Peter Wyatt Richards, AKA Positron, is the third, youngest child of Susan and Reed Richards. He looks like a Storm (although with darker hair), but has the brains of his father and sister.

- Like his siblings, Peter is a mutant thanks to the cosmic radiation that the Fantastic Four were exposed to all those years ago. In Peter's case, he has the ability to summon negative zone energy. Initially, this manifested as a "Kirby Krackle" effect that he would form around his hands, and as short range bursts of energy. During the recent journey to Dimension 6, however, Peter (who was suffering one of his "allergic reactions" at the time) exhibited a sudden burst of power, more akin to his Uncle Johnny "flaming on." The energy suddenly appeared across his entire body, and he found himself unleashing much larger energy beams.

- Peter was named after his "Uncle Spidey", occasional FF member and close family friend Peter Parker. His middle name comes from Wyatt Wingfoot.

- For reasons as yet unknown, Peter cannot safely leave Earth. It was discovered when he was very young that he exhibits increasingly severe symptoms as soon as he leaves his homeworld. Initially, he suffers nosebleeds and a migraine. Within a matter of minutes, the agony becomes crippling, as if his entire head is about to explode. Shortly thereafter, he becomes catatonic. He hasn't had the misfortune to find out what comes next, and the length of time it takes for symptoms to manifest varies because comics. - Reed, Peter, and others use to believe that Peter's "allergy" was limited to space travel, since he has been to other dimensions on occasion with no ill effect. However, during the Dimension 6 incursion he suffered the same symptoms. He soon realized that this was caused by portals to Earth constantly opening and closing. As long as there is a conduit back to Earth, he seems to be all right.

- Peter's costume is a version of the traditional white and black Future Foundation uniform. In place of the hexes or numbers normally worn by the senior members of the team, he has a section black Kirby Krackle on his chest. Needless to say, the costume is made of unstable molecules, so is highly resistant to wear and tear. It also has the ability to alter form to street clothes, etc. and has a built in computer link, comm unit, and a handful of other gadgets. It has also been established that the belt buckle is actually a small drone that can seek out other superheroes before triggering a modern, souped-up holographic FF flare. (I picture this having a set hierarchy of who it will seek out. ie; The FF first, other Future Foundation students/teachers/alumni second, etc.)

THE PROTÉGÉ

Hero Name: Positron

Real Name: Peter Richards

Age: 16

LOOK

ABILITIES

You are someone’s protégé. Your powers largely mimic theirs, but each of you is in some way unique. Pick one ability you both share and one ability for each of you that is uniquely yours.

Shared Ability: Supergenius


Your Own Ability: Elemental Control (Negative Zone Energy)


Your Mentor's Ability: Body Elasticity


MENTOR


You have a mentor, someone who’s taught you, trained you, given you aid, or raised you up. Someone who might have confined you a bit too rigidly to a single path. Which Label do they embody, and which do they deny? (circle one each)

EMBODIES Savior Danger Freak Superior Mundane

DENIES Savior Danger Freak Superior Mundane


LABELS

DANGER 0

FREAK +2

SAVIOR 0

SUPERIOR +3

MUNDANE +1

When our team first came together...

We stuck together after all was said and done. Why? How’d we keep in contact? Uncle Ben saw something in us.

RELATIONSHIPS You and Shimmer teamed up a few times before the rest of you came together.

Your mentor is cautious; they asked you to keep an eye on Sefu.

INFLUENCE

Choose your demeanor: playful

If you choose playful, give Influence to two teammates.

If you choose business, give Influence to no teammates.

MOVES

Been reading the files: You’ve learned about the superhuman world through your mentor’s resources. When you first encounter an important superpowered phenomenon (your call), roll + Superior. On a hit, tell the team one important detail you’ve learned from your studies. The GM will tell you what, if anything, seems different from what you remember. On a 10+, ask the GM a follow-up question; they will answer it honestly. On a miss, the situation is well outside your base of knowledge; the GM will tell you why.

Be mindful of your surroundings: When you assess the situation before entering into a fight, you may ask one additional question, even on a miss.

Heroic tradition: When you give someone the advice that you think your mentor would give, you can roll + the Label your mentor embodies to comfort or support someone, instead of rolling + Mundane.

Burn:When you charge up your powers, roll + conditions you currently have marked. On a hit, hold 3 burn. On a 7-9, mark a condition. On a miss, hold 2 burn and mark three conditions. Spend your burn on your flares. You lose all burn at the end of the scene.

Current flares:

Overcharge: You channel the full capacity of your incredible powers to overcome an obstacle, reshape your environment, or extend your senses. Spend 2 burn to take a 10+ when you unleash your powers.

MENTOR'S RESOURCES

- A hidden base *Not actually all that hidden. It's the old Pier 4 warehouse on the waterfront. It was destroyed at one point, later rebuilt, and eventually mothballed. Ben gave me the keys.

- A supercomputer

- Surveillance equipment

- A teleportal

- A weapon of last resort

- Security systems

- Simple robots (H.E.R.B.I.E. units)

MOMENT OF TRUTH

The moment that you show who you really are: your mentor, or something different. You can do whatever your mentor could do and more. You can do the incredible, even the things they always failed to accomplish. Of course, they’re not going to see you the same way, no matter which path you choose…

TEAM MOVES

When you share a triumphant celebration with someone, ask them if you’ve been a good leader or effective teammate. If they say yes, your mentor loses Influence over you and you mark potential. If they say no, your mentor gains Influence over you, and you take +1 forward on using the Label your mentor embodies.

When you share a vulnerability or weakness with someone, tell them a secret about your mentor (including your feelings towards them). Give them Influence over you and add 1 Team to the pool.
