The borough eventually became the home to many of Millennium City's lower-class citizens and local street gangs such as the '''Maniacs''' and the '''Black Aces'''.

<center>Whilst taking classes at the community center, Darrell met another student named '''Russell Lyman''' who, like him, didn't have many friends but also "knew his way around a keyboard" so his mother also pursuaded him into signing up for computer classes. A friendship quickly formed between the two boys and eventually began working on a personal side project called '''R4gn%r0k''' after they completed their lessons for the day at the center. R4gn%r0k was supposed to be a malware application that was only meant to test the young programmers' newly acquired computer skills but turned into the proof needed for Russell to begin working with an underground cyber-terrorist group known as '''eLite_Circuit'''. Russell convinced Darrell to join the group by selling him a false story of eLite_Circuit being a hacktivist group set on exposing the lies and corruption that plagues Millennium City's underbelly, which Darrell ultimately did agree to join his friend in this supposed noble cause for social reform and justice.</center><br><br> | <center>Whilst taking classes at the community center, Darrell met another student named '''Russell Lyman''' who, like him, didn't have many friends but also "knew his way around a keyboard" so his mother also pursuaded him into signing up for computer classes.

− | <center> | + | <center>In between nightly operations to break into different tech facilities throughout the city and expose whatever secret projects they had been working on, Darrell worked endlessly to figure out the ominous Phantom Equation; intrigued by what it was, why had it been created, and what was it's overall purpose. As the days went by, Darrell did eventually learn why it was called the Phantom Equation and it was because not only was it a complex computer algorithm, but it was also possessed an enigmatic coding sequence that consisted of "invisible numbers" that, despite being absent, still allowed the program to run, but on what type of software, Darrell didn't know exactly. So he spent day and night, running different numeric variables and mathematical equations in order to finally solve the bizarre application. At some point in time, Darrell eventually caught wind of eLite_Circuit's entire plan, learning via overhearing a conversation, between Eugene and Kristen of all people, that Russell and Ramsey had come close to retrofitting Darrell's malware program, R4gn%r0k and after running several simulations, they found that it might just have a chance to shut down SOCRATES and then everyone from politicians to policymakers would have to answer to eLite_Circuit once Millennium City's infrastructure was in their control. Realizing that he had been lied to by whom he thought was his best friend and all this time he had been working for an underground cyber-terrorist group, Darrell took it upon himself to single-handedly stop eLite_Circuit before it was too late.</center><br><br> |
+ | <center>Realizing that he didn't have the time to craft an anti-virus program that could counteract R4gn%r0k if Russell and Ramsey did come close to repurposing it, Darrell set his sights on some reconfiguration of his own. He theorized that if he could solve the Phantom Equation in due time, he could possibly turn it into a "Class-5 "super virus" and shut down eLite_Circuit's main server before they even had a chance to deploy R4gn%r0k into the city's power grid. In the meantime, Darrell had to take it upon himself to dwindle eLite_Circuit's resources by secretly sabotaging the group's hidden pirate servers kept in hackerspaces that were set up in different boroughs throughout the city. This would keep them occupied with that whole ordeal while Darrell continued to work tirelessly to repurpose the Phantom Equation into an anti-virus and shut down eLite_Circuit's plans of a city-wide takeover before it could officially begin.</center> | ||

+ | <center>Darrell's effort proved fruitful as eLite_Circuit's growing concerns regarding the destruction of their hackerspaces led to them becoming disjointed, unfocused, and distracted; believing a rival hacker group known as '''HaDoCk''' was responsible for the loss of their pirate servers. The stolen data they had spend the last 6-to-8 months collecting and storing at these hackerspaces were all gone, which meant an hyper-attentive focus on readying R4gn%r0k for deployment. Luckily for Darrell this came at or around the same time as he finally solved the missing, "invisible" numbers of the Phantom Equation and successfully turned it into the anti-virus he needed to counter R4gn%r0k, all he needed now was to upload it to eLite_Circuit's main server that was stored in a derelict warehouse near the Millennium City docks. All was going well, until Darrell was caught in the act of sabotaging the main server by Russell who came backed up by the rest of eLite_Circuit. Russell had suspected that it was only a matter of time before HaDoCk would find out about their main server so he was quick to have the rest of the team hightail it to the warehouse to make sure everything was still intact. Darrell attempted to lie and say that he was making sure everything was in order with said server, but Russell saw right through his lie and knew that he had been the one destroying their hackerspaces across the city. To which Darrell only responded that he knew what they were up to and he wasn't for it and that it wasn't what he "signed up for"; thinking that eLite_Circuit were the good guys, but they had been lying to him the entire time, including Russell, the person he thought of like the brother he never had.<br><br></center> | ||

Which all amounted in a violent explosion occurring that rocked the warehouse to its core and sending out a wave of energy into the room that knocked everyone unconscious.

+ | <center>The Phantom Equation was a complex algorithm as Darrell theorized created by the lowbie cyberkinetic villain known as, '''Cybercide'''. He created it as an extension of his '''Cybercide Derivative''', a serum that granted him his technopathic abilities. The Phantom Equation was supposed to be a hybridization of science and, what Cybercide described as, ''"the weird"'' so that it could be uploaded into his hardware and expand his already vast arsenal of abilities. Since the Phantom Equation was never meant for integration with anything that wasn't Cybercide's elaborate hardware, the mass surge of "virtual energy" overwhelmed the server Darrell uploaded it to, resulting in the explosion that gave him his powers. Eli and Eric had been trying to locate eLite_Circuit for months with no avail, it was only through Darrell's efforts in shutting down their server farms and hackerspaces that the two scientists were able to finally get a ping on them.</center><br><br> | ||

Their newfound abilities allowed them to no longer hide behind keyboards in order to enact their plans of a city-wide takeover and since Darrell was the one who unleashed the virus that gave them their powers, he was going to be the one to stop them and bring them back to Dynamic Innovations for further study and possible curing of their meta-abilities. Darrell begrudgingly agreed to working with Dynamic Innovations in apprehending his former allies, though a thought would continue to loom in the back of his head as to whatever happened to Russell as so far he was nowhere to be accounted for despite being present at the event that gave them their powers.

He had finally move past the skeletons he thought he had buried deep away in the back of his closet, only for them to come rushing back out like a bullet train. With that, Darrell left a departing statement for Quantum League find on their computers aboard the Andromeda and left without saying a word to anyone.</center> | ||

+ | <center>In the mid-late-to-early summer of 2022, Darrell began to work solo once more and return back to basics as street-level hero once more. Eventually, he was contacted by his surrogate- sister, Arielle Altomore a.k.a Flashpoint who had just moved to a new residence on the west coast in California called, '''Victoria City'''. Victoria City was the home a generational super-team known as the '''Victory Guard''' and in her time since moving there, she found herself working alongside the latest incarnation of the Victory Guard super-group. Unfortunately, Arielle contacting Darrell wasn't to celebrate any good news she had received and wanted to share, but instead to warn him about an extra-dimensional threat that had since reared its head. Arielle had wanted to warn him about the emergence of evil variants of her new super-group, Victory Guard, that had popped up in Victoria City, but more importantly they had been working alongside an evil versions of Chameleon and Sister Salem.<br><br></center> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <center>Darrell took it upon himself to temporarily relocate to California and help his pseudo-sister and her team combat this evil Victory Guard, especially since he had some experience in dealing with extra-dimensional threats. Meeting with Victory Guard's leader, '''Bowman''' along with the rest of the team that consisted of '''Arc Tempest''', another ex-Quantum Leaguer possessing electrokinetic abilities, '''Communa''', a psionic, Flashpoint, and '''Spoilsport''', the team's shapeshifter. Glitch worked with Victory Guard to help coordinate an attack to help stop whatever plan these evil doppelgangers sought to accomplish. As the group would eventually find out, the evil variants of Chameleon and Sister Salem sought to execute a world merge between their universe and this one by using a device known as the '''Wave Modulator''', a gadget used by '''Doctor Seismic''', an old Victory Guard adversary that was stored in the group's base of operations following his eventual defeat.<br><br></center> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <center>This confrontation all came to ahead at a warehouse not far from Victory Guard's base in the outskirts of Victoria City where the world merge ritual would be executed. Victory Guard fought valiantly with each member subsequently killing their respective evil counterpart, with Glitch killing Chameleon with a holo-projection of a giant fist that knocked her back and impaled her on the trunk of an uprooted tree. Glitch's first, albeit unintentional, kill. The world merge was successfully averted with the death of Sister Salem who was reduced to a pile of ashes by Flashpoint who, in response to the massive extra-dimensional rift that Salem opened above Victoria City, mysteriously transformed into a massive ruby-scaled dragon and scorched her to death with her fire breath. While the crisis was averted, Arielle was now, seemingly stuck, in the form of dragon with no explanation as for why and how. At the conclusion of this event, Darrell managed to walk away with a souvenir in the form of a charred, nonoperational Wave Modulator that was damaged by Flashpoint's fire breath, with the next major case being the investigation of Arielle how to return her back to her human form once more.</center> | ||

Spending the majority of his time playing video games and browsing the internet did more harm then good as he grow to become a very shy and timid person. By the time he graduated high school, however, he overcame this limitation more-and-more by the time he got his first job in customer service where he had to interact with people on a daily basis. Still incredibly shy, Darrell seems to exert a lot more energy when he's around those he considers friends where he will become a lot more talkative then usual and open to cracking jokes whenever he can. Darrell is perceived by most as a kind soul with the swagger of a gentleman. Most find themselves gravitating toward him purely due to his down-to-earth demeanor and ability to remain levelheaded in times of extreme stress or turmoil. His affinity for computers and software development has led to Darrell becoming far more analytical than the average person, always preparing for whats to come ahead in the future. Occasionally, Darrell will go periods of time without talking or speaking when in a large group of people, where most would perceive this as "zoning out" is actually him carefully examining and creating a mental profile of the people he's surrounded by. Learning more about them through their words, thoughts, and actions. Ever since joining the Quantum League, Darrell's confidence has even seen a major boost as he's more willing to take part in playful banter and jokes with some of the team's more serious and stern members of the group. His ability to turn this off and get serious; focusing on the mission at hand, garners much respect from other members as well, as it showcases his sense of determination and dedication to seeing a mission through to end.</center> |

Finally, Darrell's abilities allow him to emulate technological glitches and malfunctions seen in machinery and computer softwares, some of these capabilities include but certainly aren't limited to: rendering weapons inert, cause heavy machinery to either break down or malfunction, or even manipulate a person's overall motor-skills so that they can be used against them; oftentimes referring to this technique as a "glitch" in the individual's system. |
However, despite the seemingly endless array of powers he seems to possess, Darrell's abilities come with the major downside of leaving him drained of his own internal energy if he's to go too far beyond his personal threshold. Once this happens, Darrell is forced to fall back and work out an alternate plan of attack at least until he regains his strength and energy again. | However, despite the seemingly endless array of powers he seems to possess, Darrell's abilities come with the major downside of leaving him drained of his own internal energy if he's to go too far beyond his personal threshold.

*<b>Databending</b>: Darrell can use virtual energy to freely warp the "information" (molecules) inside an object in order to create or turn them into real life glitches and pixelations. This process is known as "databending" or "datamoshing" and usually puts the object "out of phase" with reality thus rendering its tangibility temporarily inert/non-existent until the glitch effect wears off naturally or when Darrell decides to lift it himself. Either way, this technique is a common ploy used by Darrell to prevent enemies from gaining access to lethal weaponry that can harm either him, bystanders, or just pose a possible collateral damage risk to the surrounding environment. | *<b>Databending</b>: Darrell can use virtual energy to freely warp the "information" (molecules) inside an object in order to create or turn them into real life glitches and pixelations.

+ | *<b>Digital Pirating</b>: If he's ever in a bind where he needs a quick surge of energy, needs to replenish his energy reserves, or even heal quickly, Darrell can "pirate" the electro-static energy present in nearby electronics in order to heal himself for a time and put him back in fighting condition. This electro-static energy can come from anywhere whether its a cell phone, computer, laptop, tablet, or even a smartwatch. | ||
*<b>Equipment Malfunction</b>: Darrell can manipulate his data pixels to override the performance of any piece of equipment and cause it to malfunction. This ability isn’t always guaranteed though as varying pieces of equipment or machinery experience different effects. Most of the time, the malfunction or “glitch” that's put in place is never permanent and the equipment in question will usually revert to normal operation(s) after a few minutes or seconds. Due to this drawback, this ability is often reserved for moments where a quick escape or distraction is needed. | *<b>Equipment Malfunction</b>: Darrell can manipulate his data pixels to override the performance of any piece of equipment and cause it to malfunction.

*<b>Logic Bomb Creation</b>: Darrell can set off "bombs" of tightly compacted pixels and data bursts that can explode into a wave of concussive energy upon its detonation; scrambling the senses and mental faculties of his target. This typically leaves his enemies temporarily unable to think, speak, read, or recognize familiar faces for about thirty-seconds to a minute before the effects of the "Logic Bomb" wear off. | *<b>Logic Bomb Creation</b>: Darrell can set off "bombs" of tightly compacted pixels and data bursts that can explode into a wave of concussive energy upon its detonation; scrambling the senses and mental faculties of his target.

+ | |||
+ | *<b>Signal Boost</b>: Should he ever need to get to a high vantage point at all, Darrell can fire a two concentrated surges of virtual energy (from both hands) directly at the ground in order to propel himself upward and send him airborne. This often done whenever he needs to cross large gaps his teleportation or trick-jumping abilities can't carry him far or long enough for. This also allows for quick and effortless movement/transportation throughout terrains that're void of many buildings or artificial structures. | ||
*<b>System Crash/Override</b>: Sometimes referred to as the “Big Bang”, Darrell, with the enough harnessing of virtual energy, can completely override and crash a technology system and render it completely useless and inert. This essentially is a naturally-made EMP-like effect that Darrell only uses in the most dire of situations and because of its extreme nature, it typically leaves him drained of energy. As a result, this power is yet another last resort/ditch effort whenever Darrell finds that he needs to end a particular conflict quickly. | *<b>System Crash/Override</b>: Sometimes referred to as the “Big Bang”, Darrell, with the enough harnessing of virtual energy, can completely override and crash a technology system and render it completely useless and inert.

+ | *<b>Torrent Blasts</b>: Darrell can shoot beams of pixelated energy from his hands, an ability he has since come to recognize as his Torrent Blasts. This is perhaps Darrell's main form of offensive attack and the effects of a torrent blast can vary depending on the intensity Darrell subconsciously decides to set it to. Not too much is known about the properties of a torrent blast, but its thought that they could really being a collection of virtual particles being fired in a continuous stream at a given target. One obserable feature to Darrell's torrent blasts is that there might be a hidden electrical quality to them as most targets, at least those that are biological in nature, are prone to audibly stutter whenever hit with a blast of this energy. Mechanical or inorganic targets though have been seen to "glitch" temporarily as if they had just been shocked with a jolt of electricity. The torrent blasts are largely concussive for the most part as well, they don't appear to generate enough, if any, heat to warrant searing a hole through objects and people or even leaving scorch marks/residue in their wake. | ||
*<b>Weapons Jam</b>: An easier and rather simplistic use of his powers, Darrell can effectively “jam” most weapons by using virtual energy to interfere with the kinetic, muzzle, and potential energies that are used when readying and aiming a firearm of any caliber. | *<b>Weapons Jam</b>: An easier and rather simplistic use of his powers, Darrell can effectively “jam” most weapons by using virtual energy to interfere with the kinetic, muzzle, and potential energies that are used when readying and aiming a firearm of any caliber. | ||

This power is sometimes thought to be Darrell utilizing a form or variation of "quantum tunneling" as he can also use this power to transport through barriers that may be designed specifically to work against teleporters. |
+ | **<b>Digital Screen Transportation</b>: In recent years, Darrell has mastered the ability to teleport via digital screens. This is easier with cell phones than it is anything else like television screens, tablets, and even computer screens, but its achievable nonetheless. The only parameter is that the appliance has to be turned on in order for Darrell to teleport through it or else there's a chance he might become trapped in what he refers to as the "incorporeal world." | ||
**<b>Tele-Frag</b>: An offensive use of his teleportation abilities, Darrell can “tele-frag” himself in the exact location in which an enemy target is standing and forcefully push them out of the way. | **<b>Tele-Frag</b>: An offensive use of his teleportation abilities, Darrell can “tele-frag” himself in the exact location in which an enemy target is standing and forcefully push them out of the way. | ||
+ | **<b>Trick-Jumping</b>: Another usage of this ability Darrell has since learned how to do is a process known as "trick-jumping." It turns out that whenever Darrell teleports, he actually maintains a steady stream of energy and momentum when he ports from point A to B. This has since been utilized as an alternate transportation method by Darrell combining his parkour and climbing skills with his teleportation in order to perform indefinite wall runs, climbs, and jumps so that he can quickly travel throughout the city. | ||

*<b>Diagnostic Signal</b>: Darrell appears to possess an extraordinary sixth sense that allows his mind to operate like an analytical engine, capable of detecting and rapidly responding to perturbations going on in the world around him related to his current positioning (i.e. the space, room, or location he would be occupying at that particular moment). This ability is described by Darrell as a "static-like" sensation that starts in the back of his head and moves throughout his entire body, growing stronger and "louder" the closer he is to making an optimal choice in his own critical thinking skills.<br><br> Sometimes known as ''“Signaling”'', Darrell recognizes it moreso as a "diagnostic sweep" of his current environment that starts with what feels like a subtle "thunk" in the back of his head which is actually his brain automatically sending out a neural pulse that parses his surroundings by absorbing cascading data and energy coming in from the world around him. Then, through a complex mental algorithm, multiple information streams (e.g. threat assessment, global positioning, observational, and situational awareness) are generated that allow Darrell to swiftly analyze and rapidly respond to changing tactical situations, by identifying the variables and adjusting the outcome to whichever is most favorable to him. While this ability isn't a "danger sense" per se, it does provide Darrell with the means of analyzing, identifying and critically evaluating a potential threat or outcome at a subconscious level before acting upon it.

+ | *<b>Mental Firewall</b>: While this doesn't make him completely immune to telepathy or even mental manipulation, in the time since his first adventure with Quantum League that saw him become mind-controlled by a band of magic-using villains, Darrell has since trained his mind to be more resilient to telepaths and psionics. Darrell can erect a "neural firewall" that can protect him from outside mental influence and direct mental attacks, probes, or detection. Darrell has even trained himself to subconsciously make this firewall stronger once the presence of outside influence is felt or detected by him personally. | ||

*<b>Accelerated Recovery Rate</b>: Darrell's body appears to heal and recover from most extensive injuries at a much faster rate than normal humans can. Much to his chagrin, Darrell dislikes calling it a "healing factor" as it would appear that most injuries aren't instantly healed in a matter of minutes or hours, but over the course of a full night's rest. This would imply that rather than a proper healing factor, Darrell actually possesses an accelerated recovery rate that sees him capable of having quick "turnaround" periods to bounce back from most minimal-to-severe injuries so long as he's given the ample time to rest. In layman's terms, Darrell's natural healing is still the same as any other humans, but the rate of recovery that would see him back in fighting shape is what is truly "enhanced" about him. This power also provides Darrell with a heightened immune system that renders him less susceptible to most forms of drugs and/or toxins that are to find themselves in his bloodstream. | *<b>Accelerated Recovery Rate</b>: Darrell's body appears to heal and recover from most extensive injuries at a much faster rate than normal humans can.

+ | *<b>Peerless Hacker/Programmer</b>: Darrell's sheltered life led to him developing a knack for computers and software development, so much so that he was eventually enrolled in computer classes down at the community center in his neighborhood. While here, he developed his first piece of malware under the name R4Gn%r0k with Russell Lyman before it was stolen and repurposed as a virus that would aim to shut down SOCRATES and give eLite_Circuit, an aspiring cyber-terrorist group Darrell unknowingly joined, access to all of Millennium City's power grid and infrastructure. As Glitch, Darrell's hacking experience has skyrocketed immensely as he was able to tap into onboard computers of Quantum League's personal ship, despite the heavy damage that was taken to it during a supervillain attack. He's even gone in and (from what he claims) reset and reprogrammed a lot of the ship's computer systems with his own code and scripts and made it "better", claiming that whomever created it originally was a "noob" at best.

While he certainly wouldn't consider him an "expert" or "master" at the particular craft, Darrell is fond of thinking outside the box and approaching a given threat from all possible angles. Interestingly enough, Darrell also like to think on the same level psychologically as the villain or threat that he and/or his allies are up against. He does this in attempt to predict the target's next plan or method of attack and what are some ways or obstacles everyone should be aware of or take into account before just running in blindly. | ||

− | *<b>Efficacy Suit</b>: Darrell's costume has gone through many designs and iterations throughout his time of being hero. Originally it had a more "vigilante" look to it as his first ever costume was primarily street clothes. As the months and year progressed, the costume saw some much needed upgrades as Darrell was coming face-to-face with metahumans far more frequently than before. The latest "3.0" version of Glitch's costume is a type of "smart clothing" which makes use of micro-computers and nano-liquid circuitry embedded throughout its material in order to keep Darrell constantly "plugged into the internet". A Wi-Fi and radio receiver provide him with wireless internet access and communications with radio traffic so he can scan police radio transmissions as well as pick up radio signals too. The Wi-Fi receiver also allows Darrell backdoor access to monitor and control any systems connected to a wireless computer such as surveillance cameras, temperature/climate control functions, etc. The suit is also heavily shielded against EMPs, technopaths, and excessive uses of electricity and/or magnetic attacks, this is all to keep from having the suit's onboard systems being destroyed in the wake of a battle. When the costume isn't in use, its stored in a portable, pocket-sized canister where it will expand to full size whenever it's needed. | + | *<b>Efficacy Suit</b>: Darrell's costume has gone through many designs and iterations throughout his time of being hero.

Lastly, there's the hexagon-shaped module that sits comfortably on Glitch's chest. This module is sometimes recognized as a "hands-free multi-tool" due to that its jam-packed with a variety of functions such as a defibrillator that can provide a magnetic-electrical charge to Darrell's heart with two consecutive administrations should he ever flatline, project a non-lethal Pulson blast that can knock back and incapacitate opponents from a couple meters away, and project a protective force-field around Glitch's chest or his entire body the moment it detects or predicts Glitch's reaction time won't allow him to save himself in time to counter an attack. When the costume isn't in use, its stored in a portable, pocket-sized canister where it will expand to full size whenever it's needed. |

The tanbo sticks can also disburse a wave of paralytic electric energy that can be used to attack enemies at a distance. |

This can prove to be problematic as depending on the frequency applied to the vibrational wave of energy can lead Glitch to experiencing "molecular disequilibrium" which will cause his cells to be in a constant state of breakdown and reassemblage. When this happens, Darrell's phasing will not only become imbalanced but will be quantum cohesion next to impossible as he'll lack the control to turn his phasing "on and off"; therefore increasing the risk of falling through the earth or worse. |

+ | *The main goal that remained a constant during Glitch's creation: ''"Don't make him a technopath."'' | ||
+ | *There was an idea that Glitch would be an amnesiac time-traveler from a doomed future and his powers were tied to temporal alteration and manipulation. | ||
+ | *Nanomachines/nanites were considered for some type of involvement in Glitch's origin, powers, or equipment, but was scrapped due to the MCU's overuse of the technology. | ||
+ | *Was originally going to be a mutant female that could create holographic throwing knives/daggers and be based on the X-Men character, '''Blink''' before that idea was scrapped. | ||
+ | **The second draft of Glitch saw him wearing paramilitary fatigues mixed with some hi-tech armor attachments and was based on the '''Arkham Knight'''. This idea was eventually dropped too. | ||
+ | **The third draft was to make Glitch just a mutant, but I welcomed the challenge of creating a tech hero through the traditional "accidental" science origin. | ||
+ | **A final draft on Glitch saw him based on the X-Men character, '''Fantomex''' but this was also discarded in favor of something more "street-level" and partly relatable. | ||
+ | *The concept of Glitch was inspired during a miserable game session of GTA Online where my presence oftentimes lagged friends' gameplay, created rubberband issues for myself and others, and resulted in delays in damage sustained to my character. | ||
+ | *Most tech-themed characters use shades of blue to represent the outward expression of their powers/abilities.

Look at the advanced tech seen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe or Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.)''. The choice to make Glitch's powers orange-and-green/white came from that his powers are "organic" and esoteric. The orange represents his skin tone/complexion while the green is supposed to represent "the internet" and its larger interconnectivity. | ||
+ | *Glitch's Diagnostic Signal is partly inspired by the '''Spider-Sense (Marvel)''', but based mainly on '''Amadeus Cho’s Hyper-Mind (Marvel)''' ability and the Inhuman, '''Ulysses Cain's Diagnostic Precognition (Marvel)'''. | ||
+ | *Characters that served as inspiration for Glitch include '''Eugene Sims (Infamous: Second Son)''', '''Marcus Holloway (Watch Dogs 2)''', '''Wrench (Watch Dogs 2/Legion)''', '''Miles Morales/Spider-Man (Marvel)''', '''David Alleyne/Prodigy (Marvel)''', '''Virgil Hawkins/Static (DC Comics)''', and '''Duke Thomas/The Signal (DC Comics)'''.<br><br> | ||
− | ''' | + | '''Character Details''' |
+ | *While he's seen the Canadian powerhouse flying around from time-to-time, Glitch has never met or interacted with [[Thundrax|<span style="color:#90ff93">Thundrax</span>]] formally. | ||
+ | *Thanks to Flashpoint, Glitch is an accomplished cook and can make some savory meals and dishes. | ||
+ | *He actually owns a small supply box of '''Questionite'''. He still hasn't found a particular use for it yet. | ||
+ | *The boy has a weakness for girls with brown hair, usually curly, and blue or dark/brown eyes. | ||
+ | *Is deathly terrified of bees, wasps, hornets basically anything that flies and has a stinger. | ||
+ | *During his high school years, Darrell always wanted to join the [[Young Renegades|<span style="color:#90ff93">Young Renegades</span>]]. | ||
+ | *Darrell was 13 years old at the time of the '''Qularr Invasion''' in 2009. | ||
+ | **4 years later in 2013, Darrell actually loses his father in the '''Lemurian Invasion''' and Cybermind's attack on SOCRATES inspires Darrell to become a hacktivist. | ||
+ | **The following year in 2014, Darrell attends the first-ever '''Foxbatcon''' and gets a novelty foam finger and replica Ping-Pong Ball Gun. | ||
+ | **In 2017, Darrell has already become Glitch and helps escort civilians to safe-zones throughout the city during Shadow Destroyer's '''Nightmare Invasion'''. | ||
+ | *Between the time he served as a "hacktivist" with eLite_Circuit and becoming Glitch, Darrell has been engaging in vigilante activities for about 6 years (give or take). | ||
+ | *His favorite word is 'indubitably' which means "without a doubt." | ||
+ | *He views most patriotic heroes as ''"government lapdogs."'' | ||
+ | **He also find it ironic how most "darken" their color scheme over time because the vibrant colors becoming too alluring. | ||
+ | *Glitch has developed a dislike for speedsters after a brutal beatdown he suffered from Major League member, Red Racer. | ||
+ | *So far, Glitch has been a member/ally of groups such as '''The Astrals''', '''OUTBreak''', '''The Quantum League''', and '''Victory Guard'''. | ||
+ | *Darrell is a big fan of musicals and of the ones he's seen so far are '''Beetlejuice''', '''Hamilton''', '''Shrek the Musical''', and '''Wicked'''. | ||
+ | *His favorite (domesticated) animal are cats. Mainly due to them being ''mostly'' low maintenance and don't need to walk them everyday. | ||
+ | *Glitch tries to keep most of his gadgets compact that way they can fit in his utility belt and also be carried in his civilian clothes in case he's unable to use his powers. | ||
+ | *His time with Quantum League has made him an expert in quantum mechanics and engineering as well as extremely knowledgeable in extra/inter-dimensional affairs. | ||
+ | *Glitch ditched his original vigilante attire not because it was damaged or he simply wanted a new look...but because it had a habit of smelling bad from profuse sweating. | ||
+ | *Despite what many friends and allies like to think and claim, Glitch isn't a "genius" or recognized as having "genius-level intellect." He personally considers himself "above-average" at most. | ||
+ | *While he's consumed alcohol during some social occasions, Darrell isn't a big drinker and prefers to be of sound and sober mind. Primarily due to him valuing his intelligence and not wanting to kill off any of those precious brain cells of his as well as wanting to be in top shape in case he needs to be ready to suit up for a fight. | ||
+ | *Outside of his apartment in Millennium City, Darrell has several hideaways in the form of secluded hackerspaces and a personal armory, previously owned by Flashpoint's grandfather. | ||
+ | *Is a big fan of rock music. More specifically hard rock, alternative rock, and electronic rock. | ||
+ | **Some bands that he appears to frequent or listen to primarily consist of '''Ashes Remain''', '''Falling in Reverse''', '''From Ashes to New''', '''Set It Off''', and '''Starset'''. | ||
+ | *Is also a fan of rap rock as well. | ||
+ | **Bands frequented from this genre consist of '''Deuce''', From Ashes to New, and '''Hollywood Undead'''. | ||
+ | *Glitch is extremely agnostic and a non-believer in magic, claiming that "magic" is some form of advanced molecular manipulation fueled by the creative subconscious that is one's own imagination. Though its rare he ever openly announces this in a given setting or conversation. | ||
