Background
Considering himself to be neither truly a villain nor a hero, Screamghost always has a problem with authority figures on either end of the spectrum. Some believe his lack of seriousness with any situation is linked to a possible multiple personality syndrome, while others have labeled him as just plain crazy. He hardly considers himself an anarchist, but a spark of chaos and corruption has always brought a smile to his face.
History
Born in Portland, Oregon then moved to Phoenix, Arizona, Dane has never had any problems making friends, it was keeping them that plagued his childhood. He stated once to a high school counselor, "Sure, it's easy to give people what they want in a friend. Just put on either some hip looking clothing, or dress in all black with their favorite band shirt. The thing is, I like to point out the faults in people, possibly because I'm pretty comfortable with my own."
Dane eventually joined the military, working his way into the CIA, hunting down criminals who fled the boarders and either dragging them back or finishing the job. He started fashioning his mask to be more than just a simple ski mask with night vision goggles, making more of a theme of a ghost to introduce scare tactics, throw off his enemy. Soon he lost his real name, picking up the identity as Screamghost
Powers
On one of his jobs, after retrieving a runaway terrorist from Canada, he came across an unknown organization who recruited him in their program. Ditching a helicopter that was seen crashing down into the wilderness, it was assumed Dane was dead along with the crew. The organization implanted a mutation, increasing his healing factor, stamina, and senses. The healing factor is strong enough to regrow entire limbs; so impressed with his new capabilities, he took up being an assassin for the group, picking up specialized weapons to take down metahumans he frequently was requested to defeat.
Equipment
The gadgets he has gathered started off as katanas and sais made of adamantium to penetrate invulnerable foes. Strapped to his side is a .44 Beretta designed and altered to fire unique rounds designed for his job. As a result, it is less accurate and opts to not use it unless absolutely needed. Grappling hooks are attached to his wrist for ease of movement through the isles.
Affiliation
The organization who's name had remained a mystery to Screamghost or he just never bothered to ask was raided by heroes, back stabbed by a sleeper agent who became a love interest for him. He fought her to the bitter end, both of them knowing he would win from the start. Escaping from Canada alive, he began doing freelance mercenary work both in North and South America while occasionally traveling to Asia and the Middle East. He gained a contract through the Shadow Agent, but this would involve getting himself incarcerated. Liking the challenge the promise to be the first Arch Nemesis in the Network's Nemesis-X, Screamghost accepted.
((OOC Section))
Inspiration
The Joker, Number one super villain. No one knows why he does it, he just does. The Joker has been in most of our lives since we entered the realm of comics.
Deadpool > Raptor Jesus; enough said.
Wolverine, The guy just rules. Was it Cyclops Origins? Storm and the X-Men? No, it was Wolverine.
