Overview

The Controller is at the same time the weakest and yet the most powerful of the hero Archetypes. The Controller has few offensive attacks and possesses the fewest Hit Points. But the Controller has access to a range of powers that no one else does. Armed with these powers, a Controller can affect the behavior of villains, from freezing them in place, to putting them to sleep, to routing them away. Armed with such abilities, the Controller is the backbone for any super group, but the Controller often depends upon teammates for protection.
