The Superhero Database Classification number, or SHDB Class, is a number that represents the overall 'power' of a character. All traits of a character are used for calculating the Classification.
What it DOESN'T mean
This doesn't mean that a higher class would always beat a lower class character. But the bigger the difference in Class is, the more obvious it is who'll win in a fight.
How is this calculated
( INT^1.3 + (STR*0.5 )^2 + (SPE*0.5)^2 + DUR^1.6 + (POW + (SPS*SPL))^2 + COM^1.8 ) ^ TIER
Super Power Score and Level
Every Super Power has a score (SPS) that is used to calculate the Class. Each Super Power also has 3 levels (SPL). The level is set when connecting that Super Power to a character. The level determines the final score, of the Super Power, being used in the calculation.
At first glance, Johan seems well-mannered, charismatic and kind. But that's just a facade. Deep down he is a psychopath who finds fun in manipulating and destroying others. He has no regard for human life and sees most people as insignificant. He commits premeditated murder, but seems to have no clear motive beyond causing suffering. Instead of killing people directly, he likes to make them feel extreme loss, sadness and despair, which often leads them to kill themselves. He did this to Helmut Wolf. As a child, he displayed psychopathic tendencies, even before the traumatic events at the Kinderheim orphanage where he caused a massacre. His dark side is that he takes pleasure in corrupting and destroying others through manipulation and chaos. Many of his actions seem to stem from a simple curiosity to see how far he can push people. Beneath his charming personality lies a complete disregard for human empathy, emotions and morality. He is portrayed as almost inhumanly sinister and dangerous due to his high intelligence and lack of conscience.
