History
Early Years
Nathan was a super-powered Hero much like his peers at Paragon High. At public schools it’s so abnormal for students to have super power so his powers were nothing that made him stand out. His power was just simple electricity so they weren’t anything impressive. He was a normal teenager that was interested in cars, girls and sports. During the weeks leading up to the first Rikti invasion, he started going out with a girl from his history class. Her name was Rachel and she didn’t know about Nathan’s powers.
The Fall of a Hero
May 23rd 2002 : The Evening of the Rikti invasion was the best and the worst day of his life. His Lacrosse game was cancelled because of the strange red lights in the sky, so he decided to go out on the town with his girlfriend. He decided to revel his powers to her by going to Atlas Park, little did he know that something big was about to happen. While they were in the park the sky opened up with an invasion force that left the whole city paralyzed within 5 minutes. Soon the park was crawling with an invasion force the earth had never seen. Now was the time to revel his power. He fought with some of the best heroes around, but they were too much for him. He was killed by a blast from a rifle, protecting his girlfriend from the shot. The last thing he heard was the sound of Rachel calling out for help.
New Life
Nathan was in a comma for weeks and because he had no relatives, he was giving up to a company called Black Corps, a leader in advance robotics as well as treating super heroes. One night after Nathan was being operated on and in a recovery ward, Arachnos solider broke into the complex and stole Nathan along with a few others. He was taken to the isles where he was made into a cybernetic Assassin. When Nathan awoke from his coma, he was sent to train with the other cyborgs in fighting, evasion and other tactics that will make them the ultimate weapon.
Path to Darkness
Sometimes during his first years he went on a mission to take down Lord Recluse. The Rouge Island Police told the press that this assassination attempt was a failure and that Ultra was dead. A few months later a orphange was attack by an assassin who was know to folks around the isles as Black Bullet. This sparked intrest in the hero comminity and people were sent to the isles to take him down.(See Police Files) A few years and many murders later, Black Bullet was caught. But little did they know that Ultra and Watcher, were one in the same. Arachnos had reprogrammed him to their likings. Often his tactics are brutal. Some are public executed; some are publicly beaten bloody and dead. There are some rumors that some of he has even raped his victims. Some of his kills are most violent kills that paragon has ever seen.
A New Hope
Ultra broke out of the ranks of Arachnos and escaped to Paragon where he deiced to use his skills in combat to help folks of paragon. He first started out as a gun for hire, jumping from group to group based on pay, not caring for anybody he helped. To him it was always the next mission, the next paycheck. The citizens at first did not approve of his ways of dealing with villain saying it was a setting a bad imagine of heroes, he didn’t care. So he kept this cycle until one day in Atlas.
He was tracking a known underground villain group lead by a man named Arbiter Death. His mission was simple, take Death down and bring an end to this renegade group. Fate had other plans. Nathan spotted a girl who was rather close to the leader of this group, her name was Luna Moonchild, she was lovely indeed but it was about the mission. At first his intentions were to use Luna to get to Death, but he came to realize this was no simple task, for she was the one in need of a hero. In his struggles to free her from his grip, they both fell in love with each other.
As time grew on they love for each other did, until one day when a group of radicals kidnapped her proclaiming she was their chosen one. Ultra fought hard and long to reclaim her back, but his attacks only angered the groups’ leader and had her killed. Ultra now realized that what he learned in Arachnos training was right; love can betray you in the end.
Present Day...
Ultra today is a freelance gun for hire, and although he likes to work with heroes, jobs are slim so he might take the evil ones too. He still lives with a lot of pain and tries to stay away from becoming emotionally attached to people. While all this is going on he struggles with himself to find a sense of closure from his painful past. Becuase of this he tries to find a lot of work so he can keep his mind on something else. He does find going to the Pocket D relaxing for some reason.
Personality
Nathan comes across as a jackass to most, although he is very sociable. He has few friends because he knows his lifestyle puts them in danger. You wouldn’t notice if you don’t know him well but he is dealing with a lot of pain and is often has burst of uncontrollable rage. He is very talkative, when he is not on the job, mostly towards female if you get him when he is in the mood. He doesn’t like to talk about his past life and often tries to separate himself from others to keep them out of harms way.
