Sanctaphrax:
Technically speaking, The North Pole violates the rules for foci. But the rule that it violates is totally insignificant, so it's alright.

Samael:
I think my main issue with the character is the idea that Captain America is the pinnacle of humanity. Meaning his skills should go no higher then Superb (though he should have several of them there) with stunts boosting things like his weapons and athletics. Likewise I would not say he has the Inhuman Powers as again he is the Pinnacle of Humanity but he does not surpass it. I would suggest getting rid of the powers (except the Shield) and giving him tons of Fate Points to reflect his adaptability.

Katarn:
Yea- I wanted to emphasize his physical abilities, but I guess Inhuman is too much.  Look better?

Samael:
Much better, nice job.
