  THE
  WORST
   
  A CRIME FIGHTER RPG
  SOURCEBOOK
  
  Worst Of The Worst is a supplemental sourcebook for the game 
  Crime Fighter RPG. It contains eight Non-Player Criminals (NPCs) 
  from the world of Crime Fighter RPG. The NPCs are provided as 
  ready made characters for Crime Fighter RPG adventures. 
  Though a Crime Master (CM) may use the characters in this 
  sourcebook whichever way he or she so deems, some scenarios 
  involving each NPC are suggested at the end of this 
  sourcebook. All NPCs were created at a higher level than 
  beginning Player Crime Fighters (PCFs), with two NPCs (Ursa 
  Minor and Toro) created with one Experience Reward, two NPCs 
  (Sticky Widget and The Postman) created with two Experience 
  Rewards, two NPCs (Arachne and Tightrope) created with three 
  Experience Rewards, and two NPCs (Dragon Lady and Demonik) 
  created with four Experience Rewards. This is to add an extra 
  challenge for beginning and intermediate PCFs, as well as to 
  differentiate this sourcebook from Scofflaws & Scoundrels and 
  The Awful Eight. The rest of this sourcebook includes profiles 
  for each character included, followed by the suggested 
  scenarios section. The profiles of the NPCs go in the order of 
  lowest Experience Rewards to highest Experience Rewards. 
  Each character's profile contains their artwork, name, motifs, 
  Combat Skills, Detective Skills, Gadgetry, and a brief background 
  describing the character's origin and abilities.

  Suggested Scenarios for Worst Of The Worst
  Scenario for Ursa Minor A Russian mob war between two rival 
  gangs is raging, and Ursa Minor wishes to take advantage of 
  the situation to increase his own standing in the mob. His plan is 
  to hire out to both gangs, but then take them over and 
  consolidate them into one large gang entirely under his control. 
  It is up to the Player Crime Fighters to thwart Ursa Minor's plan.
  Scenario for Toro In an attempt to control Toro, an evil scientist 
  has implanted a hypnotic suggestion in the mind of the criminal 
  so that he goes berserk when seeing the color red. However, 
  something has gone wrong, and now Toro is on a citywide 
  rampage destroying everything in sight that is red. The Player 
  Crime Fighters must figure out the situation and stop Toro.
  Scenario for Sticky Widget Sticky Widget has recently heard of 
  the Player Crime Fighters, and plans to use them in her next 
  round of experiments. She executes a series of crimes which 
  are little more than controlled experiments for the PCFs. Her 
  plan pays off as she is able to create a powerful new glue 
  weapon to threaten the whole city with unless the PCFs stop her.
  Scenario for The Postman The Postman has reappeared, hitting 
  the city's post offices one by one in a random fashion that has 
  the local citizens afraid to use their nearest post office. The 
  Player Crime Fighters must determine the pattern to The 
  Postman's murderous new crime spree, and then put an end to 
  it before too many innocent lives are lost.
  
  Scenario for Arachne Arachne desires one of the male Player 
  Crime Fighters to join her in evil and be her new mate. In order 
  to force the PCF to do such, she has formed a plan to 
  individually kidnap all the other PCFs and trap them in a web at 
  her secret hideout. She then threatens to have her spiders kill 
  off the kidnapped PCFs unless the PCF she desires will join her.
  Scenario for Tightrope Tightrope has been hired by a 
  disgruntled mob boss to kill off all of the Player Crime Fighters. 
  Tightrope has decided to divide and conquer, creating a series 
  of distractions throughout the city to split up the PCFs. At each 
  distraction, Tightrope will ambush the PCF that shows up. Those 
  who survive the ambushes must regroup and find Tightrope.
  Scenario for Dragon Lady One of Dragon Lady's books has 
  become a major motion picture. Since she has sold off all the 
  rights to her books, Dragon Lady is furious that such a movie 
  has been made without her permission. She is determined to 
  disrupt the premiere of the movie and destroy the theatre it is 
  being shown at, and the Player Crime Fighters must prevent her.
  Scenario for Demonik Demonik has been showing up at various 
  museums and libraries in the city to steal a number of rare 
  books on the occult. It is believed that Demonik is stealing the 
  books as part of a demonic ritual, but he is in fact stealing them 
  for a very rich collector who wants all the occult books. The 
  Player Crime Fighters must stop Demonik and return the books.
