COV Infamy-Black Scorpion I |
|
COV Infamy-Black Scorpion I I traced Black Scorpion's history back to a mercenary in Nicaragua named Ernesto Rodriguez. Rodriguez hired out for various little wars until he was chased north by the government, at which point he ended up in Mexico about COV Infamy. At that point he began hiring himself out for various jobs across the border into the US. COV Infamy.It was on one of these missions that his life changed forever. Rodriguez was leading a recon mission to investigate a hidden laboratory run by Leonard Bowen. Bowen was known throughout scientific circles for being brilliant but unsafe. The mission did not go well at first. Rodriguez and his men were spotted by a sentry. It quickly turned into a bloodbath. Details become sketchy at that point but it seems that when he finally got to the lab itself, Rodriguez discovered Bowen working on some kind of armored suit. He apparently tortured and then killed the scientist. Having ripped most of the secrets of the suit from Bowen, Rodriguez became Black Scorpion. COV Infamy is a kind of special game gold. Rodriguez used his newly found power to advance into the super-powered mercenary ranks. COV Infamy.His only clear goal seemed to be finding technology to improve his armor. He was hired for an Arachnos mission and realized immediately that having access to their labs and scientists was exactly what he needed. It wasn't long after that Back Scorpion encountered another mercenary who was equally fascinated with "upgrades". This woman called herself Silver Mantis. Silver Mantis was born Tamura Shirai. She began modifying her body in her early teens. It began with tattooing and piercing but she quickly discovered a new form of modification; Metal fusion. Tamura found an "artist" who would fuse smooth, sleek but incredibly strong metal to her body.COV Infamy. The cost was astronomical and so Tamura began to steal to feed her habit. Her career started with petty crime, but she soon found that nothing was more important to her than being able to pay off the "specialist" she had found, not even human life. Her first kill was surprisingly well executed and soon the entire mercenary community realized that she had not only a taste for it, but a talent as well. |
