GENRE
Supervillain

Plaguemaster isn't just a supervillain, but a sort of "supervillain doctor" that sells his services to other supervillains. Given his penchant for creepy experiments and notable lack of people skills, most supervillains tend to consider Plaguemaster a sort of "last resort" when presented with other options, as well as a widespread rumor that Plaguemaster secretly infects his buyers with slow-burning diseases. In truth, as fun as that would be, the vile plague doctor realizes that returning customers are the best kind of customers and reigns in his impulses when dealing with clients. Even superheroes get this treatment, as a favor he does for them is a favor they owe him. And it allows Plaguemaster to charge them out the rear end. Plaguemaster is also not much of a "master villain" as he prefers to stay in his lab to further his goals of perfecting the ultimate strain of Shingles or West Nile. That said, let it never be said that the heroes will never face the Deadly Master of Disease or his forces in battle! Many villains use combat drugs and abominations purchased from Plaguemaster, and heroes wishing to get rid of these nefarious weapons may wish to deal with the source of the problem. Or, perhaps, a DNPC has fallen gravely ill and only a certain supervillain can heal them. For a steep price, of course... In higher power campaigns, Plaguemaster is a member of the supervillain order known as the Masters of Chaos. Plaguemaster is the evil genius of the group, often providing them with his scientific acumen and world-class wonder drugs. As long as Plaguemaster is free, the other Masters of Chaos are strengthened through his medical expertise and potential doomsday plagues.

Plaguemaster is not in his element in combat, but is deadly nonetheless. Plaguemaster will let his minions do the fighting while he finishes his work and leaves. But if absolutely necessary, he will keep himself as far from the heat of the combat as possible, aiding his minions from behind the scenes. These are, of course, extreme circumstances. More than likely, Plaguemaster will deal with someone through email or through other, impersonal methods of communication. In cases where brute force is needed, Plaguemaster will simply defer to an underling (or make a whole new one who can fix the issue). In the rare scenario he leaves the house, Plaguemaster does so with upmost secrecy, at night, and with several bodyguard Abominations.

One can only imagine what sort of virus-human monstrosity Plaguemaster has become. Few have seen what he really looks like beneath his Venetian plague doctor garb, but even fewer lived to tell of mad pustules covering his face and ready to burst. Deep lacerations and sores cover every inch of his itchy, slimy body. Plaguemaster covers himself totally in order to prevent cross contamination during his experiments, as well as for his clients' benefit on the rare occasion he has to meet with someone face-to-face. When dressed, Plaguemaster resembles a male human of roughly six feet in height, wrapped from head to toe in a state of the art costume that looks like an old plague doctor outfit one would see at a Rennaissance Faire, but more modernized. The outfit is mostly black, save for the bird-like, bone-white mask ubiquitious with plague doctors from old Venice.

No one knows exactly where Nostradamus Septice, aka "Plaguemaster" originated from. Some say he was a former world-class doctor who was disgraced after his unethical experiments were discovered. Others claim he is actually a plague doctor who is hundreds of years old and has gone insane from living so long. Few can grasp the truth, and none of it is pleasant. Whatever the truth, the end result is the same--the rise of the supervillain, Plaguemaster.An enigmatic supervillain that other villains tend to buy their surgeries and chemical weapons from, Plaguemaster is a man owed many favors. In desperate times, even some superheroes have requested a commission from the mad doctor, provided they bring Plaguemaster both a hefty sum and whatever else he requires (such as blood samples for his own experiments). Rarely a "master villain" as Plaguemaster tends to keep to himself and tries not to antagonize any local superheroes or authorities, although he is never short of needing test subjects. When needing funds, Plaguemaster merely puts out a notice he is taking commissions "on discount" and lends his abominations out to other villains to use.

A doctor obssessed with diseases and all kinds of illnesses, Plaguemaster has a fascination with viruses and bacteria to the point of experimenting on his own body. While he suffers from the effects of these various illnesses, however, Plaguemaster considers himself in "bliss" that he can be infected so. These unique strains has also granted Plaguemaster a totally unheard of bio-environment: A body that can suffer all the acute symptoms of an illness except for the life compromising ones. All the better to more experience "blissful suffering". In his perfect world, Plaguemaster would like nothing more than a laboratory and endless time and test subjects to produce deadlier strains of the flu or malaria. Unfortunately these things cost money, and so Plaguemaster must occasionally have to deal with the outside world by lending his exceptional services. Even occasional visits outside can try his patience. The only thing that can even come close to counterbalancing Plaguemaster's aversion to the outside world is infecting superheroes with his freshly-produced Superflu (that acts within seconds) and seeing the fruits of his research blossom, often in painful and unpleasant ways. Plaguemaster also suffers from frequent mood swings, his poor brain suffering constant fevers from his illness. Yet this somehow never seems to erode his overall scientific acumen.As a member of the Masters of Chaos, Plaguemaster nonetheless has a loyalty to his supreme leader, Deathmaster, and a surprising amount of trust placed in his fellow members, Warmaster and Fearmaster.
