Fading MemoryName: Henry Hanks
Alias: Tom Fury
Age: 35
Appearance: Like a younger Scott Glenn, dressed in well-used outdoor wear: duster, sturdy boots, Western hat
Power/Skills:
Equipment: Lightning Rod - Tom carries a special lightning rod he calls "Ol' Sally." It has the power to absorb and discharge electrical energy. If he absorbs the power of the rod, he increases his strength for a few minutes (maybe strong enough to lift the rear half of a Buick). Note that it can only absorb electricity through lightning, so when Ol' Sally runs out of charge, Tom has to go out in a storm, climb a hill, and wait. The head of it looks like this, but mounted on a five-foot staff:
Personality: Honest, polite, protective, compassionate, earnest
Brief Bio: Tom is the latest in a long line of Tom Furys. As Henry Hanks, he was a park ranger who, upon the demise of the previous Tom Fury, was struck by lightning while trying to rescue a bear cub stuck in a tree. Upon realizing his altered nature, he did what Tom Furys do: wander the country protecting the innocent from the depredations of evil.
Notes: Tom doesn't cast spells, but occasionally he can devise a ritual or counterspell, relying on his instincts and general knowledge to do so.
