The Saboteur

The Saboteur is an antihero and member of the League of Heroes. They previously demonstrated technopathic abilities and the ability to amplify technology-based powers, but after failing to save someone close to them with their powers they disavowed technopathy and all rampant technological advancement. They instead use their power to create tech dampening fields.
The Saboteur first appeared as the campy 1980s technology inspired superhero Megabyte. They used this identity until the death of their teenaged sidekick Kilobyte during an alien invasion. Kilobyte perished while using armor that had been supercharged by Megabyte's powers. The Saboteur blames First Gear, the creator of the armor, for Kilobyte's death and is engaged in an endless feud against First Gear and his family.
They are the arch nemesis of First Gear but also oppose other 'evil genius' type villains, as well as people and corporations that pursue technological advancement by any means possible, or ones that destroy the environment or people through technology for the sake of greed.
They lack full control over their tech-dampening powers and often create unintended consequences when pushing them too far or in areas with sensitive technology. The powers will shut down technology indiscriminately, beginning with the most sophisticated technology but potentially working their way up to negating simple machines or the laws of science.
Due to their tragic past with teenage sidekicks they fundamentally oppose teenagers being involved in crime fighting.Category:B-Verse
