Hiram Worchester
(Fatman)

Designers Notes:
Hiram is positively huge, standing 6'2" and weighing 375 lbs. He is reasonably handsome, bald and has a full, neatly trimmed beard. He is always well dressed.

Hiram is the owner of Aces High, New York's premier restaurant located on the 86th floor of the Empire State Building. He is an excellent cook, and a rather gentle man, if a bit snobbish. He has a good heart, though and donates to many joker charities.

Hiram's powers center around his control of gravity. He can increase his own mass, or the mass of other objects, increasing their weight immensely. He can also negate gravity, allowing him self to tip the scales at a mere 30 lbs, float near the ceiling of a room, of cause a foe to float away.

Notes on powers:
I have given Hiram several powers to represent his control over gravity. The first is TK. Using this power, he can either increase of decrease the mass of an object. In either case, a target should make a STR roll to resist the effects. If Hiram increases someone's mass, they should roll vs his TK to try and move or other wise act.

Since they are grabbed (and Hiram will often try to bear his target to the ground) then their DCV will suffer as well. If making someone lighter, they will have to try and exceeded Hiram's TK to try and get an effective blow in.

For example: if some one punches Hiram and he uses 20 STR of TK to reduce their mass, they would need at least 23 STR (or an equivalent mixture of STR, Hand Attack or Martial Arts) to begin to do any damage. The EB and HKA powers represent what happens when Hiram increases one's mass very rapidly.

If he does it suddenly enough, he can break bones and rupture organs. Finally, his Flight power comes from making someone so light that they float away from the Earth's surface. This Flight has no real control, and anyone so effected is at the mercy of a strong wind.

Note: although Hiram's powers are 0 END and Persistent, they will slowly fade over time (usually a few hours). Also, extensive use of his powers will tire him, in which case Hiram will promptly eat a large meal in order to restore his lost energy.
