Rivets

"I'm not a bad guy, I'm simply living the Dream: the land of opportunity.. well my dear that's what I am: an opportunist.." ~ Rivets (during a brief run-in with Jane Causeway)
Rivets is a powerful crime-lord who rivals Lenny in authority but seems to have influence over the international stage of crime rather than Lenny's more limited city-based scheming - Rivets is also much more of a businessman in his dealings and sees no problem in selling drugs, weapons and other horrors to the highest-bidders and doing away with rival gangs and businesses if they grow too powerful.
==Origin==
Born the son of a wealthy banker Rivets lived a happy and productive childhood yet continually showed signs of criminal behavior even at an early age, although his father wanted him to follow in his footsteps as a banker Rivets decided instead to set up his own company and this caused tension to grow between him and his father and the two never really patched things up.
Rivets company soon began to flourish despite rumors of corruption and criminal activities - Rivets was always mindful to keep himself out of trouble and although some people tried to expose his criminal dealings none of them survived to tell the court and any suspicion was either blamed on another individual or "paid off" with generous bribes.
Rivets started to draw the attention of Jane Causeway through his dealings with Lenny and she was amongst several law-enforcers caught in the crossfire of a gang-war between Boss-Man's forces and several unknown gangsters who Jane suspected were working for Rivets - this resulted in the death of a police officer and thus earned Rivets a place in Jane's list of criminals to bring to justice no matter the cost, for now however Rivets remains far too influential for Jane to take down and she must work on a way to expose his truth to the world before he can do any further harm to the world.
==Powers==
Rivets has no superhuman abilities but is a very wealthy and influential businessman and criminal who has an army of lawyers, thugs, employees and other contacts ready to come to his aid at the click of a button - he is also very adept at keeping his illegal dealings a secret and framing others if needed: he can outsmart many heroes and keep villains in line by sheer presence, being capable of intimidating even the most powerful of villains with his calm but deadly attitude and many underworld links.
