Background/History: Homo Omega may be the Buro’s greatest creation... and their worst nightmare. Designed as a prototype for the next phase of human evolution, Homo Omega contains a host of improvements, both physical and mental. He is, without a doubt, far superior to his Buro masters, with unmatched physical capabilities, and an intellect to match. Thus, while the Buro toast their successes, Homo Omega secretly plans and plots, following his own agenda. Currently, he’s allied himself with a shadowy group of demonic abominations who call themselves the Vivisectors. They possess far greater arcanowave technology knowledge then the Buro, along with improved research and development capacities. It’s unknown what, exactly, Homo Omega wants from the Vivisectors, but it’s a pretty good bet it won’t be for the benefit of the Buro.

Personality/Motivation: Homo Omega is less then impressed with his supposed masters, not to mention the rest of humanity, finding them to be sorely lacking just about everywhere. However, he’s also intelligent enough to realize that “pride goeth before a fall.” So Homo Omega is more than willing to be patient and bide his time, and let his plans and plots develop slowly, and in due course. This ensures they’ll progress quietly and without interruption, waiting until the right moment for Homo Omega to reveal them to the world at large.

Quote: “There’s nothing you can say that I need or want to hear, human. So sit quietly while I prepare you for the arrival of the Vivisectors.”

Powers/Tactics: Skilled at all forms of combat, Homo Omega is a terror on the battlefield. While strong and fast enough to rend opponents with just his hands, Homo Omega prefers to adapt his Arcanomorph Arms to the situation at hand, and then attack at range, from a location of his choosing. His choice of slots will vary depending on target, but he likes to use the Tracer Resin Projector and Wave Suppresser to slow down and disable enemies before eliminating them with Buro Hellharrowoer or Helix Chaingun.

Appearance: Homo Omega stands seven feet in height, with a build best described as “massive.” He barely looks human and has a rough, unfinished texture to his body. Exposed cybernetic systems are embedded in his flesh, while his arms end in bio-mechanical nightmares.

Designer's Notes: Homo Omega is from the Feng Shui supplement Back For Seconds. He’s best used in certain forms of Star Hero settings, although one could make a case of him being a Champions villain, especially if you swap out “Buro” and replace it with “Telios” (you might want to up Omega’s INT then) and replace “Vivisectors” with “DEMON.”
