Seth Chase, better known as Flood, is a major antagonist of The Saviors of Sunset City. He is a mutant best known for being the former nemesis of Terraformer. He became an honorary member of the Echelon Eight.
== Personality ==
While on the surface, Flood is tough and aggressive, on the inside he is a caring soul who wishes no harm. He is also a professional swimmer.
== History ==
=== Origin Story ===
Flood was one of several victims of the Sunken Earth incident caused by Terraformer, having his family swept away in the catastrophe. Orphaned and alone, he eventually found solace within Hopkins House, joining the Operator after he promised Flood the revenge he craved against Terraformer.
=== The Saviors of Sunset City ===
Flood's first proper appearance was shortly after the encounter with Blight, wherein he caused havoc on the beach. After Oracle got the idea to harden Flood's at-the-time liquid body with sand, Big Red threw White Lion through Flood's body, to no avail. Big Red threw a boulder of sand at Flood, some of it sticking, and White Lion used his ice cards to freeze part of him. This gave the Eight a good amount of solid material to attack. After this, the tidal wave Flood manifested at the beginning of the battle crashed down onto the shore, fully sweeping the Alchemist under the water and dealing heavy damage to those not shielded by Oracle's psionic sphere. Terraformer, heavily damaged, remarked that that was what killing someone's parents did to someone, before using his terrakinesis to quake the ground and hurl a huge amount of sand at Flood, slowing him down. Oracle used her mind magic to attempt to calm Flood, eventually bringing him down to earth and prompting Flood to break down crying.
Flood truly felt awful for what he'd done, and mentioned how he was blinded by revenge. Terraformer then hugged Flood, and Flood acknowledged that you cannot change the past. Terraformer and Flood were soon joined by the others in the hug, and Flood forgave Terraformer for what had happened. Flood made sure that the Eight received the tape he had been given by the Operator, and joined them as an honorary member to repent for his sins.
Flood aided Normalcy and Spinflux in preventing the Hader Labs collapse, and witnessed the birth of Freefall.
Flood was present for the battles against the Ging Gongs and Phantasm, but did not do much of note in either encounter.
