Full Name: Cole Andrew Maist
Codename: Armory
Date of Birth: July 4 2003
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Character Faction: unaffiliated
"Do you defend someone 'cuz 'they look like me'?"
Physical Appearance: Cole stands at about 5' 11" and is built like a football player, being that he is one. His soft blue eyes compliment his scruffy, brown hair. His family has always told him that his perfect smile can brighten up even the gloomiest of rooms. He has been told by many people that he should go into modelling because of his looks. However, his body isn't flawless. If one looks closely at his right eye, they will notice a small square around the pupil. And on each of his arms, on the front of his chest, and down his back are scars. While they are normally barely noticeable, when he becomes upset or frustrated, they darken.
He is usually seen in either a jersey or a polo shirt along with khakis or jeans.While he doesn't usually wear a hat, he has been seen with sunglasses resting on his forehead. He usually wears ankle boots or tennis shoes, typically white or light blue ones. However, his combat suit looks like a grey and black metal plated armor. The torso and biceps is where most of the armor rests, leaving his forearms exposed.
Personality: Cole is a go-getter. He loves to help the less fortunate and be around his friends. He is also known for being humble. While in school, he typically fits into the jock classification, he hangs out with people of all stereotypes. He has always wanted to be a bio-engineer, and thus put most of his study into science and health classes. His worst subject has always been arts. He can't carry a tune, nor can he draw very well. He stands up for others, and, while he doesn't condone violence, he will protect his friends and family by any means necessary. Even though he enjoys all types of sports, his favorite has always been football. He throws a game party usually every other week, with the super-bowl party being one of the most talked about parties in the school.
Personal History: Cole was born into a rich family. His mother was a doctor and his father a lawyer. But just because his family was rich, doesn't mean he was left alone. The Maist family was well-knit and supported each other. His father taught him how to throw a football, and went to as many football games as he could. His mother would help him with his homework and make him dinner every night. There was no family he would rather have been a part of. In junior high, he typically played as the quarterback, helping his team win the championship. He was always the popular kid, and girls would often fight over him, for who wants to date him. However, he didn't let the popularity get to him, and would help out those that were less fortunate. When he heard about someone in the school that had his sister be diagnosed with cancer, Cole helped set up a fund raiser to pay for her medical costs. But he wasn't without enemies. A lot of the guys that were jealous of him would try to embarrass him, but that usually ended up back-firing on them.
But, around his 14th birthday, his life would be changed. The honor-roll student was kidnapped, and was experimented on. His attackers turned him into a cyborg, implanting a lot of high-tech machinery into the boy. They aimed to make him a super weapon, and release him on the world. They implanted the software that enabled him to understand and utilize the equipment used on him. While they also implanted a program to control him, it was corrupted, faulting and becoming disabled after a lightning bolt struck the teen while flying during a thunderstorm. While the strike removed the controlling program, it also erased some information on some of his weapons. His kidnappers were eventually apprehended and sentenced to life in prison. While his body was changed and he was no longer completely human, the teen still tried to live a normal life.
When he earned a scholarship to go to school, his parents bought him a sports car to congratulate him. He also worked a couple of jobs, enabling him to buy his own place, with the help of his parents, of course. He has been known to take some kids that were down on their luck and let them stay at his place for a little while. During football season, he would watch as many games as he could, inviting friends over as well. But when the super-bowl came around, he would throw a party for everybody. However, he would always make it very clear that there were to be no alcoholic beverages. He removed a couple of students one year for attempting to sneak some in.
While he still tries to live a normal life, Cole has also taken up a life of heroism. He still plays as the quarterback in football. And while people have seen his scars, he claims that they were caused by a car wreck. There are very few of his friends that know the real secret, mainly because they were at the wrong place at the right time. One of his best friends, Ethan Daden, even helps him with covering up his secret and finding criminal activity. He won't use his weapons if he doesn't have to; that being said, Cole will not hesitate to resorting to his "gift".

Enhanced durability| Blunt force and bullets up to .45 cal will have no affect on him. They will just bounce off of his skin, thanks to a unique substance injected into his body.
Skills: Bio-engineering| because of the software in his head, the teen is capable of repairing, upgrading, and building parts to replace his equipment, should it be damaged.
Football| Cole has been acknowledged by several universities because of his skills as a quarterback.

Equipment: Weaponry| Cole has weapons and equipment built into his body:
-Minigun| A minigun is implanted on the top of his right forearm. It is capable of firing 500 rounds a minute with each round equal to the power of an explosive .50 cal bullet.
-Lasergun| A laser gun is implanted in his left forearm. While it is able to reach temperatures equal to that of the sun, if the blast is held for too long, it will over-heat, preventing use for a short time
-Blades| One sword sits inside each arm on the side. They are 2 1/2 feet long and made out of titanium.
- Rocket launchers| two rocker launchers sit in his back. When used, they rest on top of his shoulders.
-Rocket boosters| These micro jet engines rest in the middle of his back and enable him to fly. While he is able to reach supersonic speeds of mach 3, flying that fast makes it extremely difficult to maneuver, so he rarely reaches those speeds.
-*Charged particle cannon| A powerful cannon that rests in his chest. The blast is able to shred objects into pieces, turning them into nothing more than ash. However, the weapon requires so much power that it puts him on reserve energy with just one blast. A second blast would shut down his systems temporarily.
-*Earthquake Generator| a unique weapons that utilizes a combination of magnetic pulses, rhythmic thumping, and sound waves to create artificial earthquakes. The magnitudes can be as strong as a 3.2 on the rector scale. This weapons envelopes his entire right arm.
-*concussion cannon| a weapon that uses powerful blasts of sound waves and air pressure to incapacitate enemies and break windows and other light framework. It has a range of up to 150 feet. it envelopes his entire left arm.
*=knowledge of use is currently missing
Molecular munition generator| A special machine absorbs molecules and atoms from his enviroment, replenishing his ammo supply as fast as he can use it.
Scanner| implanted in his right eye is a special scanner that not only enables him to auto aim his weapons, but it can scan objects, pulling up information on them. It also includes infrared and night vision capabilities.
Flashdrive| Installed in his fingers are connectors to tap into computers and other electronics. It enables him to either upload or download information and software.
Weaknesses: EMP| Being that he is part machine, a powerful blast will shut down his equipment. While he will still be able to move, his weapons and scanners will be disabled temporarily. A powerful bolt of lightning will have the same effect.
