"I remember the first time I heard the sounds.
It was painful for a nine year old to experience that, to sense everything that is happening in Hell's Kitchen, all at once. I tried to learn how to silence the noises, but that barely worked. I can sense everything from a mile radius. I can smell, taste, touch, hear EVERYTHING. I just had to sacrifice my vision...
Ever since I was a kid, I had to learn to focus, to take advantage of my abilities.
The first lesson I had to learn was that nobody feels sorry for me and nobody ever will, that's what my master "Stick" used to say, before he abandoned me because I refused to be his soldier. He wanted me to participate in a war, he wanted me to kill people.
I would never take another person's life.
Now, I'm just a blindfolded man on the rooftop of a church, listening to the city.
Months of nights have turned me into a nocturnal animal. I must choose my targets carefully. Even with super powered vigilantes running around New York, Hell's Kitchen was never safe."
