## Bio

Echo is a trained killer and a bodyguard, and carries out most of the plans for the notorious Flash Raiders.

Jonathan Crane grew up in a family dedicated to the concept of justice. His father was the chief of police and enforced harsh house rules on him. Bit by bit, Crane adapted to his father's ways of justice. When he was 19, he served in the police force. But he was susceptible to one thing: money.

People bribed him to let them go. He pretended not to see others make their mistakes. Eventually, he gave up on fighting for the police. He abandoned the police force and worked as a hired gun for a while. Eventually he was picked up by the unrivaled crime gang known as the Flash Raiders. They picked him up and he joined the team. Equipping him with gear of their kind, he was assigned the position of grunt work, carrying out the plans and laying cover fire.

Now, Crane serves under the alias of "Echo", and is known for doing the heavy duty work of heists. His intimidating size and heavy weaponry makes him a fearsome criminal.
