Ed's Notes: This combines both entries, as the WaW Soucrebook omits Connection: All-Star Squadron (High) and his Mistrust Drawback, meanwhile the BG/R Book omits his Secret Identity Drawback. Also, while both Sources have the Power Limitation (tying the other Powers to his use of Superpseed,) WaW lists it as a limitation, and the B/R Book lists it as a Miscellaneous Drawback.

Welcome!

Welcome to the Mayfair Games DC Heroes RPG online Character Database!

This is a older game, long out of print, but I was a huge fan of it (obviously) and would love to get a group back together at some point. In the meantime, I hope you find this resource to be both useful and enjoyable.

The information contained herein comes primarily from the second and third editions of the game, although if a character exists only in the (pre-Crisis) 1st edition, and I feel that their stats can be reasonably used and be a good fit with the later (post-Crisis) editions, I may include them as well, for completeness sake. Eventually all entries will include links to previously published versions of the character, and ALL character information on any given page will be cited back to the published source material. Links between the characters, their Connections, Teams, Bases of Operation, etc... will be included as often as possible - which should make this more interesting.

I may also include some notes with some of the entries, explaining how I might change the character in my campaigns - Handling connections differently (because I interpret the JLA and JLI my own way, and don't even recognize the JLE, for example), adding skills (how does Bat-Girl have a Batarang, but not the Weaponry skill?!) And in some cases just some general thoughts. (Likes/dislikes, head-scratchers, etc...)

I also think there should be a discussion, if people are interested in having one. So please leave comments, but also bear in mind that this is meant to be a FUN place for people with a shared interest and hobby. So, PLEASE, stay on topic and DON'T BE A DICK! ;)

You list this Flash's alter ego as Barry Allen when it's clearly Jay Garrick.

CBR has published a page ranking every Flash from slowest to fastest, to help get an accurate measure of what stats should go with each Flash.

https://www.cbr.com/dc-every-flash-ranked-by-speed/

Jay Garrick was the slowest, so, I think his speed should start the Flash speed line at 14.

Wally West II at 20.

Bart Allen at 21

Jess Chambers at 22.

Avery Ho at 23.

John Fox at 24

Reverse-Flash at 25.

Barry Allen at 25.

Wally West I at 26.
