Design Notes
This is Man-Bull a Daredevil enemy. Offensively and Defensively he is PL 8.5 due to his Uncontrolled Deterioration. William Taurens, also known as 'Bull Taurus", started his criminal career at a young age. He has been in and out of prison many times for crimes such as manslaughter, grand larceny, assault, and arson to name a few. His reputation was noticed by Mister Klein who employed him. Klein was using criminals to round up subjects to use an experimental serum on. Daredevil foiled Taurens attempt to kidnap someone. Mister Klein decided to use the serum on Taurens instead since he didn't bring any subjects. The serum was based on mutated enzymes from bulls. The serum transformed Taurens into the Man-Bull. Man-Bull has fought Daredevil many times and blames him for his transformation.
Man-Bull is a jobber but a dangerous one. He did beat Daredevil one time and he thought he killed him. He did cause some steers to stampede on one occasion but it could have been the animals' instinct, but I gave him the animal empathy advantage anyway. I got the idea for his horns from Thorp's build. So he can disarm a weapon with his horns as a reaction on a successful defend action. Plus they are dangerous which is just another word for improved critical in M&M terms. Man-Bull is normally a PL 8 character but his 'Uncontrolled Deterioration' makes him PL 8.5. He had this when he went up against the Gray Hulk one time. One comic mentions he is a ladies' man. He normally does not seem very persuasive but I would consider this a complication for the woman. A woman who likes big hairy men with bull-like qualities.
