Mido Khouri AKA Shutterbug is the owner of zERO Aperture, a photo studio which doubles as a headquarters for his gang. The gang specializes in human trafficking as well as production of various erotic imagery. Due to the large amount of income the gang generates, zERO Aperture has become a place frequented by many loan sharks who often provide Shutterbug with most of his models.

## Appearance

Shutterbug is a lightly tanned man of average height and build. His hair is a greyish blue and is almost always slicked back. He wears a blue unaffiliated letterman jacket with beige sleeves and a red t-shirt underneath. Due to his sensitivity to light he wraps his eyes in bandages which work similarly to sunglasses. (Though when asked about it he says bandages are better.) He is never seen without a camera on him and has various smaller ones hidden on himself at all times.

## Backstory

Born in Egypt, Mido was sent to America to live with his uncle at a young age. His uncle was the one who bought him his first camera. Since then Mido's interest in photography skyrocketed he started the photography club in his high school and decided to major in photography upon reaching college. After taking interest in his considerable photography skills Mido was approached by some thugs and was blackmailed into taking some photos for them. Mido reluctantly did the job and was paid well for it. Seeing that he could make a considerable amount of money doing crime he dropped out of college and searched for a place where his skills could be used. He then met the leader of the Century Notes, a group of loan sharks that hired him after witnessing him snap a perfect photo of a boob from 4 buildings away. Since then he took up the name Shutterbug and from there Mido learned the ins and outs of being a criminal and fully developed his photography abilities. After a long run with the Century Notes the boss thought Shutterbug was capable of starting his own gang and recommended that he did. Shutterbug went off to create zERO Aperture which became a large partner to many loan sharks across the Grey Zone.

## Personality

Before his life of crime Shutterbug was was very passionate about photography and was always happy to talk about it with anyone who would listen. He had a few friends and was relatively introverted. His personality took a sharp turn after getting into crime becoming more extroverted and serious about his work. He frequently speaks in a suggestive manner towards women often making sexual innuendos however he is often flustered when the opposite occurs.

## Abilities

* **Mannequin Creation:** Shutterbug can take photos of a subject and slowly turn them into a mannequin after several photoshoots. The mannequin is a slender grey figure with no facial features. In their standard form they are usually used by Shutterbug to do menial labor as well as defense. On command however the mannequin can mimic it's previous form where it can then be used for photoshoots. Since creating a mannequin is a lengthy process it is never used while fighting.
* **Teleportation:** Shutterbug can teleport short distances (1-5 meters) by using the flash on any camera. This versatile power is his main ability which doubles as both an offensive and defensive move. By using the rolling shutter on a camera he can quickly teleport away from an enemy or deliver a flurry of blows in rapid succession. However teleporting too much can make him nauseous.
* **Enhanced Vision:** Despite his appearance Shutterbug possesses superhuman vision, being able to make out writing from long distances and seeing clearly in darkness or fog.
* **Divine Intervention:** Shutterbug is in contact with a higher being known as NoShame. Although mostly useless and condescending NoShame often provides guidance and wisdom to Shutterbug which almost always never works.
