DC Comics' SNOWFLAME (STEFAN)

 SNOWFLAME (STEFAN)

DEX: 6 STR: 9 BODY: 7
INT: 4 WILL: 4 MIND: 4
INFL: 6 AURA: 4 SPIRIT: 3
INITIATIVE: 16 HERO POINTS: 30

Powers:

• Super Strength (Cocaine-Fueled): 9
  • Snowflame’s strength increases dramatically when he ingests cocaine, reaching superhuman levels.
• Fire Control (Cocaine-Fueled): 8
  • He can cover himself in white flames that do not burn him but can damage others.
• Blast Power: 7
  • Snowflame can channel his fire into powerful blasts of energy, incinerating enemies at a distance.
• Super Speed: 6
  • His reflexes and movement speed increase when using cocaine, making him much faster in combat.
• Stamina (Cocaine-Fueled): 9
  • Cocaine gives him near-limitless endurance and allows him to fight for extended periods without tiring.
• Adaptive (Combat-Enhanced): 7
  • The more Snowflame fights, the stronger and more effective he becomes in battle.

Skills:

• Tactics (Street-Level Crime): 6
• Leadership (Cartel Operations): 6
• Hand-to-Hand Combat: 7
• Intimidation: 8
• Streetwise (Drug Trade): 7

Advantages:

• Fearless: Snowflame’s extreme confidence, fueled by cocaine, makes him reckless but also immune to fear.
• Drug Empowerment: His powers are entirely fueled by cocaine, making him extremely dangerous while under its influence.
• Psychological Manipulation: His erratic behavior and aura of insanity often unnerves his opponents, giving him a psychological edge.

Drawbacks:

• Cocaine Dependence: Snowflame is entirely dependent on cocaine to access his powers. Without it, he loses his superhuman abilities and becomes vulnerable.
• Unstable: Prolonged use of cocaine has damaged his mind, making his actions unpredictable and irrational.
• Reckless: His overconfidence leads him into situations where he underestimates his enemies, relying too heavily on his powers.

Equipment:

• Cocaine Supply: Snowflame always carries a supply of cocaine, often using it mid-fight to enhance his powers.

Wealth: 7

Background:

Snowflame is a drug lord with a deadly and unique power: his strength and abilities increase whenever he ingests cocaine. He first appeared in New Guardians #2 (1988), where he led a drug cartel and used his cocaine-fueled powers to battle the New Guardians. After initially defeating the team, he was presumed dead after being thrown into an exploding shed by his own men. Snowflame's flamboyant and dangerous personality was driven by his addiction, making him unpredictable and highly volatile in combat.

Snowflame’s powers appear to be directly linked to cocaine use, as he becomes significantly stronger, faster, and more resistant to damage when under the influence of the drug. He can also engulf himself in white flames, which he can control to burn his enemies or launch as fire blasts. Despite his formidable powers, Snowflame's reliance on cocaine makes him vulnerable when deprived of his drug, and his mental instability often leads to reckless decisions.

CW's The Count (Cecil Adams)

 

 

The Count (Cecil Adams)

DEX: 4 STR: 3 BODY: 3
INT: 6 WILL: 5 MIND: 5
INFL: 6 AURA: 4 SPIRIT: 3
INITIATIVE: 16 HERO POINTS: 30

Skills:

• Toxicology (Drug Creation): 9
• Medicine (Pharmaceuticals): 7
• Stealth: 6
• Persuasion (Intimidation): 7
• Thief (Deception): 5
• Streetwise: 7

Advantages:

• Inventor of Vertigo: His creation of the drug gives him a large network and influence over Starling City's underworld.
• Drug Immunity: Due to prolonged exposure, The Count is immune to the effects of Vertigo, allowing him to manipulate and control his victims without suffering the same consequences.
• Intelligent Manipulator: His high intelligence allows him to outwit those around him, using Vertigo and his understanding of human weakness to gain control.

Drawbacks:

• Psychological Instability: After being injected with a lethal dose of his own drug by the Hood, Cecil was left with severe mental damage, bordering on madness.
• Obsessed with Vertigo: His obsession with his drug leads to reckless behavior, as he continues to experiment and push the limits of its effects.
• Ruthless: He has no qualms about killing innocent people to test or distribute Vertigo, often torturing them for his own amusement.

Equipment:

• Double-Needle Syringe:
  • [BODY: 2, EV: 4, Range: 1]
  • His signature weapon, used to inject victims with experimental doses of Vertigo.
• Vertigo Pills:
  • [BODY: 3, Effect: Confusion (8), Hallucination (7)]
  • The drug's effects cause disorientation, confusion, and in some cases, psychosis.

Wealth: 5

Background:

Cecil Adams, known as "The Count," rose to power in Starling City's criminal underworld through his sadistic use of Vertigo, a drug he personally designed. His willingness to experiment on the vulnerable—prostitutes, vagrants, and others on the margins—earned him a fearsome reputation. The drug's effects left a trail of destruction in its wake, as users suffered hallucinations and confusion, often leading to their deaths. His experiments earned him the nickname "The Count," a reference to Dracula due to the double puncture marks on his victims' necks.

In Season 1 of Arrow, The Count becomes a personal enemy of Oliver Queen (The Hood) after his sister, Thea, nearly dies from Vertigo. Despite being injected with a potentially fatal dose of his own drug, The Count survives, though it leaves him mentally unstable. Even after his initial defeat, Vertigo continues to plague Starling City, thanks to Dr. Webb, who frames The Count while upgrading the drug formula. The Count’s lingering influence and personal vendetta against the Hood make him one of the few villains to return.

Designer Notes: I based this write up of how he is on theCW Show, I dropped a few of his stats from the real Arsenal, and dropped a lot of background which didn't fit due to the current story line on Arrow. While he wasn't the "Red Arrow" it was joked about among the characters. I may revisit him for a write up of when he was on Mirakuru and give him the superhuman stats and abilities.

Designer Notes: I adjusted a few things here and there, such as dropping his intelligence, due to the way he reacts to things on the show and leans heavily on his support staff. Not saying he's not a brilliant mind, but after looking at the chart in the 3e core book, I felt the number better reflected the TV Personae. I also adjusted his wealth to that of a Billionaire and dropped the whole floral artist thing, that didn't fit with the show. Also, I know he hasn't used all the "trick arrows" listed here, but we'd assume he'd have them, as he's shown that he uses these things from time to time. Finally, I noticed he doesn't have a gadgetry stat, so I added him one based on what I thought he would have to fix the arrows he uses and invent the new ones.

Designer Notes: I based this write up of how she is on theCW Show. This is basically a write up of Red Arrow/Arsenal, but with a Thea twist. It wasn't easy to build her, because I had to guess at things based on what she has done, and the fact she came back from the Lazarus Pit. Equipment, I kept exact the same as Roy's for Arsenal, because, well, it was the same stuff, they both seemed to use it and leave it in the "Arrow lair". Most of her skills come from the training she had with Malcolm Merlyn, which wasn't a very long period of time, but long enough that she got the basics down and was able to show this in while fighting.

Designer Notes: So there was no actual write up for this character anywhere for me to compare after designing him up to see if I came close. This character was a creation of the TV show that did make his way into the comics, first appearance being Green Arrow Vol 5 #24 (December, 2013). His stats are pretty much a normal human with slight modifications taken into account for his military background, and the fact he does hold his own when fighting next to Oliver (well sometimes). His drawbacks are based on his character development through out the life span of the show.

Designer Notes: This character is much different then the one that DC cartoons and comics show. His real name was changed, and his backstory was modified for the show. Since that was modified, I decided his stats would be different as well. I will agree he has a brilliant mind, but he's not as physical and strong as cartoon/comics.
