Wendy Walsh is proud both of being an American and her Welsh heritage. She is secretly the descendent of ancient druids, and she knows weather spells passed down by her mother. While controlling the weather over a large area takes time, her greatest control is of the winds and she can summon powerful gusts to do her bidding.

She adopted the secret identity of Weather G'lass (prounounced guh-lass) to help the rebels. She wears a white robe and draws swirls of blue and white paint on her face and hands.

Weather G'lass has a nemesis: an evil witch named Weather Vein, who practices blood magic of the ancient druids. Weather Vein seeks only violence and death, and helps the British in an attempt to destroy the last of the rival druids.

Love the character and campaign idea.

I think that multipower is missing a point. Push and TK are not in the same group, so it would be 2 points for a multipower.

Push 4 + 1 variable -1 only outside +2 multipower = 6 pts.

Wally Eberhardt is a German immigrant blacksmith who was working at the iron forge at Valley Creek when Washington's army settled there in the winter of 1777. Wally was inspired by Baron von Steuben training of the men, and he resolved to be a rebel and a patriot known as Valley Forged.

Possessed of great strength from his work at the forge, Wally made himself a suit of iron armor. The armor makes him almost immune to muskets, but it is heavy even for Wally. When wearing the armor he must stop and rest every third turn or exhaust himself. Without the armor, Wally loses Armor, Resistance Knockback, and Weakness Electricity.

Reymond Vallois was a French fur trapper in Canada who fought against the British during the French and Indian War. With the French surrender, he travelled south of the Great Lakes, living extensively with the Indians. From them he learned how to call upon the aid of Fox spirit to conceal him from his prey.

When the colonies rebelled against the British, Reymond headed east across the mountains to join the fight. He served as a scout for Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox, and adopted the nom de guerre Wily Fox in imitation.

Pieter Werner was a Dutch immigrant to Boston. He was one of the rebels at the Tea Party and the Massacre. He volunteered for Washington's army and remained loyal until the hardships at Valley Forge. There he caught a cold which turned to pneumonia and Pieter died. But the next morning when the bugles called, Pieter got up and joined the ranks.

Pieter was still cold and discovered he could freeze ice out of the air, creating a thick layer of protecting frost on his coat and a sheet of ice under his feet. He brought out his old Dutch ice skates and uses them to skate as fast as he can create a patch of ice beneath him. As a continental soldier he is trained to use a bayonet and prefers to charge his foes as fast as he can skate rather than shooting his musket. He is always willing to lead a charge as he knows that he cannot be permanently killed.

As Winter Patriot he continues to wear his blue rebel uniform, but it becomes coated in a blue-white frost that is distinct. His skin is pale but not freakishly so.
