Now in the year 2016, it has been nearly two years since H.E.L.P. was forced to disband and shut down both H.I.T. and P.R.C.U. Those Hyperhumans who had attended the school were forced to re-integrate into normal life, hiding their abilities from those they cared about in order to ward off any prejudice that could bring their loved ones harm. But disappearing proved more difficult than they could have imagined as the rise of vigilantes and other empowered activities kept the global eye squarely on Hyperhuman activities.

For some time now there has been talk of a Hyperhuman Registration Act, which would call for the identity of anyone possessing the Hype-Gene to be registered into a database for the use of law enforcement. While there has yet to be a majority vote in favor of the act, a preliminary version has been enacted for Hyperhumans who have been caught committing crimes with their abilities. It is these Hyperhumans who have skewered the public image and for this reason many of the public live in fear of Hyperhumans. That is except for the city of Larissa. The North Carolina city of Larissa has been under the protection of the vigilantes known as the Mavericks who have won the adoration of their city through their crusade against crime, however this phenomenon has yet to occur in any other location.

As such, 'outed' Hyperhumans are often pariahs within their home communities. For this reason, many Hyperhumans are forced to become nomads if their true nature is discovered. This has lead to roaming Hyperhuman Convoys which make their way across the country in search of a place to call home. Even Larissa doesn't welcome these outcasts into their home, wanting to avoid inviting unwanted travel into the city. With the ongoing Hyperhuman attacks, these convoys have been converging together in order to follow the principle of 'safety in numbers'. The largest convoy ever recorded has currently come to a rest out of Pointe Bordeaux, a city located on the border of the American states of Texas and Louisiana. This convoy is currently pursuing a rumor of a sanctuary that would finally be safe for Hyperhumans of all shapes and sizes.

Emory Robert Fairchild

’Em’, Bobby

22nd December, 1994

22

Male

Pansexual

Homo-Virium

ORCUS

Amorphous Physiology
Emory has no distinct shape: his natural form is an amorphous slime-like substance. He is a brilliant shapeshifter, able to sculpt himself into the shape of anything he pleases: though it’s naturally easier for him to adapt a human form as it’s what he’s most familiar with, he can also pose as inanimate objects or animals. He can shift parts of his body into tools or weapons by changing their shape and hardening them to be as dense and as durable as steel. In his amorphous form, he is able to move around as a puddle, albeit very slowly, which allows him to squeeze through even the smallest of spaces, given enough time. His amorphous form is incredibly sticky, which allows him to effectively trap victims and even suffocate them. He doesn’t know it yet, but Emory is essentially immortal: he hasn’t aged biologically since his powers manifested, though he can still be killed. He must still sustain himself by absorbing nutrients, but he doesn’t need to breathe and is thus immune to suffocation. He is also largely invulnerable to most physical attacks, as his body instinctively reacts by briefly turning the targeted area into slime. However, he is still more than capable of being caught off-guard and non-physical attacks effect him as they would any other. Should part of him be wounded or even severed, Emory is able to generate new mass to replace what is lost.

The son of Fairchild Electronics CEO Robert Fairchild and his wife Veronica, Emory was the light at the end of a dark tunnel for his parents; after six years of fruitless efforts to conceive, Emory’s birth was something of a miracle. He was well-loved by his parents and, whilst he inevitably found himself in the care of nannies from time-to-time, his superficial parents made an effort to be around him as much as they could, much to the surprise of some of their critics. Surrounded by love and pleasantry in their lavish coastal mansion in Paradise on the Water, Emory Fairchild could not have asked for a more comfortable upbringing. But some years later, it would emerge that the love his parents had for him was not entirely unconditional.

As he grew older, some of Emory’s life choices had been somewhat disappointing to the Fairchilds. From the time devoted to his band Maharaja, to his partiality for smoking marijuana, at eighteen years of age long-haired Emory was not the perfect son they’d envisioned for their perfect family. He’d never made an effort to hide any elements of his life from them, either; he was naturally rebellious, bored of his pampered existence, he took quiet joy in showing his parents that he had little interest in the artificiality of their American dream.

They reluctantly supported him, as any parents would, and did their best to keep him on the straight and narrow. But all that changed when Emory’s Hype gene activated.

No longer dormant, the manifestation of Emory’s strange abilities shook the entire family, not least Emory himself. The general public was not aware of Hyperhumans at the time, and so when Vanessa checked on a sick Emory in bed to find the sheets covered in sticky black slime and her son nowhere in sight, she was horrified. Emory was sentient the entire time, unable to move or speak and not entirely sure what was happening.

A strange, blind woman arrived at the house, telling the Fairchilds all about the Hype gene and explaining that their son was one of them. She told them of a school, name the PRCU, that could help Emory to control his gifts and live a normal life. The parents reacted somewhat extremely, horrified that their child was a ‘freak’ – a ‘monster’. Knowing that Emory would likely die without her help, she wiped his parents memories and transported the now slime-based boy to the PRCU.

After rigorous testing and training, Emory soon managed to tame his powers, able to maintain his human form with relative ease, as well as learning to take on seemingly any other form he pleased with varying levels of realism. After a year at the school, it seemed everything was falling into place, and soon Emory would be able to return home to his parents and explain to them what had happened.

But he was still learning, and when Emory was attacked in a small town near the school, he wasn’t able to control himself enough in combat to avoid killing his aggressors. Now on the run for murder, the PRCU and his home back in Los Paraiso were off-limits.
He spent the next year or so flitting from city to city with crime as his main income, using his powers to get him out of trouble and escape imprisonment. As the existence of Hypes was revealed to the world, CCTV footage of his daring escapes went viral and made headlines across the world: “DANGER AMONG US”, “HYPER-HOUDINI STRIKES AGAIN”, “HE COULD BE ANYONE!”.

The media attention was enough to spook him into keeping a low profile, with his powers giving him the benefit of essentially being whoever he pleased. He eventually settled down in the city of Tyler, Texas, where he earned money fixing cars and dealing marijuana acquired through his powers. It was a tough life, and a far cry from where he’d been three years prior, but at 20 years old he wasn’t afraid to admit he enjoyed the simplicity of it in an odd way... For now.

But after two years of relative dormancy, Emory grew restless. He knew he couldn’t settle properly until he confronted his past and addressed what had happened on that faithful day; he had questions for his parents and he needed answers. Learning that his father was due to announce a ‘revolutionary’ new product to the market at a summit in Pointe Bordeaux, Emory began to make travel arrangements to the neighbouring state of Louisiana.

Emory is motivated by the persistent voice in the back of his mind, constantly reminding him of the terms in which he left home. Having not seen his parents at all over the last five years, he has a lot of questions for the mother and father who had previously loved him so much. More than anything, he just wants to know how they're doing and perhaps rekindle some kind of relationship with his mother and father. But sometimes, ignorance is bliss...

Having no real metabolism but requiring a large amount of energy, Emory almost exclusively eats fast food in huge portions, since he doesn't run the risk of poor health or gaining weight. His favourite is deep pan pizza with extra cheese, bacon, chicken, mushrooms and peppers, with a stuffed crust. We have that in common.
