Respect Holden Carver
Holden Carver a.k.a. The Conductor (though he hates this codename) was a member of I.O. Special Forces who was exposed to an artifact from The Bleed which fused to his nervous system, killing his team and granting him a healing factor, immunity to most psychics, and the ability to transfer pain, but not feel it. Today, we're going to run through what makes him such a fearsome agent.
