Dominikos Petrakis

**Dominikos Ioannis Petrakis**, also known by the codename ***Avalanche***, is a Class 4 Greek mutant and a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.

## Biography

Dominikos Petrakis is an immigrant from Greece. Coming to America drastically changed his opinions on humanity, making him hate humans due to their hatred and ignorance toward mutantkind. Despite keeping his mutant powers hidden from the world as best he could, he was approached by Mystique to join the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Petrakis reluctantly agreed to join and remains in the Brotherhood to this day.

## Appearance and Personality

### Appearance

* **Height:** 5'11"
* **Weight:** 195 lbs
* **Eyes:** Brown
* **Hair:** Brown
* **Skin:** Caucasian

### Personality

Avalanche is a grungy, hot-headed, and rebellious loner. He is often irrational and driven by his temper but has managed to be more mature and pragmatic in certain situations. He is reluctant to be a villain, but he is angered by societal hatred and contempt for mutants, whether good or evil.

## Relationships

* Helen Petrakis (wife)
* Dancing Water (daughter)

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

**Vibrokinesis:** Avalanche is a mutant with the superhuman ability to generate powerful waves of vibrations from his hands, creating highly destructive effects through the air, water, or ground. The vibrations he generates can cause small inorganic objects to shatter or crumble to dust, while causing earthquake-like effects when used on the Earth or larger inorganic objects, such as buildings. Avalanche's control over his ability is so fine that he can move large objects, such as tanker trucks, without destroying them and even use his vibrations to smoothly throw his opponetns off-balance or weaken the structural integrity of buildings. Avalanche is also capable of causing tidal waves when directing his powers at large bodies of water.

Avalanche is immune to the effects of the vibratory waves that he generates, but he is not immune to the effects caused by his vibrations. So for example, he could use his powers to generate an earthquake but he would be affected by all the shaking of the earthquake and could be crushed if something fell atop of him during the tremors.

### Abilities

* **Hand-to-Hand Combat:** Avalanche is a fair hand-to-hand combatant and received training from other members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. He is also a skilled and experienced Greco-Roman wrestler.
* **Gardening:** He is a talented gardener.

* **Weight:** 115 lbs
* **Eyes:** Green

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

**Precognition:** Tarot is able to foresee events of her own or others' futures due to a combination of her mutant powers and the use of her tarot cards. While using her tarot cards, she is only able to give rough ideas of what types of events will happen in an individual's future; she is incapable of being too specific. She has also demonstrated being able to use her tarot cards to see events of the past.

**Power Drawing:** Tarot can physically assume the strengths and characteristics of the avatars on her tarot cards. This allows her to become more effective in physical combat despite having little experience. Additionally, she can wield the weapons and armor that her tarot cards are equipped with. Each skill she gains is dependent on the card she is using at the time. She is limited in that she can only channel one card at a time. By channeling power from her cards, she has gained the ability to fly, superhuman strength and stamina, ability to create fire, and the ability to cause death with a touch.

Regan Wyngarde

**Regan Wyngarde**, also known by the codename ***Lady Mastermind***, is a Class 3 American mutant who is a member of the Sisterhood of Mutants and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.

## Biography

Regan Wyngarde is one of the three daughters of one of the original members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Jason Wyngarde. For reasons unknown, Regan has an intense hatred for her half-sister Martinique. Although much of Regan's history is unknown, it is presumed that she was raised by her father as she has been a loyal member of the Brotherhood since her mutant powers manifested.

### Appearance

* **Height:** 5'9"
* **Weight:** 133 lbs
* **Eyes:** Blue

* **Skin:** Caucasian
* **Other Features:** Slim

### Personality

## Relationships

* Jason Wyngarde (father)
* Martinique Wyngarde (paternal half-sister)
* Megan Gwynn (paternal half-sister)

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

**Illusion Manipulation:** Lady Mastermind possesses the mutant power to project extremely convincing and realistic illusions into the minds of others, a stronger variation of the same ability that her father has. Lady Mastermind's illusions are hypnotic, and her victims tend to accept them as fact, even when the images and scenarios they are confronted with involve sudden changes to the world around them or are inconsistent or improbable. As such, her illusions can be used as a very effective brainwashing tool. In addition, unlike her father, both Lady Mastermind and her half-sister have limited telepathic abilities that enable them to read their foes' minds and make their illusions all the more accurate for it.

Lady Mastermind's illusions are also capable of killing or harming others, as her victims' bodies respond as if her illusions are real. She once confronted a man with the illusion that he was drowning, and believing it to be real, he suffocated despite having no physical injuries and being in a room with sufficient oxygen. Lifeguard's body also responded in a similar way, bleeding through the pores in her back when she was under the illusion that she had been stabbed.

**Familial Power Immunity:** Lady Mastermind is unaffected by the illusions of her father and sister, Mastermind and Mistress Mastermind, as well as the hallucinogenic pixie dust of her sister Pixie.

### Abilities

* **Seduction:** Lady Mastermind is an expert seductress and can easily convince men, and some women, to obey her every command.
* **Manipulation:**She is also a highly skilled manipulator, even without using her sex appeal or seductive skills.

Atlas Decision

In 2047, a NeoLuddite terrorist organization attacked a series of nuclear reactors across the world, with disastrous consequences. Several of the reactors were protected by security forces belonging to the Atlas Corporation, and the company was held responsible for the disaster by the public at large.

Jonathan Irons went before the United Nations to argue that, had Atlas been allowed to properly defend their clients, the attacks - and the thousands of deaths that they caused - could have been prevented, if it weren't for the vast amount of bureaucratic red tape Atlas had to contend with in order to perform their duties. He demanded that, if private corporations were expected to defend territory as though they were sovereign states, they should be allowed the same rights and privileges as sovereign states. After a long and heated debate, the Atlas Corporation was granted extraterritorial rights in what would become known as the Atlas Decision.

The Atlas Decision outlined a list of requirements that a particular corporation must meet in order to qualify for extraterritoriality. Should a corporation meet all of these requirements, they may apply for extraterritorial rights with the United Nations. If these rights are granted, the corporation's rating is upgraded to AA and its rights to extraterritoriality are acknowledged by all members of the United Nations.
Adrienne Frost

**Adrienne Frost**, previously known by the codename ***White Queen***, was a Class 3 American mutant who was the White Queen of the Hellfire Club.

## Biography

Adrienne Frost is the second child of Winston and Hazel Frost, wealthy individuals who inherited most of their money from their own wealthy parents and grandparents. Not much else of Adrienne's early life is known. It is known, however, that she murdered her own husband after he had crossed her.

Adrienne ran her own company, Meridian Enterprises, and hadn't spoken to her sister Emma for years. When Frost Industries took a major hit in the stock market, Emma was forced to turn to Adrienne for financial backing. Adrienne agreed but only on the condition that Emma agree to allow Adrienne to become the next White Queen. Emma reluctantly agreed, and Frost Industries was saved.

When Adrienne officially became the White Queen of the Hellfire Club, she began making changes to the club that angered many of the members, some of whom ended up leaving. For the best of the Hellfire Club, Emma ended up killing her sister.

EL APRENDIZAJE DIALÓGICO EN LA SOCIEDAD DE LA INFORMACIÓN

==== Dimensión
Instrumental ====
Bajo las teorías
del déficit, durante mucho tiempo se han potenciado prácticas en los centros
escolares que, en lugar de ofrecer el currículum instrumental establecido, han
optado por ofrecer “un currículum de la felicidad” a niños y niñas con
carencias y problemáticas sociales. Por encontrarse en una situación de
exclusión social, hemos oído discursos como, por ejemplo, *es que estos*
niños y niñas necesitan primero aprender hábitos de higiene*,*necesitan
primero cubrir sus necesidades básicas, necesitan afecto*o*necesitan
mejorar el comportamiento y después ya nos ocuparemos de las matemáticas*.*
Ante esta situación la escuela se ha dedicado a trabajar estas dimensiones
dejando de lado la dimensión instrumental. De esta forma, en lugar de dar más a
quienes más lo necesitaban, y ofrecer una educación posibilitadora de
oportunidades, se ha tendido a dar menos a los que más lo necesitan, mermando
las posibilidades de acceso igualitario a la educación.

Desde el
aprendizaje dialógico se supera la oposición entre la dimensión humanista y la
dimensión instrumental de la educación potenciando un currículum de la
competencia y del esfuerzo, poniendo todos los mecanismos necesarios para que
llegue al alumnado que más lo necesita.

En las
Comunidades de Aprendizaje este principio se traduce en potenciar que en todos
los espacios se ofrezca aprendizaje instrumental, y trabajar conjuntamente bajo
el lema: *que el aprendizaje que queremos para nuestras hijas e hijos*
esté al alcance de todas las niñas y niños.  *Se trata por lo tanto de*
potenciar, desde la educación infantil y a lo largo de todos los niveles
educativos, el máximo en lectura, en matemáticas, idiomas, historia, ciencia…
no aceptar como inevitables los malos resultados, no confundir el trabajo en
valores y solidaridad con la renuncia o el desprecio al aprendizaje
instrumental y a los resultados académicos, sino ofrecer la excelencia a todos
y todas.
Executive Decision ED-9

Executive Decision's **ED-9**is a small, easily concealed pistol designed as last-line protection for corporate executives. While designed more for comfort and ease of use rather than performance, the ED-9 is a solid, reliable backup weapon.

As a holdout weapon, characters attempting to find the ED-9 in a physical search suffer a -2 penalty to the Notice roll.

**Standard Modifications:**None.
MAO L-CAR 9

The **L-CAR 9** is a super-compact machine pistol designed as a lightweight personal defense weapon by Czech arms manufacturer Military Arms of Ostrava . While never intended to be used extensively in combat, the L-CAR 9 offers acceptable performance and stopping power at close range, making it a favorite backup weapon for military and police forces requiring more firepower than a conventional semi-automatic pistol.

The L-CAR 9's size, portability, and ease of concealment have made it popular with gunfighters all across the spectrum; from military vehicle crews to private security groups to special forces units.

The L-CAR 9 has become infamous for its extremely low audible signature when used with a suppressor. When fired with a suppressor attached, Notice rolls to hear the shot are made at an additional -2; the Notice roll to hear a shot within 5" is made at -2, -4 for those beyond 5", and -6 at beyond 10".

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top, Left Side, Right Side).
Atlas HBRa3

The **Atlas HBRa3** is an automatic battle rifle chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO. It has the distinction of serving as the standard-issue combat rifle of the United States Marine Corps, and is popular with special forces and corporate security units that need heavier stopping-power when combatting drones and augmented humans.
Stasiuk Arms Huntsman Silverback

The **Huntsman Silverback** is a double-barrel shotgun with break-action loading, manufactured by Stasiuk Arms Inc. It is a classic design, and features old-world craftsmanship and fine engraving work. Intended for sport hunting by wealthy gentlemen, its pair of 12-gauge barrels still make the Silverback an effective combat weapon.

**Standard Modifications:** None.
Dahl Dingo

The **Dahl Dingo**is a light machine gun with a unique design showcasing several highly unusual features. Chambered in the necked 5.49x39mm round, the Dingo is defined by its twin barrels, which allow the weapon to fire at higher rates than others in its class, and draws from a high-capacity helical magazine, rather than utilizing a disintegrating link feed system or bulky drum magazine.
Saxe-Deimling UMK Mk IV

The **UMK Mk IV** by Saxe-Deimling is a .45 caliber submachine gun reminiscent of the IMI Uzi. It features a high-capacity magazine and a well-balanced heft, allowing it to be held in one hand much like a machine pistol. Additionally, it comes from the factory pre-threaded for attaching a suppressor, and though the suppressor itself is not included in the purchase price, one can be ordered from Saxe-Deimling that was specifically designed for the UMK Mk IV.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top), Folding Stock.
Atlas Bal-27

The **Atlas Bal-27** is a bullpup assault rifle chambered in 5.56mm NATO, designed and used primarily by the Atlas Corporation. Originally designed for use by Atlas Corporation Agents, the Bal-27 features multiple accessory rails to allow for quick and easy customization in the field, allowing the user to alter the weapon to their mission on the fly.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top, Under, Left Side, Right Side)
KN-44

The KN-44 is the most successful product of corporate espionage on record, as its blueprints were stolen from the original Russian designer in 2036 and have since spread around the world. The KN-44 is fast and easy to produce, making it ubiquitous amongst forces worldwide with a need to quickly arm large numbers of riflemen.

The KN weapon design affords production plants their choice of quality of parts, meaning that even though all KN-44 parts are interchangeable, there is no guarantee any two KN-44 rifles around the world will perform the same. Since there is no standard, the designation "KN-44" is typically given to any rifle of military issue fitting the KN pattern. The KN-44 is highly customizable, and its standard pattern offers a good balance of stopping power, performance at range, and rate of fire. A properly built KN-44 with the right modifications can easily meet the performance demands of the modern infantryman.

**Standard Modifications:**None.
Steiner-Bisley FR-27

The FR-27 SFR (Sanction Flechette Rifle) is a modern fully automatic combat rifle developed by Steiner-Bisley GmbH. Instead of firing bullets, the FR-27 SFR fires .303 caliber fin-stabilized discarding sabot flechettes, which are manufactured by Osprey Ltd. The flechettes that it uses are faster (being lighter) and more powerful than conventional bullets (as they fracture into shards upon impact), and are fin-stabilized and fired by a smoothbore barrel. This power comes with a cost though, as only 20 rounds can be held in a single magazine.

The reloading procedure is unusual; the entire forward section of the rifle hinges near the muzzle to expose an internal loading port, into which the magazine is inserted with the rounds pointing downward. Following loading, the rifle is closed up and the cocking handle on the left side is rotated clockwise.

**Standard Modifications:**Accessory Rail (Top, Left Side, Right Side).
EuroCorp

**EuroCorp** was formed in 2017 through the merger of Kader Industrieen and Euroline Medical, and quickly became a megacorporate entity, gaining AAA status extraterritoriality immediately after the Atlas Decision.

EuroCorp is highly diversified, with divisions dedicated to medical and scientific research, weapons and technology development, and private security, among many others.
Jonathan Irons

**Jonathan Irons** is the founder and CEO of the Atlas Corporation.

## Early Life

Jonathan Irons was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado in 1996 to parents Robert and Anna Irons. He attended the United States Military Academy at West Point beginning in 2015, and served as an officer in the United States Army for eighteen years.

## Atlas Corporation

Irons service in the Army taught him to appreciate the value of a soldier that is a well-trained, reliable, and highly-motivated professional. However, he came to believe that the bureaucratic inefficiency of the military command structure and the government that backed it hamstrung even the most dedicated fighting force. Believing that he could do better, Irons founded the Atlas Corporation in 2035, utilizing his connections within the United States military and other powerful organizations to do so.

In the four decades since, Irons has led the Atlas Corporation to become the largest private military company in the world, and his leadership and drive led to Atlas becoming the first internationally-recognized extraterritorial megacorporation.

## Personal Life

Jonathan Irons' family life has been marked by tragedy, which some have suggested has led to many of the policy decisions he has enacted within Atlas.

Irons married Julia Randall in June of 2032, shortly before his retirement from the United States Army. Their son, William Robert Irons, was born the following May.

Julia Irons was diagnosed with a rare form of lung cancer in 2045, and passed away in November of that year. Following her death, Jonathan Irons dedicated the Atlas headquarters building in Denver, Colorado to her memory, and shifted a great deal of Atlas's investment portfolio into medical research.

William Irons joined the United States Marine Corps in January of 2054. The following July saw Private Irons' first combat deployment, part of a joint effort between the South Korean military and the United States Marine Corps to repel a North Korean invasion of Seoul. Private Irons was critically wounded during the battle, and succumbed to his injuries three days later in a U.S. military hospital.

Since the deaths of his wife and only child, Irons is not known to have been involved in any romantic relationships, and seems to be wholly dedicated to his work leading the Atlas Corporation.
Raven M1 Raider

Designed as a spiritual successor to the M1 Garand, Raven Industries' **M1 Raider** maintains quite a few similarities to the original, including the characteristic eight-round stripper clip and the automatic ejector, though most clips are made of a polymer material to prevent the infamous "ping" of the classic rifle.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top).
Raven Ares

The **Raven Ares** is a general purpose machine gun in service with military units around the world. Chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO and intended as a squad fire support weapon, the Ares includes many design features that allow it to be carried and operated by a single soldier.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top, Left Side, Right Side), Bipod.
Dahl

**Dahl**, founded by Stanton Dahl in 2041,is a megacorporation focusing in mining and weapons manufacturing.

Dahl began as a mining conglomerate, and diversified into a number of fields in an attempt to create complete vertical integration. The machinery and equipment found in a Dahl-owned mining operation was designed by Dahl, manufactured by Dahl using resources harvested by Dahl and refined in Dahl-operated refineries, and the operation is protected by Dahl security forces wielding Dahl-manufactured weapons.

Though Dahl's executives, office workers, and security specialists are all hired and trained by the corporation, it prefers to use convicts as unskilled labor in its mines, meaning that often times Dahl security forces are more concerned with the actions of their labor force than any external threats.
Dahl Bulldog

Dahl's **Bulldog** is a fully-automatic assault shotgun developed for military and corporate security usage. While its weight and barrel-climb when fired on full-automatic make it difficult to control, it is popular among augmented soldiers that can appropriately compensate for its recoil.

When fired on full-auto, the Dahl Bulldog is treated as having a Minimum Strength of d8.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top).
General Equipment

Guns, ammo, blades, and armor are the bread and butter of a runner, but those things will only get you so far. Your commlink, car, or tool set can be just as important as that tricked out Diamond Back.

Steiner-Bisley Longsword II

The **Longsword II ERASR (Extreme Range Sniper Rifle)** is a modern semi-automatic sniper rifle produced by Steiner-Bisley GmbH. The rifle is designed to utilize Synergie long range match grade ammunition, which is inserted into an unusual side-loading magazine mechanism.

**Standard Modifications:**Imaging Scope (Top), Accessory Rail (Top).
Page Industries

**Page Industries**, often abbreviated as **PI**, is a large multinational conglomerate involved in several industries. These include robotics, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and construction. It is also involved in the manufacturing of domestic appliances and industrial devices, as well as computer hardware and software development.

One of its most significant subsidiaries is the VersaLife Corporation, which is a world leader in pharmaceutics, bioengineering, and nanotechnology.
Executive Decision VMP

Originally intended as a personal defense weapon for police and security forces, Executive Decision's **VMP** has been adopted for military use around the world for its light carry weight and high stopping power.

Not originally intended for sustained gunfights, the VMP trades magazine capacity for a higher powered round and overall weight reduction. Combined with the weapon's high rate of fire, this can make the VMP difficult to control during continuous fire. While many shooters berate this design as a mistake, many more have learned to adapt their shooting style and have come to rely on the VMP's ability to quickly deliver a volume of high-powered rounds.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top, Left Side, Right Side).
Takashi Defense Systems

**Takashi Defense Systems** is a weapon manufacturer and propulsion researcher based in Tokyo, Japan.

Takashi has been at the center of a conflict between Aspari and Tao for three decades. Originally a family-owned business reaching back six generations, Takashi was integrated into the Aspari family in 2035. It remained part of Aspari until Tao's hostile takeover of the Shanghai stock exchange in 2042, wherein Tao secretly invested in the top ten Aspari companies in the region, gaining majority rule and laying claim to 73% of the consumer market, with Takashi Defense Systems as the crown jewel of the takeover.

Takashi is best known for designing the ubiquitous APP-3 pistol and the Kusanagi ACR-10 assault rifle.

## Takashi Products

APP-3 (.45 ACP pistol, design only)

Kusanagi ACR-10 (7.62mm NATO assault rifle)

Kusanagi HSR-6 (7.8mm sniper rifle)
Takashi BlackCell

The **Takashi Defense Systems BlackCell** is a 70mm radar-guided anti-aircraft missile launcher. It is semi-automatic, carrying a magazine of 4 smart-missiles that require a target lock to be fired.

To fire the BlackCell, the user must lock onto the target by making an Electronics roll opposed by the target's maneuvering skill (Boating, Driving, or Piloting, as appropriate). Success gives the attacker a "short" lock and allows them to fire up to 2 missiles. A raise results in a more solid lock, allowing the attacker to fire the BlackCell's entire 4-missile magazine.

The target attempts to evade each missile separately by making a maneuvering roll at -4 (-2 if the target has substantial cover to hide behind). A Critical Failure means the craft goes Out of Control (SWAde 119).
FN BRM

The **FN** **BRM**is a light machine gun chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, intended as a squad-support weapon carried and operated by a single soldier.

The BRM takes its cues from FN's century-old M249 SAW, though the use of advanced alloys allows the BRM to be considerably lighter than its ancestor.

**Standard Modifications:** Accessory Rail (Top, Under), Folding Stock
Stasiuk Arms TMP-18

The **TMP-18 (Tactical Machine Pistol 18)** is a fully-automatic machine pistol made by Stasiuk Arms Inc. It possesses standard iron sights, a retractable stock and a vertical foregrip that curves outwards, and is easily modified to accept a suppressor. It is especially popular with special operations teams and vehicle crews, as its small size makes it easy to conceal or stow, without sacrificing firepower.

**Standard Modifications:** Folding Stock.
Raven M2

The **Raven M2** is a 9x19mm service pistol designed and manufactured by Raven Industries. It was designed specifically for hostile climates, with a fully sealed mechanism to prevent jams and mechanical breakdown due to grit, grime, and sand fouling the action. In evaluations that tested it against its competitors in unfavorable conditions, the M2 performed consistently across all trials, where other weapons suffered decreases in accuracy and rate of fire, and even suffered complete breakdown.

**Standard Modifications:** None.
Colt Patrolman

The **Colt Patrolman** is a popular line of service revolvers popular with police officers on low-risk beats and with detectives wanting something they can comfortable wear in a shoulder holster all day. It is light, comfortable to wear, and has an attractive profile with comfortable ergonomics, but its low ammunition capacity makes it unsuitable for more dangerous areas.

**Standard Modifications:** None.

Colt's earliest designs played a major role in the popularization of the revolver and the shift away from earlier single-shot pistols. Although Samuel Colt did not invent the revolver concept, his designs resulted in the first very successful ones.

Colt was acquired by Militech in the early 2020s, making it one of the corporation's earliest and most prolific brands.

### CyberInk

This is a programmable, light-emitting mesh inserted beneath the first couple layers of skin that functions as a cybernetic tattoo. CyberInk can be programmed to display a static image, a short animation, or a repeating pattern. The tattoo is altered through the recipient's DNI, if they have one, or by wireless connection.

### Skinwatch

This digital timepiece, implanted just below the epidermis, uses technology similar to cyberink to project a readout of the time onto the skin. Skinwatches can be implanted anywhere, although the hand, wrist, and fingers are the most common.

### Synthskin

A much more sophisticated version of cyberink, synthskin is a layer of color-shifting plastic bonded to the character's skin. It can be adjusted to display colors, patterns, light flares, or other special effects. Like with cyberink, synthskin is altered either through the recipient's DNI or via wireless connection. Tuning chips, pre-programmed with particular settings, can be purchased for around 100 credits.

### TechHair

These shafts of artificial hair can be programmed to shift color, stand on end, or emitting colored light, either static or in moving patterns. Techhair can be programmed to respond to changes in temperature, ambient conditions, or, if the recipient has a DNI and biomonitor, changes in the recipient's emotional state, heart rate, blood pressure, or other variables.

Techhair can be implanted in mohawks, hair weaves, full hairpieces, manes, ruffs, whiskers, bears, and other, less-obvious (but interesting) places.
