Knox is a towering giant of a man, infused with state-of-the-art cyber and bio augmentations. A seven foot beast, bound in both muscles and metal, Knox’s body has been meticulously molded to create a gargantuan killing machine. Nanobots have carefully woven monomolecular fibres through his flesh, giving his skin highly increased defensive capabilities, and his bones have been bolstered by robust alloys. 

His features are hard and brutish; stoney flesh having been intertwined with cybernetics. His eyes have been replaced with a more advanced prototype model of the optic implants used by Peacekeeper special forces, and his left arm has been swapped out for a massive prosthetic limb
  
[b]Personality:[/b] 

Knox is a hateful, bitter man. Years of mockery and isolation twisted his brilliant mind into something cruel and heartless, and he fiercely despises mankind. He holds no real loyalty to Osi-Corp, and instead uses his position as an excuse to satiate his sadistic urges. 

There was once a complex and ingenious man buried beneath his heinous exterior, but Knox has since devolved into monstrous degenerate, who lives only to kill.  

[b]Bio:[/b] 


Born over one hundred years ago, Knox Haynesworth was considered to be one of the greatest minds of his generation. An Oxford graduate, entrepreneurial genius, and cunning thinker, Haynesworth co-founded Gallo and Haynesworth pharmaceuticals with childhood friend Roberto Gallo, and the pair grew to become exceedingly wealthy and successful. 

Achieving immense prosperity early into his young adulthood, Haynesworth married internationally renowned supermodel Norma Jacquet, and lived an exceedingly happy life, until his health rapidly began to deteriorate, and doctors diagnosed him with ALS. 

Knox’s life fell apart.    

His wife left him for his Roberto, those he had considered his friends drifted away, and Haynesworth became tragically aware that those who remained in his life were vying for his vast wealth. With mere months to live, Knox made arrangements to have his body cryogenically preserved in liquid nitrogen, in hopes that he would one day be revived, once a cure for his condition had been discovered. 

In the last few months of his natural life, Knox devolved into a vicious, sour man. He despised those who had left him, and hated those who had stayed to pick over his carcass. 

Knox died, and his body was frozen, as per his wishes. Roberto assumed control over Gallo and Haynesworth, continuing to run the company until it was was consumed by the business conglomerate which would one day grow to become Osi-Corp. 

Knox Haynesworth was brought back to life some eighty odd years later, and his body was restored. Using a portion of the boundless wealth which had accumulated during his years as a dead man, Haynesworth commissioned construction of a massive, barbarous body, which his brain was then grafted into. 

He tried to adjust to life in the future, but was still plagued by a fiery hatred for all human life, and was constantly getting arrested for assault, and other such crimes. An Osi-Corp executive took notice of Knox’s particular case, and devised a plan to weaponize his bitterness in order to forward his own ambitions. 

Haynesworth was offered a job as part of Osi-Corp’s private security sector, which he accepted. He was outfitted with new cybernetics, and special forces training; quickly molding him into a weapon for Osi-Corp. Knox has spent a few years putting his skills to use, on whatever grim task Osi-COrp needs him to fulfill, and has now been assigned to retrieve the Golden Disk of Arcadia.
