1. Chemical Power Device (Miraclo Pills):  Rex Tyler discovered a special chemical compound when ingested, granted greater physical strength and prowess. He named this compound, Miraclo, and distilled it into pill form. Hourman normally carries one dozen (12) pills at any given time. One pill grants the following abilities:         a. Heightened Strength B +16         b. Heightened Speed: +18" ground movement, +6 Initiative Bonus.         c. Invulnerability: 24 Points.         d. Weakness (Special Requirement): Each Miraclo pill lasts for one hour only. Additional pills will extend the time limit, but at the risk of having an adverse reaction to the chemical. For each pill after the first (within the same day), the character has to make an End save (on d20, -1 for each pill taken) to avoid an overdose. Should an overdose occur, the character is wracked with intense hallucinations, making interacting with the real world difficult (-8 on all tasks, ie to hit, damage, saving throws, etc). These frightening hallucinations will last for 1d3 Phases times the number of Miraclo pills taken. Once the Miraclo pill has worn off, the character is considered fatigued for End/2 Phases (after normal use) or End Phases (after an overdose).         Note: All Character Data (see below) within square parenthesis reflect Hourman's stats when on Miraclo.
2. Heightened Expertise:  +4 to hit in unarmed HTH combat.
3. Heightened Intelligence A  +6
4. Weakness (Phobia/Pyschosis):  The Miraclo formula has an unfortunate side-effect, it is extremely addictive. Rex Tyler must take a Miraclo pill each day or else suffer from withdraw (End save on d20, -1 for each day without Miraclo). Failure means Rex must take a Miraclo pill and if he cannot, he is considered fatigued and suffers a -4 penalty on all actions (ie to hit, damage, saving throws, etc) until he can take his pill. It will take End/3 weeks of being clean (ie no Miraclo pills) to properly kick the habit.
