<div style="text-indent:40px;"> Sam Hudson was born on July 9, 1899 in Augilla, Mississipi to a family of poor dirt farmers. Despite his family's minimal wealth he found enough to keep him occupied and happy. He busied himself with shooting cans in the fields during the days and reading the works of Edgar Allan Poe in the evening. At a young age he became fascinated with the idea of a supernatural world beyond the one he was accustomed to. This lead him on numerous voyages into the surrounding wilderness in search of clues to the existence of such a world, however nothing was ever found. Three weeks after his thirteenth birthday, his mother succumbed to a brief battle with pneumonia and passed away. Several weeks later his father, stricken with grief, hung himself in their barn leaving Sam an orphan. | <div style="text-indent:40px;"> Sam Hudson was born on July 9, 1899 in Augilla, Mississipi to a family of poor dirt farmers.

He spent less than a month in the institution before he escaped one day and stowed away in a boxcar on a train bound for New Orleans. There he took to the streets and made his way by picking pockets or pilfering small items from market stalls. He marveled at the mysterious nature of the city as his old curiosity for the dark corners of the Earth began to rise once again. Shortly after his fifteenth birthday, however, war broke out across Europe and Sam enlisted illegally with the US Army and was shipped off to war thereafter. From 1914 to 1918, Sam fought beside his brothers in arms and watched many of them die all the same. His desire to have a supernatural experience waned with each of his friends that passed away on the battlefield. When the war was over, Sam Hudson went home a man, and a nearly different person altogether. He had trouble keeping a job upon returning home, as nothing could compare to his life as a soldier and he craved the excitement and fear that war had addicted him to. When Prohibition was enacted and the bootleggers began their crusade, Sam left for the hotbed of organized crime and joined the Chicago Police Department. He rose quickly to detective and distinguished himself as he helped combat organized crime through the end of Prohibition and into the Great Depression. As his life began to settle into a routine, he soon took a wife and had a child. He was nearing his forties when the case that changed his life came across his desk. |

Contents
Background and Origin
Pre-Death
To Hell and Back
Powers, Skills, and Attributes
Powers
Infernal Manipulation - During his escape from Hell, Sam Hudson formed a symbiotic relationship with the chains that once held him prisoner. Though them he controls the damning energy and focuses it against errant demons and spirits as well as common thugs, passing judgement on them as the case warrants.
Deathspeak - The Inspectre maintains the ability to communicate with departed souls, willing them back into whatever remains of their corporeal form on Earth.
Deathstride - Being tethered to both planes of life and death, The Inspectre is able to blink between them to travel short distances quickly on either side.
Skills
Expert Marksman - Having spent much of his life fighting one war or another, The Inspectre has become extraordinarily proficient with firearms, especially so with handguns.
Keenly Observant - The many years spent studying and solving crimes both mundane and supernatural have honed The Inspectre's skills finely, letting him pick up on minute details that may not seem important and correlate them to larger evidence in a case.
Fast Learner - Due to having to constantly adapt to changing times and circumstances, The Inspectre has learned how to use most modern technology required in his field of work, whether it be hacking a low security computer system or rewiring an enemy deathbot.
Attributes
Horribly Disfigured - Being burned repeatedly and having his skin flayed from his body over and over again has caused scarring over much of his body. Inhalation of scorching vapor has scarred his larynx and vocal cords, giving his voice a strained gravelly quality.
Loner - Severe emotional trauma has caused The Inspectre to draw within himself, rarely opening up to an ally. This inhibits him from making long lasting allies easily and serves to earn him the enmity and disdain of other heroes.
Glowing Eyes - The Inspectre's eyes glow with a sickly putrid green, giving him a slightly ethereal appearance, especially when concealing himself in darkness.
Gear and Equipment
Gear
Smith & Wesson .38 Police Specials This pair of revolvers has been with The Inspectre since he first made detective on the Chicago Police Department. Imbued with the energy of his Living Chains, they serve to dispatch the dark shadows in the night or incapacitate ordinary criminals lurking in the back alleys.
Grappling Hook Despite being able to walk through Purgatory from point to point, The Inspectre carries a grappling hook for a more ordinary form of quick travel.
Ravenwing - An advanced aircraft capable of long range scans and zero gravity flight. Liberated from VIPER and refitted by UNTIL.
Relationships
Lover
Occasionally Sam Hudson will endeavor to communicate with his deceased wife, Jane Hudson. He only seeks her out in desperate times, and she often encourages him from beyond the grave, inspires him to continue his crusade and offers invaluable advice.
Enemies
Wolfsangel - Ex-Nazi High Sorcerer though to posses the Spear of Destiny
