“Hell, what else do I have to gain from those dickheads?” - Raid Reynolds

Background: Much of Reynolds’ childhood is unknown rather than he is born in Porkbelly, Ontario, Canada. Most of his profile was an enigma due to his tendency to move anywhere else around America. All over the years, Reynolds would kill multiple people (mainly corrupted) for no particular reason rather than just for the fun of it. Over these years, Reynolds would build up until one day, everything nearly became an end for him. In 2016, Reynolds was accused of inadvertently blowing up a children’s hospital, resulting in the deaths of 19 children, while he was supposed to actually assassinate a SOMBRA terrorist (who actually switched Reynold’s detonator intended for him for his detonator, but is still arrested anyway). Because of the crime, he was sentenced to life in prison, but was both fortunately and unfortunately let out a week after for two reasons: the police found Reynolds’ detonator intended for the terrorist and Reynolds was hospitalized from terminal cancer of unknown origin. While being treated in a experimental room, an unknown assassin arrived to seemingly murder Reynolds by rigging the machine he’s in, only for him to obtain mutate powers that allow him to fully endure the cancer he had. Two years of assassinating and contract killing later, Reynolds was recruited by Regiment 101 International for acknowledgement of his genuine actions, but is only placed as the mascot due to his untrustworthiness.

Raiden “Raid” Lynnely Winter Reynolds; Age: 42-43, Weight: 174 lbs, Height: 6'2", Blood: O- (heavily altered)

(Former) Occupation(s): Freelance Mercenary, Special Forces Operative, R101 International Mascot

Appearance: Reynolds is a tall man of average build with bleaching blonde swept hair, a 5 o'clock shadow, and blue eyes, but due to a experimental accident, his face and body are permanently scarred and a bit distorted. He wears a smooth and durable red shirt with black patterns, two silver straps holding his katanas, black and red pants with a brown belt holding two guns on holsters, and matching sneakers of the former. He also wears a red and black mask with white magnifying lens similar to Deadpool and matching arm-length gloves that connect to his shirt.

Reynolds’ katanas has black and red hilts and silver blades with separate gold words, “Bea” and “Arthur”, on the bottom. His gray IWI Desert Eagle Mark XIX handguns can hold 7 .50 AE rounds that has numbers on the primers (counting down from 14 to 1). Reynolds also has a teleporter disguised as his belt and a holographic inducer app on his phone. Additionally, Reynolds wields grenades, sai, and knives, which are hidden in his suit.

Personality: Reynolds maintains a cynical, asocial, snarky, grumpy, unruly, depressed, sarcastic, and quipping personality that he usually shows to his teammates and others, but shows a blasé, wisecracking, smartass, murderous, and psychopathic side when alone or fighting his enemies. Due to his untrustworthiness and mysterious past, people usually sneer at him (which he talks back to) or ignore him at times, but Reynolds can hang with some people he knows or feels like hanging out with. Reynolds also displays a violent, insane, foul-mouthed, condescending, and rebellious personality when someone becomes infuriating and uncomfortable to him, which can lead to him brutally overpowering and beating up the offender while making vulgar taunts and threats. To release his frustration or talk about his problems, Reynolds can talk to the viewers (or breaking the 4th wall) when everybody’s not looking.

Despite his behavior, Reynolds has a genuine, kind-hearted, and caring side to the public, but doesn’t display it that often due to his cynical views. However, he can be friendly to his closest friends and young children and willing to help his friends to stop an enemy if they become a threat to cities. He also helps out civilians if he can by taking down their enemies such as harassers, extortionists, stalkers, attempted kidnappers, and other petty criminals.

Powers and Abilities: Due to his experience in the military, Reynolds is widely known for his peak human speed and reflexes, which is greatly enhanced by the experimental accident, along with giving him other powers unknown to him. With his katanas, guns, and other weaponry, Reynolds exhibits excellent proficiency in them and uses his wit and “maximum effort” to kills his enemies.

Reynolds also has the ability to heal from any injury in minutes or seconds depending on the severity of his wounds without showing any pain, but damage to his body and brain can cripple and disorient him. Even dismemberment can’t even kill him, but it can separate him from his body parts. The only ways to kill Reynolds is to either destroy his brain or drain him of his powers to let the cancer spread, with the latter being nearly impossible due to his unpredictability and dangerous responses. Reynolds can shoot red lasers out of his eyes that are strong enough to at least heat up adamantium. The lasers can obliterate and burn everything in its path, but they can easily be reflected by mirrors and be blocked by Stands. Reynolds can teleport too, but his range is limited and requires a specific location he can think of before going there, but this power can be enhanced by a teleporter, which can send Reynolds to any designated place he knows or easily dodge enemy attacks without fail. Using a holographic inducer app on his phone, Reynolds can disguise his body as someone else, but not the feel of it.

On some occasions, due to his mental insanity, Reynolds can break the fourth wall to explain about his problems when nobody’s looking. However, people who notice talking think of him as a crazy maniac and try to stay away from him. Reynolds is prone to annoy others, spitting out nonsense that the opponent tries to ignore until they crack and break down under stress.
