Precognition: Yukio has been shown to be a mutant with precognitive abilities, granting her the following abilities:

• Death Precognition:  Yukio can see with Rm (30) ability how a person is going to die, often in flashes of images. Yukio's predictions seem to be tied to her emotional connection or involvement with the individual. The closer to the person Yukio predicted with accuracy the deaths of her parents and others she has had an emotional connection to. Yukio cannot control this ability, and must make a Psyche FEAT when she has an image or suffer -1cs to her actions when the situation presents itself.

E: Gd (10)
R: Gd (10)
I: Rm (30)*
P: Rm (30)*

Health: 52 (hey! It's DC's magic number!)
Karma: 70
Popularity: well, it depends. Most of the time 10
Resources: Pr (4)

Talents
Detective/Esiponage (Theoretically)
Comic Continuum Ethics and Physics (Well, he's a little low on the ethics part)
Crossover Physics: (He understands that Superman in his book sells, but Batman makes it golden)
Knowledge: Hero/Villain lore
Knowledge: DC Universe (all of it)
Knowledge: Superman (He practically stalks him)

Powers:

• Teleportation: Ambush Bug used to use little flying bugs that would grant him Un (100) teleportation, but since that was sort of stupid, he ditched them.
• Body Armor: Ambush Bug's costume provides Ex (20) protection from Physical, Energy, Acid, Disease, Radiation, Continuity, Scarlet Witch Reality Alteration, Skrull Replacement, Final Crisis exposition, and Wolverine Crossovers.
• Comic Awareness*: This power is awesome to behold, and so far, only Ambush Bug and maybe Keith Giffen understand it. Basically, Ambush Bug is fully aware he is a comic book character. This makes him impervious to some degree from permanent character death (although, many many many people have tried. As Ambush Bug is aware he is in a comic, he's not bound by certain rules, such as having to die, mandatory crossovers, and permanent injury. Ambush Bug also knows he's a possible character in a game, so plan accoringly.
• Weirdness Magnet: Like the power Troubleshooter, Ambush Bug is automatically drawn to the paranormal, the weird, the...stupid. From talking Socks with Dr. Doom fixations to toy sidekicks, Ambush Bug is drawn to these things.
• Apathy Will: Like Iron Will, except not exactly, Ambush bug has 'Apathy Will' at Un (100). Basically, Ambush Bug's apathy is so great that he ignores things, such as 100' tall were-koalas (Issue #2) or Darkseid (Original Miniseries). Ambush Bug's Apathy Will works against Ambush Bug as well, except in the immediate presence of Cheex the Toy Wonder, Superman, "Hot Super Chicks" or continuity that is so confusing that it baffles him.

Contacts:

The Dumb Bunny from the Inferior Five, or as Ambush Bug says, Mrs. Schwab (It was a quicky in Vegas)
Jonni DC, the former Continuity Cop for the DC Universe
Cheex The Toy Wonder: A toy that Ambush Bug made his side-kick (Stats below)
Superman: Although Superman is rather reluctant to admit that he knows Ambush Bug, Ambush Bug is Superman's *GREATEST* fan.

Limitations:

• Immortal: Ambush Bug is not on Death's list (Death of the Endless actually looked, he's not there)
• Banned: Ambush Bug is banned from many comics on principal.
• Insane and Absurd: The Joker thought the Ambush Bug was seriously F'd up. Seriously.
• Unusual Looks; Come on, he's in a bright green costume with antenna.
• Enemies: From Scabbard to Darkseid, Ambush Bug's made a few.

IT'S A DOLL!!!!!!!!

Count Orlok from 'Nosferatu' (1922)

imply put, I think without Nosferatu, modern horror movies would have been far different. While F.W. Murnau sought to create his own version of Dracula after being refused the rights to the novel, it was clear that he had something unique...something that hit a cord within both the movie audiences of the period or any period for that matter.

While Dracula was cultured, Orlok was diseased. While Dracula was handsome, Orlok was hideous. While the novel Dracula was as much a part of the invasion genre of British Literature, Nosferatu was part of the post World War expressionist movement, representing a type of horror associated with the survivors of the great war.

I have always been fascinated with Count Orlok, not just for his distinctive style but also the absolute way that Murnau sought to frame the character. I always felt that while Orlok and Dracula have similar plans, similarities end with the story points: While both are monsters, Orlok is more overt about it, and in many ways, is more terrifying.


So, for the final write-up of this year's Halloween, Count Orlok

Health: 130

Popularity: - 10 (As the spreader of the plague)
Resources: Rm (30)


Talents:

Mystic Origin*
Multi-Lingual
Acting

Powers:

Nosferatu: Orlok is a Nosferatu (Bird of Death), but is only vaguely similar to the types of vampires that are reflected by Dracula. Orlok's limitations are more severe, and cannot easily make others of his kind. Those who die by Orlok's hands do not rise as vampires, nor is Orlok able to remain active during the hours of daylight. Orlok however does not have the traditional limitations of vampires at the same time. Orlok's abilities and limitations include:

• Increased FASERIP: Orlok's physical presence is greatly increased, and is capable of superhuman acts as shown in the Book of the Vampyre read by Hutter and his fiance.
• Shadow-casting: It is suggested that Orlok can shadow-cast with Ex (20) ability, as shown in different scenes within the original silent movie and the remake in the 1970s.
• Terrifying presence: When Orlok is not disguised, he generated Pr (4) fear generation as seen to cause me to freeze with fright
• Vampyre: Similar to Bio-vampirism, Orlok is not specifically stated to require lifeblood to live, but does kill a number of people for it. Unlike the traditional vampire, Orlok does not suffer from not feeding, as his life-force is tied more to his native soil than blood. In addition, Orlok cannot create others of his kind as a vampire does. The exact means that Orlok would create other vampyres is unknown. As a vampyre, Orlok is virtually immune to damage, and can only be killed either by sunlight or through decapitation. The advised means to kill Orlok is to stall him with the blood of a pure girl as the sun rises.
• Natural Weaponry Claws: Orlok has wickedly sharp claws capable of doing Ex (20) damage, halving effective body armor. If a yellow or red result is achieved, the victim must also make an Endurance FEAT versus disease.
• Plague Carrier: Orlok carries a variation of the Black Plague, and spreads it through bites. Orlok is often suggested to be the origin of outbreaks of the plague across Germany. Orlok does this with Rm (30) ability.
• Rat/Insect Control: Orlok controls rats and insects with Rm (30) ability
• Heightened Senses: Orlok possesses heightened senses with Ex (20) ability.

Contacts:

None

Limitations:

• Bloodlust: Orlok is bloodthirsty, and while not necessarily needing it for survival, will go out of his way to feed. Orlok suffers -2cs to actions to prevent him from feeding.
• Vampyre: While not a traditional vampire, Orlok is a Vampyre (There is a marked difference). Orlok is completely vulnerable to sunlight, which will kill him within seconds. Secondly, Orlok must have soil of his home to rest and regenerate his powers. Without such, Orlok dies.
• Repugnant: Orlok is hideous, suffering a -1cs reaction bonus

Unarmed Combat

Powers:
Windigo: In many ways, Ives is the truest interpretation of the Native American legend of the Windigo, granted superhuman powers from feasting on human flesh. Prior to his initial feast, Ives was dying of Tuberculosis, and found himself not only empowered but fully healed. Trapping victims and seeking to convert others, Ives gained the following abilities:

• Altered FASERIP: Ives's stats are a result of his ingestion of human flesh. These attributes are permanently increased, and as such, he is far stronger and capable of greater feats of Endurance than his wiry frame suggests. In addition, Colonel Ives's perception and senses are increased, granting him the increased intuition
• Regeneration: Ives can recover from near fatal wounds with Rm (30) ability, which can be accelerated with ingestion of human flesh (See Recovery).
• Recovery: Rm (30) ability to recover endurance ranks and/or health at an alarming rate. Ives can gain a +2cs increase to his Recovery when eating people, as seen in the movie, recovering from near fatal wounds nearly instantly.
• Hyper Speed: Pr (4): Ives has increased physical speed as a result of his transformation, and can move far faster than a trained military officer.
• Increased Senses: Smell: Ives has gained an increased sense of smell at Gd (10)
• Iron Will: Ives has Ex (20) Iron will, capable of ignoring gunshots and other forms of damage to a point. While the damage is still done, Ives ignores it.
• Longevity*: While not expressly stated, it is clear that the feast of flesh rejuvenated Ives, and possibly extended his lifespan.

Contacts:
None, although he converts Colonel Hart to his dietary plan, Hart would not be considered a contact.

Limitations:
Dark Secret: Ives is a cannibal
Addiction: Ives must feed on human flesh. Every day without a serving causes him to become neurotic, reducing his regeneration and recovery attributes (but strangely leaving his adjusted FASE). Ives needs a Psyche FEAT to maintain control of himself, and especially during moments of 'The kill'
