His face often is a mix of twisted insanity and slyness, his wide eyes glaring at his opposer - only a few minutes staring at his sick expression is enough to make a man cower in fear. When not on the job, Cole will be seen in black trousers, with a chain hanging from his right hip. His shirts include short-sleeved or vest like shirts, in a a variety of different designs that reflect his mischievous side. He also sometimes wears hoodies, and these are mainly black or grey. When [i]on[/i] the job, however, it's an entirely different story. He sports [url=http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/181577745084-0-1/s-l1000.jpg]trousers similar to his casual ones[/url], and wears a long, black trenchcoat and silver chain necklace. These are accompanied by a grey waistcoat and white shirt. If in battle, he will remove his trenchcoat, leaving only his chain and waistcoat, and often rolls the sleeves of his shirt up, revealing part of his [url=http://www.chronicinktattoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Chest-to-half-sleeve-dragon-tattoo.jpg]dragon tattoo[/url].[/center] [center][h2]Beneath The Surface[/h2] [u][b]Personality[/b][/u] Cole's personality isn't really beneath the surface - his exterior reflects it all. Due to a freak accident in a lab (he was previously a physicist), he was sent insane by an untested serum to aid mental illness. This made him lose memory of his past, and literally become a new person. However, it had a downside, as he was lost on his own with no idea of who he was. An anonymous organization found him, however, and helped him to harness his new powers that the serum had also gave him, along with twisting his personality to cause even more fear in the hearts of his enemies. Now, he is considered an insane criminal mastermind, with a twisted humour that is enough to make anyone wretch. His cold, crazy stare practically renders his powers useless, due to the fact it can make a man scared to death or even insane himself. This doesn't help when it's matched with his torturous, violent nature, and his joy in seeing others suffer. Furthermore, he is incredibly manipulative and will torture you relentlessly until you give him what he wants. Overall, he is a twisted man, spat on by higher society.[/center] [center][h2]What Makes Me Special[/h2] [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] Cole's powers match perfectly with his personality. He has the ability to inflict fear upon his opponents, and even make them attack their teammates out of fear that they'd be betrayed by them. A higher rate of this power is that, if enough fear is inflicted, he has the chance to even turn somebody insane, or make them commit suicide. Another one of the abilities he has gained is that he has incredibly fast reaction time. He could probably catch a bullet if he concentrated hard enough. [u][b]Equipment[/b][/u] Cole carries a dart gun, and takes it with him everywhere. The ammunition for it is:[list] [*] 17x Sleep Darts[list] [*] Causes the victim to sleep for 10 - 30 minutes[/list] [*] 9x Poison Darts[list] [*] Causes the victim to die within 3 minutes[/list] [*] 10x Hallucination Darts[list] [*] Causes the victim to hallucinate their worst nightmare[/list][/list] He also carries fifteen throwing knifes, five with the sleep effect, five with the poison effect and five with the hallucination effect. [u][b]Strengths[/b][/u] [list] [*] A tough egg to crack. [*] Very agile and capable of outrunning most people. [*] Can take down three people at a time. [*] Incredible reaction time. [*] Able to pinpoint the weaknesses in a person if he gets to know them. [/list] [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] [list] [*] If tired out enough, his combat is incredibly weak. [*] Even though he has the capacity to, he cannot catch bullets. [*] Though able to withstand mental torture, physical torture overpowers him after thirty minutes. [*] If his memories are restored, he would more than likely commit suicide. [*] His violent nature can get the best of him. [/list][/center] [center][h2]Skeletons In The Closet[/h2] [u][b]History[/b][/u] Cole Joseph Erickson once had the perfect life, surprisingly. He was a physicist, had a loving wife, two children (with one on the way), and a $3,000 check in the post addressed to him due to his work on a life changing serum. The serum, once completed, was going to be able to cure the mentally ill. The first few days of testing hadn't been all successful, however, and they lost three subjects in total. However, on the sixth day, something tragic happened. The test subject broke free of his restraints and stabbed Cole with his own serum. This caused his brain to be disfigured, and it sent him clinically insane and made him incredibly violent. However, the serum also drained his memory of his past life, leaving him no clue of who he was or why he was there. His family had gone down to the labs immediately after they'd heard what happened, but Cole himself broke free of the guards' grip, and murdered everyone there, including his family. He escaped shortly after, and was pursued by the police for a week. That week went by, and the police didn't manage to find him (despite a few close calls). He was lost on the streets, alone, with no clue of what to do or who he was. However, an anonymous group found him, and taught him how to utilize his new powers that he had gained. They turned him into a criminal; a murderer. He went off and pursued a life of tyrannical villainy, torturing the innocent and drinking with the guilty. This continued into early 2014. That was when [i]they[/i] found him. Project Rehab. They captured him, and dragged him off to their testing centers, where he became a human pin cushion. Tests underwent on him, discovering his powers and insanity. They injected a ticking time bomb in him, and locked him up in a super prison, where he was unable to use his powers to escape. He became part of a squad of villains, and eventually accepted his fate. [i]Now, he's just waiting for his first assignment.[/i][/center] [/hider][/center]
