| − | '''Capsule:''' Thor is the thunder god of Norse mythology, prince of Asgard, the land of the gods, and son of the all-powerful Odin. He is the master of the storm and the wind, and a warrior like no other. Thor possesses Mjolnir, a magical hammer of immense power that was a gift of his father and can only be lifted by those that are "worthy".
| |
| − | | |
| − | In modern times Thor was sent to Earth by his father Odin, both to learn humility in the guise of crippled doctor Donald Blake and to protect Earth from evil menaces.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Thor became an important member of Earth's superhuman community and a member of the Avengers, Earth's greatest heroes. Nonetheless most people remain unaware, unbelieving, or uncaring that he really is a Norse God, and not only a human superhero patterned after the being of legend.

| | | | |
| − | '''Notes:''' I chose to make all the hammer usual capabilities an array of Alternate Powers. That is because every power depends on Thor taking some physical action (throwing the hammer and hanging to it to fly, whirling it to deflect, slamming it on the ground to summon rain), so he doesn't seem to be able to activate several hammer powers at once. | + | '''Abilities 92 + Skills 6 (24 ranks) + Feats 17 + Powers 111 + Combat 28 + Saves 10 = Total 264''' |
| − | | |
| − | The GM also should be generous in allowing weird Power Stunts based on his hammer (it's magical, it's powerful, and it can do a lot of stuff).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Though this is a point of controversy with some fans, I'm of the oppinion that Thor can '''not''' bounce bullets from his chest. That is why I gave him a Vulnerability. His tremendous toughness make him very resistant to punches and energy blasts, though.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Thor has had a number of Normal Identities in the past, the longer-lasting one the crippled physician Don Blake, but that aspect of the character is usually retooled whenever a new writer comes aboard, so I didn't include any such thing in this write-up.
