Roll to be a Hero

This is an RTD Game where you are part of a Super Hero Team and you fight crime and save the world.

This is a roll to dodge so you bold an action and I roll a d6 to see how it comes out.
1 - Epic Fail
2 - Fail
3 - Partial Sucess
4 - Sucess
5 - Super Sucess
6 - Overshoot

This game will use stats to modify how bad or good it turns out and I won't roll for simple actions.

Background plus a summary of what happened

Spoiler: Prologue: B.U.L.W.A.R.K. (click to show/hide)

Somewhere 1 mile East of Great Bear Lake in a secret underground facility beneath B.U.L.W.A.K.'s headquarters:

Commander Gerald Hatspin, the leader of B.U.L.W.A.R.K. rides a hidden elevator from his office to the sublevels 5 miles beneath the main complex, its a long ride so he reviews the dossiers in his hands, double checking to make sure he has the right ones, he does.  The elevator music is a nice soft jazz, specially picked by the Commander and set to change every so often, just to mix it up.  The elevator dings after about 10 minutes, jolting the Commander from his thoughts.  He exits the elevator and stands before a big door.  He straightens his uniform and adjusts his cap as a voice calls out, "Come in Commander."  Hatspin enters as the voice continues, "I trust you have brought the correct documents."
"Yes sir but I'm a bit confused, out of all the registered powered people why did you request these six?"
"These six are vital to the world, they must be first, both as an example and as a lesson."
"As you wish sir, I'll make the arrangements."
A pair of pure red eyes flash out of the darkness of the room, "Thank you Commander, everything is going as planned, you are dismissed."  With that Commander Gerald Hatspin gathers his papers, salutes and exits the room preparing for the ten minute ride back up to his office.  The voice whispers to himself as Hatspin leaves, "Everything is going as planned."

The date is May 25, 2015, and superpowers are real.  5 years ago to this day superpowers appeared all around the world, at first there were isolated cases, 1 person here another person there, these people were celebrities over night, millions of people clamored over the fact that the heroes they had been reading about were becoming real, comic books rose in popularity as did superhero movies and games.  Everything was all good for the first month and then the first super villain threatened the world, "Alpha". He was defeated but casualties were high.  The world was thrown into a panic, governments made it illegal to have powers, those who use to be celebrities were hated by the masses, those who helped defeat "Alpha" were pardoned, as long as they never used their powers again.  It was a stupid knee jerk reaction.  Then there was B.U.L.W.A.R.K. This fledgling organization took flight almost overnight and calmed the terrified masses, they required anyone with powers to register with them, so they could be called on in times of need, and hunted down if they went rouge.  This system worked for the first 4 years but as more people with powers existed, heroes and villains, something needed to change.  Commander Gerald Hatspin had an idea he kept pushing through the World Congress, create a superhero team, a team under B.U.L.W.A.R.K.'s authority to deal with any problem that might threaten the world.  The people of the World Congress saw no need to create a team as the system they had right now was working out just fine.  Then "Alpha" returned.  B.U.L.W.A.R.K. attempted to call the heroes of the world together to fight the menace but it was an unorganized disaster.  There were too many heroes that ignored the call and those that did didn't have a sound leader and didn't work well together.  "Alpha" was eventually driven off but again the cost was great.  The World Congress saw need of a Super Hero team and rushed the bill through all the red tape.  Hundreds of powered people requested to be part of the team but ultimately six were chosen.  John Harsworth, "Anima," "Magma Man," Rer zeu, Jack, and, 2nd Lt Reika Tamaki were selected to form "Fortune Force" and Rika Tamaki was selected to be the captain.  Fortune Force is based in Montreal, Canada, close the B.U.L.W.A.R.K.'s headquarters but in a city for quicker response times.  There are about 1,000 powered people in the world, heroes, villains, vigilantes.  "Fortune Force" is a step to stabilize a turbulent world, only time will tell if it will succeed.

Can you explain determinator please.

[Pancaek]

basically that, when choosing to do X, he won't stop until X is achieved. Biting through and ignoring all pain and mental anguish. Doesn't mean he won't get damaged of course, just that h e wouldn't notice until the end.

Let me know if he's overpowered.  I thought giving a deadly weakness to being submerged in water might balance him out, but feel free to add any other weaknesses to make him balanced.

You know, the name made me expect him to have tomato-based superpowers.

Ya, originally I gave him ketchup based powers, but then I realized that would be completely useless, so I changed him entirely, except for the name.

(Also I edited his stats to give him better agility instead of strength, since he only has to touch someone to hurt them)

(EDIT2: Oh, thought you were the GM for a minute there)
