SPECIAL ABILITIES

ADVANTAGES:

 

Emotion Control: Using his 'unique' glass prisms, Dr. Spectro can alter a target's emotional state and resulting activity by forcing them to feel a particular emotion. The target can only instill one emotion at a time. However, he can select any emotion he desires. This power works on anyone who's willpower is less then the rank of Doctor Spectro's prisms. A target can resist Doctor Spectro's emotion control effects by 'burning' a will power point, this will negate one attack by Doctor Spectro's emotion controlling prism. The Willpower point will be considered to be 'burned for the remainder of the storyline they are in.

Rank: 12

Distance: Line of sight

Hallucinations: Using his 'unique' glass prisms, Dr. Spectro can can create illusions directly within the target's mind. Such illusions are telepathic, not holographic, in nature. As such, they cannot be mechanically detected or recorded except by devices that simulate Telepathy or human thought patterns (such as player character Robots).

Hallucinations can only be seen by the target of this Power.

Rank: 12

Range: Line of sight (Each additional target affected lowers the attack value by 2)

Duration: Ten minutes (Each additional affected target reduces the duration by one minute)

Note: While the hallucinations can not inflict any real/physical damage, they can be used to inflict psychosomatic damage. If the apparent

damage is believable, the target will physically react to it. Hallucinatory "death" results in the target lapsing into

unconsciousness for up to 12 minutes (Targets willpower rating - Dr. Spectro's power rank)

Light Control: Using his 'unique' glass prisms, Dr. Spectro can can manipulate existing light. This can be visible, infrared, or ultraviolet light. He can alter the intensity, frequency (color, in other words), and coherence of light even.

Rank: 12

Range: Line of sight

Light Emission: Using his 'unique' glass prisms, Dr. Spectro can emit powerful bursts of light do Power rank damage at rank range. The light may be of any nature:

• Normal light in any color or intensity; the hero can light the area, dispel Shadow Powers, and temporarily blind targets.

• Coherent Light (lasers) do rank level heat damage as they burn into targets. Lasers can also be used to carry information or to create holograms.

• Optic blasts do rank level damage but rather than burn a target, they act as Kinetic Bolts.

Sleep-Induced: Using his 'unique' glass prisms, Dr. Spectro can put any target into a deep sleep, from which he cannot awake while the Power is in effect. During this induced sleep, the target is completely helpless

Rank: 12

Range: Line of sight (Each additional target affected lowers the attack value by 2)

HISTORY

According to official news reports, Doctor Spectro made his debute as a super-villian following a lab mis-hap which affected his sense of 'right' and 'wrong'. He'd invented a a series of prisms that could alter human emotions, the Doctor was then kidnapped by a gang of criminals and forced to use his inventions to assist them in committing several bank robberiesy. When the Doctor finally refused to help them any further, the criminals pushed him into his experimental machinery. The strange energies of the machine reacted with the prisms, giving the Doctor the ability to control emotions directly. The energy also affected his mind, causing the Doctor to embark on a crime spree. The superhero Captain Atom confronted Doctor Spectro, who is disintegrated when he comes in contact with a high tension wire.

And that was to be the end of Doctor Spectro, until he miraculously reappeared to do battle with Captain Atom again and again. The fact that Dr. Spectro had died, having been disintergrated caught the attention of Lois Lane who after a little investigative journalism revealed to the world that "Doctor Spectro" was actually the creation of General Wade Eiling, "Dr. Spectro" was actually a fake super villain whose exploits were used for the sole purpose of providing a cover story for the Captain Atom project. Once Captain Atom went missing, Doctor Spectro was no longer needed and Tom Emery returned to his life of a small time crook who now had some high tech gadgets.

Doctor Spectro greatest claim to fame is that the Green Arrow family often claim that he has the worst supervillain costume known to man.

Recently, Doctor Spectro died of an apparent heart attach due to over exertion during a battle with Kid Mid-nite.
