Origin

Nathan Mendenhall was raised in Sacramento, California. He was raised by his mother and his father traveled around a lot due to his job. In school, Nathan did exceptionally well, but found himself lacking the motivation to apply himself. After high school, most of Nathan's friends moved away and he got a job working for a local supermarket. Nathan at the time was not attending any extended education, and just made his way to wrok everyday. In July of 2007, Nathan was driving home from work when he witnessed a light crash on the side of the road. At the scene of the crash, Nathan found a small glowing stone. As he made contacted with it, Nathan's hold body began to glow a bright white and he blacked out. Upon awakening the next day, Nathan found that his entire body was rendered invisible except for his clothing.

A few days later, Nathan made his first superhuman act when he rescued a woman from some muggers. The local papers dubbed him as, "Nobody". Nathan took this alias for his superhuman identity. Within a few weeks, Nathan had crafted a special costume to work with his own powers and had become a full time superhero. Within his first few months as a superhero he had a run in wit the superhuman, Captain Hazard. The two of them had an epic battle with took out a decent part of the LA area, but Nathan came out on top and Hazard came out on top.

New Age Outlawz

After his first year of being a superhero, Nathan joined his first superhero team, The New Age Outlawz(NAO). With the NAO, Nathan's name became popular in the superhero community. He was becoming known as one of the greats and was fighting along some of the legends themselves. While with the NAO, Nathan helped battle the Mighty Magneto and his Vine Villains. Eventually the leader of the NAO, Last Arrow, left the team and joined up with the Vine Villians. The team was devistated, but remained strong as Methos took control.

With Methos's help, Nathan was able to design a modern costume. It gave him some added protection and stil worked along with his powers. Nathan stayed with the NAO for many months. But eventnually he too needed to go off on his own. The NAO eventually fell all together after Nathan left, for reasons unknonwn to him.  After leaving the team, Nathan did join up with several other groups, but none of them last long.

Dark Days

After being a hero for so long, Nathan grew tired of his failures and quit being a hero. But the life of a normal person was not one he could live or one that he wanted to live. Taking advantage of his state, Nathan found himself under the influence of the Hellfire Club, and joined their ranks. He quickly rose through the ranks and became the Jack of Hearts. With the Hellfire Club, Nathan did acts that he never dreamed of himself doing. He found that all though he was surrounded by villains, the Hellfire Club treated him like family. But like the rest of the groups Nathan had joined, the Hellfire's Reign of Terror ended and a new breed of evil was born from it.

Nathan found that some members of the old Hellfire Club were forming together once more. Les Assassins Silencieux was not unlike the Hellfire Club, but Nathan found that their connection to him wasn't as strong as it was before. He grew apart from what he thought was a family and his eyes were opened to what he was doing. Realizing his errors, Nathan fled off for a few weeks, not knowing what he should be doing.

Ice Dragons

After escaping the grasp of his dark allies, Nathan found himself confused and wanting to redeem himself for his mistakes. Without question, one of his good allies, Andferne, remembered him and took him in as a member of his own team, the Ice Dragons. With the Ice Dragons, Nathan found purpose again. He made some new allies as well as united with old ones. Nathan once again felt like he belonged to not just a team but a family.

But like all of his past teams, the Ice Dragons were not going to last. For reasons out of Nathan's control, Andferne disbanded the team and went missing for awhile. After the Ice Dragons broke up, Nathan followed several of the members in the team Generation Next, leaded by Hawk and LstPaladin.  The team while having strong members, seemed less effective than Ice Dragons and too split up before too long. Nathan found himself without a place to call home, he returned to California and went solo for awhile.

Dark Reign

After going solo for a few months, Nathan found that his powers were beginning to weaken almost to the point that he didn't have them. Worried that he couldn't handle him he stopped fighting crime until he could regain control of his powers. When he came back on the scene, a monster named Doomsday attacked and the government decided it was time to form a team of their own. Coming to Nathan, they asked him to take second in command of this team while the villain, Gambler, would be leading it. Nathan struggled at first with the discision to work under Gambler once more, but realized that it was what needed to be done in order to protect people. It was a different world and he knew you either adapted with it or you die.

Upon joining the team, Nathan was taken to Sector 13 where he was introduce to Agent Anderson. Anderson set up a meeting with out heroes to explain the situtation. Like Nathan, they felt it hard to trust Gambler, but eventually they too realized they needed him. Gambler not trust Anderson, sent Nathan to spy on him. But while Nathan was trailing him, he found that his powers were wearing out once more and then were completely gone. Scared and confused, Nathan knew there was one man in Sector 13 who could give Nathan the life he craved. The life of a hero.

Powers

After being made into a super soldier by Sector 13, Nathan made him a wide range of powers and equipment that allow him to become a powerful living weapon.

Strength

As Marvel Knight, Nathan's strength was greatly increased beyond the human limit. At his full strength Nathan is able to lift roughly 25 tons over his head, making him able to lift objects such has cars. His strength also also him to have an strong grip an jump far than a normal human can.

Speed

Nathan has too levels of speed, which make him a very hard opponent. On average Nathan is able to run at about 65 mph and is quick enough that he can easily avoid bullets. When Nathan goes into his "White Out" his speed increase allowing him to reach up to 100 mph and and increase his reflexes even more.

Superhuman Fingernails

One of  the abilities Nathan gained through the super soldier experiment was to extend his fingernails and have the explode with incredible force. The process is through will, Nathan's fingernail grows out about two to three inches and begins to glow a yellowish color. He then stabs the nail into an object and/or person and it detaches in them. Within a few seconds they explode with the force to destroy steel. While Nathan's claws are extended they can cut through almost any material that is weaker than steel. Recently, Nathan has shown that instead of exploding his fingernails can release a toxin which will cause his  foe to black out for a various time periods.

Superhuman Digestion

Nathan's digustive system has been enhanced that it can digest almost anything that is put into his system. While his body is digesting, it lets him regain some of his stamina as well as increases his healing factor for a brief period of time. He only uses this ability in extreme conditions.

Nanotechnology

Running through Nathan's system are small nanotechnology have gives him several abilities. The first aspect of the Nanotechnology is that if some sort of technology is trying to manipulate his body in someway, he can override it and even control it. Nathan is also able to release these through his saliva. By doing this he cann render computer systems useless and can even cause hallucinations if his saliva lands on somebody.

Wall-Crawling

Wall-Cling

Through small adhesive hairs that cann extend through his skin, Nathan is able to cling to the side of surfaces, even ceilings. His grip with his hairs are incredible strong and he can still hold up to 10 tons while clinging to another surface.

Triple-Jointed

Nathan's body has been made one of the most flexible bodies in the world. This allows himself to get into near imposible positions and remain in the for extended periods of time without injury or even strain to his body.

White Out

Possibly Nathan's most important ability is Nathan's White Out. This is a state of mind that he enters where his mind is focused on a single task and everything else is blocked out from his mind. Nathan is not able to feel pain or emotion while in White Out and his physical abilities seem to increase even higher than their normal levels. While in his White Out mode Nathan's mind becomes more resistant to telepathy, but is not immune. It is unknown how long the White Out will last when Nathan goes in it, but depending on how long he is it it depends on the strain it puts on his body.

Equipment

Not only did Sector 13 make Nathan a living weapon, but they equipped him with some of the most advanced technology around. These include his Amor, Guantlets, and Boots.

Genesis Armor

The Genesis Armor is a one of a kind Armor designed by Sector 13 scientist and based off Nathan's original costume. This advanced suit is skin tight and every flexible, but is also laced with a protective metal under it. The metal lacing is just as flexible as any cloth, but it gives Nathan some added protection. It allows him to take shots head on from small firearms as well as not direct hits from some heavier artillery. This suit is link to Nathan's thoughts and through thinking a protective helmet and shoulder pads can be forms. The shoulder pads are stronger than the rest of the costume, but take away from its flexibility. The helmet not only add to Nathan's protection, but can also grant him Night Vision and Infrared Vision, if need be.

Genesis Gauntlets

Worn on each wrist are two very strong gauntlets. Nathan uses they to protect himself in close combat, but they also serve another purpose. Like his Geneis Armor, the gauntlets are linked to his thoughts are arm able to take a brief liquid like state as they shape shift. The gauntlets are able to take a several different shapes of  plasma guns and even bladed weapons..

Genesis Boots

Genesis Boots

Like the other parts of Nathan's suit, the boots are too linked to his thoughts allowing them to activate when needed. Unlike the other two parts of the suit, the boots don't change their shape, but allow Nathan to fly via jets under them. At full speed the jets allow Nathan to travel at the speed of sound.
