History

After leaving University, Ed Hunter was placed into a specialised program, run by a private contractor. Leaving his home in Kent, just outside of London, he was sent to the United states and put through a number of stringent tests. Along with a number of other Scientist, he was placed into a Government program which tested not only his knowledge of his degree, through hours of interviews and forced knowledge digging, they put him, along with the other scientists through tests - which changed their makeup.

During his time working for this agency, before they began to turn their experimentation inwards, Ed was seduced by concepts that haunted his brain. As he tried to complete his “research” into Haptic camouflage based on Mullerian and Batesian mimicry. He gave the military and government hundreds of ideas, including the possibility of secondary and tertiary nervous systems. He was responsible for a number of body twisting experiments on people in the military itself, which he feels more than responsible for. As the experiments on him reached a fever pitch he became more and more entrenched into socio-psionic ideals, writing down books worth of information in Meme’s, and Artificial Psionic’s. His memory began to break down, and he eventually escaped - Or Was released. He can’t remember.

Now a rogue scientist, working from an old warehouse, he cobbles together concepts and ideas to help him finish his “Neon Bible.” A book similar to his hero, Charles Darwin’s, Origin of Species. He hopes to completely re-catalogue the ecology and memetic fields of the Urban world and apply it to the Natural-World model.

Currently powerless, the only things working for him is putting forth the idea, through a form of aggressive memetic targeting, that he doesn’t exist.

Equipment:

Neon Bible - Containing Chapters and information he’s typed up and hand written, taped together and held loosely by an ill fitting cover, the Neon Bible covers the natural selection and evolution of the Urban environment, detailing the ecological hierarchy ranging from the very low streets and side-walks to the Sky-scrapers and train systems and how they inter-grate and work within each other’s confines.
At present the fire-arm that Ed has designed is laying within a drawer in a large filing cabinet within the warehouse dubbed “The Weapons Chest”

Special Skills/Powers:

Degree: Zoology
Level: 2:1

Parkour: Ed wields the efficient energy-using form of urban gymnastics and incorporates the urban martial art tricking into it, allowing him to perform base jumps, leaps across buildings and traversing the urban environment with little energy, as well as using his environment and jumps as offensive weapons.

Unique thinker: Put very simply, there is something wrong with his brain. After an “experience” with a lover at University, something went very wrong inside of his head. He now thinks in a way that is difficult for others to understanding, mostly choosing to focus it through science and high-concepts. It means he can process things most normal people can't, and thinks of ideas most normal people pass up. It also means he gets confused easily, and has a predeliction for psychological problems, including Agoraphobia, and Paranoia.

The Arm: The arm is made from artificial musculature forged from smart fullerene and Carbon-Nano tubing. It makes him extremely strong, able to knock off a humans head with ease, but it means if he hits anything harder than a bed, he’d break his arm and probably rip it out of it’s socket. As a result of his, his arm is more for show than anything else.

Weaknesses:

Ed suffers from most normal human weaknesses. His mental outlook means he gets confused quite easily, leading to disorientation, especially in built up areas. Months of living alone have given him mild agoraphobia, except when he's wearing his mask, and paranoia, as well as an unhealthy reliance on the Neon Bible for information and guidance, when it is literally, his mental mind scribbling down tattered and tenuous links. Eds brain is wrecked, it has massive holes in it where it was completely restructured. His biology has been changing a great deal as well, he can’t leave the Urban environment without it becoming extremely uncomfortable for him. His brain is full of hardware, the scientists having pulled about the internal parts and folds of his brain and replaced it with software.
