Secretly, Ra's al Ghul also intended that the final clone might be of use to him in case bodily transference were necessary to prolong his life further. Though Talia might have had ideas for Damian to one day replace her father, Ra's shared no such sentiments. Accelerated growth allowed scientists to study the anticipated development of the developing embryo, and make any recommended genetic changes in utero based on observation. When no longer required or when displaying undesirable qualities, the clone would be terminated and a new replacement requisitioned from the current genetic model. The replacement was then age accelerated and implanted with artificial memories in order to step into the training program where its predecessor had failed.[/indent] [b]MY SO CALLED LIFE | SEPTEMBER 2013-MARCH 2014[/b] [indent]He lived only six months, believing it to have been ten years. Replacing the fifth clone of Damian al Ghul-Wayne, [b]Six[/b] was 'born' at the level of physical and psychological growth commensurate to a nine-and-a-half years old child. Implanted with artificial memories, the clone resumed the physical and mental conditioning program where his predecessor had left off. He was wielded as a weapon and a tool by [b]Mother[/b], the only name by which he knew the woman Talia al Ghul. In return, she was stern and direct in her tasking of him, admonishing each mistake and tolerating no failure. Six was brought to Gotham City as a sniper on an assignment of low enough priority as to suit being utilized as a training operation. The League had applied pressure to renown scientist [b]Umataro Tenma[/b] to provide certain technology to the League. When he refused, it was decided that a message needed to be sent. Dr. Tenma's wife had died in childbirth, but their son had survived and was Tenma's only family. While Tenma had the child with him in Gotham, the League intended to murder the boy. Except that Six refused the order, and begged Mother to reconsider. Disgusted by the display of [i]weakness[/i], Talia turned the gun on the likeness of her own son, shooting him through the throat with a single shot. The death was presumed to be gang related. The body was never identified or claimed, and then buried in a municipal cemetery outside of Gotham.[/indent] [b]HELL AND BACK AGAIN | MARCH 2016[/b] [indent]He descended into [b]Hell[/b]. It might have been the third day. It might have been the day after tomorrow. Time has no meaning here. The thing about Hell is that it isn't a single place, or even a single realm. Like Dante's [i]Inferno[/i], it exists on a multitude of levels, each controlled by its own group of lords, devils, demons, or other [b]primordial entities[/b] whose mere existence defies the mortal imagination. As one such creature, the Devil [b]Malebolgia[/b] had challenged the other so-called Princes of Hell by creating creatures, known as [b]Hellspawns[/b], composed of souls infused with necroplasm to serve as his own personal army against both heaven and hell. Hela and Mephisto likewise had their own champions, in the form of the [b]Dsir[/b] and the [b]Ghost Rider[/b] respectively. [b]Klarion[/b], one of the Lords of Chaos, the primordial creatures of eld, decided to do likewise. Whether to legitimately challenge the Princes of Hell for his own ends, or merely to feed the chaos and instability in Hell... only Klarion could have said what his exact motivations were. Brokering a deal with the Devil [b]Mammon[/b], insinuating some kind of alliance between the Lords of Chaos and the Lord of Greed and Avarice. Mammon supplied the necroplasm from the Malebolge, Klarion supplied the power to merge it with a human soul. But this deal would require a host. To find a suitable soul, Klarion searched along the [b]Phlegethon[/b], the river of blood. Along the shores of Purgatory, he found the most unlikely of souls in the form of a blood-stained child. Taking the boy from out Purgatory and into the Garden of Avarice, Klarion skillfully befriended and beguiled the young and confused soul until he'd discovered what had led to his death. Six made a deal with Klarion, one which allowed him power with which to go back and protect [b]Toby Tenma[/b], the child that Talia al Ghul had sent Six to kill. A pact made, the bargain struck, Klarion completed the ritual -- bonding Six and C'thu -- and sent the newly forged Hellspawn back to the mortal realm. Klarion did fulfill his word. Each letter, in point of fact. He gave Six power with which to protect the boy, and sent him back to Earth so that he might accomplish that goal. However, Klarion sent Six back to Earth by way of [b]the River Lethe[/b], which causes people to forget their previous lives. As a result, Six returned with no memories of who he was or why he was there.[/indent] [b]ANGELS AND DEMONS | APRIL 2016[/b] [indent]Awakening in a graveyard, Six wandered aimlessly until he came across a pack of hellhounds that were chasing a ghost. Intervening, Six was subsequently introduced to both Casper McFadden and Hot Stuff. The two became like two halves of his own forgotten conscience, revealing pieces of himself to him. Hot Stuff in particular had an interest in Six, identifying him as a Hellspawn who had made a deal in Hell and had accepted a commission in Hell's Army as a result. At the behest of Casper, Six sought out Wendy the Good Witch, crossing into Gotham's crime alley, and was able to recover some of his memories. The four traveled to Gotham Academy, where they were unable to prevent Toby Tenma from being assassinated by a rogue angel, during which Six was teleported back to Hell and met his supposed overlord, Mammon. Revealing that the bargain struck had been that Six would be given an opportunity to go back and save Toby Tenma, Mammon ruled that their deal was complete and Six's servitude in Hell was to begin. Back on Earth, Hot Stuff offered to aid Wendy and Casper in their efforts to retrieve the Hellspawn from out of the bowels of Hell. Introducing them to Klarion the Witch Boy, who augmented Wendy's magic with his own, the group was successful in teleporting Six back to Earth. Exposing Mammon's bargain as a hoax, Klarion stated that he would be willing to help shelter the Hellspawn and his friends from Hell's wrath... for a price. A small pittance, really. Just a few favors now and again. And so the Hellspawn finds himself in a web of deception. Klarion double-crossing Mammon. Mammon attempting to usurp Klarion. Hot Stuff working for both, or neither. And Six stuck in the middle.[/indent] [b]| [color=crimson]SUPPORTING CAST[/color] |[/b] [indent][b]Hot Stuff[/b] the Little Devil Both the [i]Clown[/i] and [i]Cogliosto[/i] to Six's [i]Simmons[/i], Hot Stuff is a child-like devil who ostensibly works for either Mammon or Klarion, but like so many agents of Hell appears to have either his own agenda or else is merely an agent of anarchy.[/indent] [indent]Casper McFadden ([b]Casper[/b] the Friendly Ghost) The disembodied spirit of a young British boy who lived in the American Colonies and died prior to the War for Independence, he often serves as the voice of Six's conscience.[/indent] [indent]Wendy Markowski ([b]Wendy[/b] the Good Witch) The adopted, orphan daughter of the Three Witches (Thelma, Velma, and Zelma), Wendy is a young witch who struggles to perform the dark arts but has an innate talent for white magic.[/indent] [indent]Dr. [b]Shondra Kinsolving[/b], MD A physician operating a free clinic inside Gotham's so-called Crime Alley.[/indent] [indent]Lori Zechlin ([b]Black Alice[/b]) A teenage student at the Gotham Academy, with a chip on her shoulder and a personal vendetta in the War on Drugs.

He is effectively powerless, and mortal, when in the Heavenly realm. • As necroplasm is denser than human bone or tissue, Six weighs several hundred pounds more than he otherwise appears, making his body more durable than that of an ordinary mortal. This also contributes to his strength to a degree. • Six's symbiote is known as [b]K-9 C'thu[/b]. • Six gets around in a 1974 Ford Pinto, which he calls the [b]Red Bird[/b]. • Because of the manner of his death and resurrection, Six has a permanent wound in the form of a bullet entry and exit wound at the base and back of his neck.[/indent]
