Starkiller

Introduction:

Colm Stanley was one of the last volunteers involved with the Starbreaker Initiative. After passing his screening and training he was placed in the Wolf Pack squad. His boss was Vincent Rayner. He served 2 years in the squad but was growing disenchanted with the job, he thought he would be paid a lot more money. Unlike the rest of the volunteers who enlisted to perform a necessary service, Colm wanted to get paid. He quit the squad a year before it was disbanded, effectively going AWOL.

Gotta get paid:

Colm quit the Starbreakers with his armor and his desire to make big bucks. It didn't take him long to hook up with some undesireables and began robbing banks and armored cars. The crimes were easy with the use of the suit but Colm was spending money faster than he could earn it. As his exploits grew he began to draw the attention of not only superheroes but supervillains as well. His association with the villain Cold War eventually led him to encounter Dr. Destroyer. The good doctor offered Colm a trade. He would improve his armor and make him a super class villain, if he could steal a few items from various locations around Millenium City. Colm quickly said yes and within a month he had all the items Destroyer wanted. The doctor kept his word and allowed Colm access to some of his brightest engineers. They developed a power armor based off of the Starbreaker/Roin'esh technology hybrid orginally developed by the Department of Homeland Security. Colm loved his new armor and knew that his future was going to be bright and lucrative. Because he detested his former organization and his former boss, Colm adopted the name Starkiller and made it a point to hunt down and kill any previous Starbreakers he could find.

 Fractured Mind: 

After killing several former members of the Starbreakers and discovering that they had disbanded, Colm had the unfortunate luck of encountering "the" Starbreaker. The battle was short and violent and left Colm running and hiding to avoid being captured by his former boss. This dramatic loss caused Colm's mind to fracture. His hate began to grow and his entire life became a series of robberies to aquire more advanced technology in order to further improve his armor so he could destroy Starbreaker. His damaged psyche resulted in two distinct personalities. One personality was Colm the Bully, who relishes headlong assaults and brute force to get what he wants The other was Starkiller, a brilliant thinker who knew how to work on advanced technology and prefered ambush tactics to end battles quickly. What Colm doesn't realize is that his fractured psyche is a result of Dr. Destroyer tampering with his armor. The doctor used a form of roin'esh organic technology that was absorbed into Colm's brain and over the course of several weeks it took root, thus causing the split. The alien organism has grown to its fullest and Colm's brain will ever be of two minds. There have been several instances of Destroyer using Starkiller to perform various nefarious deeds without Colm ever being aware.

Starkiller Tech:

The Starkiller armor contains several assault forms as well as defensive and offense-enhancing capabilities. All facets of the armor are powered by the Starbreaker power core. Main attack forms include an armor debilitating mini-machine gun and micro-munitions batteries that use high energy rounds fabricated within the breastplate of the armor. Secondary assault forms include powered gauntlets and a chest beam that can destabilize opponent armor. Several devices have been included in the latest version of the armor to enhance the core attacks enabling Starkiller to drop enemies quickly and efficiently. With all of these enhancements the energy usage is far more extreme than the Starbreaker armor which requires Starkiller to end battles quickly. Protracted battles will cause his suit to power down in order to re-energize.
