Who he is:
A 22-year-old prodigy in biomedical engineering and cybernetics, Quintus is one of the youngest scientists ever recruited by the government. His brilliance caught the attention of Alcamex, who offered him unlimited resources and access to classified research. On the surface, Quintus is polite, composed, and methodical—but beneath that calm intellect lies curiosity bordering on obsession.

Backstory:
Quintus grew up idolizing innovation, believing science could save the world. Raised in an environment that praised intellect over empathy, he learned early that emotions were “inefficiencies.” When his university project—a prototype AI designed to save lives—was confiscated by the government for military purposes, he became disillusioned but also hungry for control over his own creations.

On his way to begin work at Alcamex’s facility, his transport was intercepted by a motorcycle crash involving a fugitive named Xavier. When gang members surrounded them, Quintus activated his cybernetic watch, revealing his secret combat mode—a self-defense protocol of his own design. That encounter changed his outlook: for the first time, he saw how the chaos of the real world intersected with the science he’d kept confined to labs and equations.

Powers/Abilities:

• Cybernetic Watch: A multi-functional device connected to nanotech implants in his body. When activated, it enhances his strength, reflexes, and tactical awareness—turning him into a living weapon.

• Genius-Level Intellect: Exceptional in robotics, biotechnology, and energy systems. He designs gadgets and exosuits capable of rivaling even superhuman abilities.

• Strategic Mind: Thinks several moves ahead, analyzing opponents with surgical precision.

Role:
Quintus represents the bridge between science and morality. Initially loyal to Alcamex out of ambition and fascination, he slowly begins to see the corruption behind the company’s goals. His inventions, meant to protect humanity, become tools of control. Over time, he questions whether intellect without conscience makes him any different from the monsters he helps create.

He’s a morally gray figure—not a villain, not a hero, but someone teetering on the edge of both. His arc may lead him to defect from Alcamex, using his genius to dismantle what he helped build… or to become something far more dangerous if his ideals are shattered.
