Alexander Caine

Alexander James Caine is a metahuman who is very good at killing people.

Early Life
Alexander was born to a Manx family in Baltimore in the year 1950. His father was a fisherman, and as soon as he was old enough, Alexander was introduced to the family trade. He became an accomplished swimmer as a result of his seaside activities, and an even more accomplished brawler due to the constant tussles he engaged in at the bars and docksides. Despite not being a spectacular student, Alexander never performed too poorly in school.

Vietnam War
The life of an academic was not for Alexander, and when he graduated high school in 1968, he enlisted in the US Army. He entered during the latter years of the Vietnam War, after the use of metahuman soldiers had begun. He distinguished himself in boot camp, and upon his deployment, proved greatly skilled at outwitting the ambushes and traps of the Viet Cong with ambushes and traps of his own, which saw his recruitment into the Green Berets, and a swift rise through the ranks.

Hanoi Massacre
By the time that the American military, lead by the metahuman soldiers of the Thunderguard, had taken Hanoi, Alexander was a sergeant in the Green Berets with a squadron under his command. He was on leave with his brothers in arms, celebrating their victory with drinks in a local bar, when Brigadier General (insert name) was killed.

Project Thanatos
As the war drew to an end, Alexander was recruited by Project Thanatos, which was designed to provide adequate replacements to the recently disbanded Blackout Squadron. Receiving a dose of I-3, formula, Alexander gained a set of abilities that would best be described as the original purpose of the old I-5 formula. After gaining his power, Alexander spent five years training under Carter Maddis, the only member of Blackout Squadron still in the employ of the US military. After his training was complete, Alexander went on to become one of the most lethal assassins at the government's disposal.

Present Day
Alexander currently is located in a government base on the Chesapeake Bay.

Abilities
Metahuman Physiology: Alexander received dosage of the I-3 ichor formula which successfully transformed him into a metahuman, and endowed him with multiple superhuman abilities.
 * Pain Immunity: Alexander's nervous system is configured so as not to register pain. As a result, no damage his body suffers induces any pain.
 * Regenerative Healing Factor: Alexander's most notable power is his regenerative healing factor, which enables him to recover from the vast majority of wounds near instantaneously. When he is cut, the gash seals behind the knife, not even allowing blood to begin to flow. Any bullets which puncture his flesh will be nearly immediately forced out, and he is capable of regrowing a lost limb or organ within a few dozen seconds. The greatest feat he is capable of is recovering after having been in close proximity to the explosion of a large bomb, which resulted in him regenerating from a pool of congealed blood within about ten minutes. As a result, it has been speculated by Argus that the only way to overcome his healing factor would be to completely obliterate every cell of his body. It should also be noted that when his brain is heavily damaged or destroyed, Alexander is temporarily incapacitated for the seconds or minutes it takes him to repair the damage.
 * Limitless Stamina: As a result of his healing abilities, Alexander's body produces virtually no fatigue toxins, meaning that his endurance is virtually never ending. Furthermore, due to his inability to experience fatigue, as well as the fact that his brain is constantly being repaired to top condition, he does not require sleep.
 * Superhuman Durability: Alexander's body is tougher than a normal human, with skin likened to toughened leather that can usually withstand a glancing knife strike without injury. His body is easily able to withstand the force of most human punches, though bullets will still go right through him as they would for an ordinary human.
 * Superhuman Senses: All of Alexander's senses are enhanced to levels slightly above the human peak, allowing him superior hearing, vision, smell, and taste.
 * Superhuman Speed: Alexander is capable of moving much more quickly than an ordinary human. He possesses reflexes that enable him to easily dodge and strike at normal humans in hand to hand combat, and can easily achieve a sprinting speed of thirty five miles per hour. However, due to his healing abilities, he is able to increase his speed to a maximum of fifty miles per hour, as the horrendous muscular tears that would result in such exertions are instead healed immediately.
 * Superhuman Strength: Alexander is gifted with physical strength which allows him to easily overpower any normal human. He is able to lift approximately two thousand pounds, or one ton, over head, without trouble, especially considering his immunity to fatigue.
