Scene 2
Cryopede
Minion (1 per 2 Heroes)
Description
A two-foot-long centipede-like creature made of
ice, the Cryopede spits liquid helium at its prey.
Ability
Liquid Helium: +1 to Hinder actions.
Tactics
Cryopedes focus on hindering as many opponents
as possible. Once a hero has one penalty from
a Cryopede, that hero becomes a much lower
priority target.
Giant Angry Shaggy Thing
Minion (1 per 2 Heroes)
Description
The Giant Angry Shaggy Thing is exactly what you
think: a vaguely humanoid ten foot blob made
of long, matted strands of hair and fur that is for
reasons that remain mysterious very, very angry. The
experiment that gave rise to this thing is perhaps
better left unpondered.
Ability
Intensely Shaggy (Inherent): Gives a -1 penalty to
any hero who comes into physical contact with it as
its hairy body tangles everything nearby.
Tactics
Giant Angry Shaggy Things want to get up close and
personal and either unleash their anger in attacks
and maximize the effect of their shagginess. They
prefer to go after already damaged targets to add
insult to injury.
Nanite Swarm
Minion (1 per 2 Heroes)
Description
These nanites were used by the Center’s scientists
to edit chromosomes of their test subjects. A swarm
of them has escaped and attacks the heroes.
Ability
Self-duplicating: A Nanite Swarm makes an
Overcome check to create another Nanite Swarm.
A result of 4+ creates a Nanite Swarm. A result
of 8+ creates a Nanite Swarm.
Tactics
Nanite Swarms have an order of operations they
prefer to follow, if possible. First, they duplicate.
Then, they Hinder their opponents. Then, they
Boost themselves or other Nanite Swarms. Then,
they Attack. Repeat!
Inhibitor Process
Minion (1 per 2 Heroes)
Description
This is a computer program that the immunosecurity
system initiates that tracks heroes who have
attempted to circumvent security systems and
attacks them using the lab’s automated systems:
lasers, knockout gas, sonic weapons, electroshock
weapons, etc.
Ability
Software (Inherent): As a computer program, an
inhibitor process is only susceptible to computerbased
technological attacks. Physical attacks against
it are ineffective.
Tactics
Any hero interacting with the security or computer
systems is a target for the Inhibitor Process, who
seeks to drive away intruders with Attacks and Hinders.
