Greyson Shaw - Lawyer Extraordinaire

###^(BASIC BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION)

Name: Greyson Shaw

Age: 99

Appearance: Faceclaim. A rather piercing set of eyes with black, slicked back hair and almost always clean shaven, Greyson's job keeps him in a suit almost all of the time. When mimicking a metal, his bone structure stays the same while the color and texture shifts to whatever material he's mimicking.

Mentality/Personality: Greyson doesn't take much shit. In the court, he's a badass, outside the court he's a far cry from a lover of conflict, only reducing himself to combat when necessary. He's got PTSD from World War 2 that he's learned to manage. The only time that he will concede easily is when explosives and loud sounds come into play, at that point he gets closer to a panic attack. He's somewhat disgusted with himself, seeing his ability to prolong his life to be unnatural, yet he's just too scared of death to stop. Ultimately he's a lowly pile of cynicism and self loathing.

Background: Born in 1917, Greyson was a born to a somewhat wealthy family. He grew up with aims to be a lawyer, which that dream was crushed when he got drafted during World War 2. He went through basic training, crying himself to sleep many, many times. When he finally got deployed, he was one of the unluckiest sons of bitches in Europe, he was there at D-Day. Storming the beaches of Normandy with the people he'd come to know as brothers, Greyson came face to face with a gatling gun, suffice to say, he didn't win.

When he woke up, there was a piece of shrapnel lodged in his neck. The traumatic event activated the metagene he possesses and he reflexively mimicked the material of the Czech hedgehog they decided to hide under. After dragging himself back up and removing the shrapnel, Greyson walked. The army considered him dead, so Greyson hitch-hiked his way back home and lived out his life with the realization that he was a metahuman. Years passed and Greyson never aged, it was, almost serene to him. Greyson used his new lease on life to pursue his ambition to be a lawyer. As he became accustomed to his power set, Greyson realized an entirely new aspect to them. He learned that he could forcibly drain another person of there life force to keep him young and make him strong. Dealing with his simultaneous fear of death and disgust with himself, Greyson uses his practice as a lawyer to single out guilty individuals and put them to a better use. Currently, he's set himself up as a defense attorney in Platinum Bay's magic district.

Alignment: Lawful Neutral, while knowing the law inside and out, Greyson knows that it's imperfect and he has personal qualms with himself.

Affiliation/Reputation: He's known as a pretty good defense attorney in the magic district with a reputation of never compromising in the face of defeat.

Resources: He's on the lower end of middle class. Approximately $1.4K in a savings account. Also, an office space in the Magic District that the uses for lawyering.

Equipment/Weaponry: Nothing but a nice ass suit, a tape recorder and a briefcase.
