From: Michael Surbrook 
Subject: CHAR: Jeremiah Strauss

Designers Notes:
Jeremiah Strauss stands 5' 10" and weighs only 140 lbs. He really has no set features, since he can change his body's appearance at will. Born in 1942, Strauss doesn't quite seem to age. For an extended period of time (over 20 years) he was the Great Ape, a 45' tall gorilla that bore a great resemblance to King Kong. He caused the great New York blackout of 1965 when he converted enough electricity to mass in order to pull that stunt. Nowadays Strauss is limited to humans. He can mimic men and women, but has some trouble with voices. He can create claws or teeth to fight with, and can open most locks by extruding his finger into the mechanism.
