Okay, first off, I took
some liberties with this NPC. He's originally a special forces soldier who snapped and
became a channeler. However, I didn't want him to stop practicing his skills so I switched
his OCC but left his skills to progress normally. So he's really 9th level but he has 6th
level channeler powers. Second, I know that channelers require a ME of 9. He's a psycho so
I didn't want him to have an ME of 9. Third, he's really deadly and psychotic, so if
you're going to use him, use him right.Name: Nicholas Knight Aliases: Public Enemy #1

Character Information:
Nicholas Knight was a good army man and ended up being transferred to
the Green Berets after his first year. During his second year in the
Green Berets, he was on a mission and his team had just killed off an
enemy platoon, when the sky went black. Darkday had occurred. It seems
that not the entire enemy platoon was dead because before he knew it,
his team was dying around him, being torn to pieces. He found out later
that one of the enemy had undergone their Becoming and their newfound
regenerative abilities kicked in, healing him. He then tore apart the
squad and almost got Knight before he emptied an entire clip from his
M-16 in the Nightbane's chest at point blank range. However, the trauma
overwhelmed Nicholas's weak mind and he snapped. He went totally insane
and killed everything in sight. When he was out of bullets he started
hacking things, living or dead, to pieces with his knife.
The next year is very hazy in his memory, but somehow he made it back
to America and New York City in particular. During this time he had
developed strange magical powers and was contacted infrequently by a
creature that seemed to be his benefactor. The young Demon Lord had
gifted Nicholas with extraordinaty powers in order that he provide
sacrifices to the Demon. Over the past 5 years Nicholas has done just
that, killing at least one person per week. He is now officially the
most wanted man in the world, being suspected of over 500(!) ritual
murders. For an odd reason, however he has never been caught by the
police. What really is happening is that the Demon is having all police
who get near him killed on sight by a roving band of Dakini and
Necrophim. Nicholas's muders amuse him immensely and he doesn't want
his fun ruined. From the people he has murdered he has gained a
powerful arsenal or magical artifacts and during magical peaks he may
shine like a beacon to other supernaturals. Luckily his unseen team of
'Guardian Angels' and his own powers have been enough to keep him safe
from other hunters.
Nicholas Knight appears to be a large man dressed totally in black and
carrying a slender bundle on his back (the Mo Long Jen). He has greasy
black hair which hangs down slightly past his shoulders, and a
perpetually unshaven look. He is totally insane and actually derives
sexual pleasure from his murders (and he has a big libido, apparently).
He will kill _anyone_ without a second thought, whether it be a group
of school children, his mother (wait, he already killed her...), or a
cute little rabbit. He has NO remorse. He is rather prone to violent
outbursts, also. He is not always a cold, calculating murderer.

Powers: Helps mask one's presence by muffling sound, magically
darkening the area around a person slightly and masking their
shadow. Gives +25% to prowl.
2. TK-Uzi: An artifact from an unknown world. Nicholas took this from a
champion of the light whom he killed soon after becoming a
channeler. He was able to figure out how to use it rather easily,
almost instinctually. The gun fires bullets made from telekinetic
energy, leaving no slug for police to find nor casings nor powder
marks. Nothing. This is actually a Techno-Wizard Uzi SMG from Rifts
Earth.

as Invisibility: Simple (see page 131 of Nightbane). Note: There
is no name for the coat that Nicholas knows of, but his bent mind
decided that "Technicolor Dreamcoat" would be appropriate.
