Description: Black Eagle stands 5'11" and weighs a solid 170 lbs. He's well built, with dark skin, a mustache, and handsome looks. A former W.W.II fighter pilot, he flew with the 332nd Fighter Group (the "Lonely Eagles") and had an unconfirmed 53 kills. After contracting the wild card virus he gained the power of flight, as well as the ability to project a telekinetic battering ram. He normally wears a black leather flier's jacket, a white scarf, a black flight helmet with goggles, and black boots. Under his jacket he wears his old US Army Air Corps uniform with the insignia removed. He was recruited into the Four Aces, but left the country after HUAC ripped them apart.
Campaign Use and Designer’s Notes: Here you go—one Golden Age super hero all ready to go. He’s a bit unconventional (seeing as he’s been soured on democracy and has turned to Marxism), but he’s still a hero. You might want to give him so Life Support so he can breathe when moving at 240” a Phase, and maybe some Life Support versus Cold so he can fly at high altitudes.
