Expirment lists Juicer as an acceptable option. Ok word. Experiment is able to MegaHero. MegaHero has that nifty power of Immortality.
So technically a MegaHero experiment could become....wait FOR it ...an IMMORTAL JUICER.

probably dragon juicer. Don't think the normal stuff would work on an immortal. Means you gotta keep getting blood from prickly lizards. Good luck.

Might not kill ya, but withdraws gotta be a pain when you run outta juice. Being a addict is rough.

It's actually possible and legal. I was like dang 'Surge just got new enemies. Since I am using Rmb I added the dodge bonuses to the Autododge. I also had the mega weakness be god syndrome. Juicers are arrogant I imagine ones that cant die to be even worse. Bored I rolled up a battle yea it took five to dust PowerSurge.....

With the most time s/he can stay alive in one stretch be 5 years.

However, I would put some chaos in the revival time and a multiplier if it is the 5[sup]th[/sup] year death.

Maybe I should do the 5th as severe damage taking a full century to revive. I'm limiting these Immortal Juicers to npc villians for now. I was think undead but MurderWraiths already exist. I may have them be AI creations since technically they are supernatural creatures.

We're given the indication that we merely need necro+techno to make them. Some necros worship Death though, and the Horsemen are effectively 1/4 AI (Death can even make witches) so I'd just go with that. The Grim Reapers are behind the Wraiths and they're full of Deathwitches.

Uh, the supersoldier category from PU2 has a juicer option(it's called a chemical enhancement something or other, but it's a juicer).
Plus you get the supersoldier enhancements, so you can be faster that a mere juicer, and a megasupersoldier would be even moer awesome than a mega-experament juicer.

Storyline wise. The Pantheon is only two members. Nephelonious and his grandson Desmond.

What on earth is a "juicer"? I don't play any Palladium except HU and N&SS.

It's a slang term for one of the Powers Unlimited 2 Super Soldier options - the "Chemical Enhancement" option.

The Chemical Enhancment Soldier is basically the Juicer from Rifts.

Actually... there already is an "immortal" Juicer... even in the Rifts setting. The Murder Wraith... now there is a great recurring villain for a HU game (though technically he would have the Undead Mega Power/Vulnerability rather than Immortal... but why quibble on such details).
There are three types of people in the world; those who can count and those who can't.

As a GM I'd say that the immortality mega power goes against the concept of the Juicer, that one would cancel out the other. If you end up immortal it basically kicks out your juicer stuff. Or if you want the juice, you choose a different mega power.

I go with the intended concept over obscure rule work arounds. The Juicer is meant to die in a few years, as a consequence for their amazing power over that 'short' duration. Finding a technical loop hole in rules that are there just to give mechanics to the concept doesn't work for me.

in context its more correct as:
grandpa told desmond to get rid of the asgardian, and then as an additional thought that the grandkid should call his mom.

Murder Wraiths, immortal juicer...Nope.
But if you had said undead juicer you would of been mostly correct.

Translating a MW to HU2 as a mega hero would involve the Undead MH power (the undeath major power from ¿R2?, not the MH immortality power.
