Volus

I Am A Living Weapon: Because I have honed my body and my skills, my unarmed strikes are equivalent to lethal weapons. I may use Focused instead of Combative when fighting unarmed without any special narrative justification or penalty. In situations where it matters I can choose to be treated as attacking barehanded or attacking with a weapon, whichever benefits me more in the situation. Finally, though I can be inconvenienced or restrained, being disarmed is generally off the table for me.

Brawler: Because I am so strong, I get +2 while I am Forcefully Focused and attack when fighting unarmed or grappling or when throwing heavy blunt things.

Indomitable Brawler: Because I am so tough, I get +2 while I am Forcefully Focused and defend when fighting unarmed or grappling.

Stunning Fist: Because I have learned how to throw a vicious punch, whenever I am Forcefully Focused and attack barehanded, if I succeed with style and choose to reduce the damage I inflict to get a boost I may use that boost to apply the situational Aspect Stunned! to my target with two (2) invokes. The target can remove this Aspect by overcoming a Superb (+5) difficulty.

Sprinter: Because I am able to put on a little extra burst of speed when I need to, once per scene whenever I move a zone I may choose to immediately move another zone for free and this does not prevent me from attacking. Alternately, if I do nothing but move I may use this ability to move two (2) extra zones.

Volus carries enough coin to buy food and drink for several days...even considering his prodigious appetite. Otherwise he has no use for the purposeless shiny bits of city metal. He carries a change of clothes and spare wraps for his hands and feet in a hip bag, and the clothes on his back. The world provides all else...and when that fails there is usually a pit fight or gladitorial contest or an easy mark to be mugged for an influx of funds.
