I love the old 1980s cartoon series MASK (Mobile Armored Strike Kommand). If you never heard of them they are a highly trained international special mission team that wage war against their polar opposites VENOM (the Vicious Evil Network of Mayhem), an international terrorist group dedicated to wealth and power by force. Both teams use illusion as their ultimate weapons in their goals and each team possess ordinary vehicles that can become high tech war machines.

If GI Joe and Transformers had a child, MASK would be it.

This is MASK agent Bruce Sato. Code Named: Magic. Bruce is the stoic second in command of the MASK team. A mechanical and engineering genius, Bruce is instrumental in maintaining MASK's equipment and technology and has improved upon the original designs made by the late Andrew Trakker. Bruce also invents new and better technologies for MASK and the Peaceful Nations Alliance to use in their efforts to maintain and promote world peace and unity.

The best friend and confidant of Matt Trakker for years, Bruce has remained by his side through thick and thin. Through the years Bruce has been like a second father to Matt's adopted son Scott whom he as taught many of his considerable engineering and robotics skills as well.

Bruce takes great pride in his Japanese heritage and has studied martial arts, Asian philosophy and culture for most of his life. He will often quote obscure ancient sayings which usually confuses everyone around him but Matt who usually understands their meaning immediately and more often than not helps him formulate a plan of action during missions.

In his civilian life Bruce owns and operates his own toy company that develops high tech toys and gadgets for children of all ages. Owner of many patents Bruce is independently wealthy and spends most of his time devoted to MASK and their various endeavors.

Bruce wears Lifter Mask, a helmet that produces antigravity energy which he can use to lift and manipulate objects of various sizes in a variety of offensive and defensive ways.

Lifter is voice and thought activated and the wearers mind can guide the antigravity energy to take basic geometric shapes like spheres and hoops and envelope anything the wearer decides to manipulate with it.

Lifter can manipulate multiple objects and make them into projectiles though the greater the weight and number of objects the less time it is able to manipulate and move them the quicker the mask drains of energy.

At full power Lifter mask has been shown to be strong enough to halt a crashing airplane and lower it safely to the ground though such a feet causes massive strain on the mask's inner workings as well as the wearer itself.

Lifter can also envelope the wearer in it's energy and allow them to float or fly for short or great distances. At it's maximum energy level Lifter can allow the wearer to fly at a top speed of 400 Mph but only for short burst of speed so it is often used at low speeds to prevent strain on the wearer and the antigravity energy itself can make the wearer light enough to drift and glide with air currents.

Bruce Sato wears a heavily padded and insulated uniform that allows him to withstand air friction and cold temperatures of high altitude flight. The helmet and uniform material can stop most bladed weapons as well as small arms fire.

Lifter mask attaches to the uniform and forms an airtight seal around the wearer and can store an hour of fresh air inside the helmet as well as cycle in and filter fresh air during flight if needed.

Bruce Sato is the pilot of Rhino. A Semi truck that converts into a mobile command center and defense platform. The strongest and most heavily armored vehicle, Rhino is the nerve center of any operation the team is on.

Rhino's sleeper cab is armed with a multi-purpose missile launcher that can fire a number of projectiles that range from lethal to non-lethal depending on what is needed. The airfoil on the cab is a high powered radar dish that is able to track multiple targets as well as send a jamming signal to throw off enemy radar and targeting systems.

The smokestacks on either side of the cab become high powered energy cannons that can be lowered and raised as needed to target enemy vehicles. The cannon blasts are powerful enough to punch through tank armor.

The front grill is actually a three inch thick chrome plated titanium battering ram that can extend in front of the vehicle and smash or pulverize most any obstacle that gets in the way of the vehicle. At top speed Rhino can ram through boulders, and reinforced three foot concrete walls.

The rear half of Rhino can detach and become a small, lightly armored ATV vehicle used for scouting, quick escapes or rapid defense of the main Rhino vehicle if it is unable to move. The ATV can travel at a top speed of 60 MPH for two hours before it needs refueling. The ATV is armed with twin front mounted 50. Cal heavy machine guns that use a use a linkless feed system for ammo. The ATV has a forward mounted camera and can be remote controlled from the main Rhino vehicle and sent on missions unmanned if necessary.

The tires on Rhino and it's ATV are both made of a highly durable puncture resistant rubber. Should a tire be punctured it can be filled with a quick dry sealant to maintain the tires integrity until it can be repaired or replaced.
