Zarathustra
 |
The master manipulator¸ always in the shadows… Zarathustra!
A Power Level 10 Rogue¸ Zarathustra is the perfect sociopath. Zarathustra is an iconic character in the Beacon City universe¸ but can be dropped into any campaign with very little alteration.
Zarathustra's file is designated "Orange" to identify his focus on skills and techniques bordering on the paranormal. More than anything else he employs¸ Zarathustra's intelligence and complete lack of conscience make him a formidable adversary for a hero or team of heroes that catch his attention. He is bored of mundane challenges¸ only a truly brilliant foe will catch his interest¸ but he plays the long game and never reveals himself until he is sure of victory. The perfect Moriarty for your campaign's Sherlock Holmes¸ he makes a very memorable mastermind indeed.
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 Hero Lab files for key characters!
