YELLOWJACKET I

Base of Operations:  Avengers Mansion
First Appearance:  AVENGERS #59 (as Yellowjacket)
Side:  Good
Sex:  Male
Age:  36
Height:  6'
Hair:  Blond
Eyes:  Blue
Level:  12th
Experience:  77,000
Training:  +1 Accuracy with Disrupter Stingers
1. Animal/Plant Control Device (Cybernetic Helmet):  yellowjacket has intregrated his Cybernetic Helmet into his costume and can control up to 36 HPs worth of ants. Since normal ants are so small and have negligible weight, they are treated as a swarm instead of individually. The size of a swarm is determined by its total HPs. For every 12 HPs, a swarm covers a area of 1" (thus a swarm at full 36 HPs would cover an area of 3"). Some of the swarm's stats are also based on its total HPs. Accuracy equals +1 for every 6 HPs (then add Accuracy Mod from Agility). Damage equals 1 Point for every 8 HPs. Power equals total HPs.

Animal Weight Agility Ferocity Hits Accuracy Damage Power Movement
Ant Swarm 1 20 12 36 +7 1-4 36 1" (3" flying)

        Those successfully attacked by a swarm must make an Endurance save (roll under Endurance on Percentage dice) or else become distracted by the multitude of insect bites (-4 on all tasks. ie to hit, damage, saves, etc). Those that fail their Endurance save must also spend their next action attempting to exit the ant swarm.
        It costs Yellowjacket movement only to command the ants to attack. In the past, Yellowjacket has commanded the ants to spell out messages, or even sabotage machinery (48% chance of success).
2. Flight Device (Powered Wings):  Maximum Speed 210 mph (924" flight), 16 charges, PR 1 charge/hour.
3. Heightened Intelligence B  +15
4. Heightened Senses Device (Goggles):  Goliath's goggles offer protection from blinding flashes (Endurance is doubled for saves against blindness).
5. Size Change:  Type B (Smaller). Prolonged exposure to his shrinking gas now allows Hank Pym the ability to change size at will. Since Goliath draws mass from another dimension to increase his size, his Agility is unaffected by his increased mass. Max Height Factor: 4; Max Weight Factor: 64. Yellowjacket maintains his original Strength and Carrying Capacity when shrunk down to ant-size (Weight Modifier effects only his current weight and not his Basic Hits).

        [OPTIONAL] Type A (Larger). Hank Pym still retains the ability to grow, but doesn't use it in this persona (see Goliath).

6. Special Weapon (Disruptor Sting):  Yellowjacket has a pair of disruptor stings built into his gloves. Attacks as Lightning Control: 28" Range, 2d8 Damage, 24 charges/glove.
7. Weakness (Phobia/Psychosis):  Henry Pym is often wracked with self-doubt. He often worries that his super-heroic identity won't be enough in the battle against evil. He will often brood when things don't seem to be going his way (ie when he was stuck at the height of 10 ft), until either he, or someone else, can bring him out of his depression.
8. [OPTIONAL] Weakness (Phobia/Psychosis):  After a lab accident, Hank Pym is left in a confused mental state - he refused to accept that he is was Hank Pym. He created a new identity, that of Yellowjacket, and pretended that Hank Pym was killed in the accident. He will later over-come this weakness while retaining the Yellowjacket costume identity.
