In more recent times there has been conflict within Serbia over the independence of Kosovo and Montenegro, and there is still unsettled frustrations within its borders - perfect fruit for an Uberworld character.
The CIA World Factbook has the following information on Serbia:
Official Name: Republic of Serbia
Government: Republic
Capital: Belgrade
Population: 7,379,339
Ethnic Groups: Serb 82.9%, Hungarian 3.9%, Romany (Gypsy) 1.4%, Yugoslavs 1.1%, Bosniaks 1.8%, Montenegrin 0.9%, other 8% (2002 census)
Major Languages: Serbian 88.3% (official), Hungarian 3.8%, Bosniak 1.8%, Romany (Gypsy) 1.1%, other 4.1%, unknown 0.9% (2002 census)
note: Romanian, Hungarian, Slovak, Ukrainian, and Croatian all official in Vojvodina
With over seven million people, Serbia should have an uberhuman population of around 7. There is a team of young uberhumans operating within Serbia known as The Serbian Six. The team were created by Milosevic's scientists and seek to return Serbia and the other former countries of Yugoslavia back into a united country - preferably under their control.
Step One: Serbia
Step Two: (2) Single Character
Step Three: (6.2) Male
Step Four: (4.4) Villain
Step Five: (4) Energy Projector (Edit: Cool, I can use my Ultimate Energy Blaster book!)
Step Six: (6.4) 600 Points (400 Base + 200 Disadvantages)
Step Seven: (4) 8XP
Step Eight: (6.3) Silver Age
Silver Age... that puts it around mid-1950s to early 1970s in the time of science. After the Second World War Yugoslavia was a communist state under Tito, but the country was able to have contact with the West as well as the Soviet bloc.
As a villain this guy may have been aligned with the Soviets, although the Uberworld Soviets didn't really like Ubers. Perhaps they managed to link a man with a nuclear missile or something so he wasn't an uberhuman, but rather a regular soldier used as an experiment. Sounds good enough to me, although I'd say this guy ultimately paid the price and didn't live a very happy life.
