Summary
David Gadley was born with his abilities but did not fully understand them until he was an adult. After his hometown was attacked by a powerful robot, which was only stopped when David intervened, revealing his true potential, David left for sometime. This time was cut short when the attack of Michigan took place. David embraced his powers and went to help fight the alien invasion.
Early Life
David was always aware that his strength was beyond normal humans but he never knew how much stronger he actually was. The only one who knew of David's true abilities was his best friend Nate.
Not long after David's superhuman potential was clear, a powerful robot attack his hometown, clearly focused on killing David. David was pushed to his limits as the fight destroyed most of downtown. The fight ended as David, seemingly flying for the first time, smashed the robot into a nearby building. Using all his strength, David punched right through the robots head, destroying it and bringing down the building with the force of his punch. Minutes went by, as the dust began to settle, before David dug his way out through the rubble. Shocked, dazed, and confused, David just left.
After watching everything on the news about the invasion of Michigan, David realized his purpose. David realized then that it's not about having power, anyone can aquire power. It's about having the power to do whatever you want and choosing to do good. David knew, for the first time in his life, why, and made his way to Millennium City.
DoD and DE:LTA
Sometime after the events of the Qularr invasion, David was contacted by the Department of Defense. David began working for the U.S. government as their secret weapon, where he started using the alias, Vitality, with Andrew Rochester as his liaison. David was equipped with an earpiece to receive direct orders from Rochester, enabling him to be where he is most needed.
Vitality worked solo for the government for about a year before his missions forced the occassional team up with the Department of Emergency: Logistics and Tactics Agency. After their missions together became more frequent, the Department of Defense officially placed Vitality within the agency.
New Delta
Delta was formed when the Department of Emergency: Logistics and Tactics Agency was shut down. When UNTIL wanted to reassign the agents into their various sub-divisions, David and a few other former DE:LTA members took a stand. The bond forged in the agency produced more than just co-workers and together they were not just the Logistics and Tactics Agency for the Department of Emergency, they were Delta, and they meant to keep it that way.
Nemeses
Ultimate
David's best friend Nathan showed up in his hometown with apparent super strength and durability that he did not have previously. Nathan explained to David that he was behind the robot that attacked him. He agreed to a deal with Teleios, to set up the fight between David and his robot, in attempt to get a sample of David's blood for his experiments. Using David's blood as a catalyst, Teleios was able to genetically enhance Nathan, giving him superhuman strength and durability. Nathan attacked David, but the fight ended quickly as David easily overpowered him. Nathan escaped after the fight and went back to Teleios. Wanting him to increase his power levels, Nathan agreed to become Teleios' Ultimate Being of Power. Teleios' new experiment combined David's blood with Draysha compound. Nathan's size and muscle mass increased exponentially, dramatically increasing his power. With his strength levels now incalculable, Nathan betrayed Teleios and completely destroyed the facility. Nathan, now going by Ultimate, began to recruit his very own army, somehow giving power to those who are loyal.

Impact
Downtown Millennium City was undergoing reconstruction after the cataclysmic fight with Ultimate had laid waste to the surrounding area, when a man was found alive under the debris from a destroyed apartment building, after aid workers discovered he was super powered when he was seen attempting to break the debris with some form of energy, they backed up and decided to call in back up. The man once freed, seemed to go on a super powered rampage, blaming Vitality for the death of his family during the fight with Ultimate, and demolishing the rebuilding work that was being done in the neighborhood. PRIMUS was called in and arrived on the scene just in time to stop a man going crazy and destroying anything further, they were able to subdue the man and lock him up in the Westside Prison.

Powers and Abilities
Superhuman Strength: David has the potential to be one of the physically strongest beings in the world depending directly on his confidence and determination. The upper limits of his strength has been theorized to equal a force greater than that recorded on the Richter scale.
Durability: David is nigh-invulnerable to almost all harm. He can withstand extreme temperatures, survive the vacuum of space, and has shown to be immune to most radiation. However, repeated punches of great force, such as those from Ultimate, can harm him over time. If he is harmed, however, David is able to recover from injuries more efficiently and quickly than someone with a normal human healing rate.
Flight: David has the ability to fly. Like his strength, the upper limits of his flight speed is unknown.
Lung Capacity: David can hold his breath in space and under water for long periods of time. It is theorized that he can survive nearly 6 days on a single breathe of air.
