Challenges Personal: Illiterate Orphan Weakness: Poorly understood alien power source

Bio: Vas grew up as an orphan in a war-torn country. Poorly fed, and without hope, he was like hundreds of other children devastated by years of war. That was until General Vassily Medvediv visited his orphanage and told him that he was "just the sort of soldier he was looking for."

He had been selected for a special project. The General, fighting for years for his country's independence had found a remarkable Armored Suit buried in the hinterlands. Whoever the alien was who had once controlled it was long since dead. But the controls and cockpit were designed for someone of small stature and slight limbs. A malnourished teenager would be a perfect fit.

Vas threw himself into his training. Finally, he wasn't like every other orphan. In the Armor, that he called "Long-Stride", he was a hero. But before the suit could be unleashed on the battlefield, all it secrets would have to be known. The General came up with a brilliant plan. Vas would go and become a Super Hero in another country. He would learn to master the Armor, and in the process become adored in the eyes of people everywhere. Only then would he bring the Long-Stride back to the rebellion.

Game Notes: Vas has no powers aside from the Long-Stride. Because of the suit's strange cosmic power source, it can manifest a wide variety of power stunts. Life-support is an obvious one. And Ability Boost could be used to push Long-Stride's Strength to 10!

Role-Playing Notes: Vas can be a brooding child soldier type. But he also is beginning to enjoy his new found freedom. He may begin to look up to one of the other heroes as a new Mentor. He can go from being full of grim purpose one minute, to light-hearted teenage antics the next.
