POWERS & ABILITIES
(*=Linked)
The Hunger Cloak constantly feels a "hunger" which compels him to seek out living victims and project them into the dimension of darkness (treat this as a Serious Irrational Attraction). It is his belief that the dimension somehow " feeds" on the life forces of his victims (Spiritual Drain), which can manifest themselves as light. Hence, Cloak finds himself dependent on Dagger, who generates an unusual amount of life force "light." By absorbing some of Dagger's "light" into the dimension of darkness, Cloak can satisfy his "hunger" for a time without having to project other people into the dimension. The Dimension of Darkness has a Travel Distance of 2 APs
ROLE-PLAYING NOTES
Tyrone is shy and unassuming; but as Cloak, his stutter disappears and his voice deepens, projecting a dark and foreboding demeanor. Cloak gives the impression of being tightly restrained power-hungry and full of violent potential—always looking for an outlet. Tyrone is deeply protective of Dagger and takes great risks to keep her safe, even from himself.

Exusiai's Notes I've always liked Cloak, and his powers and limitations were a bit of a struggle to determine stats for in DC Heroes. There was an update in his power set where he had a physical body and no hunger, but I chose to stick with the"Classic" version of him. In some ways, he is a combination of DC Characters Nightshade and Obsidian without the Two Dimensional power.
