Karnak 2e

Real Name: Unrevealed

First Appearance: Fantastic Four #45 (Dec, 1965)

Creators: Stan Lee and Jack Kirby

Capsule: Karnak is a member of the royal family of the Inhumans, a genetic offshoot of mankind that lives in the hidden city of Attilan. Each Inhuman possesses a superpower derived from exposure to a mutagenic known as the Terrigen Mist. Karnak has moderately superhuman physical attributes and, most importantly, the power to detect the weak points of any creature or structure.

Karnak is a philosopher and a scholar, the most level-headed and restrained of the Inhuman Royal Family next to Black Bolt. His personality is a direct contrast to that of his cousing and constanct companion, Gorgon, with whom Karnak has a sort of friendly rivalry.

Abilities: Karnak follows the Martial Artist archetype, but with physical attributes in the lower superhuman levels. His schtick is his ability to detect the "stress points" of any creature and structure.

Since M&M lacks a proper "Find Weakness" ability, I chose to represent this ability as a variant of Drain Toughness (a Boost to his Strength or to the offensive powers of anyone he advises would also work, but would go against PL restrictions).

When Karnak attacks a larger structure after detecting it's stress point, the GM should maybe allow his attack to be considered an Area attack.
