The Origin
The Usher always wears gloves, robes, boots, and a mask complete with goggles such that no part of their skin is showing . . . mainly because the Usher's touch is immediate death to any living thing. A slender, nonbinary person, the Usher's condition means they preferred not to be bothered. If someone tries to look them up, they discover a few records indicating someone called "John Usher" came into the employ of one Treyvon Harrari about two years ago. Tax records indicate they are paid a reasonable salary to tend the private gardens of Treyvon Harrari's mansion located in the Rocky Mountains. Treyvon always seems to be out of town, so if someone ever finds the mansion and the surrounding gardens in the first place (which is already hard to find), visitors probably end up talking to the Usher over the intercom. Truth is, Treyvon is the Usher. But upon gaining their ability and immediately killing their partner by accident, the Usher retreated from society so entirely that they even left their name behind. But they can't bring themself to leave their gardens, despite the fact that their naked touch would kill everything.
Motive: To be left alone
Environment: Alone, tending gardens on the grounds of a massive mansion in the Rocky Mountains
Health: 30
Damage Inflicted: Major wound (10 points)
Armor: 1
Movement: Short
Modifications: Speed defense as level 5; resist death effects as level 15
Combat: If the Usher removes a glove, their touch inflicts damage and the target must succeed on a Might defense roll or fall into a death-like comatose state that lasts for days. Even on a successful defense roll, a PC target descends one step on the damage track, and an NPC target takes another 10 points of damage. If the Usher chooses, they can infuse their influence into their breath, which they can blow at a creature within short range. The effect is diffused, and the creature's defense roll is eased by three steps.
Interaction: The Usher wants to be left alone, but they are still human. If someone comes with a convincing need for them to become involved in something, the Usher may choose to help out. However, that help might just turn out to be a ride in Treyvon's private jet, or a hefty donation of cash from Treyvon's bank.
Use: Someone from Treyvon's past has reappeared, luring the Usher into the field. However, the Usher is confused and unused to being out of their gardens, and metahumans with less than pure intentions have noticed them. The metahumans don't really know what they're up against.
GM Intrusion: The Usher stumbles and accidentally touches an ally (or at least not an enemy).
