Sircuit (The info section.)


In a recent moment of self discovery, the inventor/weaponsmith formerly known as Inspector Gizmo decided that letting NoFace pick his code name when she was drunk had, in fact, been a mistake. But upon failure to come up with a new one on his own, waited for her to destroy one of her automated parts before asking her to try again. It didn't take long.

She searched her mind as he reassembled some synaptic relays in her spine. And then it came to her as she got a shock that, for some reason, made her hand shake. "Circuit," she said. "Only spelled with a 'sir'. I dunno maybe it will make it look like you were appointed to do this stuff by a queen?"
That would do, he nodded. And thus the name was changed.

He's Sircuit now. Got that?

I'm glad we had this little talk.

Sircut is the quiet member of this team unless prompted on the right subject. Rather, he has chosen to express himself in the things he creates, often from found objects. There is nothing he can't make given enough time.

Recently, he found himself with a new assignment. "This is NoFace. Her last fix-it guy took a bullet to the face when he crossed a wire wrong. She breaks herself a lot. Have fun with that."

"Yeah. I know her. Worked with her once or twice. Wasn't she the one who bullet sprayed the lair of Chestee-Hee a few years ago? Oh yeah. That was her." He chucked a bit. "That was funny."

This is being looked upon as an opportunity to try new things. Infinity ammo clip. Perhaps some form of faster propulsion. She's a heavy figure (no offense), and could be deadlier at higher speeds. What fun! He'd never worked with a cyborg like this before.

Most don't know it, and he's not one to brag, but Sircuit could (potentially) be very rich. He has claimed patents on all sorts of inventions in the past few years. But the money just keeps running out. "Could possibly have something to do with the oversized sub-basement I'm renting. Or that space station thing I've been working on. It all just kind of ... goes away."

He has chosen to outfit himself with a small air cannon capable of leveling anything from a petunia plant to a small house. Static Cans (small grenade-like devices that scramble any electronic signal not already protected by a patch signal), noise diffusers, a coat of chameleon cloth, ... well ... he has deep pockets in that coat. It's kind of like Batman's belt minus the carousel reversal spray. So who knows what he has in there.

He does have one given power. The ability to neutralize anger. He is nearly impossible to hate, no matter what he does. Though he is cautious and hardly ever tests it, it is not above him to be purposefully irritating knowing no one will get *that* mad about it. Even the queen of angry, NoFace herself, is not immune ... much to her agitation.
