In costume he seems something like a dark cleric. The mask is makeshift from an old worn scarf, thin enough to see through. Gold pieces adorn him, the staple being an ‘eye’ with a delta symbol in the middle of his face.
 
Has a third persona; a trench coat wearing bystander that sits by cape fights. He uses this ‘costume’ to hide his normal costume and later changes to join the fight after amping capes enough.

He’s the worst type of Trump. A power granter with a Master effect. Though, it’s a bit more unique.
''Trigger type:'' Single Natural Trump
 
He’s the worst type of Trump; a power amplifier with no way to de-escalate. His power can target up to five (5) parahumans within an area equal to a football field. These capes start to have their powers grow in strength however there is a catch; the more a power gets boosted, the more likely the cape will lose control of the power. (Brutes lose their coordination and can possibly shatter what they're holding, or a Thinker would start to process too much and get a migraine more intense than they’ve had before.) He can choose when to stop boosting a power, but cannot retract the boosts. Boosted powers go onto a scale from one (1) to ten (10), after a certain point (level six (6)) their power can become unstable or unreliable which results in misfires within the power. The time it takes to go up one (1) level is one round of actions; but once a power is at level seven (7) it would take three (3) rounds to get to level eight (8) then another four (4) to reach level nine (9) and then another five rounds to reach level ten (10). [1-7: 1 round each, 7-8: 3 rounds, 8-9: 4 rounds, 9-10: 5 rounds] When a power reaches levels nine (9) or ten (10) the manton protections begin to break down. Powers will increase in strength from levels one (1) to seven (7) where one (1) is barely noticeable and seven (7) being the point of the highest benefit with the least amount of detriment comparatively. At eight (8), nine (9), and ten (10) the detriment increases exponentially until the power starts to break down. The benefits at this point are not comparable to the downside that would be suffered.
 


His power can target a handful of parahumans in the area. Those capes start to have their powers slowly grow in strength. The catch is; The more a power gets boosted, the more likely the cape will start to lose control of the power. (Brutes lose their carefulness and shatter what they're holding, or a Thinker would start to see too much and get a migraine.)


Of course, he himself does not control the victims, but he can choose when to stop boosting a power. Boosting powers can go onto a scale, at a certain point the powers become unstable. Eventually, Evolutionist himself will be affected and all targets slowly regress in the scale. (A 1 can be the base power, 5 is almost out of hand, and 10 is ‘Oh God I’m burning everything.’)

The time it takes to go up one notch is around a minute, but starting at 7 it would take +5 min every time. (1-2-3-4-5-6-7: 1m each, 7-8: 5m, 8-9: 10m, 9-10: 15m)


Some cases of being buffed could lead to manton limit breaks, good and bad. Maybe you start to hurt when you’re a durability brute and punch hard. Maybe your aim is being thrown off by your own blasts recoil. Maybe you telefragged a friendly when teleporting. Limits start to tear around 6-7, then passed that it gets worse.


The range is about 40ft. Takes less than a minute to begin to climb up when in touch range. Within 20ft it would be less than 3 min. Then in 40ft around 5 min, but after 5 minutes it will affect everyone without discrimination. When the effect stops, capes will slowly dwindle back to normal in 10 minutes.
Has a minor parahuman sense; When activating the power, can feel the shard connections to chosen capes. It applies if he knows that they’re a cape. Can’t use it to find capes if he doesn’t know. When targeting capes through walls, he must know there is a cape on the other side of the wall to affect them.


(I could ask players how they'd think their powers would be affected. I noticed that the bot can choose from a list, so maybe a 1/5 chance to mess up when power is at 5 then 1/4 at 6, and so on til 10, where powers are wack. Though, It would probably be a last resort in a fight to have people passed 8.)

Character Sheet

Appearance

Out of costume: Tall and intimidating are certainly the words to describe him. Often wears neck coverings, such as sweaters or scarfs. Can be caught constantly looking down and fidgeting with his hands. Fairly forgettable looking if you saw him in a crowd, if he wasn’t hiding behind something. In costume: He seems something like a white cleric with straps of cloth hanging around. The mask is made from a thin cloth. It is like an anti-version of his old costume.

Equipment and Resources

Wealth Level: 4

Has an average college job, doing custodial work for the campus.

  • Equipment Costume: New one made from newly bought fabric
  • Cell-phone: Research purposes
  • Gun: More for show than actual usage. Has some ammo. (9mm Glock 17)

Skills and Specializations

  • Obsessive knowledge on parahumans and the cape scene. Is a major in Parahumans studies Learned how to act from taking acting classes.
  • Only shows this in cape identity Good at keeping a low profile. Hides well and keeps out-of-sight.
  • Tall. His lankiness seems unsettling, probably disturbs most people in and out of costume.

Mentality

Not right. A recluse and relentless stalker. Often lost in fantasy while hiding away or watching others from afar. Not one to talk with others unless talked to, or if it's something related to his interests.

Is more charismatic, or at least louder than others, once in costume. Putting on this ‘persona’ lets him take out all the bottled emotions from his own lifestyle.

Power

Trigger type: Single Natural Trump

He’s the worst type of Trump; a power amplifier with no way to de-escalate. His power can target up to five (5) parahumans within an area equal to a football field. These capes start to have their powers grow in strength however there is a catch; the more a power gets boosted, the more likely the cape will lose control of the power. (Brutes lose their coordination and can possibly shatter what they're holding, or a Thinker would start to process too much and get a migraine more intense than they’ve had before.) He can choose when to stop boosting a power, but cannot retract the boosts. Boosted powers go onto a scale from one (1) to ten (10), after a certain point (level six (6)) their power can become unstable or unreliable which results in misfires within the power. The time it takes to go up one (1) level is one round of actions; but once a power is at level seven (7) it would take three (3) rounds to get to level eight (8) then another four (4) to reach level nine (9) and then another five rounds to reach level ten (10). [1-7: 1 round each, 7-8: 3 rounds, 8-9: 4 rounds, 9-10: 5 rounds] When a power reaches levels nine (9) or ten (10) the manton protections begin to break down. Powers will increase in strength from levels one (1) to seven (7) where one (1) is barely noticeable and seven (7) being the point of the highest benefit with the least amount of detriment comparatively. At eight (8), nine (9), and ten (10) the detriment increases exponentially until the power starts to break down. The benefits at this point are not comparable to the downside that would be suffered.

Has a minor parahuman sense; When activating the power, can feel the shard connections to chosen capes. It applies if he knows that they’re a cape. Can’t use it to find capes if he doesn’t know. When targeting capes through walls, he must know there is a cape on the other side of the wall to affect them.
