Horus
Horus by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

Character concept portrait created in HeroMachine 3 for KaiserElectric's superhero IOT. The supers are actually NPCs and the players participate as regular nations.

Real name: An Horus
Sex: Male
Nationality: Maatan
Location: Africa
Abilities: Flight, super strength, super endurance. Able to channel elements through his staff, believed to be an ability inherent to his species.

Namesake of the Egyptian god; actually an extraterrestrial living on Earth for thousands of years. Bemused by the Abrahamic faiths. He was fun to design as I aimed to make him both recognizably hawk-like yet just enough alien that he comes across as otherworldly. Not long after I sent this to 'Lec he wrote an interlude where Horus ditched the shendyt for jeans and a leather jacket; I am all but certain he did it on purpose. :p
