Powers/Equipment:
HYPER-RUNNING:
Johnny Quick possesses the power to move at Class 3000 speed, and can attain velocities equal to that of the speed of light (186,000 miles per second). His super-human endurance enables him to run great distances without tiring.

VIBRATION CONTROL:
Johnny Quick can, with physical contact, inflict up to Incredible damage on a target by interfering with its internal vibrations and causing it to shake apart.

SONIC GENERATION:
Johnny Quick can generate a sonic boom which, with a successful Agility FEAT, inflicts Excellent physical damage on a target, and will deafen an unprotected human for 1-10 rounds. He needs to run in a straight line for at least two areas to create the noise.

TIME TRAVEL:
Johnny Quick has made several short trips (Shift 0 intensity) through time by means of his sustained acceleration. His longest trip was into the future for 1-1/2 days; his shortest was for less than an hour. Each experience was accidental, and the effects of time travel are extremely unpleasant and disorienting to him, on the level of a blackout. He therefore strives to avoid traveling at speeds which approach the time barrier.

Photography * Writing * Poker

The Crime Syndicate of America * Per Degaton * The Weaponers of Qward

Background:
John Chamberlain was a brilliant young pharmacy student when he turned to crime. He became a drug manufacturer, and was quickly climbing the ladder in an American drug cartel. One night, while he was engaged in research to create a new form of addictive stimulant, a posse of opposing hoods broke into his lab and shot it up, leaving him for dead. Unknown to anyone involved, Chamberlain was exposed to a strange mixture of chemicals and unrefined drugs. He healed at a vastly accelerated rate, and returned to work, rebuilding the lab at super-speed before anyone else knew that it had been shaken down.

Using his new powers, Johnny Quick (as Chamberlain now called himself) carried out his research and successfully created a new designer drug, which accelerated the metabolism of any of the drug's users by several orders of magnitude. He tracked down the gang which had attacked him, and administered his new drug to them at super-speed. They quickly died of massive overdoses, though it seemed to them as if their agonies lasted forever.

Johnny Quick became the only supplier of the new drug, making several fortunes by doing so. However, he soon left the drug business, as he held contempt for most of his business contacts and customers. He continued to lead a life of crime, motivated by profit and the desire for wealth.
