Avatar 5

Well, he wasn't exactly a unexceptional student. 5 Quintessence storage.

Allies 5

The five-strong team of MKKARMA are boosted operaties enhanced via gene therapy, VR training, and cutting-edge biofeedback. Although not actual Enlightened personnel, their conditioning allows them incredible innate combat and espionage capabilities, as well as the ability to pull off some effects only Enlightened personnel can normally do.

Backup 5

Every US organization and their mother has some sort of special ops team. He can call on those.

Enhancements 4

Project Silverthorn67 Treatment: Using pharmaceutical enhancement and then cutting-edge psychological conditioning, Silverthorn was the predecessor to the current NWO Delta and Gamma Projects using VR training and limited retroviral and nano-engineering to create perfect covert soldiers. Silverthorn provides its recipients with boosted mental and physical capabilities on all indices with drastic costs to the recipients' quality of life and a complete dependency on the pharmaceutical regimen.

+2 to mental attributes.

+3 to physical attributes (Physical Structure Enhancement "bioware")

"Genetic Flaws": Occasional Short-Term Memory Loss, Dietary Allergies, Insomnia, Headaches

Spies 4

He has contacts throughout the intelligence world.

Merits and Flaws

Merits

30 XP

Acute Vision (-3): Silverthorn enhancement. Improved processing of auditory and visual data. -1 difficulty to perception rolls based on sense, +1 success on 1-dot sphere effects based on the sense.

Acute Hearing (-3): Silverthorn enhancement. Improved processing of auditory and visual data. -1 difficulty to perception rolls based on sense, +1 success on 1-dot sphere effects based on the sense.

License to Kill (-15): Unaccountable American black ops agencies with broad remits are the best kinds of American black ops agencies.

Ties (-9): He has ties to all sorts of western intelligence agencies.

Flaws

30 XP

Age (-3): He's not even an Adept and already in his sixties (even if he looks to be in his forties). Too much field work and relearning paradigms, not enough study.

Apprentice (-3): A new NWO Agent. He's young, naive, idealistic, and gets into trouble.

Dark Secret (-3): Once, very long ago, there was an Akashic named Jiangxin Hua. He was a gifted student of the martial arts, but he was too attached to the world. His sifu said that attachment leads to suffering and betrayal. He was right. Unfortunately for that sifu, he was wrong about who was getting betrayed.

Enemies (-6): That sifu had another student. She's now teaching her own Akashics and really would like revenge.

Faulty Enhancements (-12): MKSILVERTHORN was 1960s stuff based on 1960s Consensus. Unlike newfangled retrovirals or nanomachines or cybernetic implants, Silverthorn requires constant pharmaceutical upkeep (Enhancements are taken offline if character misses a step in his drug regimen)

Ward (-3): His estranged family.
