History
Little has been revealed about Shrapnel's past. At one time he was a normal human named Mark, and at some point he was transformed into the creature he is today. For his first professional case as a hitman, Shrapnel was hired to go to Kansas City to kill Walter Williamson; a man from his past. Shrapnel attempted to stay incognito, but failed miserably after deciding to slaughter anyone who caught a glimpse of him. Within hours there was a citywide manhunt for the unusual killer.Powers and Abilities
Powers
Has super human strength and endurance. Does not require food or water to exist. Body consists of hundreds of pieces of an organic-metallic substance that can be projected into explosive bursts. Each scale is a living organism controlled by Shrapnel's consciousness, so once fired they can be directed and recalled at will. Pieces lost by Shrapnel will eventually die, but he can regenerate new ones.
