Skills: Eddie has an eidetic memory and has always been a quick study but not to the superhuman levels. He also is very flexible, being a competitive gymnast. Although he has barely pushed himself academically, he has created a number of his own gadgets.

Personality: Eddie has always been friendly and competitive. He loves people and will give most people the benefit of the doubt. He loves food and can often be seen eating, though he has a high metabolism do he doesn't gain much weight. 

Super ancestors: Unknown. He was adopted as an infant.

Bio: Eddie was adopted at 3 months old by Markus and Elizabeth Erikson. They loved him like their own son, who was only a couple years older. Once he became a year old, he seemed to always be hungry when he wasn't running around at speeds too fast for the normal people. Shortly after becoming 3, he was nearly grabbed by a strange woman. How super speed, however, saved him as he ran back to his father.

When he started school, his parents stressed on him time and time again not to use his powers unless someone was in trouble. It was then that he used it to save one of his classmates, a girl who lived in his neighborhood. After catching her and keeping her from getting hurt worse, all the other kids were staring at him. When the teachers ran up to see what was going on, he had to be truthful. They treated him like a hero for the rest of the day, though the adults didn't put up with him showing off.

As he grew older, he practiced more in the forest just outside of town. He had a few close friends and a loving family with his father, mother, older brother and younger sister. He was eight when his parents sat him and his siblings down to explain everything. They explained his adoption and why he had powers but his brother and sister didn't. He was shocked but surprisingly understanding.

He learned to hide his powers in middle school and only used them when he needed. Thinking that was good he began trying to get his mother to let him try out for sports. She never let him and always told him the temptation would be too much. With that, he began looking for something active and competitive which would satisfy his mom. He found gymnastics. He explained to his mom what gymnastics he wanted to do and, from what the woman saw, there were none he could abuse his powers in. Thus he got signed up for gymnastics.

Over the next few years, betwe friends, gymnastics and chess, he was rarely home in time to eat with the rest of the family. When his brother began thinking he was trying to separate himself from his family, as he had missed the last 3 family game nights, Eddie rebounded with the promise to keep up with the family game nights until he moved out. With his brother satisfied and a promise to keep, he had to find a balance. He ended up dropping chess as there wasn't anything he was getting there he couldn't other places. Thus, he learned how to balance friends, family and gymnastics in a way where most everyone was happy.

After he graduated at near the top of his class, he began college with multiple scholarships to gymnastics, robotics, and academics. Needless to say, he only needed to worry about food. He started part time at a Macrosoft store as a cashier and worked his way up the ranks to manager before being called to the local corporate office. They surprised him with a job in that office making nearly double his current salary. Needless to say, he was excited. He was close to graduating college and had just gotten a job as an inventor. Life was great.

A few months after his graduation, he was working on a rather vague idea when the alarm began ringing signaling a fire. It had been over a decade since he had used it in front of people outside his family. With his speed, he saved everyone, not caring that all his coworkers had just seen his secret. News quickly spread up the chain to the CEO. He was called in by Willy Bates, owner and CEO of the company and offered a new job. Be a superhero. Eddie was hesitant but listened to the entire plan before accepting. He could only see 2 problems with it: there was no pay raise and many of his coworkers knew about him. It wouldn't take much for word to get out about who he was.

Super Suit/Gear: Being employed by Macrosoft, InfraStep has the company logo on both elbow pads and both knee pads. His overall suit is red, as close to infrared as he could get and still be seen, with a gold mask and trim. His knee and elbow pads are black worth the green logo, both complimenting and contrasting the suit. He wears mid-shin length black boots with gold trim. Around his waist, he wears a black belt with gold trim and a gold buckle. Around his belt are various pouches that carry his tools which include:

[List]Smoke pellets
EMP grenades
A pair of Tonfa
Ropes
A small bag of candy (something like skittles)
A notepad and pen
His cell phone
A camera[/list]
