The Duelist

The Duelist is a golem, formed mentally and physically into the perfect hero. Well, at least, he was supposed to be, but the tinkerers messed the formula up a bit. ((Keep in mind that, ICly, The Duelist is unregistered and evading PRIMUS, so most of this information isn't publicly available))

Creation
In 1997, Gelland Gene and his team, all relatively unknown scientists, were PRIMUS hopefuls, considered for new open spots in the organization. If they were the chosen applicants, their world would be changed, with a brand new section of labs and equipment all to themselves, complete with a massive research grant in the booming new economy. Lucky for them, a revolutionary new creation of theirs was already planned and prepared.

By mid-1998, the last stretch of the PRIMUS consideration, Gene's team completed their experiment: A new method of creating artificial humans, with the ability to imprint whatever mentality needed into the 'mind' of the creature. To make sure that his particular creation blew the minds of the PRIMUS heads, Gene gave the command to mold the golem's body and mind into the perfect hero, from the massive frame to the required bravery and altruism.

Unfortunately for Gene and his team, their rush to finish the process in time to show PRIMUS led to the mental-imprinting process to go past the desired level, and the golem's confidence and heroism were thrown into overdrive. After awakening their creation, the team's hopes were crushed, with spreading doubt about PRIMUS' likelihood of seeing the creature as anything but an exaggerated, dangerously powerful lunatic.

On the last day of 1998, their fears were realized, and their applicant status was revoked. With his and his team's dreams crushed, Gene was desperate to complete a last, newly considered goal: keeping his new creation, deemed Duelist, from being forcibly signed up under PRIMUS, where he would be experimented on and contained for as long as they pleased. Convincing his team that the poor being deserved better than a destructive imprisonment, they worked together to add a communication device into the Duelist, establishing a permanent connection, and then freed the golem.

Organization/Super Group
The Prometheus Union: One of the initially contacted members. The Duelist was initially apprehensive about joining forces with people with varying levels of hate and anti-hero tendencies, but after a little cnvincing, he joined the cause.
