Speedsters seem more prone to silly names than any other type of superhero. Even 'The Flash' can be taken as an unfortunate title.

Power Points
Abilities 50 + Powers 84 + Advantages 11 + Skills 19 (38 ranks) + Defenses 14 = 178

Background Details: So, a looooong time ago, Neil and Andy had this campaign called the Crusaders. One of the Crusaders was a super-speedster called Kaleidoscope. Now because I accept that Andy is a paranoid f*ck, I will never directly detail Andy's creations here. But, a few decades back, the "cleverly" named Hero ended up with an evil clone called "the Villain". And eventually, I had the villain unleash evil clones of all the Crusaders called "the Saracen".

Kaleidoscope's thing was a terrible multicoloured costume that would, while he ran, make a kaleidoscope effect. So, I had to come up with something MORE obnoxious for his evil clone. He became the Streak. Don't look Ethel.

Does pixilating his junk make it more obvious?
Yeah. I thought he had herpes. Or a bad reaction from dying his hair red, lol. But I do like it! I think it needs to be made to stand out, with him being evil and all.

I like your ideas and the history you give on each character! You really put time in back then and now on all of these characters. Thanks for sharing with us.

Yay! Another one! I'm actually impressed at how many of your characters tend to be foreigners, or of non-standard origin. I dig the Hourman theme/complications, as it means he has strong limits that define stories- not just little things that might come up once in a while, or things that soon become cliches (Superman & Kryptonite).
