Food of the Gods: 1955 - A Superhero Nation Game

@inquisition would I be able to get Powers of the Body for 2pts, Body manipulation for 1pt, and then both Invisibility for 1pt and Alter Size for 1pt or no?
Yes, but it's worth noting that Alter Size is a subcategory rather than a power in and of itself. Still, you could absolutely go with that, and then take the two size alterations next year.
Hero name: El Chapulin Colorado "The Colourful Grasshopper"
Real name: Roberto Gómez Bolaños
Sex: Male
Age: 26
Bio (partly copied from Wikipedia):
Roberto Gómez Bolaños was born in Mexico City. His father, Francisco Gómez Linares (c. 1892 – 7 September 1935), was a painter and a cartoonist from the city of Guanajuato, Guanajuato, who died of a stroke at the age of 43. His mother, Elsa Bolaños Cacho (4 April 1902 – 22 December 1968), was a bilingual secretary (fluent in both Spanish and English) from the city of Oaxaca, the youngest child of Ramón Bolaños Cacho, a military doctor, and his Zacatecas-born wife, María Aguilar. As such the young amateur boxer, engineering student and comedic actor was a prime candidate when the PRÍ started its great search for the "Champion of the People" who they wished to use to serve for public proganda purposes of the Revolutionary government.
Roberto was well trained, had an educated military background and of course his first-cousin once removed was Secretary of Government in the presidential government. But most of all he was charismatic. Very charismatic.

Public persona:

Childish and humorous, slightly, but sympathetically ill-mannered, claimed by the Mexican government to make the most quips of any superhero in the world. Rebellious as any good Mexican, but pious and respectful of moral authority. Staunchly Latin American. Staunchly Socialist and anti-Russian.

Appearance:

Powers & Abilities:
WEAPONS-BASED (2)
-Enchant Object (Hammer) (1)
-Powered Prostheses (1) -> Elector-Magnetic Flight Harness (1)
Accepted.
 
Also, I forgot to mention: please specify whether your hero(es)'s true identity is secret or not.
 
What a crazy day it was today, I will get my character up tomorrow. Let's say I am so proud of being a Portuguese.
 
Hero Company name: Pandora Biochemical
History: Founded in Switzerland in 1949, Pandora Biochemical is a corporation dedicated into research into Ambrosia and its various properties and applications, and it has been among the most successful of that category, responsible for a number of major innovations in the Ambrosia enhancement process--a major product of its, for instance, is the medical use of trace amounts of Ambrosia for highly advanced genetic medical therapies to treat illness (mostly in very rich people--this is expensive). While initially focused primarily on research, Pandora's mission changed considerably in 1953 when it was contracted by the Argentine government to develop a domestic superhuman program, Argentina itself lacking the technical expertise to do so. In this capacity, the bulk of its operations have since moved to Buenos Aires where Pandora receives the patronage of the Peron government.
Appearance (If a picture, please keep it SFW):

Powers & Abilities: Pandora almost certainly uses superhuman talent in its operations in some fashion, but what fashion this is is not entirely clear to outside observers.

Just noticed this, if,you have specific plans or really want Japan above and beyond I'm fine with Australia as I don't really have any plans set in stone beyond vague ideas.

Naval Heroes I bet. The only reason I want Japan is for the Waifu Heroes I can make like Ship Girls, etc. XD

Also, please?

whaaaaaaaa but... @JbeJ275 please do some research on us when you can :( We don't have pithy green beret losers :p we have SASR. that's right, the real men, hard men doing and making hard things look easy.
Copy cats.

But WWII is rather weird given that special forces were kind of still coming into their own so you'd have them doing the jumping out of planes, sneaking about in the dead of night, disapearing fuck knows where for days and causing mayhem whilst also doing more conventional stuff where needed. There were whole divisions of commandos fighting for the UK sometimes as specialists in small units other times as basically just a very well trained division.

Also most nations had their own elite units for each branch of the military and the recon components and HQ guards of regular regiments and above also on occasion were used for special missions.

Basically you can plausibly draw your pool of recruits from just about the entire armed forces if you're so inclined. Allows for a more varied experience.
