Nemesis

## Backstory

Before 2040, he was a normal citizen of Manhattan, a proud patriot and Ex-Marine for his country. He was a bit skeptical about the introduction of superheroes, however he grew used to them. However during a giant fight, his entire neighbourhood was destroyed, killing everyone except for him, as upon the injuries, he healed in a minute or two. However, due to the death of all his friends and family, he hated seeing superheroes, being a bit biased but saying that collateral damage was more than possible, and tried to outlaw superheroes, but was dismissed. In pure anger, he got into alcoholism, spiralling into a deep depression. Eventually, he was recruited to be part of a mercenary group known as the Red Soldiers, a criminal group of Ex-Soldiers that disliked superheroes. He quickly green within the ranks, however they were found out, and destroyed. He was sent to prison for life due to his crimes. However they did not realize that he had superpowers, and he broke out with ease, donning the moniker “Nemesis” and vowed to kill every superhero, no matter if they deserved it.
