Namesake
Namesake mostly keeps to himself, preferring to fight crime alone. Recently, speculation has come about that there is alot more to Namesake than he lets on. Reporters for the Paragon City Times have questioned the leaders of E.L.I.T.E. multiple times as to why there is no medical history or government records associated with Namesake.
Affliations
Alliance Arms - Namesake was invited into the prestigious Alliance Arms Apartment Complex thanks to sponsership by Heavy-Mettle.
Heavy-Mettle - Heavy is really the only friend that Namesake would claim. It was through Heavy's intervention at both his defection and trial that saved Namesake from death.
History

Rebirth
Project Honey Bee
Due to his previous crimes against Paragon City, Namesake has been forcibly enrolled in "Project Honey Bee"; a program tailored to villains who have had a change of heart.
Project Honey Bee is relatively undocumented, but general consensus is that it amounts to a government sponsered suicide squad. Like the Honey Bee who will die after stinging something, the members of this program are given missions and objectives that most Heroes couldn't hope to complete and live to tell about it.
Namesake is vehemently tightlipped about his involvement in the project, however a tattoo of a Honey Bee can be found on the left of his neck.
Powers
Namesake has no super-natural powers. All powers that were previously usable (flight, energy manipulation, spontaneos regeneration, super-human reflexes, and durability), have been lost due to lack of genome treatment.
Advantages
Namesake relies completely on being one step ahead of his opponents. Having given up his genome treatments as part of his escape from the Crey, his only option is to simply be better than the villains he faces.
Muscle Memory
Fighting with wrist-blades, claws, katars, etc. comes very easy to Namesake. He feels this is due to the fact that he is a clone of the single greatest punch-blade martial artist the world has known thus far. Definitely not supernatural as it only applies to these fighting styles, Namesake believes that he is a "natural" due to ghost memories of his "father".
Wrist Mounted Blades
Namesake's current costume includes wrist-mounted blades which he uses to neutralize any threats he comes across. With the help of the Panther's unique style, Namesake is able to utilize most of his skill without causing death or dismemberment for his prey.
Peak Physical Condition
Namesake is in nearly perfect physical condition. He is above olympic levels in both running, jumping, and all manner of acrobatics. In addition, as a bi-product of Crey testing, Namesake is higly resistant to pain, and is more resilient than most against invasions of his mind.
Weaknesses/Disadvantages
Namesake's biggest weakness is a social one. Should others find out that he was a Crey Paragon Protector, he would likely be shunned from his new life.
