Felix Lord, born on the 12th of February, 1997, was the CEO and owner of Lord Innovations, previously known as Lord Incorporated. He was a known philanthropist and humanitarian, donating a part of his wealth to different charities around the globe upon his death. Felix was often regarded as the smartest man alive, or even in all of history. In his off-time, he was also known as the Spartan, a vigilante that terrified the criminals of New Spheris throughout his career.

## Biography

Felix was a single-child born into a rich family. His father was strict, cold, and calculated, while his mother was more understanding and kind. Nonetheless, even as a child, he was aware that they both loved him, or, at least, he hoped so.

Felix spent most of his childhood at home, having been home-schooled, however, in his final few years with his parents he went to a public school, and adjusted to life in the city. According to his father, they wanted him to understand those less fortunate than him.

Not too long after, his parents were murdered in a hit put out by Charles Khaos - later (during Caden's time) revealed to have been orchestrated by Project M, with Khaos used as a middle man, or a fall guy.

For the rest of his childhood, Felix grew up with his grandparents.

When he turned 20, Felix took control of his company and flipped his life around for good. In a year, he became one of the richest people in the world.

On the 15th of June, 2018, Felix witnessed the mugging of a young woman by the name of Alice Sheppard. While he had no training whatsoever, and most likely no way of helping, he was compelled to do so. That day marked Felix's greatest failure (in his own words), when he failed to save Alice, and was, himself, injured. The mugger ran free, as Felix lay in a pool of his own blood. At that moment, in the pouring rain, bleeding out on the ground - Felix took a vow (not a literal vow). That vow later evolved into the same one that Caden Foster took, after Felix's death. A vow of protecting this city with his life (at the time, it was obviously less dramatic).

Upon forcing early release from his own hospital, Felix returned to his home workshop, where it all began. By the next week, the first Spartan suit was fully prepared. A crimson knight of darkness and justice. The culmination of all of his military contracting - the most advanced suit known to man (at the time). The same day, he went out, expecting to easily apprehend anyone in his way, however, he soon received a reality check. Without knowing how to properly fight, or even throw a punch, Felix was beaten down with relative ease by the criminals he tried to fight. While the suit protected him, it didn't have many offensive capabilities, if any. He returned that day, injured and alone. He was not ready.

Over the next few months, Felix underwent rigorous training, where he turned his body into a weapon of war. Although, that was not enough. He learned multiple fighting styles for the moment, and mastered all he could.

He was ready.

On the 20th of October, The Spartan was finally born. While his first few encounters with criminals were still difficult, seeing as he'd never been in a proper fight, he slowly adjusted over the days, beginning his crusade to hunt down Alice's killer. Although he'd never formally added it to the vow, he kept himself from killing anyone, knowing that it would make him no better, no matter how much rage he felt.

Only the next week, after an encounter with the NSPD, where he escaped with relative ease, not needing to harm the officers, he finally found him. On the 24th of October, in an alleyway on Clover Lane, Felix had finally struck gold - the name and location of Alice's killer, an apartment only a few blocks away.

At precisely 22:34, 24th of October, 2018, on a Wednesday, he entered through a window on the 4th floor. The killer, who went by the alias of "Allan Delaney", was in the living room of the small apartment, watching TV with a beer in his hand. Supposedly, even up until his death, Felix could describe the apartment with staggering precision. Beige wallpaper, wooden flooring, brown sofa, a small flat-screen, and an unforgettable odor of beer and melancholy. While he stood in the shadows, he wasn't sure what to do. Although he'd rehearsed his actions for months, it was as if it all was forgotten, as he stood face-to-face with her killer. His own failure. Finally, he found the strength to do it, only when seeing the opportunity to do so - Delaney had knocked his beer over. Immediately, as the man reached to pick it up, he was pulled into the shadows.

Delaney tried to scream, but he found that he was unable to, his mouth being covered, as a blade pressed against his stomach, yet to injure him. The Spartan interrogated him, asking for his name. Mark Foster. His name was Mark Foster. He had a daughter, who was studying in Germany, but was meant to come home tonight. At any moment.

He couldn't do it. He had a family. Yet, he had to know, "Why did you kill her?". Naturally, he was only met with confusion. Although, immediately, the man remembered, as he covered his face and held back genuine sorrow. He didn't mean to kill her - he wanted to shoot Felix, out of self-defence. It was his fault Alice died. If he didn't get involved, she would've lived. As that dread settled in, he heard the door unlocking. As Delaney turned towards the door, he turned back, but Spartan was gone, the window left ajar.

That night, he returned to his home. The rage he felt was inexplicable. All the feelings rushing through his mind. He was his own worst enemy. While he was hunting Alice's killer for months, in truth, he was right in front of him. *He* was the killer. *He* was all that he hated.

In his indescribable rage, he gained a new target - the man who killed his parents, Charles Khaos.

Over the next year, he broke down Khaos' empire, slowly narrowing down his location, until he was finally prepared. The Spartan infiltrated Khaos' facility, taking down any of his goons that were put in his way, although, they fought to a standstill. Khaos' serum ran out, as Felix's armour was severely damaged, barely operational. In an attempt to keep him from escaping, Felix sliced his femoral artery, giving him 5 minutes until bleeding out, unless given proper medical attention. Lucky for them, it was only a minute until ZION arrived on the scene. Khaos was finally incapacitated. Although the encounter brought him to his lowest point, nearly breaking the oath he took to protect all life - he stayed close to his ideology.

Out of sheer pettiness, according to his last promise to Khaos, he found a place in hell for him. After multiple months, TARTARUS was created. Immediately, Khaos was transferred to the H-Wing. The H-Wing was simply, for the worst of the worst. In fact, it was located directly in hell. Felix spent billions in technology and research to break through Hell's barrier, purely out of pettiness. In his own words, it was the pettiest thing he'd ever done, but he would do it again in a heartbeat.

After the encounter, he felt he needed to find himself, and finally cement his morals, and become stronger, to make sure nothing similar would ever happen. After a few months, he returned. By that point, he mastered every fighting style, and had even beaten his own masters at the time. When he stepped foot into his city, he was no longer a man. He was the icon of fear itself. He was the Spartan.

Over the next decade, he learned from his mistakes, and perfected his craft.

During his attack on Khaos, an apartment building had collapsed, which is where he failed to save Alex's parents. That failure haunted him for years, along with every other failure. Alex was left alone, and wandered into one of Spartan's rifts, from when he shattered reality on a universal scale. The rift trapped Alex inside for decades, pulling him out once the rifts were all closed. By the time he came out, he was in his mid-20s, while only a few years had passed in the outside world.

On the mark of his 12th year as the Spartan, Felix encountered Alex and Massacre in a warehouse on 34 Willow Avenue. Inside the warehouse was a hostage situation, where Felix was killed protecting the hostages. While he haunted the minds of the criminal underworld for 12 years straight, he was only human. At the very least, he died upholding his oath - the hostages were saved.

After his death, according to his will, all information about him was released. He was immediately placed in New Spheris' hero museum, where the Spartan exhibit was updated with new information - his identity. Also according to his will, a part of his wealth was donated to charity, while the rest remained to his next successor, information that was private to the public. Following was a private funeral, where the Llazurian generals and the King attended, all of which he had saved. Rhys Scott, Steve Hayes, Max Watt, Adam Hathaway, Timeslip, and the Spartan were all present.

His story had finally ended, and it was time for his successor to step into the spotlight.
