POWERS: Control: 4, Energy Absorption: 16, Energy Blast: 10, Flight: 5, Growth: 8, Power Reserve: 50, Regeneration: 1, Sealed Systems: 40, Split: 3
SKILLS: Scientist: 9
BONUSES: Control has an Area Effect; Split alllows Starro to turn up to three normal starfish into duplicates of himself; Slpit also allows Starro to spray fourth thousands of miniature starfish; RAPs absorbed through the use of Energy Absorption Power are added to Starro's Power Reserve; Power Reserve can be used to augment Starro's Flight, Energy Blast or Control Power of his miniature starship: once APs are added to these abilities, they are considered "spent" and are subtracted from Starro's Power Reserve total until he replenishes the Reserve by absorbing more energy. The added APs remain for APs of time equal to Starro's Energy Absorption Power (16), at which time they return to their normal levels unless augmented again by Starro.
LIMITATIONS: Growth is Always On (effects already figured into attributes); Power Reserve begins at 0 APs: one AP is then added to his total for every RAP he absorbs using Energy Absorption up to a maximum total of 50 (Starro can retain absorbed energy indefinitely)
ADVANTAGES: -
DRAWBACKS: Attack Vulnerability: Cold, -4 Column Shifts; Fatal Vulnerability: Garden Lime, 0 AP Range; Loss Vulnerability: Garden Lime, 0 AP Range, affects all Powers and Attributes
ALTER EGO: N/A
MOTIVATION: Power Lust
OCCUPATION: World Conqueror
WEALTH: N/A
NOTES: In this timeline, Starro managed to beat the Justice League during his first appearance, possibly because Snapper Carr didn't come up with the garden lime trick. I still can't see myself removing the Vulnerabilities to the substance. The Starfish-Deputies and Miniature Starfish do not make an appearance, so their stats are not included.
