Slayer

Real Name: Aric Carver
Background: Slayer is the brother of the superhuman mercenary called Diehard. Both were part of a supersoldier program in an unknown country, and gained a variety of superhuman powers. After a career as a mercenary and assassin, Slayer was offered the leadership of the Lawgivers by Doctor Omega, and served as Omega's chief lieutenant and enforcer for some years.
Slayer was responsible for the assassination of Jason Smith, the first Protector. Although Inferno killed Slayer in the immediate aftermath of Smith's death, Slayer evidently resurrected himself some time later by a process that has not been completely explained. Slayer returned to his former role in Transasia as if nothing had happened.
