Resources:15
- Corporate Leader (CEO of McDuck Enterprises. Scrooge owns dozens of companies, banks, businesses, mines, companies, buildings and so on all over the world, and has worked long and hard to make each and every one of them as profitable and efficient as possible, at the lowest cost possible.)
- Respected Status (Wealthiest member of the Billionaires Club of Duckburg, which includes the wealthiest people in the world, despite what the name implies.)
- Loyal Aide (Duckworth and Bentina Beakley, respectively Scrooge's Butler/chauffeur, and his personal maid and secretary, who can handle most of his work with relative ease in his absence, in addition to maintaining order in his mansion. They are both incredibly capable and strong-willed, and very loyal to Scrooge.)
- Powerful Enforcers (3x; The Duck Avenger/Doubleduck, Darkwing Duck and Gizmoduck. Although they do not work for him per se, unbeknownst to Scrooge, three of his family/friends/employees are actually superheroes; respectively his own nephew Donald Duck - whose secret identity is The Duck Avenger/the secret agent Doubleduck; Drake Mallard, also known as Darkwing Duck; and Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera, who is Gyro Gearloose's assistant, and secretly the cybernetic hero known as Gizmoduck.)
- Combat Team (Again, while they are not 'technically' an official combat team at his beck and call, Scrooge has several powerful and/or skilled friends and allies who are often more than willing to assist him when necessary, and often incredibly successful despite being technically civilians. Examples include the amateur detective Mickey Mouse and his friend Goofy, Donald's girlfriend Daisy, Mickey's surprisingly smart dog Pluto, Scrooge's grandnephews Huey, Dewey and Louie and Bentina's daughter Webby Vanderquack, Scrooge's personal pilot Launchpad McQuack, etcetera.)
- Unique Technology (Various of Gyro Gearloose's inventions. Gyro has created all sorts of technology vastly exceeding the limitations of what is commonly available in their world, including a faster-than-light starship, real self-evolving A.I, pills granting the ability to breathe underwater, an honest-to-God time machine, and so much more.)
- Respected Status (Among Treasure hunters and the Archaeology community worldwide. Scrooge is arguably the most successful treasure hunter to have ever lived, and is far from done seeking more and more treasures. As such, he is a worldwide authority and expert on the subject.)
- Heir Apparent (Llewellyn ”Louie" Duck, the one among his grandnephews to display the most interest in money and business skills. Scrooge is happily teaching him the ropes and hoping to make him follow in his footsteps.)
- Network of Informants (As part of Scrooge's massive financial empire, he also maintains a vast information network and actual spies occasionally, when the need arises.)
- Chraitable Foundation (While Scrooge himself does not maintain his own charitable foundation, he secretly gives a lot of money yearly to such organizations, under the cover of anonimity; as according to him, he 'has a reputation to maintain'.)
- Private Army (The McDuck Security Force is a paramilitary force maintained by Scrooge around his most important facilities to protect himself, his family and his fortune when necessary. They are usually very effective, though for some reason, Scrooge himself and his own civilian friends and family often succeed where the Security Force fails.)
- Secure Headquarters (Scrooge's Money Bin, which is arguably the most heavily defended non-military building in the world, with his Security Force guards, traps, arsenal, heavily reinforced walls and security checkpoints.)
- Financial Backing (The inventor Gyro Gearloose. Gyro greatly admires Scrooge, as he was the only one who actually believed the genius to be capable of what he claimed he was in his time of need, and as such he has moved on to work for the magnate as his personal inventor. Scrooge often backs him up financially for pretty much any invention which could potentially assist him or profit him, and also some more which have nothing to do with him, much to the man's delight.)
CHALLENGES
-Looking Non-Human (-4; Scrooge is a 3' tall, sentient, talking anthropomorphic duck. Which is fine in his original world, but might be troublesome in others.)
-Minor Disability (-1; mild presbyopia. Scrooge's eyesight is not what it used to be. He is slightly farsighted and needs glasses to read up close.)
-Psychological (-2; moderate frugality. Scrooge despises unnecessary spending of money and favors relative simplicity, being economical and thrifty over careless use of money.)
-Psychological (-1; mild cynicism. Scrooge sees most people as selfish, lazy and untrustworthy, and does not typically expects strangers to prove him wrong on this.)
-Psychological (-1; short temper. Not unlike his nephew Donald - though to a lesser extent - Scrooge has a rather short fuse and can somewhat easily get angered by various things, including laziness, foolishness, and dishonesty.)
-Covetous (-2; moderate greed. Scrooge loves money, treasures, riches, coins, precious metals, gems, and so on, and on. 'Having enough' is not part of his vocabulary when it's about money.)
-Code of honor (-3; Scrooge never breaks a promise, never lies and never cheats. 'Making it square' is one of his main mottos.)
-C.T.S.U.F.U (-2; despite his love for money, Scrooge is a good guy at heart. While he wouldn't admit it outright, he would go out of his way to help someone in need.)
-Loyalty (-3; towards his family. The one thing Scrooge likes more than money and adventure is his family, and he's been shown in the past to willingly lose - or fail to gain - entire fortunes in order to protect his family.)
-Obsession (-2; drive for adventure, new goals and facing new challenges. Scrooge is not content with being home and making money from his already established financial empire; he will go out of his way to seek out and investigate leads and legends about lost treasures waiting to be discovered. Additionally, he is always up for learning new skills and try out new things to make his life more interesting.)
-Prejudice/hatred (-2; towards lazy people who aren't willing to put in the effort necessary to make a profit, and liars, cheaters, scammers and other such types.)
-Reluctant to Kill (-1; while Scrooge isn't afraid to get his hands dirty and is more than willing to defend himself or that/those which/whom he cares about, he is no killer and would not only refrain from killing if at all possible, but also actually saved the lives of some of his enemies over the years, including some who were actually trying to kill him. That being said, he is willing to hurt his foes if necessary as well.)
-Secret (-1; for all his 'typical' greed and frugality, Scrooge is actually quite generous and gives a lot of money to charity... while going out of his way in order to keep that fact hidden, as he 'has an old grumpy greedy duck reputation to maintain', and fears people would bother him constantly if that truth came to be known.)
-Deadly Enemies (-5; Scrooge McDuck has lived a long, eventful life, made a lot of friends and met many allies... but also earned himself a rather long list of foes, including the Beagle Boys and their Ma, his rival Flintheart Glomgold, the evil organization known as F.O.W.L, and the witch Magica De Spell.)
EQUIPMENT
-Currently Worn: Red coat, white spats and black Top hat (the latter which has a lot of sentimental value to him)
-Cane (+2 Melee Weapon, +1 to throw objects, +1 to Acrobatics for jumping person by using it as a pogo stick. Additionally, has a hidden +3, 3x damage, Stun damage only gas projector in the tip.)
-Number One Dime (The first dime Scrooge ever won. Believed by many - Scrooge included - to be the source of his good luck and wealth, but is actually a very ordinary, though old American dime. Still, Scrooge considers it to be his most prized possession.)
-Smartphone
RESERVE EQUIPMENT (Kept in his mansion, money bin and other properties worldwide)
-Many weapons both archaic and modern, including ancient swords, spears and so on, but also guns, cannons, explosives and so on and forth
-Multiple of Gyro Gearloose's inventions
______________________________________________________________
STORY: The wealthiest
Despite his very advanced age, Scrooge is in astonishingly great physical shape (possibly due to an immortality obtained during his many adventures, and further enforced by strange druidic stones close to Castle McDuck in Scotland), and is a surprisingly skilled fighter, marksman, pilot and explorer, having faced countless dangers and threats over his long life of treasure hunting. His intellect and experience have often allowed him to escape otherwise life-threatening situations relatively unharmed multiple times, often with great profit along the way. However, it would be bragging to imply his unusually favorable luck and multiple allies didn't play a significant role in it.
Now imagine what would happen if one Scrooge McDuck was to discover an entire multiverse of treasure and adventure just waiting out there...
