## **History:**

Dylan West; is a former high school student
that volunteered at a lab working on groundbreaking experiments. After the
scientist, Dr. Henry Williams was starting a series of tests to create a
meta-human soldier. The CEO of C-Industries: Vincent Adonis, buying out the
small corporation he would shut down most projects but still had an interest in
Project: Soldier. Launching a series of tests they are forced into doing human

Despite being hesitant Dr. Williams agrees and proceeds. For nearly three weeks
he starts the preparation serums but after an assassin visits Dr. Williams he
is threatened to have results by tonight. After Dylan is taken as they begin
the final preparations for Project: Soldier. With Vincent Adonis on the way, he
watches over the experiment from his Limo. With the experiment a success he
tells the scientist to initiate the clean-slate protocol. Having misgivings he
agrees but begins learning their plans for the experiments in the future. After
learning of their horrific plans he returns to the lab and starts burning all
of his research setting the lab on fire waking up Dylan West telling him he
must go. On the way out Dylan faces off against 21 armed men and manages to use
his new heightened abilities to escape. Vincent shows up in the remains of the
lab and shoots the scientist. When Dylan returns to the warehouse he sees that
there is nothing left and finds out someone is covering up his and Dr.
William's mysterious disappearances. Three weeks pass by and people start
saying they were saved by a masked vigilante. Alicia Hunters begin looking for
leads on this vigilante in the city and lands herself into trouble; the
vigilante saves her and asks her for help. Dylan would confide in her asking
her for help managing to find a lead. Learning the doctor is dead he seemingly
finds the murderer and takes him out.

Dylan West started his life normal. Living
every day unaware of the secrets his closest friend Michael was carrying or the
idea of meta-humans, He was a very reason/Explanatory guy. There was always an
explanation for everything when Alicia would go off on a crazy tangent. He
would work with Alicia Hunters closely in the School News Paper. He was very
sarcastic but a person who would never shy away from having a good time.
Friendly, outgoing, and with strong morality he was born into a family of crime
fighters. His father is the well known and legendary Detective James West would
be known for solving some of the most difficult crimes. Detective James West a
great caring father, loving husband, and dedicated worker. Dylan’s father is an
amazing guy a man of few words. You could always count of James West to say
something clever, and witty as a comeback. These qualities all inherent in
Dylan West. Dylan and his father among everyone else had a close relationship.

Dylan would volunteer himself in an experiment
that would change his life forever. PROJECT: SOLDIER, a top-secret experiment a
scientist jump started would be working with Dylan months before volunteering
himself to test the soldier project. While the project showed promise many saw
potential in what was being planned. Funded by Vincent Adonis, the CEO played
the experiment close to his chest. The subject was set to be held and tested
rigorously his strength, speed, stamina, etc. The goals of the experiment were
intended to make a soldier one that was all around unstoppable. After the
experiment was a success Dylan would come to in a lab. Being set free by the
scientist, after an unethical call to make his mind a blank slate. Dylan would
manage to escape. For months Dylan would fight against the criminals of the
city. Saving lives, Dylan made a name for himself as a vigilante. Saving people
and disappearing Patriot would slowly make people aware he was around. Patriot
in the early days was avoiding returning home afraid that his family wouldn’t
accept him, eventually, agents hired by Vincent made Dylan feel that as long as
he keeps his distance from them they are safe. Vincent despite his involvement
in the project was kept in the dark about who the subject was. After the
scientist set Dylan free refusing to take away Dylan’s memories the doctor
would be killed by Vincent Adonis and the vigilante would be hunted.
Information, for the most part, was burned before the doctor’s death to prevent
any duplication of the project. While on his own as a vigilante Dylan would
save people and make an old warehouse his home sleeping there. Michael Daversa
and Christina DiBella tried to track him down countless times landing them in
dead ends.

Alicia Hunters, however, would help the
vigilante and become someone who he confided in. Alicia helping him find leads
and in some serious cases, she would be the ultimate ally. Alicia Hunters is a
girl with a nose for news and journalism, the person that inspired Michael into
the role of investigative journalism. Alicia, Michael, Dylan, and Sajjid are
close friends. Alicia is smart and computer savvy and despite her lack of
special abilities she has saved the team and serves as a hub of information in
the Warehouse and if she isn’t there she is in the Ledger working on a story.
Alicia despite her ties to Michael leaves and works closely with Dylan. Alicia
before Sarah’s first account of Patriot they had been speaking at the time it
was not known that it was Dylan her high school best friend. Despite her
reporter-like charm she decided to not tell anyone of their working together in
the middle of the night. Alicia has short blonde hair wears glasses sometimes.
She is a girl that knows her way around a computer. Alicia knew Dylan before
meeting Michael. Alicia had before knowing Michael’s story had believed that
there were people with special abilities hiding in plain sight. Alicia has a
romantic relationship with Patriot one that is very complex.

With the help of Alicia, The vigilante would
help Alicia land stories that were a reporter's dream and solve various cases.
Respecting their friendship she named him Patriot and saw him as a friend
protecting his secret. Meanwhile Detective West never giving up hope on his son
would look and search going so far as to ask The Outsider to help him find
Dylan or learn what happened to his son. Patriot for years would keep a lookout
for his father protecting him from the shadows. Patriot would save a girl Sarah
DiBella, a cousin to Christina, and a friend of Michael’s. After the Patriot’s
heroics in the city Michael and Christina would be on the trail of Patriot.
Meanwhile, Sarah would try to find leads on her own sparking a fire for
journalism. Alicia would step back however in helping with the story, due to
her past connections to Patriot. Sarah and Michael working on the story for the
first time together they would try to learn more about him. Patriot would save
Michael and Sarah from agents hired to detain Patriot and that was about to
attempt at killing him. Patriot at that moment pieces together the fact that
Michael is the Outsider. After discovering his identity Patriot would show up
again and encounter Michael in the same alley where he saved Sarah. After their
encounter, Michael would pull off the black mask and learn where Dylan has been
all this time. Patriot clearing up past suspicions that he was not involved in
the murders in the lab or the other’s he was wanted for. Learning Vincent
Adonis killed the doctor Dylan became enraged and would attack him in his
mansion taking out security and agents to get to him. Ready to go in for the
kill Patriot would choose not to kill him. After Dylan would stay in Michael’s
garage for a few weeks before hacking into systems to make the warehouse belong
to a mystery owner. Dylan now owning the warehouse would turn it into a base of
operations inventing countless security countermeasures and defenses as well as
tech and equipment for his crusade. Dylan however in secret would work on an
underground basement of the warehouse utilizing tunnels in the old abandoned
sewer and subway lines. Completing the warehouse to be the ultimate base of
operations he would still trust Alicia to help him. Dylan would also stay
friends with Michael keeping in touch and helping out in the city as Patriot.

With things changing Dylan began to go back to
who he was but knew he couldn’t return to the life he left behind. Dylan
fearing for the life of his family would refuse to return home and try not to
get them involved in the life he has in him now. Jason West, Dylan’s younger
brother would begin sneaking out to find the hero that inspired him looking for
answers Jason would believe that Dylan is alive and Patriot could help him.
After his brother goes missing Jason looks for Dylan and is eager to find out
where he is feeling deep down his brother may still be alive. Jason when he
first starts out is not a very well trained character in fact Dylan saves his
life. Jason had taken self-defense from his father a detective for the NYPD, Jason
worked into looking for what he could find and Dylan tried to keep him out of
the fight. Jason eager to help and being stubborn leaps into the action after
he nearly dies, Dylan promises he will train him and he will not do anything
until he sees fit. Jason actually leads Dylan to come back home. Jason is very
heavily inspired by Patriot and driven by the aspiration to be like his older
brother. Jason is still young and searching for his path and believes that the
hero work is the path he wants to take. Much like Dylan, he is sarcastic, and
trained to be a good leader; sometimes letting emotions get the better of
him.

Jason would catch Patriot and The Outsider’s
attention after being hurt they would bring him to the warehouse and save his
life. There Jason would learn his hero was his brother. Dylan would face the
issues of him leaving his home and being Patriot. Jason would train with Dylan
and learn how to fight and become a vigilante of his own. After a few months,
Dylan would be convinced to go home to let his parents know the truth that he
is alive. But then would leave again Dylan’s father and Jason would be the only
people to know the truth of him being Patriot. Dylan would time and again visit
his family. While training his younger brother he would deal with the
frustration of Jason wanting to be out there with him but for his safety was
not allowing him. Jason would eventually disobey orders and in turn, save
Dylan’s life.

Years later someone would begin to follow in
Patriot’s footsteps making a repeat of stopping similar crimes and similar
incidents with Michael early on as Patriot. Dylan would be tracked down by a
girl, Susan Saunders, a subject from the Soldier project one that was working
with Vincent Adonis. While working with Vincent Adonis she would have her
memories but would have a few issues with her memories overlapping what
Patriot’s memories are. She would have an encounter that would set things
straight. After being experimented on to do the experiment that made Patriot
they decided to alter her and give most of Dylan’s past memories. Susan would
work with Vincent Adonis to and be manipulated into believing she was helping
the right side. She would repeat the same things that Patriot did in the first
few weeks that he was around, including saving Sarah. After she would destroy
the warehouse where Project: Soldier took place. Susan is an altered spitting
image of Dylan. She is confident, spunky, smart and sarcastic, with a sexy
side. She and Dylan have some undeniable chemistry. She, however, is not as
much of an expert fighter and is trained by Dylan. Wants desperately to be
called Arsenal but Dylan and others refuse. To most she is known as
Patriot-girl, or Commander Girl, ignoring Dylan’s request to not call her that.
She is around Dylan's age they both train and spar together Susan, however, operates
moving city to city. Dylan has invented and created many gadgets and tech he
uses to operate as Patriot. Dylan's intellect is incredible helping prior to
the experiment to make it and testing it on himself. Part of the scientist's
motives for stopping his experiment was fearing that his employer was plotting
something horrible with the experiment if the results worked according to plan.
After the test he had the serum help add to his intellect. Dylan is one of the
greatest heroes fighting the good fight alongside, and keeping up with some of
the most powerful heroes, standing against some of the deadliest and
challenging threats.

He is above average his intellect is boosted
due to the serum. One of Earth’s greatest heroes and ultimate soldier. Dylan
has his abilities heightened. Dylan faces many peculiar and odd predicaments.
Dylan at times is the guy of optimism and the one that holds the Outcastes
together. Dylan can be optimistic and at times very unpredictable. Dylan would
take on Anthony Daversa when he was at his most powerful sacrifice his life and
take Anthony down in the process. Dylan has designed and invented most of the
weapons and defenses for the warehouse. Dylan has developed security and many
weapons. Dylan is nice, sarcastic, compassionate, and optimistic at times. 90%
of the time he is correct and pursues being a hero and never hesitates to do
what he feels is right. Dylan’s favorite subjects are math and physics. Dylan
enjoys drawing, writing, and reading literature as well as inventing. Dylan
patrols the streets of the city as Patriot, utilizing the symbol of an oval
because of its simplicity and the fact that it was engraved into the gun used
to kill the scientist Dylan has very few love interests, Alicia Hunters being
one of them.

Dylan is the heartbeat of the team. He has
however made mistakes like any hero. Dylan having serious encounters with The
Prankster. Dylan would always be pushed to the limit by this enemy. The only
one to ever push him dangerously close to killing. The sick sadistic killer
clown that rules the crime world. With no special abilities, and just nothing
but strategy and sadistic imagination. He is a murderer, a sick man that uses
fear intimidation, and the element of surprise to kill anyone he feels like killing.
No Alias, Nor a hint of his past or his origin. He is a highly intelligent
mastermind that gets into your head and tries to get the better of you by
making you cross the line. Often wreaking more havoc than even some of the
meta-humans they face he is a deadly foe to cross paths with. A psychopath with
a warped distorted comical sense of humor. This is a foe that typically has
crossed the line to make others cross the line. The Prankster usually deals
with The Patriot but isn't limited to him but goes after other people such as
Night Prowler, Outsider, etc. An adversary that proves time and time again that
you need to expect the unexpected. The Prankster has no remorse feels no guilt
but enjoys inflicted pain on others. After Patriot would seemingly kill
Prankster. Michael and Dylan being put at odds isn’t something that is rare but
for the first time, these friends would have a very strained relationship.
After Prankster’s return, Dylan would believe he was seeing illusions and
feeling the guilt from taking his life on the rooftop. Michael and Alicia would
disprove that however discovering a body was never found. They would revisit
the events that took place that night.

Prankster would take a girl and hold her
hostage making his way to the rooftop Patriot would make his way there leading
to a standoff. Dylan would hold him close to the edge at the gunpoint The
Outsider would try to defuse the situation. The girl would be killed after a
gunshot to the head Dylan would unload a clip into Prankster as he falls over
the ledge of the rooftop. Michael would not be able to stop this in time and
would blame himself and Dylan for crossing the line. They would go back to
being the friends they once were as Michael and Alicia would help pull him
back.
