But this one is spooking inside my head and maybe writing down stats will hold it out. Don't know much about the B.R.P.D so I'm improvising a bit here. But hearing about Nazis every second sentence I just couldn't resist fleshing this old running joke of my tabeltop round into a real character.The heavy steel door opened slowly, squeaking in protest. Two men stepped in and it shut after them. From the inside they could here heavy bolts being set in place. It did indeed sound like a final closing and younger man looked around nervously. The old guard held a calming hand on his shoulder."Don't worry boy, she's tame, didn't have an incident in a dozen years."The younger man just shrugged and looked around. Instead of the cell he would have expected behind the door with was a stone cave and a pretty big one at that. He could see tunnels spreading from this main cave in five directions just at first glance."If she is to be of any use to us we don't need her tame. Your reports said this is still a dangerous prisoner."He takes another look around."And why is this place so huge?"The old guard just shrugs again."You just worry 'cause your suit looks out of place here. You desk people are all the same. What did ye think? We've been holding her fer longer then you lived and animals need place to run. She's more happy and we don't loose people then she's not agitated."Brushing some falling dust from his brand new leather jacket the young man steps into the nearest tunnel just to show he is not affraid."Comfort for prisoners is not our priority. How dangerous can someone be after so many years in here? I'm sure this is a waste of..."He stops in midsentece then his foot gets stuck in the remains of some animal. In the darkness it is not easy to make out but it looks suspiciously like a deer. "She didn't kill that did she?"Again the old guard just has a shrug for him."Sure did. We throw in some wild beasts her so she can knock herself out killing them. Needs that every few month or goes into a real frenzy. Not nice to see that."With an effort the younger man pulls his foot out of the remains."You feed her with living animals Mr Taggert?""Sure we do, she hunts it down so fast you can't even see it sometimes. Some guys have used this to get rid of unwanted pets that way too. Don't ye give me that look, she wants it that way. Doesn't even touch dead food. Sometimes eats some salad and vegetables though, I guess that's the human part.""You sound very comfortable considering that she killed three guardsmen in her time here.""Told you it's different now. Caged animals and stuff. Plus you just have to show some respect then everything is fine. Lia!!!"The younger man nearly drops his briefcase and Mr Taggerts shout. It is followed by a moment of uncomfortable silence. The old guard relaxes and leans on the cave wall while his companions eyes dart around nervously, trying to make out more in the gloom. At first he doesn't see a thing but then a figure emerges from the darkness. It is about the height is his waist and strolls along on four legs. Before he can get a better look the form changes. The sound of breaking bones rings through the place and fur draws back as the creature changes form. It sure must be painfull but it never looses stride, now coming forward on just two legs. Then it finally steps into the light it is women in her early thirties. Her face looks quite young but her long grey and silver hair make her appear somehwat older. She is wearing simple grey pants and shirt and walks barefoot on the cold stone. The most remarkeble thing is the fresh blood running down her chin and her soft smile reveals some more on her teeth. Her voice despite being friendly allways sounds like a soft growl lies behind it."Guten Tag meine Herren. Mr Taggert, I have just eaten but if that is for me it is much appreciated. I would have prefered a women though, you know my tastes."The young man grows pale there he stands while the guard just laughs."Is that a way to treat your first visitor Lia? This is Mr Granson and he insisted to speak to you personaly."Her smile grows broader at that."Now how could it be more interesting than the chance to finally hunt some real prey."To his credit the young man catches himself fast and speaks with more authority than any of the other two would have expected from him."Ms Schneider I will not tolerate any more of your threats. I come with a propasal but that is much too good for the likes of you but if you continue to act like this I will just leave and let you rot in this cave. How long have you been here? Alomost fifty years I have been told. I am your only chance to avoid doing it all over again. How long can you expect to live? Another hundred years perhaps? I don't think you want to spend a whole century as a prisoner. And all this..."He waves around the cave"Is just generosity from us. We could pack you in a cell with about two meters in each direction for the rest of your life. Or just execute you like the rest of those Nazi criminals caught back then. Have I made myself clear?"She growls and long canine fangs slide out, spreading her mouth slighty open but she even takes a step backwards before she sits down crosslegged on the floor."I'm listening.""Very well. The B.P.R.D. is offering you a very generous deal. We are in need of new field agents and your skills make you a very suited candidate. Also fifty years in soliary confinement could very well be considered enough punishment. At least my superiors think so. I do not so be warned for in the end it will be my decision if you ever see daylight again. If you are willing to work for us we will pardon your crimes in WW2 and you could finally get out of this place."She just glares at him from the ground."You miserable misfits want me to be your hunting dog."Now it is his turn to smile."Now didn't you do that job before?"Again she just stares at him but in the end she shrugs and her shoulders sink down in resignation."You win drecksack."-Lia Schneiderage: 112height: 1.84mweight: 69kghair color: silvery greyeyes color: yellow-Abilities:Str 18 (+4)Dex 18 (+4)Con 18 (+4)Int 10 (+0)Wis 10 (+0)Cha 12 (+1/2)Cost: 26pp-Skills:Acrobatics 1Balance 1Bluff 1Climb 1Demolitions 1 Escape Artist 1Gather Information 1Handle Animal 1 Hide 1Intimidate 1Jump 1Language (English, German)1Listen 1Medicine 1Move Silently 1Open Lock 1Read Lips 1 Ride 1Search 1Sense Motive 1 Spot 1Survival 1Swim 1(note: Lia has amassed a wide range of skills in her long life but most have suffered a lot from the lack of practice during her impronment.)Cost: 11-Feats:AttractiveHeroic SurgeTrack(note: originally she should also have Instand Stand, Move by Attack and Lightning Reflexes but she got older and out of practice so having to stand up with a groan sometimes really fits.)Cost: 6-Super-Feats:DarkvisionImmunity: Aging (Lia does age but it is inceredibly slow)ScentUltra-HearingIdentity Change (Lia can trasnform into a grey wolf at will)Cost: 10-Combat: Base Attack 4Base Defense 4Cost: 17-Super Powers:-Base Power: Lycantrope (these are powers usable in both forms since Lia can cause her fangs and claws to grow even from her human body).Man Power: Natural Weapon (cost 2) Level 4Extra: Regeneration (cost 1) Level 4Extra: Super Senses (cost 1) Level 4Extra: Combat Sense (cost 1) Level 4Extra: Super Charisma (cost 1) Level 4total cost: 24-Base Power: Wolf FormMain Power: Leaping, Flaw: only as wolf(Cost 1) Level 2Extra: Bouncing (Cost 1) Level 2Extra: Running (Cost 1) Level 2total cost: 6-Flaw: Vulnerable to SilverBackground: Lia is Werewolf, born in the late 19th century in germany. The curse has given her remarkeble regenrative powers and her agin has slowed down to a fraction because of them. At first only a creature that hunted down villagers like in the dark ages Lia later got more interested in human society then the Nazis took over power. She was found by one of their occult projects and used in the war as an assasin and obeservation object. She also destroyed man other occult creatures sent against her own project. In the end she was defeated and caught then the secret station of the occult project was raided by American agents. At a loss what to do with the creature but thinking her too valueable to just destroy she was then improsined. (note: that's a really rough draft, I have no idea about the Hellboy background, only remember something vague about Nazi magic and such.)</blockquote>
