Personality

Considers himself funny.<ref name="25.1"> - Excerpt from Scarab 25.1</ref> He works well with Golem,<ref name="26.2 e1" /><ref name="25.4 e1" /> and helped him develop his powers.<ref name="26.2 e2">No, his focus was on escape. He thrust both hands into two different panels, slightly out of sync. One hand was created, almost twice the usual size, and another was simultaneously created from the palm of that same hand, a fraction smaller.

Campanile’s idea.

Both hands thrust out at virtually the same speed that Golem might have stuck his own hand out into the air, but that speed was compounded by the fact that both hands thrust out in unison. Golem set one foot down and vaulted himself up and out to land on the adjacent building, one story up. He spun around as he landed. - Excerpt from Sting 26.2</ref>

Appearance

Campanile stands at eight feet in height and wears a skintight suit.

Abilities and Powers

Campanile is described as having the ability to grow to enormous heights alongside an aura that alters gravity.<ref name="list">Campanile Giant growth with gravity altering aura. Wards - Parahuman List, bolded edit by Wildbow.</ref> Depending on how he can alter his aura this gives him battlefield control and the ability for him to move faster then he should for a being his size.

History

Background

He was a recent graduate from the Wards.<ref name="25.4 e1">The young girl gave a small wave, “So nice to meet you. We had the team here before, but you guys have definitely changed things up since. Campanile was the team leader then.”

“Campanile graduated to the Protectorate a little while ago,” Tecton said. “He said to say hi.”

[...]

“And Golem? I can almost guess. When Campanile appeared in the evening news, he had some promising words to say about the Protectorate’s newest member. When we asked him who the most promising new recruit in the Wards was, he named you.”

“Ah,” Golem said. “Yeah.”

“Do you think you can live up to that?”

“I hope I can,” Golem said. - Excerpt from Scarab 25.4</ref>

Post-Echidna

Was held in reserve for when Weaver led the Wards against the The Folk.<ref name="25.4 e1">“Shortly. PRT trucks are already en route and will be standing by, when they’re not actively transporting your teammates. Campanile, Brazier, Shuffle and Gauss will be a short distance away, but they won’t engage unless this goes belly-up. This is your show. You and the Wards. Quite a few people hoping you guys can pull this off. A handful hoping you fail.” - Excerpt from Scarab 25.3</ref>

Timeskip

Helped Golem develop his power, and showed up on the news with him.<ref name="26.2 e1">In the midst of a small duplex, there were two young women huddled together on an upper floor. There were computers arranged around them, and each was playing a different video. In some cases, it was the same video playing, just from a different point in time. Me in the lunchroom with Defiant and Dragon. The New Delhi Endbringer fight. Golem on the news with Campanile.

She had to be almost as good a multitasker as me to take all of that in. - Excerpt from Sting 26.2</ref>

Trivia

• The characters name comes from an old word for a belltower.
