Full Name: Edward Morbius
Alias: Vermin
Age: Mid 30s
Gender: Male
Member Group: Villain
Occupation: Former Geneticist
Canon or OC: A combination of two Canon characters...five points if you can guess who it is!
Height: 5'8"
Weight: About 150 pounds
Play by: Edward Norton!
Imagine this guy with lots of fur all over him (see pic below)
Physical Description:
Usually wears whatever he can find, he does have some dignity, however, and prefers to wear more than rags. If he had money, he would probably buy some really nice clothes, a suit maybe.
Personality: Before the incident occured that transformed Edward Morbius into Vermin, he was a proud, but humble man. He was a brilliant geneticist and his life was his work, though not to the point of obsession. He was friendly, clever, and funny, pretty darn near perfect. However, after becoming Vermin, all these things seem as shadows in the face of his new persona.
Although he retains a bit of his old self, he is much more animalistic as Vermin. He is ashamed of his transformation and mostly avoids society, trying to become self-sufficient, but at the same time yearning for what he once had. He is much more selfish nowadays and tends to be rather paranoid and pessimistic. In stressful situations, he reverts to animal instinct and seems to become nothing more than a savage, although usually, he is viewed with pity by those he isn't attacking.
He is usually considered to be a villain, because, if he has no money (pretty much all the time) he will steal what he needs in order to survive. Additionally, his paranoia sometimes incites him into random acts of vandalism or assault, and when he is agitated he has been known to do the same. Once or twice, to his great disappointment, he has even been recorded as cannibalistic. He generally avoids human contact and therefore is becoming even more anti-social, increasing the risk of hiim becoming agitated when around humans.
Powers:
Superhuman Strength (can lift up to approximately 1 ton)
Enhanced Senses
Has vicious claws and teeth
Has human peak Durability, Speed, and Agility
Has a minimal Healing Factor
Can communicate to rats, not through speech or telepathy, almost just like an empathic link, they just know what he wants them to do.
Weaknesses: Has a natural aversion to light and often diverts to operating on instinct rather than intellect in stressful situations
History:
Edward Morbius was born in Greece to his...parents. When he was still young, they moved to the United States, more specifically, New York. He excelled in school and became a friend and associate of Doctor Curt Connors. When he was in his teens, however, he was diagnosed with a host of terminal illnesses. He chose to try and cure himself and so became a geneticist upon graduating from high school.
Soon after getting his degree, he left New York to travel the world, doing research in hopes of finding some kind of miracle cure. He traveled for almost a decade with few results and handfuls of notes on his journeys before returning to New York. It was then that he learned of Doc Connors' research into using lizard DNA to grow his arm back. This appeared an extremely viable option to him and he put his own spin on the formula, including several different animals in the mix, most prominantly, a rat. Well, uh, guess what happened when he tried it out? He became the creature known as Vermin. He ran away in shame and now lurks about New York, doing what he can to survive. He is too noble to consider suicide, even in this state.
