Real Name: Agamemnon Occupation: Leader of Pantheon Identity: Secret Legal Status: Unrevealed Place of Birth: Unrevealed, possibly ancient Greece Marital Status: Unrevealed, presumably widowed a number of times Known Relatives: Achilles (son), Ajax, Hector, Paris, Ulysses, (sons or extended family), Atalanta, Delphi (daughters or extended family) Base of Operations: The Mount Past Group Affiliations: Pantheon Known Powers: Agamemnon’s only revealed power is Holographic Image Projection. He can key his image to specific brain wave patterns so that only those he wishes may see or hear him. His range for projecting his image is CL3000, but probably not more than 5,000 miles. There is no proof that Agamemnon’s projected image actually shows what he truly looks like; it is definitely the sagely aloof image he wishes to project to his children and fol lowers. Intangibility: As Agamemnon’s holographic image is little more than a picture of himself, it cannot be harmed by any means. Nor has it been known to take any offensive actions. Walls and other physical barriers present no problem to Agamemnon as he can pass through them. When inside The Mount, Agamemnon can increase the size of this image to in excess of 22’ (+3CS to be hit). As Agamemnon cannot attack or be attacked in this form, the image is used as either a scare tactic or an attention getter. Reportedly, Agamemnon does possess a corporeal form which resides deep in the bowels of The Mount. The nature of this body has yet to be revealed. Talents: Agamemnon claims that he is immortal and has lived for centuries. Over that time he has assumed dozens of identities and his talents and training are probably vast. He possesses enough Computer and Electronics Skill to have produced The Mount’s audio-visual media nerve center and probably has other scientific skills as well. His observation of mankind over the years grants him the Psychology Talent. This is an area of study which seems to interest him. Contacts: Agamemnon is the leader of the some 1500 people who reside in The Mount. He has no other known contacts. Role-Playing Notes: Agamemnon neither claims nor denies being the Agamemnon who was King of Argos and commander-in-chief of the Greek army against Troy. He does claim immortality, as his mother was an Earth woman and his father a god. The Agamemnon of antiquity was both the paternal great-grandson of Tantalus (a son of Zeus) and maternal great-great-grandson of Ares. He also claims to have assumed dozens of identities and have fathered hundreds of children. Agamemnon of Argos fathered one son, Orestes, and three daughters—Iphigenia, Electra, and Chrysothemis—before his death at the hands of his wife Clytemnestra and his nephew Aegisthus. Still, this may have been the first of Agamemnon’s identities and reports of his death were greatly exaggerated. Whether he is the Agamemnon of antiquity or not, there are similarities between the two men. Agamemnon of Argos, though a man of great courage, was considered fickle, vengeful, atrocious, arrogant, and abusive. He sacrificed his own daughter to gain a favorable tide. Agamemnon of Pantheon could be described as having some of these same qualities. He has the courage and arrogance to intervene in human events to avert potential disasters, even when this intervention takes the form of murdering a innocent child. His own children are tools with which he carries out his plans. Were they to die achieving their objective, their sacrifice would be viewed as necessary. History: See the Pantheon's history |
