Complications:
Dishonorable Discharge - Sargeant Young was found guilty by a military court and kicked out of the army.
Enemy - Gladiator is sworn enemies with Messenger, both men wanting to remove the other from the battle field.
Obsession - In addition to his own power, Gladiator wants Messenger's power crystal to make himself even more powerful.
Secret - In spite of appearances, Franklin does have a heart. He deeply misses his elderly wife, children and grandchildren. That is the reason he has seperated himself from them.
Vulnerability - Due to his shapeshiting capabilities, Gladiator has an unexpected vulnerability to silver. He takes +2 Damage to the effect.
Arrest Warrant - Gladiator is wanted by local and federal law enforcement agencies.

Gladiator was created and designed by Luke Wagner and Jim Caswell. He is an NPC.
