Ed's Notes: Despero's later (current?) form is basically big, dumb muscle.  I liked him better before, but this could throw the players for a loop if they were expecting (and prepared for) the original form.

Ed's Notes: Despero's original form (pre-Py'tar) was one of relative normal (albeit alien) build who was a master manipulator and strategist.  The JL Sourcebook includes the Omni-Gadget, the 3rd Edition Who's Who omits it, but it makes sense from his stories in the comics, so I'm including it.  The JL Sourcebook omits his Growth Power.
