Occupation: MRD, Division of Anomalous Affairs. Basically when the science upstairs stops making sense, the DAA are given the case. Until a few weeks ago, it was a just a place to file the strange unexplainable things, but with the acquisition of Mjölnir and the arrival of two unknown entities causing ripples and tears in the isolation spell, the DAA has become a lot more busy. Powers/Abilities: The MRD has spent years studying magical anomalies. Chief among them the Bloodgem. A stone used by Ulysses Bloodstone and his daughter Elsa. Research was done to try and replicate the protective properties of the Bloodgem. Bloodgem fragments bestow unto their wielder's superhuman strength, durability, speed, reflexes and stamina as well as immortality and a regenerative healing factor. The stone can also be used to completely restore and regenerate a person to the point of spontaneous resurrection on top of giving them immunity to psychological obstructions caused by illusions or mental manipulation. As if to complement these protective abilities the jewel also makes users immune to vampiric infection, making their blood caustic to the undead. It can also serve as a means of suppressing malignant possessing entities that would otherwise overtake an unwitting host. Said relic can harness an odd form of crimson energy which the wielders can utilize in strange and unique means; the original handler Ulysses could focus his psionic powers gained from which through the buckshot in Bloodstone's musket, Elsa can discharge energy blasts through her hand where the Bloodstone occupies, they also enhance magical abilities within certain individuals who posses one such stone; like Maha Yogi or Mordred to either focus or amplify their arcana many times over. The MRD recently completed a synthetic version, using the remains of Elsa and Ulysses to gain enough sample data to replicate the mineral. Creating a serum that can replicate the effects of the Bloodgem. It was given to the DAA field agents, including Harold Hunter. The reason for not widely distributing the serum is because only three out of ten survive the mutation process, even after extensive preliminary testing of candidates. Given the DAA’s increase likelihood of exposure to magical adversaries, the risk assessment deemed it worth while for those select few. Harold also had a latent aptitude for magic, which previously went unnoticed, until it was enhanced by the bloodstone serum. The MRD has been very adverse to him training his more arcane gifts. Backstory: Harold Hunter was born in the States to Germain parents. Growing up in a pretty normal Family, with an older sister, a mom working as a nurse and a dad as a policemen. He grew up wanting to be like his Dad, until, when he was sixteen, a Mutant killed his Father. Shocked and appalled that a mutant would kill his father for just doing his job. It threw Harold into a frenzy. He stormed down to the nearest MRD recruitment centre and signed up. Coercing his mother to sign on his behalf so that they would let him in. After a few years on the force, he managed to calm down a bit. Now at twenty, he was getting bored. Working in the field was all well and good, but there weren’t exactly large amounts of mutants lining up to be arrested. A lot of paperwork. A lot of ground work to find out where they were hiding. At 21 he got promoted to a desk job. The lay was better, and he didn’t have the anger over his father that made him such a good field agent. He became an overseer for a field team, and led them from MRD headquarters, New York Office. He kept his head down and pushed on for six years. When he accidentally led his team directly into the firing line of a hostile mutant and got them all killed, he was devastated. He requested to be transferred back to field work. A new ferocity backing up his field work. He turned down promotions for three years, before he was transferred. He didn’t have a choice. He thought he was being punished. Being transferred to some department he’d never heard of. Being force down into a shitty basement office where the first thing they did was stab him in the neck with some syringe. He blacked out. Had the worst fever you could imagine for three days. Agonising aches and pains. When he recovered a week later he was debriefed on what exactly DAA was. He spent the subsequent two years hunting the odd spook. Until a few weeks ago when he got a memo from Ares that a certain Hammer had shown up, and not long after that, not one, but unknown entities punched through the barrier. Creating ripples and cracks in the isolation spell. [/hider]
