[b]Ability(ies):[/b]
[list][*] [b][u]"Digestive Assimilation"[/u] -[/b] Lauden has the ability to gain the properties of eaten things. Lauden can consume objects or individuals of choice to gain the properties and attributes of the object or individual by eating them. The more Lauden eats something the more of its properties he can take. There are a few caveats to what he can consume. Namely that he can’t consume energy, and with animals/people the meat must be as unprocessed to get the full benefit. 
[*] [b][u]"Body Supremacy"[/u] -[/b] After eating several humans, Lauden gained a instinctive understanding of his own body. Using this, he now has complete and total control over his own bodily capabilities, both biologically (e.g., muscles, bones, veins, neurons, etc.) and systematically (e.g., reflexes, instincts, coordination, psychomotor movement, etc.); being able to move athletically and acrobatically with remarkable grace in conjunction of sustaining a willful enhancement of his own biological systems to maximize their performance.
[*] [b][u]"Bio-Smoke Control"[/u] -[/b] After consuming a Metahuman he gained this ability. Lauden can channel his bio-energy field to create, control, and manipulate smoke. This also includes matter that composes smoke, such as particulate solids and liquids, like ash, and burnt solid material that contains residual heat. He can create smoke from his body and employs it in a number of ways to become a fearsome opponent. [/list]

[b]Physical Description:[/b] Lauden is a tall skinny man. In modern times, is often seen in his signature white suit before he was arrested. ​His skin is ashen white, seeming as a result of his time in the Realm of Ashen Night. His teeth elongated and eyes red with black sclera. His fingers end in sharp claws. Overall Lauden looks pretty menacing. 

[b]Procedure:[/b] A small bomb screwed into the base of his skull, and a length of detonation cord has been surgically wrapped around his spine. Should Lauden go rogue, they are to be triggered, giving Lauden a pretty quick death. 
On a more day to day side of things, Lauren’s diet is strictly controlled. Fed only a bland heavily processed soy based paste to prevent the development of any new abilities. Aside from that, he is kept isolated generally to prevent him from “taking any bites out of other inmates. 
It should also be noted that when entering Lauden’s cell personnel should wear fire resistant clothing. The door is rigged to shut if the smoke detectors in the room go off. Requiring a departmental supervisor to open it again. 

[b]History:[/b] Lauden Therington was born to rich parents in 1812 London. His early life was pretty stock standard. He grew up to be a physician. His life took a drastic turn when he was in his late twenties. He was walking home late at night after making a house call to a long time client. Lauden wasn’t quite sure what had happened, but one minute he was in the streets of London, the next he was in a desert made of ash, where it was perpetually twilight with a storm of red lightning overhead. Lauden spent decades there. Wandering the wasteland on the verge of death. His body changing as a mysterious energy of the “Realm of Ashen Night” penetrated his body. He didn’t even question how he had stayed alive for so long without food or water. Something about how time passed differently within the Ashen Night. 
One day he gave up. He just law down in the middle of a storm. As the wind pushed the ash up over him, he closed his eyes. When he opened them, he was greeted by modern day Montreal with an insatiable hunger. 
He started a murder and cannibalism spree that quickly garnered the attention of law enforcement. 
When they found him he was smocking a cigarette on a hotel balcony in a bathrobe while a body was opened up on the bed missing more then half of the organs. He didn’t put up a fight when the arrested him.
