Swordsman

The Swordsman is next on my list of iconic superheroes for Mighty Protectors! Although the name implies that this hero is male, the swordsman may be any gender.

This hero's abilities include: Special Weapon, Reflection, Heightened Agility, Heightened Expertise, Armor and Heightened Attack.

As the name suggests, the Swordsman expertly wields a magical (or hi-tech) sword that can be summoned at will. Using the Reflection ability, the Swordsman is able to reflect certain ranged attacks.

Suggested weaknesses include: Dark Past, Compulsion (Low Self-Control), and Special Requirement (drugs or alcohol).

Edited 4/20/18: Fixed minor errors on Living Laser and revised Grim Reaper a bit.
