DC Comics' Golden Age hero Stripesy (Pat Dugan). But this profile focuses on his 1999-2000 appearances with the S.T.RI.P.E. power armour in the Stars and STRIPE comic book. As of June of 2021 did HD illustrations, brushed up the texts, and added Mutants & Masterminds game stats.

Thermodynamicist Pixxel

Example of an Asura engineer/scientist -- and reluctant adventurer -- in the Guild Wars II fantasy setting. Very Serious Mom with an afro, flamethrowers and some heavy metal.

alttext

Ironheart

(Riri Williams) (Bendis take (2016-2018), part 1)

Super-genius Riri Williams during her early career, as she becomes the armoured Ironheart because Tony Stark painted himself into a corner *again*. As of October of 2020, this two-parter has been reviewed, then updated to bring it to a more sensible ending point (switch to a new armour, and Eve Ewing taking over writing).

alttext

(Kaddish Yen) (Warframe)

A full-on example of a Player Character in the Warframe video game. This also explains Tenno Void abilities, a chunk of the game's backstory, the Lotus-issued spaceships (pre-Railjack), and the like.

alttext

Bird-Man

Light winged power armour and a pistol, just as real birds do. Mercenary, obscure villain. As of April of 2020, this profile was entirely rewritten.

alttext

alttext

Ape-Man

(Ani-Men)

Silver Age villainous boxer with strength-enhancing exo. Part of a handy but goofy small team of mercenaries, the Ani-Men. As of March of 2020, this small profile was entirely redone. We finally really did it ! We maniacs ! We blew it up !

alttext

(a.k.a. the Unholy Three)

A minor, odd-looking, oddly enduring team of minor Marvel malefactors.

Doomsday Man

(Part #3)

The last third for our profile of the Doomsday Man and Kerwin Korman, who form an Avengers-class Marvel Comics villain. With links to the two previous bits, of course. He's obscure, but he's powerful. And he has an interesting history that is intertwined with Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers)’s and has quite a few hooks.

alttext

Oberon-class warframe

A short-ish profile of the Oberon warframe from, well, the Warframe video game, for use in tabletop/pen-and-paper RPGs. A versatile fighter, curiously themed after a sort of magic-casting priest of earth and fire. And he looks great -half the reason we have warframe profiles is because I love how they look weird and cool.

alttext

A short-ish profile of the Titania warframe from, well, the Warframe video game, for use in tabletop/pen-and-paper RPGs. The one and only gun fairy can also deploy stranger glammer-like abilities on the battlefield.

alttext

Nyx-class warframe

A short-ish profile of the Nyx warframe from, well, the Warframe video game, for use in tabletop/pen-and-paper RPGs. Chaos, confusion, mind control, illusions... Nyx makes a mess.

alttext

Man-Killer

(Katrina van Horn) (Profile #1 - 1973-1981)

Angry misandrist with a strength-boosting exo. This profile covers her 1970s appearances, well before she received much-needed character development in Thunderbolts. Down with the chauvinistic pigs !

alttext

Turbo

(Michiko Musashi)

Turbo (Michiko "Mickey" Musashi) is likely best remembered as a 1990s New Warriors character. She operated the Torpedo suit, from an old Rom the Spaceknight supporting character, and she's not half-bad with it.

alttext

Wesley Tyler

(Shadowgrounds)

There isn't much to say about the Shadowgrounds video game protagonist, but attempting to make sense of the space background, and the space weapons and space armour, does present a certain space interest. In between shooting space aliens, of course.

alttext

Frank Horrigan of the Secret Service

The monstrous, hate-riddled super-mutant serving as the Enclave's one-man shock unit in the Fallout 2 video games. Also comes with the basics about the Enclave.

alttext

Chosen One

(Alessa-Maria Hassan) (Profile #1 - Arroyo)

Our sample Chosen One - the Player Character in the Fallout 2 video game. The deadly Alessa-Maria's mutant brain makes her a perfect predator of the post-apocalyptic wasteland. Ferociously overhauled and reillustrated in January, 2017, and M&M stats added.

alttext

Shaojie “Chilong” Zhang

The other canonical operator in the XCom - Enemy Within video game. Chinese triads badass. This profile assumes that Zhang has been turned into a cyborg (a common choice) and presents the MEC war body technology from the game.
