**Toxic Scout** is a mutated PRL Scout TF2 Freak. He was created by GmodViolet.

His attack theme is Maximum Carnage OST SNES - Game Over and his attack theme is Maximum Carnage OST SNES - Boss Fight 1.

## Appearance

Toxic Scout appears as a purple skinned Scout with a dark shaded purple shirt. His left eye is bright and purplish while his right one is wounded and unlike other Scouts, he doesn't wear any headphones nor bag. Many injuries can be spotted on his body.

## Origin

Prior to becoming Toxic Scout, he used to be a regular RED mercenary who was doing whatever it takes to protect the intelligence at Thunder Mountain with very little amounts of opposing mercs. Even though the battles weren't tense, he was still keeping a close eye in the area alongside his secret girlfriend, a RED Femscout, despite the fact that the Administrator despises both relationships and friendships.

One day, the RED Femscout spotted a glimpse of a purple figure within the main area's cabin and notified her boyfriend about it before investigating the area together. Once there, they encountered the mysterious figure which was secreting poisonous substances from it's body with also it's back facing them. To their disgust, they learned that the figure was responsible for slaughtering the other mercenaries in the location and thus, decided to confront it.

But their anger and disgust quickly shifted to horror as the figure turned out to be a special kind of PRL Vagineer. As the mutant is about to physically touch his girlfriend, the Scout quickly draws his Soda Popper towards the monster's chest and shot him. The Scout took this opportunity to tell his girlfriend to run, to which she is reluctant to do. As the Scout tells her that he doesn't want her to get killed, even though he hasn't fought an opponent like this before, she agree and run off, hoping he will make it.

While the Scout has the upper-hand throughout most of the fight, he starts becoming overconfident and begins to mock his enemy to which the Vagineer uses this moment to attack him, greatly burning him. As the Vagineer is about to deliver a powerful spray of acidic vomit, he gets shot in the back by a RED Sniper brandishing a Shooting Star. Enraged, the malformed Engineer ran towards his hideout, with the Sniper meeting his gruesome demise. Feeling weak and disoriented, the Scout gathered all of his strength to get out of the location as fast as he could so the Vagineer doesn't chases him down. Later, he reached Sawmill and found shelter in the wood works. Still feeling very dizzy, he vomited on the wooden floor, wondering what was happening to him before realizing with a shock that his skin had turned purple.

A month later, the RED FemScout, who had taken all of this time looking for him, was happy and relieved to see her boyfriend again, saying she was worried sick about him. However, she turned scared and tearful at what really became of her lover. His skin was purple and his body featured lots of wounds. And worse, his personality had changed to being psychotic and insane. Then, the mutated Scout touched her skin which killed her as a result. After that, he started to wander around the world, looking for more victims to poison.

## Behavior and Personality

Before he became a mutant, Toxic Scout used to be laid-back and freedom-loving, akin to common Scouts. He also had his own girlfriend which he loved and protected. The only difference between him and other Scouts was that he had a secretive grudge against the Administrator for her callous and snobbish contempt towards anyone that possibly were in relationships/friendships of any sort, which was one of the reasons why he kept his relationship a secret within his own team for so long.

But once the tragedy unfolded with the PRL Vagineer, the monster's acidic liquids secreting from him had mutagenic properties, which drastically altered not only Toxic Scout's DNA, but especially his behaviour and overall personality. With the real RED Scout that the Femscout loved dear being no more, he was now reduced to be a psychotic monster that brings physical death and terror in wherever he encroaches.

Toxic Scout experiences zero remorse in his actions, which tragically drags who he was before through the gutter. And like all psychopaths, he is methodical and deranged, as well as emitting wheezing breathing, and chuckles maniacally. Furthermore, his favourite ways of tackling his victims is to lurk unknowingly throughout a specific area and once it's time to make his move, he will lunge at them by surprise and then effectively killing them on the spot.

## Powers and Abilities

The major ability of Toxic Scout is his toxic touch. When touching a person, this one will be poisoned only a few seconds after being touched and usually dies afterwards. He can also poison objects and weapons and then uses them against his opponents.

His body is completely poisonous, making melee opponents practically helpless against him.

When being seriously injured or being in a dangerous position, Toxic can use his ultimate toxic touch which is far more dangerous than his regular touches. This particular touch can poison a person being übercharged and is almost incurable.

Toxic Scout is immune to all types of poisons and has enhanced strength.
