How to read this sheet

Every rank has a word and a number. "Incredible (40)" means the rank word is Incredible — that's the column you use on the Universal Table. The 40 is the math value — what gets used for damage, lift weight, FEAT intensity, etc.

Italic gray hints under each stat tell you what that ability is used for at the table (melee, ranged, dodge, etc.).

Tags next to each power tell you what the number means in play:

  • damage the number = how much damage this hit deals
  • absorbed the number = how much damage this armor blocks
  • sense the number = how sharp this sense is (intensity)
  • intensity the number = how hard targets find it to resist
  • movement see Movement block above for areas/turn and mph

Red BE tags like TB, En, Sh point to the row on the Battle Effects Table for that attack (TB = Throwing Blunt, En = Energy, Sh = Shooting, etc.). Roll the listed ability on the Universal Table; check that row for the result.

To resolve an action: pick the ability or power. Roll d% (1d100). Find that number's column on the Universal Table. Read the color — White (miss/fail), Green (hit/success), Yellow (good), Red (best). See FEATs for the full procedure.

History

Johnny Storm was a teenager when he accompanied his older sister, Sue, and her boyfriend, Reed, and their friend, Ben, in stealing aboard Reed's experimental rocket ship to give it its test flight, but instead became transformed by the cosmic radiation that leaked through the faulty shielding to turn Johnny into a flame-powered super being. Taking his name from the Golden Age Human Torch, Johnny helped his friends in forming the Fantastic Four, and has adventured with them ever since, enjoying his identity of the Human Torch almost as much as his hobby of car racing, and had many other adventures outside the Foursome, including extensive team-ups with Spider-Man.

On the FF's encounter with the Inhumans, Johnny met and soon fell in love with Cyrstal, who later joined the Foursome as a member. There relationship did not last, and Cyrstal returned to her home in Attilan. Later, Johnny helped "rescue" Alicia Masters from the Skull home planet, but this was actually a plot by the Skrulls to place Lyja (later, Laserfist) as a spy among the Four's circle of friends. Lyja ended up falling in love with Johnny, and as Alicia, Johnny courted and soon married her, to the disappointment and anger of Ben, the Thing.

During this time, Johnny was determined to remain in school, and enrolled in Empire State University. Eventually, Lyja was discovered, and although dismissing her at first, Johnny soon reconciled with her, and soon she revealed she was having his child. The "child" ended up being a Skrull bio-weapon, which the Four quickly defeated.

Johnny was among the heroes fighting the menace known as Onslaught, and seemingly sacrificing himself to absorb its energies. In actuality, he was displaced in another universe, and was soon returned to our reality with the rest of the heroes.
