Chronicles of Darkness: The Shadow Legion

Chapter 2: Let's get things straight.

So let's confirm some things and do some introductions. My name is Alexander Gremora Shadowier. I am 16 years old, I weigh roughly 180 lbs, and I am 6'3. I know, I'm a giant, but it helps in my line of study. But before I talk down that neck of the woods, let's finish up about me. I was born in ?, USA. Somewhere in Nevada, very military. A number comes to mind. My mom affectionately calls me a psychopath. She isn't wrong. Shes always described me as this cold, quiet, unfeeling and observational character in public. In private, I'm about the same just much more sarcastic.

Now for the backstory. This will sound like your average life, completely normal. I was born at a facility that even I don't know much about. Two days after I was born, they began the process. A small unit of scientists began performing experiments on me, trying to build a god. These experiments wound up boosting my strength and combat proficiency, as well as drastically increasing my intelligence and mental processing speed. Then when i was 4, they discovered I had a heavily mutated S gene. I was infused with the blood, DNA, and body parts of an ancient celestial being, a Light Lord, which coincidentally were the beings which humans inherited the S gene from. These beings had the rare ability to manipulate light and UV rays to create weapons made of pure light rays, as well as manipulate UV's to create waves or beams of light and stuff like that, which wound up being passed down to humans a few hundred thousand years ago.  When this being was infused in me, my already strong abilities of light manipulation was not only added to but ramped up ten thousand fold. Due to the gene being suppressed over hundreds of generations, many of the abilities of the Light Lords were lost. With this being having been directly grafted into my body as a child, I regained those lost abilities. All of these experiments combined with the intense training and grafting of the Light Lord made me a one-man army, which pleased the scientists a lot. They began psychological molding me, attempting to make my mind completely conformed to them, making me follow their every order. They began with creating an emotional extreme triggered mental state, "unstable mode". In this mode, I become completely separated from reality, driving me into a murderous psychopathic rampage. They wanted to continue with their process, but finally the dumbass military realized what was really happening and shut the whole unit down. When the scientists fought back, they blew the place to oblivion. They scavenged as much as they could. Then they found me. They didn't know what to do with me, and as they studied the notes of my conditioning they realized what had been done. They kept me under surveillance in a government-owned mental hospital until they were sure that I would not be a threat. I was adopted by two agents and I lived in a mansion until they finally decided to put me in a stupid preppy school. That's all you need to know.
