Thanks to her brilliant mind and the decades of research she has been allowed to do in Rikers, under close supervision, she is one of the leading experts in the field of superpowers. The Protectors often consult her. But despite her helpfulness and the fact that she has been a model prisoner, Dr. Forsberg might be the most dangerous supervillain in rikers. If there is one thing that has given the Old Guard nightmares, it has been the possibility of the Abductor escaping. | Thanks to her brilliant mind and the decades of research she has been allowed to do in Rikers, under close supervision, she is one of the leading experts in the field of superpowers.

By any means necessary. Ever since the Rikers Raid, Heroslayers have worked together with The Protectors. A large number of Countersuper Marshals are their rank and file. If different decisions had been made in the past, things could have gone differently. |

A familiar figure from the past, the cyborg assassin that fought the Original Protectors has grown old. His hair is now completely grey. But he does not move like an old person. Even standing still, he looks like a coiled spring, ready for action. In a job, he likes to wear urban combat fatigues. | A familiar figure from the past, the cyborg assassin that fought the Original Protectors has grown old. His hair is now completely grey.

He has far more obvious augments than Crowley. All of his limbs seem cybernetic, and even his armor seems to be a part of him. What skin is visible, mainly from the neck up, is heavily scarred. He lacks Crowley's skill though, which is why the Protectors took him out easily. |
