Powers & Abilities

Genius Intellect

Radek is a certified genius, and master of several scientific disciplines. He's an accomplished inventor. He's also a cutthroat businessman and gifted strategist, albeit a brutal one. If he cannot simply destroy an enemy outright, he will move to outthink them, and destroy them later.

Radiation Absorption

Radek's physiology, perhaps galvanized by the harsh environment of his homeland, is entirely immune to doses of ionizing radiation that would kill other humans. More than that, his body seems to use the energy to repair cellular damage, thereby improving Radek's healing factor. This makes Radek uniquely suited to investigating - and weaponizing - radioactivity.

Weaponized Radiation

Radek's power armor carries cocktails of radioactive waste and volatile isotopes, and he uses them to pummel his foes with sickening, burning power. Going toe-to-toe with the Irradicator can cause radiation sickness and burns, often to the point of death. He can also use this power to weaken energy shields, disrupt electronics and melt through obstructions. Even when not wearing his power armor, Radek still wears an emitter belt that can dose his enemies with lethal radiation and carries a polonium dagger that's as poisonous as it is sharp.

Power Armor Defenses

Radek's power armor is made of a durable alloy that's impervious to small arms and resistant to heavy explosives, energy weapons and environmental extremes. It also manipulates its native radiation sources to saturate its surroundings and construct particle fields that can disrupt or even repel certain forms of energy.

Power Armor Strength

Radek's power armor augments his strength by a factor of twenty. The Irradicator can bend steel, throw automobiles, and crush bone in his hands.

Power Armor Weapons

In addition to Radek's radioactive arsenal, his armor contains other offensive weapons including tasers, polonium darts and electric nets.

Power Armor Flight

Radek's power armor allows him to fly at just over Mach 1, the speed of sound. Its controls are fine-tuned, and so Radek can also hover in place or levitate to and fro.

Weaknesses

Poor Health

While exposure to radiation and wearing his breather keep the effects at bay, Radek is still a man in poor health, and his habits only make matters worse. His lungs have congenital damage that he will never recover from, making him extremely sensitive to particulates in the air (smoke, dust, dander) or harsh shifts in temperature and humidity. His lung capacity is also below average. If separated from any source of ionizing radiation or his breather mask, Radek's chronic health problems come to the fore and weaken him considerably. As such, Radek always wears his mask.

Egomaniac

Radek's ego is massive, and though it propels his success it may also one day be his downfall. Radek's inability to see beyond himself is a blind spot; even more so when challenged. He does not forgive or forget transgressions, and metes out punishment for each one, sometimes in contradiction to prudence or pragmatism. Appeasement could be used to manipulate him, as he has trouble telling this apart from outright submission.

Lone Wolf

Radek abides no others in the world as equals. All are either tools to be mastered or enemies to be destroyed. As such, Radek has no true friends and no allies who would defend him in a crisis. His associations are often temporary and utilitarian. His love life consists of nothing but a revolving door of prostitutes. Even his employees, who are treated a touch better by him than by Arachnos, are worked long hours and kept in a constant state of fear to control them. In the end, it is Radek against the world, and he may one day find that even he, in all his genius and brutality, cannot stand alone.
