the Chameleon Swamp Skier

Zartan's Chameleon, a small, high-powered swamp skier, is built from lightweight, polycarbonate materials (m.s. 9), possesses high strength front and rear skis, and of course, a handy 212-A microjet rocket engine for significant speed. This curiously green water vehicle has these vehicular capabilities:

Blending (a): thanks to the veritable magic of Zartan's holographic technology, the Chameleon has the ability to blend in with its surroundings, much like its creator can. This power works at intensity 10, but does not function when the vehicle is actually moving (since it does so rather fast...!).

Pre-Fab Construction (a): another handy feature that was worked into the design of the Chameleon is its ability to be quickly broken down into its component units, for fast storage, transport, or disguise purposes; it can quite easily be mistaken for a pile of scrap metal in its disassembled state.

Ink Jets (i): when Zartan (or anybody else driving this thing) wants to avoid persistent pursuit, they can simply activate the twin rear-facing, wide dispersal ink jets on the back of the Chameleon. These create a black cloud that obscures vision with intensity 10 ability - and stings the eyes like nobody's business.

Lightning Speed (a): after a fashion, the Chameleon has this power at intensity 3, since it seems capable of speeds ranging between 60 and 75 miles per hour while skimming about on the surface of water. This can be very dangerous in a swamp, however...!

Water Cannon (a): working with what was available, Zartan built a front-facing, high capacity water jet into the Chameleon, in order to waylay any opponents in front of him. This cannon inflicts +4 concussive damage with each burst, and can clear objects in the Chameleon's path in a jiffy.
