Ticktock
 |
He deals in lead... Ticktock¸ the Clockwork Kid!
A Power Level 10 Rogue¸ Ticktock is a steampunk android with an itchy trigger finger. A perfect way to bring an "Old West" theme to your superhero campaign¸ Ticktock's favorite capers can be pulled right from your favorite western films! He also comes complete with a posse of robots he's roped into his gang¸ should you need a quick villain group for an episode. Ticktock the Clockwork Kid is an iconic figure in the Beacon City universe¸ but can be dropped into any campaign with very little alteration.
Ticktock is designated "Blue" for his technological origins¸ as are the members of his Robot Roundup. This can make him a great nemesis for technological superheroes¸ but he can also be an ideal villain for western-themed heroes who need someone to indulge their quick-draw skill against! Steampunk-themed heroes will appreciate his motif¸ and if you have any robotic heroes on your team¸ they may see this villain as an ancestor of sorts! His "Old West" code makes him a memorable character for any campaign¸ and his robot nature means he can return to plague your heroes again and again.
Welcome to Rogues¸ Rivals & Renegades. Each entry in the series is designed as a villain¸ a potential ally with complications¸ or an outsider who might help the PCs one day and be at odds with them another. Each character has the potential to become a mainstay of your campaign!
Rogues¸ Rivals & Renegades are presented as files from a meta-human monitoring agency called METAs¸ with a loose frame story connecting them to Vigilance Press's own Beacon City setting. They are designed to drop into any setting with minimal effort¸ however¸ and the METAs commentary is written to give you a better picture of each character's personality and threat level. Each issue gives you a background for the character¸ commentary from METAs files¸ a standee to print and play with¸ and the Hero Lab file for the character!
