Cosmi-Rod: This weapon, made of Unearthly material, can manipulate cosmic energy at Monstrous rank. He can use it as a club, inflicting Unearthly damage. He has developed the following Power Stunts:

Armor: Ronan wears a special suit that protects him from the effects of the Cosmi-Rod and provides him with Incredible protection against heat, cold, energy, and radiation, and Amazing against physical attacks. It also raises his Strength and Endurance one rank each to Monstrous levels. And finally, he can use it to turn himself invisible at
Excellent rank.


Talents:
Ronan is a Weapons Master with the Cosmi-Rod, and is skilled in navigating through hyperlight. He is the ultimate enforcer of Kree law. Contacts: For most of his life, Ronan has served the Kree Empire.
Role-Playing Notes:
The Accuser has always been arrogant and self-righteous, carrying out the justice of the Kree empire as he sees fit. He enjoys a good fight, fighting honorably when it is not to his extreme disadvantage to do so.
History:
Ronan was born into one of the leading families of the Kree aristocracy, which purports to trace its ancestry back millions of years to the original Kree tribes of the planet Hala.

Due to his high social rank, Ronan was immediately admitted into the Accusers at junior officer rank upon completing his education. The Accusers are an elite corps of Kree government officials, entirely made up of blue Kree, that has been in existence for millions of years. It is the responsibility of the Accuser class to enforce and administer justice throughout the galaxy-wide Kree Empire. Ordinary Kree police, and all government officials of planets within the Empire and not inhabited by Kree, are responsible to the Accusers. The Accusers prosecute, judge, sentence, and execute all Kree below their aristocratic class who are accused of crimes. (Except in special cases, only Kree high officials or aristocrats receive jury trials.) The Accusers also act as prosecutors, judges, and executioners in cases on Kree-ruled planets, or even planets like Earth on which the Kree have established bases, which involve real or alleged activities judged by the Kree to be against the interests of the Kree Empire. The Accusers strictly adhere to the severe Kree legal code, which permits death, exile, and forms of brainwashing as punishment for numerous offenses. In special cases, the Accusers themselves go forth to capture alleged criminals. The Accusers oversee Kree military operations conducted for punitive and imperialistic reasons. Accusers also act as governors and high officials of planets that the Kree place under martial law.

Ronan made a rapid rise through the Accuser corps, winning high commendations for his bravery and skill in capturing many rings of alleged traitors and in helping to put down various rebellions. He held a number of planetary governorships, each time receiving a more important world to rule. Finally, as a result of his great success in leading a fleet of warships against the Skrulls in a major border incident, Ronan was promoted by the Kree Supreme Intelligence to the office of Supreme Public Accuser. In this role, the third most important in the entire Kree Empire (only the Supreme Intelligence and the Imperial Minister rank above him), Ronan is addressed as “Ronan the Accuser,” a simple title which inspires great awe throughout the Empire.

As Supreme Public Accuser, Ronan personally went on missions only of the highest importance to the Empire. Such was his mission to Earth given him by the Supreme Intelligence to punish the superhuman Earth beings known as the Fantastic Four for their disabling of a Kree Sentry, a feat that very few could accomplish. However, the Fantastic Four defeated Ronan. The Supreme Intelligence blamed Ronan for his failure. Ronan, determined to avenge his defeat, was angered by the Supreme Intelligence’s decision to put Earth under observation rather than to sanction any full-scale reprisals. Ronan had long disagreed with the Supreme Intelligence’s liberal policies toward racial integration and intermarriage of blue Kree with pink Kree or with non-Kree humanoids so that the genetic make-up of the blue Kree race might be revitalized. As an ambitious, aristocratic blue Kree with strong racial pride, Ronan did not believe that the Empire should be ruled by a non-humanoid entity like the Supreme Intelligence. Hence, when Kree Imperial Minister Zarek, another blue Kree aristocrat who shared Ronan’s opposition to racial integration, proposed that the two of them form a conspiracy to depose the Supreme Intelligence, Ronan readily accepted.

The Supreme Intelligence learned of the conspiracy, however, and both Ronan and Zarek were apprehended and imprisoned. Ronan, though, had widespread and powerful support from the entire Accuser corps, the aristocracy, and much of the armed forces. Some of his supporters freed him from prison, whereupon Ronan killed the Supreme Intelligence’s guards and seized control of the Empire. Shortly thereafter, a major new Kree-Skrull War broke out, during which the captive but not yet helpless Supreme Intelligence activated the vast latent psionic powers of the Earth youth Rick Jones. Jones used his powers to paralyze Ronan and his armed loyalists on Kree-Lar, and the Supreme Intelligence took power once again.

The Supreme Intelligence put Ronan under its psionic control and used him in an unsuccessful battle against the Kree Captain Mar-Veil. Ronan’s will, which had been greatly strengthened through years of using the Universal Weapon, continually but unsuccessfully resisted the Supreme Intelligence’s control until finally, Ronan’s mind snapped. The Supreme Intelligence, in need of influential allies when it had fallen from power, restored Ronan’s sanity and formed an alliance with its former opponent. The Supreme Intelligence now believed that the exploitation of Earth humans, with their potential for vast psionic powers, was the key to revitalizing Kree genetic stock, and was therefore no longer as intent on pushing blue Kree integration with other races still further. After an unsuccessful encounter with Captain Mar-Vell and Ms. Marvel, Ronan returned to Kree-Lar and his old position as Supreme Public Accuser under the Supreme Intelligence, which is again firmly in control of the Kree Imperial Government. Ronan’s position in the Kree Empire now that Supremor is insane, is as yet nebulous.
