Alfred Dawkins
Supernatural advertising Executive
That'll kill you...
Patronising health adverts that make teetotallers turn to drink; inspire teenagers to smoke, or do drugs; drivers to speed. Dieting ads that send you on an eating binge. Alfred makes them all. He sees the future, a future of death, and has long since stopped trying to prevent it - instead, he sees to it that he is well paid to ensure it. The tobacco lobby loves him, and ensures that he is employed where he can do the most harm.
His actions have changed time by killing people, or on a couple of occasions having them turned into undead monstrosities - although he is only the bearer of bad news, the results have been sufficient to warp his soul beyond recognition.
Alfred knows which of the local goons are going to get killed by the PCs, so will ensure that those goons are on stand by to act as bullet shields. He should never be encountered alone.
His Lawbreaker Powers increase his inability to persuade others of the truth of their fates; Alfred deliberately tells the truth to ensure that people will not avoid their fate. He particularly enjoys it when people would have avoided the future but for his 'attempt to persuade' them to take precautions results in them refusing to do what they originally intended. (This is also necessary for him to increase his Lawbreaker Powers. Specifically, Lawbreaker 1 requires that they die because they change their action to refuse his advice; Lawbreaker 5 requires them becoming undead; Lawbreaker 6 requires a change to the city).
Important skills: Great Resources, Fair Intimidate.
Stunts: Infuriate, Teflon Persona
Powers: Cassandra's Tears, Lawbreaker 1, 5 and 6.
Against other NPCs, the -2 from Tears stacks with +3 from Lawbreaker as a -5 penalty on Discipline rolls etc to avoid temptations and continue on their normal, non-self-destructive lives.
Against PCs, Alfred should be throwing multiple compels based on their Troubles and how they will kill the PCs.
