Big Joe

Joe Sand, Seasoned Male Sea Titans, MARS Psi-Warrior


Iconic Framework: MARS Psi-Warrior
Background
His mom told him before she was captured his father was some sort of water demigod from the old Americas. Well Joe believes it, he has the strength and power of titan all packed into the compact form that makes way to many people under estimate him.
But what he lacks in height he makes up for in in determination and go. The dark olive skill and dark hair would instantly give him away as being of north African decent to most people. But his height is usually where people stop inspecting him.
Big Joe is normally in control of himself, but he has been known to stand up to many a fights that most men would have backed away from. With a tendency to think he can take anyone on and habit of targeting the biggest meanest guy on the battle field, Big Joe has taken more than one solid smack to the face.
It is not uncommon for Joe to wake up after a battle not quite remembering what hit him. But luckily his regenerative abilities are enough that he is always back in the line after a day or two.

Description
4' 9" Olive skinned, dark hair and dark eyes.
Standing in at 4' 9", and lightly built Big Joe just barely missed being 5'. But what he lacks in stature he makes up for in personality. Confident to the extreme, he is friendly to others as long as they do not threaten him.
But mess with him and his ego will kick in, causing him to become much less friendly.

Armor: Gladiator Medium Combat Armor (Armor 7)
ATEA-50 Supai Stealth EBA (Patron Item) (SWADE)
Image
Northern Gun, Triax, and the Coalition may all disparage Naruni, but never let it be said they are above a little repurposing and backwards engineering. Based on captured NE-C20, this medium armor practically makes its wearer invisible. The issue is that the armor proved cost inefficient and was shelved with only a small batch of prototypes being produced as a joint effort. All three nations have the plans and a few prototypes.
• +6 Armor and +2 Toughness
• Low Light Vision and EBA Armor
• The armor grants a +2 bonus to stealth in any setting due to a computer controlled fiber-optic covering, and padded boots and joints.
• This suit is customized for concealment, and can be worn under loose clothing without attracting attention. Detecting the armor requires a Notice roll at –2. Note that if anything is covering the armor (loose clothes, coats, cloaks, ponchos, etc), neither the Cloaking technology nor fiber optics work correctly.
• Experimental Cloaking Technology powered by an experimental self charging battery.
• • Functional equivalent of the Invisibility power, activated using the Electronics skill, but it is only effective against any technological sensor (including cybernetics, body armor optics, power armor, vehicle, and robot sensors).
• •The battery holds the equivalent of 10 PP, and recharges at a rate of 1 PP per hour. If plugged into a major energy source (generator, city power grid, etc) it can recharge 5 PP per hour instead, but must remain immobile.
• Minimum Strength: d4 (13 lbs.)
Notes: Technology Base is one of Coalition, Northern Gun, or Triax (pick). This determines how you got it. Cost for Repair Purposes: 230,000


Weapons:
  • Unarmed (Range Melee, Damage Str)
    Psi-Blade (Range Melee, Damage Str+d8+smite, AP 20, M.D.C.)
    Wilk’s 320 Laser Pistol (Range 15/30/60, Damage 3d6, ROF 1, AP 2)

Pa's Magiced up Necklass
Big Joe was left with very little from his father. The man was driven like mad to go out and help people. Well that drive ended up with him being captured by slavers, at least that is what the other navy men said when they came back and told mom.
Because of his sudden departure all that was left from his dad, and eventually passed on to Big Joe when mama died was the amulet he left her. He said the thing was magic and could help keep her safe. Well it worked great and mama was safe for a long time before the wasting disease took her. Now that Joe is out and about having fun of his own, he has Pa's magiced up neckless and wears it constantly.
Big Joe ain't willy though. He knows the thing makes his mind sharp as a tack and lets him know all kinds of good stuff people need to know. More than once the thing has warned him someone was up to no good, or to look out for a feller that was gonna cheat in a fight.
Amulet of Awareness - This amulet is set with a 1" cats eye stone in it that somehow always seems to being oriented on perpendicular to he wearer and rests just under the collarbone. The wearer of this amulet gain a preternatural intuition about the world, letting him "know things" usually even before they happen, and even react before anything happens.
  • Danger Sense
  • Alertness
  • +2 to Notice rolls
  • Cost: 70,000

    Base Item: 10,000
    Novice Edge: 20,000
    Novice Edge: 20,000
    Trait Bonus: 10,000
    Trait Bonus: 10,000
    Total: 70,000

He raised an attribute (Spirit d8) and bought an edge (Master of Magic).
