Mercury is the type to cover his self doubts, and fears with sarcasm or humor. Often times he’ll look at others in a questioning way wanting to understand what makes them, them. In hopes of understanding himself, and finding the place he belongs. Though often times only sees the masks they themselves wear. But, that does not deter his search to understand.
He often tried his best to make those around him smile. But, even despite that he is lonely as no one sticks around for very long. Because they find him creepy, and are unnerved by him. But, despite that would always seek to comfort those dying, and avenge those felled wrongly by another’s greed or jealousy. Seeing as wherever he goes death tends to follow him, as is the curse of the wraith. But, he doesn’t really mind it infact he sorta finds a fascination with it. As death was his only constant companion, and wanted to understand it all.

| History |
Mercury was born from the shadows alone in a wood, and stone cellar that reeked of death, and decay. His body wisps of smoke like shadow. He was alone, and didn’t understand what he was or who he was for that matter. The first thing he saw was a small skull. In picking it up a name or a series of words ran through his mind, and when he came round the skull had turned into his very first mask. He knew what this was: Origin Mask. In putting it on he found he’d become more solid he opened a mouth, and tested out speech. He first words being: Mercury, Grimm, Abital. It made him laugh deciding to make those words his name. Then he heard the groaning lamentations of a dark skinned man with broken legs that was dying of infection, starvation, and thirst. This man spoke with Mercury for a while telling him about the world. In return he asked Mercury to not let him die. Not till he had vengeance on the one that threw him in here, and abandoned him to die. As the last breath left this man Mercury touched him this man had become the next mask: Sly Mask. Taking their clothes Mercury left to seek out the nice man’s revenge.
He got out of the cellar after banging into it a couple times. Then looked around he saw the house, and knew that’s where the mean people lived from the memories in the Sly mask he wore. He quickly got over there, and broke into the house. Or more walked in as the doors weren’t locked. The first thing he was greeted with was a divine scent, and walked towards it. Sitting on a tray was small brown round disks with black spots in them. He ate one feeling hungry, and then the rest as the taste was amazing. Hearing shouting coming from up the stairs Mercury walked up them. Then stopped hearing loud noises BANG BANG heading into the room he saw a bleeding woman, and strong man. Then he looked to the man who was huge, and fat. It was amazing he was able to even pull the trigger with those sausage fingers. Clearly they were terrified seeing Mercury, and was questioning what he was. He took a step towards the fat man ugly man. He knew this man had also made the other innocent suffer, and so decided to end the fat man’s existence. It was so easy to strangle lardo, the man was slow, he was faster, and stronger.
He turned to the two that’d been shot that were quickly bleeding to death. They thanked him, and they revealed why they were killed in their last breaths. Thankful someone heard their story the two passed on leaving two masks the woman had secretly been a mage.
After that eventful first day of his life Mercury stayed in the house for three days. Till finally moving on taking the three masks with him in a duffle bag, and stole some clothes that’d disguise him. Having remembered the fear from the fat man, and decided to disguise his body. So he could go unnoticed.
He traveled all over ireland learning different things tasting many different sweets. To pay for it all he’d take odd jobs, and play poker meeting new interesting people. Learning more, but occasionally he’d come across people that were dying, and in need of some kind of solace. Or at times even revenge. A service Mercury was more than happy to provide. His travels had taken him to Brazil as he’d learned of Carnival of all the people walking around in mask, and costumes. Deciding that was the perfect place he could finally relax, maybe even finally make friends. But, even then that never happened. He was starting to loose hope of ever finding friends or a place to belong.
Until he got the letter from Lisa Martinez this was the first time he’d ever gotten a letter from anyone before. How could he possibly say no? She could possibly be the very first friend he’d ever made. So he packed up all his belongings quickly, and took the first flight he could to San Diego.

Powerbound: The story of Edwina, and Mercury

@Morose

---

Mercury was walking the streets of Sepetiba it was a coastal city in Rio de janeiro. The streets were bustling with music, and dancing as it was that time of year once more. It was Carnival, and Rio was where to be during this time. Mercury was enjoying Agua do coco, which was simply freshly cracked open cold coconut. It was sweet, and refreshing after enjoying a bit of dancing.

He’d had enough time to enjoy himself before he had to get to work. There was a man who stalked girls in this city during this exact time, and murdered them when they were alone. Due to all the partying nobody seemed to notice till they were cleaning up. But, Mercury knew, yes he knew of this man as he’d been hunting him for two years now. Four girls all begging for help with their guts split open kidneys stolen, and then left to bleed to death slowly in the dirty street, like a sick dog. As he knew, and loved the fact their cries would go unheard due to all the music.

But, Mercury had a sort of sixth sense when it came to detecting the dying gasps of someone. It’d been the first sounds he’d heard when he was form, and so knew it well. Yes… Tonight was the night he’d finally catch this sick son of a bitch, and make him suffer every bit as the girls had suffered. In fact he’d been tailing him for the past two hours. Watching him samba, and flirt with girls being as slick as they came. He was hunting for his next prey, and by god Mercury was going to stop it before it happened again. But, he had to wait till they were alone, isolated from help. Before he could pounce on this predator soon to be prey.

The dark skinned black haired 6’1” man with a white tailored suit, and rio mask walked up to a red haired girl. Mercury was standing off to the side glaring as he watched the two talk.
“Hello there chica alone this fine evening? How about I buy you a drink hmm?” The woman matched this man’s prey type perfectly red hair, white, and most importantly a tourist.

Mercury was rubbing his chin trying to think trying to get this poor girl away from this man before she ended up next. He was thankfully wearing his Sly mask knowing he’d need to be able to blend into the crowds at some point. So he walked to the bathrooms in the back, and went into a stall. When he exited he went straight up to the dark skinned man as he flirted away to the Red head.

”Dammit… looks like he found his next victim. I can work with this though. Hopefully before he has a chance to kill her. Dammit… Maybe if I? No, that may backfire. Fuuuking hell.“ Mercury was frustrated, and trying to come up with a solution.

“So tell me your name… Edwina? Quite the pretty name for a pretty girl yes?” The man was fucking slick as grease, and just as slimy. God he hoped this chick wouldn’t fall for this assholes ploys.

Well it wasn't in front of them the sound affects, and Mercury's thoughts were meant to confirm Fenrir was gone, and never coming back.

---

@Parfex maybe, but I wasn't joking about that.

---

@Parfex Actually @AbandonedIntel, and I agreed to have that happen.

Location: Dock 32A

Interacting With:

Jennifer - @Framing A Moose, Aja Wilkins - @Endrance, Lisa//Captain Kinesis - @AbandonedIntel

Mercury was glaring at this so called Black Cat, which was quite obviously an alias. ”You don’t get my name until you tell me your actual name. Nice fucking try.” He was reaching for his Magi mask to fry this woman. But, his attention quickly snapped over to Jennifer as she brought him one of the pizza’s. Then put it in his hands at the smell he was enraptured he didn’t even realize how hungry he was till then. ”Yeah, alright she gets to live… For now. Thanks Jennifer I appreciate this. He gave the girl a side hug which was surprisingly warm, especially for a spirit made of shadow.

He turned from Aja, and pulled out a small squirt bottle of rare fire honey from Brazil. Then proceeded to drizzle it over the pizza, and lifted his mask slightly before he started scarfing the pizza. Which just seemed to vanish into nothingness. ”mmm Oh god so good. I didn’t realize how hungry the flight over made me.” The sweet soft spicy taste of the honey meshed perfectly with the savory flavors of the pepperoni, and garlic pizza. As the saying went sweet, and savory are meant to go together. It was never truer than in this moment. He looked at Jennifer, and offered her a slice. ”Huh, well now I seem to like you even more. As your a sweetheart.” He then winked at her, and chuckled at his pun.

Mercury was halfway through his pizza, and still going strong when Fenrir turned leaving. He watched the guy vanish into the darkness. When Lisa asked him, "Oh hey... uhm... can you go get him for me please?" "Yeah sure no problem. Mind holding onto this for me Jenn?" He handed the pizza box back to her before taking off after Fenrir he’d brought out the squeezy bottle of honey. Figuring it’d put the guy into a good mood as everything sweet put him into a good mood. Soon both of them vanished into the darkness. *Yipe~* ”Hey now! No need to attack me! Now look at you you’re covered in my Fire honey. That was expensive stuff you know. There was more silence for a while. Mercury let out a scared yell, and then sounds of a fight. Then silence fell again, *gulp~*

Soon Mercury came back looking a little roughed up he was adjusting his mask his expression was that of fear. He walked over to Jennifer, and looked at the pizza. He made a soft gagging noise. ”Thanks for holding onto this, but I’m… I’m no longer hungry.” He then looked over at Lisa, and cleared his throat. "Lisa grouchy dude is not coming back… I tried.” He then grew a bit distant for a while as he set a hand to the mouth part of his mask. He was shaking a little bit as he thought about what he’d done. He’d just eaten a man, he’d never done such a thing before. He knew he wasn’t normal by any standard… But, to do that?
