	During a year-long dig on a tiny island in the Indonesian archipelago, eight-year-old Duncan befriended several warriors from the island's indigenous Gulang-gulang tribe. They taught him to wield their versatile and deadly signature weapon: a heavy stone disc on a length of hide string. They called it a "Pelang-jat", but Duncan has always referred to it by its common name: the yo-yo. Over the next ten years, Duncan blended his Pelang-jat training with techniques from half a dozen different martial arts, learned from instructors in a dozen different countries.

	…
			Bola yo-yo: Timing is important with this yo-yo, which pops off its string when thrown at a target. The two halves then separate, linked by another string. Used for tripping or binding fleeing enemies.

			Flash yo-yo: Contains a powerful one-use halogen bulb. Used for blinding antagonists.

			Grappling yo-yo: Built with pop-out hooks for climbing wood or masonry, and a powerful electromagnet for clinging to metal. A surprisingly rapid means of transportation.

			Shock yo-yo: Contains a high-voltage capacitator capable of delivering a powerful electrical shock on contact.

			Smoke yo-yo: Delivers a cloud of thick black smoke. Used when stealth or confusion is important.

			Striker yo-yo: Duncan's "standard" weapon is made of carbon-fiber composite, weighted with lead inserts. The string is 500-test monofilament (not to be confused with monomolecular filament).

	Against powerful or numerically overwhelming enemies, his vanity takes a back seat to survival. In these situations, he will employ more conventional hit and run techniques that leave him minimally exposed to return strikes. In the rare event that he realizes a fight has become unwinnable, he will drop the aforementioned smoke or flash yo-yo to cover his retreat.

	==Part Time Jobs or Internships==		==Part Time Jobs or Internships==

	Duncan has a part-time internship in the marketing department of Eastern Seaboard Bank as part of his business major. He's not handling the boring, buttoned-down environment particularly well, and he frequently finds excuses to be late or simply not there. The only things saving him from being fired are his personal charm and his co-workers' general lack of interest in the existence of interns.

	==School Funding==		==School Funding==

	Duncan's schooling is funded by his mother, a millionaire business executive. She has made it clear that once he graduates, a comfortable vice-presidency is waiting for him in one of her company's 37 international offices. She has made it equally clear that if he drops out or fails to graduate on time, the gravy train runs dry immediately.		Duncan's schooling is funded by his mother, a millionaire business executive.

	==Relationship==		==Relationship==

	Duncan's relationships are many and shallow. His good looks and outgoing personality ensure he's never short of female attention, but he's got a bad habit of dropping girlfriends after they've exhausted their "novelty factor". He's not callous, but he subconsciously assumes that they're getting bored with him as well.		Duncan's relationships are many and shallow.

	Duncan religiously mantains his workout-and-training schedule. The rest of his free time is spent loosely roaming around the city, either with friends or alone. He prefers coffeehouses and open-air markets to bars and clubs. He's not much of a drinker, although he has a fake ID for occasions when a band he really wants to see is playing a 21+ venue.

	Duncan is wiry and muscular, with short-cropped spiky black hair. He tends to dress casually (jeans and T-shirt), although he's comfortable in a suit if the need arises. His costume is a form-fitting jumpsuit resembling motorcycle racing leathers, with a stylized yo-yo emblem on the chest. He wears a small domino-style mask.

	Duncan is a thrillseeker. He enjoys knowing that his actions have helped people, but he enjoys swinging around on buildings and getting into fights even more. He's comfortable with publicity and has only bothered to loosely disguise his identity. Still, he is fully aware that human lives are more important than adrenalin highs and media attention.

	The son of a jet-setting executive and a respected archaeologist, Duncan saw each of the seven continents before his seventh birthday. While not technically divorced, the natures of their professions often left his parents thousands of miles away from each other, and Duncan spent much of his early childhood in transit.

	During a year-long dig on a tiny island in the Indonesian archipelago, eight-year-old Duncan befriended several warriors from the island's indigenous Gulang-gulang tribe. They taught him to wield their versatile and deadly signature weapon: a heavy stone disc on a length of hide string. They called it a "Pelang-jat", but Duncan has always referred to it by its common name: the yo-yo. Over the next ten years, Duncan blended his Pelang-jat training with techniques from half a dozen different martial arts, learned from instructors in a dozen different countries.
