David Banner was born into love, but not into luck. His parents, Dr. Bruce Banner and Dr. Betty Banner, were brilliant scientists, equal parts gentle and determined. While the world celebrated flashy heroes and powerful Quirks, Bruce and Betty sought something nobler: a way for Quirkless individuals to stand alongside the gifted, not beneath them. Their research hinted at something revolutionary, genetic augmentation that might level the playing field.
But their compassion drew the wrong eyes. Corporate and military interests saw profit. Villains saw a threat. And one night, both Bruce and Betty were murdered in cold blood, silenced for daring to bridge the gap between the powerless and the powerful.
David never forgot the smell of smoke, or the red-blue blur of sirens flashing against the lifeless faces of the only two people who ever truly loved him.
