Appearance

The Doctor is a Caucasian male of slightly taller than average height with a wiry build. He is extraordinarily unhealthy looking: Pale, sallow skin. Bloodshot eyes with dark rings underneath. Prominent white stripe in otherwise black (probably dyed) hair, which he shaves on the sides and has the rest in a short ponytail. A rather grisly scar is visible on his neck from when a vampire tried to take a bite out of him during the attack of the vampire lord Adrian Arkwright on Millennium City. He has a large number of tattoos covering his body, the most visible being the caudecus on his neck and the letters on his knuckles spelling the phrase DONT HARM.

He likes to dress stylishly. Black and white formal and business casual wear with crimson accents and black leather accessories, if the situation calls for it made from reinforced fabric. His outfits are usually tailor-made and contain a multitude of hidden compartments and pockets to store weapons, equipment and nasty surprises for his enemies. He never leaves the house without some sort of sunglasses or shades, mostly tinted in some shade of red and made from reinforced material to prevent them from breaking in combat situations. He has also been known to carry a walking cane with a silver tip and handle, the latter formed like a serpent's head to emulate a rod of Asclepius.

The Story

Activities before Disappearance

Reports about the Doctor's interactions with the metahuman world before his appearance in Millennium City are sketchy at best. Some evidence exists which suggests the involvement of a mercenary and assassin for hire fitting the Doctor’s description in various civil wars, military coups and organized crime syndicates around the world, but the validity of this evidence is questionable. The first confirmed sighting of the Doctor is the murder of the British vigilante Mr. Grey in Edinburgh. From that point on the Doctor has been confirmed to regularly come into conflict with various superheroes and supervillains. A list of the Doctor's most infamous accomplishments and (suspected) victims follows:

• Royal Mile, Edinburgh: The Doctor is confirmed to be responsible for the murder of the British vigilante Mr. Grey. Mr. Grey was found with his neck broken on the roof of a commercial building on Edinburgh's Royal Mile. Residents reported several loud explosions coming from inside the building. Mr. Grey was seen entering the building several minutes later. Most CCTV cameras had been damaged by the explosions, but a few seconds of blurry footage confirms a fight between the vigilante and the Doctor occurred. The commercial building was scheduled for demolition afterwards and the property bought by an ARGENT subsidiary.

One of the few intact pieces of surveillance footage of the Doctor's activities during that time.

• Salle D'Paix, Marseille: The Doctor is the prime suspect in the murder of the superheroine Miss International. A highly proficient omniglot, telepath and martial artist, she was to hold a speech at an UNTIl-sponsored gala event. During her speech she was shot to death by the security personnel as her psychic powers unintentionally activated and placed repeated telepathic suggestions to do so in the minds of the guards. Investigation of the crime scene reveals that Miss International might have been the victim of brainwashing herself. Subliminal messages convincing her of convincing the security personnel to shoot her had been added to the speech on her prompter. Eye witnesses later testified that one of the technicians preparing the event resembled the Doctor.

• Singapore Changi Airport, Singapore: The Doctor is suspected to be responsible for the death of the supervillainess Shinigami on behalf of an unknown client. Shinigami was an infamous superpowered terrorist who saw it as her personal mission to 'guide as many lost souls to the next life, no matter if they like it or not'. Together with a large number of her followers she attacked Singapore Changi Airport, planning to blow it up - along with everyone inside. The Doctor ambushed Shinigami on the runways, eventually killing her with her own explosives. While Shinigami's mass murder had been prevented and most of her followers captured, the resulting damage to the airport ran into the billions and the Doctor was able to escape in the panic.

• Congo River Delta, Congo Republic: The Doctor is suspected to be responsible for the murder of the renegade VIPER supervillain Snapping Turtle. Snapping Turtle was the leader of a VIPER operation tasked with smuggling blood diamonds out of the country before he and his troops betrayed VIPER and attempted to flee with a large shipment. According to one of Snapping Turtle's surviving soldiers, their VTOL crashed in the Congo River Delta after a precise anti-materiel rifle shot to the engine. Afterwards they encountered a number of carefully designed traps and ambushes during their trek back to civilization. Only a few made it back, with Snapping Turtle himself dying in a devious microfilament wire trap. The shipment of diamonds disappeared in the chaos.

• Villa 31, Buenos Aires: The Doctor is confirmed to be responsible for the murder of the DEMON supervillain Padre Venganza, who was the leader of a Demonhame in the shanty town Villa 31. As a surviving DEMON cultist confirmed, his plan was to incite a riot against the richer parts of Buenos Aires and use the resulting rage and misery to saturate the source of his power, a talisman in the form of a necklace. Padre Venganza was found dead with a gunshot wound in his forehead in his apartment, surrounded by a pile of necklaces, which one of his cultists confirmed to be exact copies of his own. The Demonhame was raided shortly after by local law enforcement and eye witnesses have confirmed to have seen the Doctor at several parties in the richer parts of Buenos Aires during the following days. The real necklace remains lost.

• Project Greenskin, New Mexico: After the infamous German supervillain Offizier 99 tried to steal a US nuclear weapon in transit and had been stopped and captured by the US superhero Supreme, a prisoner transport was scheduled to bring Offizier 99 from Project Greenskin to Stronghold. Supreme himself escorted the convoy, which unfortunately never made it to Stronghold. A team of unknown but highly trained black ops soldiers under the leadership of a man resembling the Doctor attacked the convoy, killed Offizier 99 and disappeared. Supreme died in the attack from a precise shot to the head with a kendrium-coated bullet.

• Downtown, Millennium City: In what is quite possibly one of the only jobs he ever botched, the Doctor is one of the prime suspects in the attempted murder of Claire Thompson, heir to the multi-million shipping company Pegasus Shipping. On her 18th birthday Claire Thompson was on her way to sign the papers that would make her the sole heir to the company when she was ambushed by an unknown assailant and shot in the chest three times. Even though she was on the brink of death, she awoke only a few hours later without any injuries and perfectly healthy in a hospital, ready to claim her fortune. Unknown to the public, Claire Thompson also discovered her powers that day and subsequently became the heroine Demoness.

• Westside, Millennium City: A bomb threat of considerable magnitude caused Millenium City authorities to send a team of heroes to investigate. The team managed to track down the source of the threat and subsequently had to fight through a warehouse full of deadly traps and remote-controlled combat drones, before managing to confront the masked terrorist. While they managed to defeat and capture him, he revealed the location of his bombs before they managed to unmask him: All over the city and already activated. The heroes had to split up to disarm each one in time. When they returned to the warehouse the mysterious terrorist had disappeared. Some of the involved heroes claim that the terrorist's voice and mannerisms resembled the Doctor's.

• Westside Central Prison, Millennium City: The Doctor is the prime suspect in the murder of the supervillain Blaster. Several of the assigned prison guards had complained about a number of incidents including technological malfunctions, unusually rowdy inmates and missing equipment, which kept them occupied with menial tasks and paperwork almost the whole night. Blaster was found in the morning in his still locked cell with his throat slit. Unusual energy readings were found at the scene, but scans and analyses of the readings are inconclusive.

• Downtown, Millennium City: The Doctor is the prime suspect in the double murder of the superheroine Ballista and the supervillain Brimstone. Ballista and Brimstone killed each other during a vicious battle in the streets of Millenium City, despite both of them being known as unwilling to kill. Autopsy reports revealed a high dose of a yet unidentified hallucinogenic chemical in their bloodstreams. Ballista, known as a dedicated clubber and part-time DJ was seen leaving the Incubus nightclub on the previous evening in the company of a man roughly resembling the Doctor, while underworld rumors suggest that Brimstone left the Black Salon nightclub in the company of an unknown red-haired woman.

• Millennium City Convention Center, Millennium City: Witnesses claim that the Doctor was sighted in the crowd during a presentation of cybernetics and prosthetics mogul George Verner during which he was to present his company's latest breakthrough in cybernetic spines. The gala was crashed by supervillainess Litany, who the Doctor allegedly helped fight off. He disappeared together with a team of unknown black ops soldiers after relaying a message to George Verner after the battle. Mr. Verner still refuses to disclose the nature of the message.

• Duskview Apartment Complex, Millennium City: The Doctor allegedly helped a group of heroes investigate the disappearance of a SWAT team in the Duskview Apartment Complex of Westside and battled the responsible supervillainess Spiderling together with the heroes. He disappeared just like Spiderling herself after an explosion brought down half of the building before further law enforcement personnel could arrive. Neither Spiderling's nor the Doctor's body was found in the ruins.

• Downtown, Millennium City: Eyewitnesses claim that the Doctor was involved in an attack on a group of Lemurian ambassadors to Millennium City. While on the way to meet mayor Calvin Biselle, the ambassadors' convoy was attacked by the supervillains Dirge and Judicator along with a group of hired thugs. The Doctor and a group of unknown black ops soldiers also attacked, resulting in a chaotic three-way battle between the security forces (MCPD, a group of superheroes and the Lemurian bodyguards), Dirge and Judicator's forces and the Doctor's men. While none of the ambassadors were injured and a diplomatic crisis was averted, Dirge and Judicator as well as the Doctor and his men were able to escape in the chaos.

• Renaissance Center, Millennium City: During one of Dr. Destroyer's attacks on Millennium City, the Doctor - together with several unknown black ops soldiers - has been seen in a black helicopter circling over a battle of several superheroes against one of Dr. Destroyer's Mega-Destroids. He has allegedly participated in the battle on the side of the heroes, taking several shots at one of the Mega-Destroids with a sniper rifle out of the helicopter. A similar helicopter was sighted two weeks later during one of Takofanes' attacks on the city, helping to keep the lich's hordes of zombies at bay.

• Maxwell Avenue, Millennium City: The Doctor is suspected to be involved in an instance of unusual energy readings which occurred here. A group of heroes was sent to investigate these spikes of dimensional energy near City Hall. Upon arriving at the site of the latest spike, the heroes disappeared and could not be found in any way, magical or technological. An hour later the group appeared again in the same spot and the energy readings stopped. Witnesses claim to have seen the Doctor in the area, but his involvement is still arguable, since the heroes have no memory of the time they 'disappeared'.

• Old Detroit Memorial Park, Millennium City: The Doctor is the prime suspect in the double murder of the superhero Captain Eagle and his sidekick Girlscout II. Captain Eagle and Girlscout II have been found dead (blasted with thermobaric explosives and shot in the head respectively) in the area after their vehicle, the Patriot Plane, had been shot down by an unknown attacker using a thermobaric missile launcher. Despite quick response of law enforcement and several superheroes, no trace of the killer could be found, but analysis of the crime scene confirms that similar explosives were used by the Doctor on several other occasions.

• Westside, Millennium City: According to witnesses, the leader of a group of VIPER agents responsible for a hostage situation near Carl's Gym bore a striking resemblance to the Doctor. The group of agents assaulted a jewelry store and took the girlfriend of a well-known and highly popular superhero hostage, while her boyfriend was trapped in the sewers of the city during an investigation after several hidden explosives went off. A group of unaffiliated heroes managed to free the hostage, but the group of VIPER operatives managed to escape. NOTE: The hostage's boyfriend was involved with the investigation of the above-mentioned double murder of Captain Eagle and his sidekick.

• Inner Easton, Vibora Bay: Eyewitnesses confirm that the Doctor is responsible for the murder of the vampire Mina Rose. Ms. Rose was a prominent member of the New Shadows gang and herself responsible for the murder of 18 people. The Doctor ambushed the her and her posse in a park in Inner Easton and used a wide variety of anti-vampire weaponry and equipment to dispose of them. Ms. Rose herself (or rather a pile of ash and bones confirmed to be her through DNA analysis) was found with a collapsible steel stake buried in her ribcage. After two weeks the investigation had been closed due to public protests.

• Place D'Concorde, Paris: The Doctor is confirmed to be responsible for the murder of the French superhero Solar. Solar was to hold a speech about the importance of metahumans and baseline humans working together in harmony as part of festivities spanning several days. He died in the middle of his speech from an until then unknown poison in his drink. A member of the catering service for the event was later found unconscious and tied up in his apartment in one of Paris' suburbs. The man claims to have been ambushed in his apartment by a man whose description fits the Doctor.

• Ionizer HQ, Neo-Tokyo: The Doctor is confirmed to be responsible for the murder of Japanese superhero Ionizer. After Ionizer had fought against multiple unknown assailants in several areas of Neo-Tokyo and investigated a large fire in the warehouse district, he was found poisoned and with various severe bone fractures just outside of his partly destroyed HQ on the outskirts of the city. Partly restored CCTV footage revealed that the Doctor left the area shortly after Ionizer's confirmed time of death.

• Rivertown, Millennium City: The Doctor is the prime suspect in the murder of industrial magnate Cornelius Preston AKA retired superhero Forgemaster and the disappearance of his daughter Alice Preston. Cornelius Preston was found dead with a single gunshot wound in his forehead in his luxury mansion in the neighborhood of Rivertown. No signs of forced entrance or other evidence has been found. Alice Preston was later found (and after a number of chaotic events also involving the Doctor arrested, see below) in the company of Chinese supervillain Golden Dragon.

• PRIMUS Quarantine Zone, San Francisco: During the outbreak of an unknown virus with mutagenic properties in the San Francisco Bay Area, the Doctor had allegedly infiltrated the PRIMUS quarantine zone disguised as a FEMA-sponsored superhero. After the outbreak had been contained, PRIMUS officials discovered that blood samples of infected individuals as well a batch of the vaccine had been stolen in the chaos.

• Downtown, Millennium City: The Doctor has been sighted during a kaiju attack on Millennium City. Witnesses claim that he observed the battle between the giant monsters emerging from the Detroit river and several superheroes. He also occasionally contributed with precision attacks to help tip the battle in the heroes' favor. After the kaiju were driven away, he disappeared and a thorough search of the area provided no clue regarding his involvement.

• Halcyon R&D Facility, Canadian Wilderness: According to underworld rumors the Doctor has participated in an attack on a R&D facility of Halcyon Industries in a remote area of Canada together with several other supervillains. The attack cost most of the guards and personnel their lives, utterly destroyed the facility and unleashed a giant monster of unknown species onto the nearby forests. While the threat of the monster was later neutralized by a team of dedicated heroes, the purpose of the attack, the nature of Halcyon Industries' research at the site and the Doctor's exact involvement in the event is still unknown.

• Las Vegas, Nevada: The Doctor is one of the prime suspects for the massacre that took place during the wedding of Las Vegas superhero Chevalier and his bride Melissa Wyatt. Both bride and groom were found dead in the garage of the Seraph Gate Hotel and Casino after several fights between two unknown assailants, Chevalier, his best friend and Las Vegas vigilante Night Stalker and the security personnel broke out. The couple seems to have been killed by Chevalier's own questionite saber. Both assailants fled the scene and Night Stalker has also disappeared since then. Investigation by local authorities revealed a suspicious entry in the wedding's guest list: Dr. Hugo M. Locke.

In total, the Doctor is confirmed to be responsible for the murder of 7 superheroes and supervillains and the prime suspect in at least 13 more, along with a rather extensive list of other crimes ranging from burglary to terrorism. Despite the best efforts of law enforcement and various superheroes, the Doctor has never been detained for longer than a few days, with evidence linking him to many crimes often mysteriously vanishing, causing many to suspect that he has one or even several influential allies or sponsors.

Then, some day he just disappeared from the face of the earth, with his last confirmed sighting at the Millennium City airport, boarding a private flight to Canada.

Activities after Disappearance

Almost one year passed with no trace of the Doctor. Many believed that his lifestyle and rep sheet had finally caught up to him, until he reappeared one day with both manpower and resources as well as the clear plan to permanently establish himself as a fixture in Millennium City's underworld. That was the birth of the criminal organization known as the Men in White. The MiW soon carved out a place between Westside's other gangs for themselves, greatly aided by the Doctor's experience and cunning. In particular, the MiW muscled in on the market for drugs, weapons and similar illicit goods. Under the Doctor's leadership, later supported by the raw killing power and skill of heavyweight metahuman assassin Killshot, who the Doctor recruited to the cause, the MiW - despite being deeply rooted in Westside and street-level crime - managed to become a legitimate threat to heroes of all power levels and an institution respected by villains and criminal organizations throughout Millennium City and beyond. Some of the Doctor's and the MiW's most (in)famous accomplishments during that time can be found below:

The Doctor, surveying his turf.

• Graham Industrials Facility, Millennium City: A surprise attack on the Graham Industrial facility by a mysterious group of white-clad thugs led to a chaotic battle, as the unknown attackers, a large group of Maniacs, two of Millennium City's heroes and Graham Industrials' security forces clashed on the company's property. Witnesses report that the leader of the unknown thugs identified himself as the Doctor towards one of the heroes. Even though the combined forces of heroes and security personnel managed to prevent the situation from getting out of hand, the Doctor and his forces managed to escape with several samples of potentially dangerous chemicals via a cloaked VTOL gunship.

• Westside, Millennium City / Monastery of the Order of the Mutilated Saint, Romania: During the attack of the ancient vampire lord Adrian Arkwright on Millennium City, the Doctor and his gang settled on an uneasy truce with the city's heroes to help stem the tide against Arkwright's legions and clean the streets of the magical drug called the Thirst, which Arkwright used to infect the people and increase his own power. The Doctor and his gang - along with members of several other criminal organizations he managed to convince - helped defending Westside and its population against the vampires' onslaught. According to rumors the Doctor was also sent on a secret mission to Romania along with several heroes to retrieve an ancient artifact which proved to be crucial in Arkwright's defeat. As usual, the Doctor and his troops disappeared shortly after the crisis was over.

• Airspace near Iwo Jima, Pacific Ocean: The Doctor was responsible for organizing the breakout of the infamous mercenary Killshot from PRIMUS custody. Killshot was to be transported to a high-security facility in Australia via a PRIMUS aircraft. Said aircraft was to meet the UNTIL Heli-Carrier Helsinki near Iwo Jima and subsequently accompany it to Sydney. However the aircraft was hijacked by a group of villains and Killshot was freed. Even though the Helsinki managed to intercept in time, the villains escaped custody together with Killshot via a VTOL clearly identified as the Phaeton, the Doctor's personal aircraft. During the breakout, the Helsinki was heavily damaged and the heroine Lady Scout lost her life when she engaged the Phaeton with her own aircraft.

• Westside, Millennium City: Using intel gained during Adrian Arkwright's attack on Millennium City, the Doctor exposed the identities of the collaborators the vampire lord used to distribute the Thirst. The people of Westside - assisted by a team of vigilantes calling themselves the Justiciars - reacted to this information by rioting and forming a lynch mob for these dealers (the Doctor's competition in the drug trade). If not for a team of dedicated heroes, the dealers would have been publically executed by the mob. The heroes managed to talk down the Justiciars and by extent the mob. Afterwards a member of the Justiciars - Jury - helped the heroes track down the source of the propaganda the Doctor had used to rile up the public. However when they infiltrated the abandoned printing company the Doctor had used as his base of operations, the only thing they did find was a hologram of the Doctor taunting them and siccing a vampire he had captured during Arkwright's attack and subsequently 'improved' via drugs on them. Unfortunately the creature managed to kill Jury before the team of heroes managed to destroy it. Even though the riots were stopped and Millennium City was safe again, the Doctor managed to escape once more.

• Jameson Docks, Westside: The Doctor and a large group of Men In White were seen assaulting a private freighter on the St. Jameson Docks. A vicious shootout between the Men in White and a group of black-clad paramilitary personnel defending the freighter broke out. A team of heroes investigating the disturbance was able to break up the fight, only to discover that the freighter contained a massive shipment of drugs, weapons and other illegal goods. The heroes were also attacked by the Chinese terrorist supervillain Xing Tian, who apparently tried to protect said shipment. While the team of heroes managed to defeat Xing Tian and his men and secure the freighter, the Doctor's involvement with Xing Tian and his mysterious employer, the Golden Dragon remains unclear. The Doctor and the Men in White managed to leave the scene shortly after Xing Tian was apprehended.

• Jameson Docks, Westside: Only a few days after the above mentioned incident, a sleeper cell of the Golden Dragon's men managed to break Xing Tian out of Westside Central Prison. The villain immediately made his way back to the now abandoned freighter at St. Jameson Docks to retrieve another set of power armor from a secret stash. The Doctor and a group of Men In White intercepted Xing Tian and his soldiers. A chaotic battle broke out when the trio of vigilantes known as the Justiciars (the new Jury being the sister of the previous one) intervened. The already damaged freigther was completely destroyed and all of the Justiciars, Xing Tian and his soldiers as well as a large number of Men In White were found dead at the scene. The Doctor was not to be found.

• ACI Security Solutions Warehouse, Westside: The Doctor and a group of his Men In White were responsible for an assault on the Westside storage facility of ACI Securtiy Solutions, a subsidiary of Franklin Stone's ACI Technologies. The assault was stopped in time by a group of heroes who managed to take the Doctor and his men into custody. The arriving MCPD managed to secure the area, but the Doctor was able to trick law enforcment into giving him the means of remotely hijacking the warehouse's security drones and ordered them to attack both MCPD and heroes. While the heroes managed to take out the haywire drones and nobody was severely hurt, the Doctor managed to escape in the chaos.

• Millennium City Opera House, Downtown: The Doctor along with a large number of Men In White were responsible for an attack and subsequent short occupation of the Millennium City Opera House during a performance of Richard Wagner's Die Walküre. They took both the audience and the opera house staff hostage. MCPD and a group of the Protectors of the World discovered that the Doctor and his men had proceeded to inject their hostages with some sort of strange chemical. As they prepared to storm the opera house, the Doctor called for negotiations to explain the situation. He and his men were hunting for the Chinese shapeshifting terrorist Bai Gu Jing, another associate of the mysterious Golden Dragon. The chemical's purpose was to find the Bai Gu Jing among the crowd. A reluctant alliance was formed and when the sinister shapeshifter revealed herself, the Protectors managed to defeat her with the Doctor's assistance. While he managed to escape once more, the Doctor promised to contact the Protectors again to deal with the Golden Dragon himself.

• International waters near Greenland, North Atlantic / Wall Street, New York City / Taihang Mountains, China / Vladivostok, Russia: The Doctor and the Men in White are confirmed to be involved in the Golden Dragon conspiracy, which threatened not only Millennium City, but the whole world economy. While exact details are unclear to this day, apparently the Men in White and the Protectors of the World set their differences aside once again to stop the Golden Dragon's forces from destroying a high-tech oil processing facility in the North Atlantic, conducted a secret mission in New York City to weaken the Golden Dragon's power, confronted the Golden Dragon in his mansion in China and finally hunted down the true culprit behind the conspiracy in Vladivostok.

• Goodman Institute, Millennium City: The Doctor and the Men in White were involved in a terrorist attack on Millennium City's Goodman Institute, which caused extensive damage to the facility and led to the supervillain Conner Blackwood AKA Rift being freed from custody inside the institute. While all hostages were freed by the Protectors of the World, the Doctor and the Men in White were able to flee the scene along with Rift. According to witness reports the Men in White were utilizing a powerful, new hallucinogenic chemical weapon in their attack and subsequent battle with the Protectors.

• Downtown, Millennium City / UNTIL HQ, Millennium City: The Doctor and the Men in White, along with the top assassin Killshot, the chronokinetic Rift, the malevolent AI M.A.D.A.M., the sinister demigod Misercorde, the power-armored mercenary Vulture, and the cyborg Campaign were part of the Shadow Manifest, an alliance of supervillains brought together by the mysterious Arc-Angel. While Arc-Angel's goal was the utter annihilation of the superhero Peacemaker, the members of the Shadow Manifest were tasked with distracting the heroes of Millennium City while furthering their own personal goals at the same time, even assaulting the UNTIL HQ in Millennium City at some point! Even though Arc-Angel's plan was ultimately foiled by a coalition of heroes, the Shadow Manifest terrorized Millennium City for a whole week.
