From one warzone to another. Adrian scans the horizon looking for crimes to fight.BACKGROUND
Adrian grew up in a big family and is 3rd child of his four other siblings. Jason & Marcel his two older brothers. Rourke his younger brother & Emily his youngest sister. His parents & grandparents before him were all farmers and the family lived together in a farming community.
Unlike his two older brothers, Adrian wanted to go outside the community and see the world. By the time he graduated from High School, he realized he will not be able to fulfill his dreams unless he goes to university. Which is not possible given his meagre finances. His parents saw little need to do so as they were content with being farmers.
When the US Marine Corps came by town for a recruitment drive. Adrian was amongst the first to enlist in return for a scholarship. After his training, Adrian was deployed to numerous areas of conflict.
His commanding officers eventually took notice of him and sent him for rangers training earning his tab. He was subsequently reassigned to a special forces unit which saw the fiercest combat in various warzones.
Adrian fulfilled his goals of seeing the world although not in the manner or way he had expected. The unit he was in had a 100% mission success rate until the last mission. Found drifting in the arctic ocean on an ice floe by a eco-activist. The Sea Shepards eventually radioed for help and handed the severely wounded Adrian over to U.S Naval forces in the vicinity.
The rest of his unit was never found and Adrian was unable to recall any events related to this mission. Following this event, Adrian was pulled out from his unit and given leave from active service. Investigation was still underway even after his recuperation.
Unable to return to active service anytime soon. Adrian decided to further his studies in Paragon City. There he learnt of the perils that faced the City and decided to volunteer for crime fighting action in his spare time.
POWERS
None. An ordinary human being with no special powers or abilities. Military conditioning and training has given Adrian a much tougher and stronger physique than most human beings. Although capable of performing extraodinary at times, he is aware of his limitations. He constantly keeps himself in tiptop shape to ensure that he will be at his best when the situation demands it.
ABILITIES
Marksmanship. Adrian's tough and rigorous training coupled with his superb hand eye coordination means that he can hit a target fairly accurately even after making great movements.
Leaps & bounds. He was a gold medalist in hurdle jumping back in High School and never stopped training. His ability to jump over great heights has impressed his military instructors. Who knows his ability may have even exceed the best olympic jumper but Adrian is in no hurry to find out.
EQUIPMENT
XF-32B - OICW
The latest Objective Individual Combat Weapon. Adrian once rescued a scientist from a top secret mission and he has allowed Adrian access to this prototype.
An extremely versatile weapon, its capable of single shots, controlled burst, full auto & an alternative firing mode allows for sniper fire. It also incorporates a pump action shotgun as well as a grenade launcher.
UT-X21 Targetting Drone
This drone will follow the user autonomously. It scans its surroundings, calculate wind speed velocity, bullet trajectories, ricochet angles and various other factors that may affect the accuracy of the human. The data it process is then remotely sent to the XF-32B - OICW that helps minimize human error and calibrate the shot fired in nano seconds.
