SUBJECT: Blue Pheasant

History

"Ha ha I'm just another hero, trying to make the world a better place."

Synopsis

One of the many costumed heroes who helps ensure peace and justice in an otherwise perilous world. His mobility and adaptability hint at him being highly trained, with an array of gadgets that may or may not be of his own design. One would be forgiven for thinking this blue, bird-themed hero to be a dark, brooding individual...until he opens his mouth. At that point, it becomes perfectly clear that the Blue Pheasant is quite pleasant to be around. With how socially open he is, the only greater mystery than his identity is how he's managed to keep it hidden in the first place!

Known Actions

"BP-File 001:

...The unknown hero, now registered as 'The Blue Pheasant', was able to provide us with the information we needed on Operation Calypso. With their help, we were able to send a task force to dispose of the growing occult threat in Arkansas...but I'm left with many questions:

How did they acquire this information so quickly? How did they acquire this information so thoroughly? How did they contact us so quickly? Why has my request to investigate him been denied?"

The Blue Pheasant first appeared on July 5th 2019, When our operatives struggled to locate the holdout of a group of demon summoners in Arkansas. The costumed hero appeared with detailed maps and a plan of attack, before stepping back to allow the assigned agents to carry out the mission. Since that day, The Blue Pheasant has appeared across the United States, conducting investigations before handing the information over to other heroes to solve. Despite this deliberate disassociation with the victorious results, it hasn't stopped the hero from gaining a small amount of acclaim. The following is a list of events that we can confirm his involvement in:

07/05/17: Possum Grape, Arkansas. Led PRIMUS Operatives to a holdout of demon worshipers.

07/05/17-07/05/19: UNKNOWN. Returned with a new display of skills and equipment.

07/24/19: Church's Ferry, North Dakota. Routed a vampire coven single-handedly.

08/13/19: Savannah, Georgia. Conducted a solo investigation on a group of child traffickers, before passing the information to a group of up-and-coming heroes. Reports show that he monitored them from above, only stepping in to help.

09/01/19-10/06/19: Time spent in Millennium City. Actions unknown.

Appearance

<Excerpt From a PRIMUS Investigation dated July Twenth-Fourth, Twenty-Seventeen>

"BP-File 002:

The Blue Pheasant has appeared again, and I've decided to continue requesting an investigation. Nothing has come up yet, but I've managed to acquire some photos to attach to this document. They're not the best, but at the very least we will be able to readily identify him at a later date. However, most of the photographs I received were confiscated for also "containing classified materials", though I fail to see what was so important in them."

The Blue Pheasant stands at an even six feet, but this is a rough estimate that does not account for any changes in equipment. We do not know how much they weigh, either, but comparing their figure with our own agents would give us a rough estimate of One-Sixty pounds. Overall, he is on the leaner side in comparison to other superheroes. They carry themselves with an air of calm focus and dignity; in such a way that compels our agents to stand at attention when he talks. Most sightings of the Pheasant have placed him within the same (or same type of) suit: a jointed, pale-blue bodysuit with an integrated armored breastplate adorned with a dark blue wingspan insignia, a dark blue star on each shoulder, and a toolbelt resting above an armored subligar. Overall, the look has been described as being reminiscent of iron age hero attire. The Pheasant appears to have other suits for varying situations but, regardless of the make and type of suit that he is wearing, two things about the Pheasant's dress are certain; a dull-blue and gray color scheme, and a distinctive full helmet with a wingspan-pattern over the eyes and an art deco-styled plumage in the back.

No one knows what The Blue Pheasant Looks like under that helmet. This has led to more than a few of our Assault Agents coming up with their own theories. It has reached a point where there is now a multi-team pool where they are placing bets as to the Pheasant's appearance. Some believe that he has the look of a grizzled veteran, or that he is hiding some sort of disfigurement. Others believe he's 'handsome, like every other superhero'. Other, more extreme, ideas are that he is a robot...not to mention a few Agents claiming he is a woman (despite the Pheasant's own statements saying otherwise). Regardless of the speculation of our agents, we won't know further until additional information makes itself apparent.

...And, as a reminder to our agents, you are not to approach the Pheasant and attempt to de-mask them; they were polite enough to let the last agent who tried off with a warning. However, further attempts might deprive us of their assistance.

Personality

<Excerpt From a PRIMUS Investigation dated September Fifteenth, Twenty-Seventeen>

"BP-File 003:

...The Blue Pheasant is not like other, similar Vigilantes. He's prone to socialize, and readily gives out personal information to others. None of it has given me any clues, but I do have to wonder how he manages to keep his identity a secret in the first place. I'm starting to think he has help...but from where? From who? I've been instructed not to be concerned; that he is a non-issue...but that only increases my suspicions. I'll be keeping my investigation a secret from here on out...ith any luck, the Pheasant will let something I can use slip."

Skills, Assets, and Attributes

<Excerpt From an unofficial PRIMUS Investigation dated September Seventh, Twenty-Seventeen>

"BPO-File 001:

I have seen reports of the Pheasant within Millennium City, Michigan. Maybe he's trying to blend in; plenty of dark-colored, gadget-throwing, grapple-abusing, martial arts using vigilantes out there. As far as we can tell that's it, but I can't help but feel that there's something more to him. I can't quite explain it, but the way he moves is...off. Forced, fake even. Maybe it's nothing; the video footage I have is all of poor quality, and all eye-witness accounts may be exaggerated, but if they are true...? The Pheasant may well be hiding more than just his identity. I have a contact in the city, perhaps they will be able to fill me in on the details."

"BPO-File 002:

I was reprimanded by my commanding officer; my friend in the area ratted me out! I'll be on unpaid leave for awhile...but this only confirms my suspicions; he knows someone within PRIMUS. But who is it? Who is -HE-!? I'll have to be more careful with who I trust in this matter, but I promise that I -WILL- find out your identity, Pheasant! I will!"
