Calavera/Golden Skull (Damage Utility)
- Drawing by a friend of mine
Lore
Raised in the hispanic neighborhoods of New York, Calavera was born into a poor family that fleed the Civil War. His parents, unable to afford protection money from The Mendozas Syndicate, had to hand him over to ensure their survival. From a young age, Calavera was trained to steal and serve, learning the art of stealth and criminal strategy.
Everything changed the day he discovered he could manipulate gold at will. With this power, he quickly paid off his family's debts and rose to fame in the criminal world, becoming a legendary thief, respected and feared for his ingenuity and impossible heists.
Now free from the shadows of those who once controlled him, Calavera realized that empty violence and the blood of innocents left no mark on his soul. He vowed to steal only when necessity or justice demanded it, targeting those who deserved it and leaving the innocent untouched—a ghost in the streets of New York, both feared and strangely admired.
Nicknames
Calavera: Name used in the hispanic neighborhoods, reflecting their respect and fear among the community.
Golden Skull: Name given by the press and the police, inspired by his golden skull-shaped mask, his trademark during the most daring robberies.
Example Interaction
Ivy: "What are you doing here, capullo?"
Calavera: "Oh, you must be Ivy, right, tiny thing?"
Ivy: "Don't talk to me like that, cerdo de los Mendoza."
Calavera: "I'm not working for them anymore, pequeña… I know what it's like to be used. If you want, after the ritual, we could plan a little scheme together."
Kit
Weapon - Legado
Snubnosed revolver with black and gold finish. Accurate at close quarters, damage falls off quickly beyond mid-range.
Ability 1 - Shrapnel Cone
Calavera creates a shrapnel explosion with gold pieces on a short cone shape, dealing damage and slowing enemies.
Ability 2 - Piercing Projectile
Calavera fires a large, piercing projectile forward over mid-to-long range, stunning the first enemy it hits.
