Wolverine

Wolverine

These stats would reflect the mutant hero Wolverine as he was depicted during the days of Jim Lee’s run on X-Men (second series). The character has been converted through a blend of Heroes Unlimited 2nd Edition, Ninjas & Superspies, and Rifts World Book 8: Japan. Hopefully this will present a more or less truthful representation of Logan for use in Heroes Unlimited.

Disposition: The man known as Logan is an enigma, his past somewhat of a mystery even to him. He is both hero and outlaw; a man with the honor of a samurai who struggles to control the beast within. Wolverine is many things to many people. To those he calls friend, he is loyal to the end. To his enemies, he is a nightmare come to life. Wolverine holds a high regard for life, but does not hesitate to kill if necessary. In many ways, he is a walking paradox. Once quick-tempered and quick to lash out, he has changed, becoming more level-headed and in control of himself and his abilities. He has served time as the team’s leader, with his vast experiences and seemingly unparalleled combat skills carrying the X-Men when his fellow mutants were unable to continue. Wolverine, quite simply, kicks ass. He is most comfortable as a loner, as he spent most of his life (or at least what we know of it), but has proven himself to be capable of working within the framework of a team. Brimming with confidence, he dislikes authority and hates being told what to do, both were reasons he initially left the Canadian government’s Department H to join the X-Men, but will stick up for his teammates and friends until his dying breath. Logan drinks heavily and smokes like a chimney, allowed by his incredibly powerful healing factor’s compensation. He views Shadowcat and Jubilee like his own children, and would do anything to help either of them.

Super Power Category: Mutant/Experiment
Super Abilities:
  • Adamantium Skeleton: Wolverine’s skeleton has been bonded with True Adamantium making it virtually indestructible (2000 MDC). The skeleton provides Logan with a natural AR of 10, as well, as conventional attacks cannot penetrate the skeleton and therefore lessening potential damage to his body.
  • Claws: Wolverine’s claws are made of the same Adamantium as his skeleton, making them unbreakable and allowing him to slice through nearly any substance on earth. In game terms, I would rule that Wolverine’s Adamantium claws ignore AR when dealing with artificial armor, as they slice through it like butter and seemingly always go through to the target. Damage is 3d8 SDC, plus damage bonuses.
  • Healing Factor: Wolverine’s Healing Factor increases with the amount of adrenaline that is pumped into his bloodstream. At a normal rest, he heals roughly five times faster than a normal human, but during periods of berserker rage (Frenzy) his healing factor goes through the roof, enabling him to withstand much greater damage and heal at a far greater rate. In the midst of a frenzy, Wolverine’s Healing Factor allows him to regenerate 1d4x10 SDC per minute (four melee rounds). There is no scarring when he heals. He also ages far more slowly than normal humans, only one year of aging for every five to ten years alive.
  • Heightened Sense of Smell: Wolverine can track by scent (98%) and recognize people by scent (98%). He also has the ability to smell people coming from roughly 100 feet away. He can recognize comon scents (98%) and toxins or poisons (98%)
  • Heightened Sense of Hearing: Logan’s hearing is far more sensitive than a normal human’s hearing. His hearing is as sensitive as most animals, and allows him to hear opponents coming and helps him keep from being the victim of sneak-attacks.
  • Martial Arts Powers: The following have been demonstrated on several occasions
    • Art of Stealth:98%; so long as Wolverine is in the dark and is unsuspected, no roll is needed. Includes Jung Hua, the Art of Melting into the Water (90%)
    • Art of Mystic Invisibility:70% Wolverine demonstrated this ability during a training exercise with the X-Man Nightcrawler. Costs one Chi point per round.

Drawbacks: Frenzy - Wolverine suffers from the Frenzy condition, with all four listed stimulus as triggers for his berserker rage. At that point everything goes red and he simply starts killing. Gains one additional attack per round, and adds 1d6 to all damage rolls. Also gain a +1 to strike, parry, dodge, and roll. Pulling punches is not possible. During the rage he can only use Ninjutsu, but not the Arts of Stealth or Mystic Invisibility. The rigid discipline of his samurai skills are ignored during the frenzy, thus disallowing those skills’ use.
Unusual Physical Characteristics: Hair covers entire body
Education Level: Military Specialist
