Winter Guard (PEACH)

[Cernunnos]

WINTER GUARD:
The Winter Guard is an amalgamation of Russian superhero groups, organized after the fall of the former Soviet Union. They are commonly hailed as being being "Russia's answer to the Avengers." Many members of the group at one time belonged to the Soviet Super-Soldiers, the People's Protectorate and the Supreme Soviets. Although they hold many things in common with other groups of heroes, they display two very distinct differences from other "more conventional" gathered hero initiatives.


Because they are program organized by the government, the Winter Guard is much more heroic and representative in nature, and less dversarial towards other superheroes within their ranks. Also unlike conventional superhero teams, the Winter Guard has a rotating pool of candidates to fill one of three roles on the team. These differences help strengthen the Russian superhero organization.

EQUIPMENT:
As a trained KGB agent, Dimitri has a wide variety of power armors with which he has access to. In order to reflect this, When determining a suit's characteristics that he currently wears, as Crimson Dynamo or Airstrike, derive the values through Ulimited Transform Self: 60-70 Stones.

Crimson Dynamo Power Armor: The Crimson Dynamo armor granted Bukharin superhuman strength and protection from most forms of attack. Complete with a sensor array, radio transceiver and jammer, rocket jets, and a one-hour air supply, the armor also possessed massive shoulder pads for ramming opponents and the ability to generate powerful destructive bolts of electricity.

Airstrike Power Armor: The Airstrike armor offers similar strength, protection, and flight capabilities as the Crimson Dynamo armor. Its offensive capabilities include conventional machine guns, missiles mounted on the back of the armor, and a powerful laser.

Cool team, cool writeups, but I have one suggestion: I'd tone down Ursa Major's strength and Durability. 6 Durability is in the range of the Thing.

Adding to what UrbanBlue said (and, yeah, I'd go with a 5 Durability for something like that): Reasonably sure Darkstar's a mutant, too. Would love to see stats on the Crimson Dynamo armor (Durability 4 seems a bit high for him and Darkstar, though. 3 would work. His armor should have higher Dur [probably in the 5 range.])

Doubly noted! =)

That was a c+p error! LOL!

Noted! =)
