Description: Fadeout is tall and athletic, standing 6' and weighing 170 lbs. He is blonde and blue eyed, with handsome features and excellent taste in clothing. His power is the ability to turn invisible. It should be noted the "fringe" effect on his invisibility is not a fringe outlining his body, but the fact that he must keep his eyes visible in order to see. He can make his eyes invisible, and lose the fringe effect, but he will also be blind as well (This is not bought on his character sheet as the "No Fringe" adder is balanced out by his blindness).

Campaign Use and Designer’s Notes: Fadeout is one of several “one-trick pony” characters you’ll find in Wild Cards. That said, he’s still rather useful and well designed, especially if you’re looking for a number of low-powered street-level characters for your campaign. However, you might want to up his STR to 15, his DEX just a bit and maybe give him some CSLs with his Kung Fu.
