## Abilities and Powers

Zeno is known to be a Brute, though of unknown specifications. He has shown greatly enhanced strength, though still in the low-to-mid range for many Brutes. He has shown the ability to lift several tons with some effort. He has minorly enhanced durability, enough that small arms are less than lethal to him.

Zeno's actual power is his bodies ability to perfectly restore itself every minute to pristine, one hundred percent functional condition. Any injuries, regardless of their severity, are instantly reverted. The process has never actually been recorded occurring, suggesting it happens in a fraction of a second. PRO, along with Zeno and other Silvers, state that the ability isn't regeneration– at least not in the traditional sense. Additionally, Zeno is thought to not feel pain or at least experience it at severely muted levels; his stamina is also greatly enhanced.

Most notable, Zeno's ability is able to restore his body to working condition even if he would have otherwise died or bled out.

In addition to refreshing his body, Zeno's clothing and costume are also refreshed to pristine condition (or at least the condition before his last refresh). It is unknown how this power would interact with firearms or similar items with ammunition. It is assumed they would refresh like the rest of him.

Like most Brutes, it would be unlikely that he could turn this power off.

### Immortality

Once Zeno took command of the Silvers, and his power was described, one of the first questions to be raised is if Zeno was/is immortal. It would stand to reason if, his power refreshed his body once a minute, that he would never age more than that. During his official introduction, he was revealed to have previously been part of a PRO Strike Team for an indeterminate number of years, suggesting Zeno is far older than he appears to be. He has not revealed his age and has not shown any desire to.

## Appearance

Zeno wears a gray bodysuit with a number of tan plates over his chest and vitals. It has a high collar that protects his neck. The costume has a number of buckles and straps that hold his body armor together, as well as the bulky utility belt. He covers his face behind a tan face plate. It has been noted to be particaurly utilitarian, fairly reminiscent of military body armor. Comparisons have been drawn to Deacon in the past.

He has dark brown hair. He is noted by his teammates to be fairly average looking.

## Personal

Zeno rarely makes public appearances, though is still popular with a certain subset of fans. He is largely seen as dark and mysterious, several rumors persisting about just exactly who he is. Some claim he is ex-special forces or CIA, working with PRO on any number of clandestine operations. Other says he is a mercenary who has worked with two dozen governments in a dozen wars. More ludicrous claims suggest he is an ex-assassin or KGB, working with PRO in a plea deal. Whatever his origin, he is popular if not aloof.

He has shown impeccable leadership skills and is known to work closely with PRO agents, giving them support as the rest of the team cover one another.

## History

Was previously on an undisclosed PRO Strike Team for an undisclosed amount of time. In 2009, after War Room and a number of other Silvers died during the Calamity Surtur's attack on Toronto, Ontario, he was chosen to lead the team.

## Trivia

* Zeno was a Greek philosopher best known for his paradoxes, suggesting Zeno views his power as such.
