Hi all, I completely misread the Character Challenge (I'm not sure what I was thinking) but I was so pleased with the character, I just had to share. It's classic corny late '70s early '80s style.

I did it completely randomly 4d6 best three in a row for stats, and even randomized which table for powers. The only thing I chose was which power to drop (otherwise I should have just rolled one less for the powers.)

Feel free to use the approach to make a completely random character and post away!

Obviously, per other discussions on this board and others, you post it, it's your character.

Background:
Dr. Lagen Orhynchus is a chief scientist in the Covert Engineering & Technology division (CET) of the Atlantean Counter Espionage Agency (ACEA). His primary function is to develop new tools for the agency to use in their work. Every once in a while he develops an outlandish but somewhat unreliable device. In these cases, Dr. Orhynchus seldom feels comfortable releasing them to the agency at large.

Lagen is a bit of a maverick, however, and sometimes volunteers for special or dangerous missions for CETACEA, concealing his identity and operating under the codename Stingray. He usually takes his special devices with him, disguised as simple medallions of the specific animal.
Other than his psionic device, which is reliable but requires a superhuman intelligence of 25 or greater to use, the devices Stingray carries occasionally require more effort to make them work. Each time one of the devices is used, roll a d20. On a 1, the device is acting up and Dr. Orynchus must spend 1d6 Power Points to correct it or the device doesn’t work (no power points are spent if it doesn’t.)
How he was rolled up: 4d6, with the lowest die dropped, rolled 5 times.
