Kreetch
Character Information
History
Waclaw Kritchinsky was born in Phoenix, Arizona (USA) in 2003, the only child of Stefan and Maria Kritchinsky.
His mutation manifested itself when Waclaw hit puberty in 2018, as he started to emit dangerous levels of radioactivity. His parents were approached by the scientists of the Pandora Project, who created a special suit of body armor for him, in exchange for letting them study the boy. Waclaw stayed as an in-patient until late June 2020.
Personality
Waclaw is very protective of his teammates and of the people close to him, to the point of over-protectiveness. He has been known to neglect his own safety in order to safeguard that of others.
Even before his confinement to a protective suit, Waclaw was an introverted child who exhibited self-image issues and bouts of depression.
Abilities
Waclaw's unique mutation is slowly transforming him into a sentient mass of radioactive plasma.
Equipment
Waclaw's blue-and-gold armor is powered by his body's own natural radioactivity and by highly efficient solar panels located on the armor's shoulder pads. Specially-programmed nanites maintain the suit's integrity and functions.
In addition to keeping his radioactivity in check, this armor increases Waclaw's strength and durability to meta-human levels and enables him to fly.
Miscellanea
As some people have mistakenly assumed, Kreetch is not affiliated with Crey Industries or its "Paragon Protectors", despite the similarity of his power armor's color scheme.
