He was laying on the porch of his small house covered in a thin layer of snow. Lena returned some time after, and was shocked to find Sasha had returned. He had been missing for several weeks. In the days that followed Sasha attempted to return to a normal life, but he found the difficulties insurmountable. Controlling his modified body and limbs was difficult, fine motor control was all but lost and several walls suffered the consequences as Sasha attempted to master his new limbs. As the surgical wounds healed, the pain remained, and only Sasha's iron will allowed him to continue to function. Lena was unable to cope with the changes that were inflicted on her lover. She left a shame-filled goodbye letter for Sasha to find one morning, having packed a suitcase and fled in the night as he slept. This was more than the usually stoic Russian could bear. All of the repressed grief and anguish of previous years boiled up as he found himself well and truly alone, and the childhood home that had sheltered Sasha and his family for years was reduced to rubble by the raging cyborg.</div><br> |

Since Sasha suspected that the Russian government might be somehow involved in his abduction he tried to keep as low a profile as a man with giant metal arms possibly could, which meant that stories of everything from a rogue robot to frankenstein's monster tearing across the night time countryside quickly spread. More than once Sasha was accosted by police and once by military forces. Each time Sasha refused to go quietly, but likewise refused to harm anyone, using only the minimum force required to escape. Eventually, he found his way to the U.S. consulate. There he successfully petitioned both the U.S. and UNTIL for asylum. After a small political bruhahah, the fledgeling cyborg was eventually extracted from Russia and brought to the United States, specifically Millenium City, which was already known to be a hot bed of superbeing activity. Sasha took some time to acclimate to his new home, taking courses in english and working with the UNTIL researchers to learn more about what exactly had been done to him. His arms turned out to be phenomenally strong, along with the reinforcements to his spine and legs. The arms worked on a combination of hydraulics and chains, causing them to clank loudly when applying their full strength. Internally, the machines connected to his vitals converted his vital essence into hydrualic fluid and lubricant for his machine parts. The pain remained a constant companion, and the internal filters that supported his machinery prevented most drugs from having any lasting effect or providing much relief. Sasha made the effort to learn basic meditative techniques from some of the more cerebral members of the staff at UNTIL while he was with them, to help compartmentalize the pain and allow him to function more or less normally.</div><br> |

In between those times, Sasha occupied himself by finding familiar work. His newfound strength made him uniquely suited to return to his old profession, something familiar in which he could immerse himselfin this new country. Thus the official job title of 'human forklift' was created for Sasha and he entered the work force. The frequent battles between villains and the heroes of Millenium City keeps construction work steady, and Sasha still volunteers in the aftermath of such battles, assisting emergency crews with search and rescue efforts, lifting rubble carefully from trapped people. For the most part, Sasha feels he has found his place here in old Detroit, but much of the emotional pain he has endured remains unaddressed, buried deeply behind a wall of stoic, Russian stubbornness.</div><br><hr> |

Powers, Skills, and Attributes
Powers
Mechanically Augmented Strength - Gauntlet's strength is incredible considering the crude construction of his mechanical arms. He has been rated at a maximum of 100 ton lifting capacity before his arms and their supporting structures began to fail. His legs are also much stronger than that of a normal human, but much less so than the arms in terms of raw power. Nontheless he is able to propel himself through the air and across the ground at impressive speeds, if not with a great deal of grace.
Endurance and Pain Resistance - While Gauntlet remains mostly flesh and blood and vulnerable to cuts, burns, and bullets, his experiences and sheer mental fortitude render him extremely resistant to the immediate effects of such wounds. Thus Gauntlet can ignore the distraction and debilitating effects of all but the most grievous wounds, at least long enough to finish the fight, assuming blood loss or some such doesnt overtake him first.
Resistance to toxins and disease - The interal devices which support the heavy mechanisms of his arms also serve as a set of supercharged filters. The result is that Gauntlet is mostly unaffected by most toxins, drugs, and infections. This makes most beneficial medicines largely ineffective. It also makes the consumption of alcohol or any other recreational drug an exercise in futility and frustration.
Skills
Professional Construction Worker - Gauntlet has been in the construction business for years. He has a working knowledge of basic architecture, carpentry, welding, riveting, roofing, framing, and a myriad of other applicable skills to supplement his obvious value of a heavy lifter.
Ameteur Chef - Gauntlet has a natural talent for cooking, and since coming to Millenium City has prided himself on picking recipes up from all over the city and adding them to his repertoire. He enjoys entertaining guests and cooking for his friends.
Combat Training - Since his modifications, Gauntlet has sought out training in several different martial arts. While by no means a master in any sense, he has studied traditional wrestling, tae kwon do, and judo as a means of bettering his ability to function in a fight.
Gear and Equipment
Gear
Weapon - Gear and equipment are the things your character carries around and uses. These can be things like weapons and armor.
Armor - Feel free to use this section to name and describe the gear that your character uses, if any. Be, again, as lengthy as you like.
Gadget - If this section does not apply to your character, feel free to delete it. Also feel free to add more sub-headers as they apply, such as for a vehicle, perhaps, and that vehicle's statistics.
Relationships
Lover
This section is specifically for a spouse, lover, or some other form of paramour. Feel free to use any of the formatting from 'Friends/Allies' below.
Friends/Allies
Put any friends or allies your character may have in here. You may give them descriptions or simply list them. To make a numbered list, simply place a # at the beginning of each new line:
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
For a non-numbered list, put an asterisk instead (the lines are optional. Simply remove the HR tags if you wish to remove them):
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
Or, you could even use a smaller sub-header for each person, effectively creating a small section on them, like this:
That Guy I Know
Put info on the friend here.
That Chick I Met
And here.
Some Dude at the Bar
Don't forget this one.
Enemies
Put any rivals or enemies here. You can give descriptions, or simply list them. Same idea as the Allies and Friends.
