Purple disc
From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe
Pre-registration
From the PPD Metahuman Database:
In recent days, an strange metahuman has been seen wandering Paragon, particularly the Kings Row area. He can be identified by his distinctive purple hoodie and blast goggles covering his eyes. He has been spotted conjuring circular discs of energy on at least seven occasions, confirming the presence of superpowers in this individual.
When residents of Kings Row were questioned about this individual, most knew nothing. A few local teenagers recognized his description as Hoodie Man, Purple Disc, Purple Hoodie, and various other nicknames they've taken to calling him. Unfortunately, none of those questioned knew his actual name. A few details remained constant throughout the stories told by those questioned, however; most of them stated that "Purple Disc" was mute, and almost half of them stated he was mentally disabled in some way.
About two days later, a group of PPD officers had the good fortune of running across Purple Disc. When approached by officers, Purple Disc was very compliant; he was asked basic yes-or-no questions, which he answered through head motions. However, when asked his name, he simply walked away. The officers did not attempt to stop him, in fear of angering him.
Below is the transcript of the conversation:
Officer: Can I ask you a few questions?
Purple Disc nods once.
Officer: Can you speak to me?
Purple Disc shakes his head negatively.
Officer: That's fine. You're the one people call Purple Disc, right?
Purple Disc shrugs.
Officer: You don't know? Well, I'd like to know what to call you then.
The officer pulls out a pad and pen.
Officer: Can you write your name on this paper?
At this point, Purple Disc shakes his head negatively and begins to walk away. The other officers in the group attempt to follow.
Officer: No, let him go. He didn't do anything yet.
Although Purple Disc has not yet committed any crimes, and the PPD has no proof that he has evil intentions, he should be monitored by PPD officers whenever spotted, and, should the opportunity allow, be questioned proper.
Next Gen
From the PPD Metahuman Database:
As of today, the metahuman known as Purple Disc is officially a registered superhero. According to his application, he doesn't know his name, hometown, any friends or relatives, or origin of his powers. He is, however, a member of the super group "Next Gen" and has been prior to his application.
When the hero registrar was questioned about him, he stated he "had difficulty speaking, and stuttered constantly," disproving the rumors of Purple Disc's inability to speak, but possibly signaling a speech disability.

I am modifying this entry to submit further information regarding Purple Disc, particularly regarding his rather uninformative registration. A week prior to the writing of this, Purple Disc came to me along with one of my colleagues who was also in Next Gen. Purple Disc explained that according to tests performed by Next Gen, a large portion of his frontal lobe has been mutated to only be used in power control. The remaining part of the frontal lobe had a fault in that every time it ran out of room for personal memories, it would remove all of them and begin again. Purple Disc wished to cybernetically link his brain to a digital storage device. I suggested some alternatives, but he was very adamant. I reluctantly installed a system into his brain that would allow it to link to the storage device via a cable protruding from the back of his head. Should he request more cybernetics, I shall deny them to him. I have seen too many youths fall victim to the idea of cybernetic improvements.
