Subject: CHAR: The Great and Powerful Turtle

Designers Notes:
The Turtle is the most powerful telekineticist in the world. As Thomas Tudbury, the Turtle stands 5'9" and weighs about 170 lbs, with collar length dark brown hair. Within his 'shell' however, the Turtle become a true 'superhero', righting wrongs, saving those in distress and doing his best to combat crime. Although he's become a bit cynical over the years, the Turtle still keeps at it, doing his best to keep the streets of New York safe for everyone.

Note: Some people way want to give the Turtle some for of Variable Area of Affect advantage to the Turtle's TK. He can use his TK much like a giant pair of hands, pushing people about, picking up masses of water and so on. The 100 STR value was achieved due to the fact that the Turtle lifted the battleship New Jersey out of the water for 30 seconds one day.

Note II: Turtles Hero ID requires him to be inside of his Shell to use his powers. He can over come this psychological crutch outside of his Shell, but the Turtle is limited to about 10 STR and a x10 END cost.

Subject: CHAR: Turtle's shell

This is Turtle's shell. It is made from old battleship armor plate, layered over (at least the first time around) the body of a Volkswagen Beetle. Later models have included a reclining chair, refrigerator, external spotlights, a loudspeaker system and an on board computer. I'll leave those sorts of modifications up to individual GMs.
