Welcome to Hyper Score Marvel where every week I use Hypercorps 2099 to put together an iconic hero or villain from the world’s most popular superhero universe! Unlike Street Fighter D&D, this series is for both the Pathfinder players out there and D&D 5E groups as well.

By request this week we have ROM the Space Knight! He’s no longer with Marvel (it’s actually an interesting history and he’s getting some love recently so check it out!) but since somebody asked for him, he’ll qualify for a build. If you have a favorite character you’d like to see, please comment and let me know. Tune in next week for another request: Axel Asher (for my fellow crossover fans, woooooo!) Also if you spot a way this can improve, share the info! I’m on Twitter @MikeMyler2, Facebook, Google+, and you can leave messages below the post. Thanks!

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Space Knight Armor (Ex) ROM has been fused to high-technology from Galador that makes him able to travel through the vacuum of space, superior strength and toughness, the power of flight, enhanced vision, regeneration, and vastly increased carrying capacity. Removing him from his armor requires high science or extremely powerful magic, but doing so deprives him of all hyper attributes, hyper feats, and hyper powers (but not hyper special qualities).

Analyzer. ROM can point his analyzer at a creature he can see to reveal if it is a concealed dire wraith. In addition, he can use it on objects to detect magical auras, potent psychic energy, or great technological power.

Space Knight Armor. ROM’s technologically bonded armor grants him advantage on ability checks and saving throws for Strength, Constitution, and Intelligence, darkvision, a fly speed, damage resistances, damage immunity to poison, condition immunities, and a +10 bonus to damage with melee weapon attacks and thrown weapons. In addition, he can travel safely through the vacuum of space and lift objects as heavy as 70 tons. Removing him from his armor requires high science or extremely powerful magic.

Spellcasting. ROM is a 20th-level spellcaster that uses Intelligence as his spellcasting ability (spell save DC 17; +9 to hit with spell attacks) and he has 4 spell slots he can use to cast any spell of 5th-level or lower.

ACTIONS

Multiattack. ROM can make four unarmed strike attacks or four neutralizer attacks each turn.

Unarmed Strike. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (1d8+15) bludgeoning damage.

Neutralizer. Ranged Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range 100/300, one target. Hit: 20 (4d8+2) radiant damage or banishment (the target makes a DC 17 Charisma saving throw or is transported to Limbo).

Thrown Object. Ranged Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range (100/200), multiple targets (determined by object size; make one attack roll per target). Hit: 19 (1d8+15) damage. The damage type depends on the object (bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing) and at 100 pounds and every 100 pounds thereafter, the damage increases by 1d8 (up to 105 [20d8+15] at 100,000 pounds).
