Biography[]

Early life[]

Ned Creegan was a petty criminal who did prison time for stealing a minivan.

When the A.S.A. discovered he had powers, Ned was trained to become a soldier and assassin by Commander Carson Williams and was dispatched to fight in every war zone on the planet. He became disillusioned with his country due to the amount of people he was forced to kill and defected to Markovia.[1]

Death[]

Arriving in Freeland alongside a Markovian special ops strike team, Ned attacked a meta-human containment unit. He was also carrying a meta-human virus curated by Dr. Helga Jace, which infected many of the meta-humans being detained[2]. He took out many A.S.A. guards with ease and was confronted by Commander Williams. Ned and Williams fought, and Williams managed to snap Ned's neck after getting the upper-hand by mimicking his powers.[1]
