Champions – White Crane

Peter Collier isn’t a professional hero; he’s a professional architect. He just happened to get entangled in a botched convenience-store robbery – and found that the stress pushed his minor talent for channeling his C’hi into full operation. Since then, on his nightly jogs, he’s started wearing a bulletproof vest – and has dealt with several muggers and other petty troublemakers.

Despite his enhanced skills, and the fact that overenthusiastic reporters have labeled the unidentified vigilante-hero “White Crane” thanks to an early report that he used “the Crane Style!” (he doesn’t) he’s well aware that his abilities are not tremendously impressive compared to the powers that most superheroes possess. Still, he feels a need to help out where he can – and he can certainly help with local problems.
