Character History
All his life, Robert Leland wanted to be a superhero. Unfortunately, given that he had no superpowers or natural ability, his dream was never realized. When he finished high school, Robert interned at Crey Industries. After working for several months as a lowly lab assistant, Robert stumbled onto an opportunity of a lifetime: Project Mystech. Mystech’s purpose was to use magical artifacts to power the perfect assault suit for the heroes of the city.
Late one night, after completing his round of testing, Robert overheard two of the senior project managers talking about the real objective of Mystech. While Crey’s expensive advertising campaign led the city to believe their mission was to help the city’s heroes, Mystech was actually a plot to develop a suit that would combat them instead.
Robert couldn’t let the suit be used for evil. He decided at that moment to steal one of the prototypes powered by a magical, green beetle, and use its powers to defend Paragon City as the Emerald Scarab.

Known Superhuman Powers
Having no true powers of his own, Robert has “acquired” a prototype suit from, Crey Industries known as the Scarab Suit. Powered by an ancient magical artifact the suit is capable of conducting, absorbing (Even the energy produced by the human body) and directing massive amounts of electrical energy to stun and incapacitate all types of enemies. Currently in the learning phase in regards to the suits powers, Robert is still discovering new abilities and limitation everyday.
Other Abilities
The Scarab Suit is capable of sustained flight through the use of a set of fabricated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) molded artificial insect wings and small micro-motor located in a pack on the wears back. These artificial wings can automatically fold and retract into this compartment with the touch of a button on the suits belt.
Limitations
While the Scarab Suit protects, Robert from electrical energy and small amounts of physical damage, he is still a normal human being with the same weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
Paraphernalia
The Scarab Suit is equipped with a, Crey medical scanner. This device can he used to administer light medical aid in combat and heal simple wounds. The suit also has a holographic HUD display for flight use that shows the wears airspeed and altitude, aerial targets as well as GPS information and local radar images.
Weapons/Arsenal
With an unlimited amount of electrical energy at the wears disposal, the Scarab Suit can release tremendous amounts of power, easily knocking out a dozen or so armed men with a single blast or immobilizing multiple targets to await incarceration.
