Ed's Notes: Permanent. Damn. That makes this guy the AD&D Level-Draining Undead of the DC Heroes Universe. ow fucking pissed would a played b who finally managed to increase a high-factor cost Power just to LOSE that extra AP, permanently (until they can raise it again, anyway) and meanwhile this guy gets the level the PC used to have all at once. Permanently.  Mother fu.... I don't even know... PC's would be PISSED about that! Whoa be to the PC's who underestimate him, I guess. Christ. PERMANENT AP loss.

Ed's Notes: Yes, there IS a page for Adolph Hitler.  And this is about as bad a WWII baddie as you can get, sans super powers.  The Holy Grail?!  Control over every one of Earth's mystics?!  Daaaaaaaamn.  As "normal guys with macguffins" go, I don't think you'll do much better than this. Mission? GET BACK THE HOLY GRAIL! Lol

Also, his entry in the WaW source book is largely comparable to this one, but has some changes. I've included the additions above, in yellow. In terms of changes, it make his Connection with Adolph Hitler (Low), takes away his Authority Figure Drawback and gives him just 70 Hero Points.
