Playbook: Bull

Hero Name: Flickr

Real Name: Unknown

Look: Man, white, calloused hands, ragged clothing, no costume. Flickr boasts a toned, but fairly average frame despite standing 190cm (six foot three) tall, presenting as a little lanky in certain lights. With a dirty face of slightly precocious stubble for the eighteen-year-old and a mess of emerald hair with dark roots and short, black back and sides he comes off as rather unkempt, normal considering his homeless status. He looks Northwestern European in descent but has the kind of natural tan one gets unavoidably by being outside all the time, rather than acquired and carefully-distributed. Flickr dresses eclectically, but his clothes are always ragged, punkish and have spray paint stains; lately he has been sporting an emerald green tweed blazer with a number of genuine bullet holes in it. Goggles, a flannel-pattern face scarf and fingerless gloves are also in persistent attendance due to his graffiti art habit. There is a measure of generally dressing for ease of movement however, as he's picked up the useful talent of parkour for a homeless kid in Halycon City.

Abilities: Superhumanly tough, incredibly strong and uniquely skilled at fighting. Flickr, appropriate to his name, is in a subtle state of constantly flickering between thousands of microseconds in time. Due to this, impacts, currently tested to the point of gunfire, distribute their energy through this flickering incarnations and ultimately bounce off his skin. Similarly, although Flickr himself is not built to throw a particularly strong punch, when you factor in the strength of a thousand different versions of him, the combined impact of that energy is frequently deadly when misused. Although Flickr has learned to street fight over the years, most of his talent comes from this state of flickering through times, it grants him the ability to anticipate actions, especially in states of heightened stress and thus react to foil them before they have even begun. Flickr does not understand the extent of these abilities yet and is still slowly easing into their use, generally preferring not to push his luck.

Labels: Danger +2 Freak +2 Savior -1 Superior +1 Mundane -1

Moves:

You've got a head you don't need: When you provoke someone with obvious threats and shows of force, roll +Danger instead of +Superior.

In a china shop: When you directly engage a threat, you can cause significant collateral damage to your environment to choose an additional option, even on a miss.
