Origin[]
Alain Robert is an urban climber known for his various climbs up famous skyscrapers such as the Eiffel Tower, Petronas Twins Towers, Sydney Opera House and Burj Khalifa, all of varying legality. He has been arrested, jailed and fined many times for illegal climbs, twice at the Petronas Towers. Known as the French Spider-Man, most of his climbs include no safety equipment, with only his sneakers and a bag of chalk to enhance his grip. He has fallen seven times throughout his career.
Effects[]
When rubbed on the hands, they enhance the user's grip on anything they touch. The user’s handgrip and adhesion are exponentially increased, allowing them to scale walls with ease. It works best on concrete and steel, although they work just as well on wooden and glass structures. The user will experience a strong need for climbing the nearest building, even if it is illegal.
