be pierced by objects such as high intensity drills (As V.I.N.C.E.N.T. did) or effects which could halve effective body armor rank. Maximilian's outer hull provided complete protection of its systems including and not limited to extreme pressure and temperature, in which it received a +1cs to resistance.
  • Multi-Armed: Maximilian possessed six separate 'arms', armed with fine actuators to serrated whirring blades. Maximilian could use its limbs for effect multiple actions, granting it up to three additional actions per round.
  • Serrated Blades: As stated previously, Maximillain's arms were equipped with claw-like blades which could be made to spin. Maximilian could do Ex (20) edged damage, halving effective body armor and protection.
  • Lasers: Maximilian was armed with lasers which could do Rm (30) damage.
  • Communication Systems: Maximilian was built with a transceiver which would allow it to communicate with its creator via ship systems and other robots in the S.T.A.R series. Maximilian could also interface with systems within the ship with Ex (20) ability and range.
  • Flight: Maximilian was always hovering, and possessed Ex (20) levitation and flight. Maximilian could maneuver at its Agility rank with a simple FEAT.
  • Higher Willpower: As shown in Max's RIP, Max was not a standard robot (Few robots go to hell). Max had its own Psyche score, and unlike other robots, was not hampered by the negatives often associated to cyborgs and robots. Max could even ignore the cries of its creator to save it.

Contacts:
Maximilian had only one contact, its creator Reinhardt.

Limitations:
Maximilian had several clear limitations:
  • Silent: Maximilian had no vocalization ability, and could not communicate with individuals.
  • Aggressive: Max was naturally aggressive, often attempt to provoke its 'guests'
  • Self-Survival: Max was ultimately willing to abandon its creator for its own survival.
  • Bloodthirsty: Maximilian was bloodthirsty, and would seek to kill when allowed. Max would spend Karma for kill results.

AhahahahahHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA!

Created to protect associates and congressional members, pirate-turned-vicar Christopher Syn donned a tattered costume and eerie paint, becoming the notorious and terrifying Scarecrow - Enemy to the unfairness of the crown. The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh.

  • Pulp Hero Luck: Although slightly ahead of the pulp hero mold, Syn can re-roll a single result during a combat and/or automatically make an Endurance FEAT vs. Death during a combat. Syn escaped from many different situations apparently through sheer will and luck.

Syn had many contacts throughout his life, both as the infamous pirate Captain Clegg and as his role as vicar. Syn's closest contacts included his most trusted aide, Mr. Mipps. Syn cultivated many, many contacts during his adventures and pursuit of his enemy.
