Description: Bagabond is a small woman, standing 5'3" and weighing 100 lbs, with long dark brown hair. Currently, she is a bag lady, having nearly been driven mad by the sensation of suddenly receiving the sensory impressions of the millions of animals around her. She dresses in cast off clothing, is dirty, smells bad and lives in the streets. She is almost always accompanied by two cats, a large black male and a smaller ginger female.

Campaign Use and Designer’s Notes: For those wishing a somewhat realistic look to their supers game, Bagabond would fit right in. She also strikes me as the sort of character you’d find in a Neil Gaiman story. Her Mind Control might be even more impressive than what is listed—it might have an Area of Effect. Bababond might also benefit from the Scrounging rules in Post-Apocalyptic Hero.
