And A photographic memory super eidetic memory. Able to commit entire books both normal and school text books to his mind in a manner of a hour or two per book.
The Source of this was when the Supervillain blew up the boy's house, with the family inside the blunt force trauma, and other effectively caused massive brain injuries. Something the doctor's noted if Super medicine was still even just forty years behind would have killed the young man. Instead all it did was given him an enhanced levels of intellectual ability and reflexes.

Given a Prescription of pain killers since his youth, he luckily has not let it pull him down into a self destructive spiral, but it does at times make him come across as dour, and grim, given the earlier parts.

From the Years of his life from Ten to Sixteen, he studied normal affairs, Art History, Music, History, Anthropology, and A minor in neo engineering. Things to pass the time, as the boy was too young for the adult world but too quick at his studies to stay interested in school.
Handling Drama school well and quick,at the age of Eighteen, he's gone on to have a small few year degree, several short term contracts acting on major stages in dramatic plays as if to spite the man that killed his father, before going on into other fields Mostly Movies.

The Battle Field Sol Series, Picture something Akin to Star Ship troopers, only, instead of Bugs it's a race of aggressive alien lizard people, a cross of Dino men like from Star Trek with some Reptilian conspiracy type logic.

It's a 3 part movie trilogy, spanning a what if scenario if the various giant creatures of European folk lore came back in force, Formations from the Sea, Giants and their various kin from the North, Titans from Greece, and Various Troll, and Ogre, Fir-Bolg type lesser giants as minions.

The Old Shield, A family movie, Dietrich Played an Retired police officer, that took a crippling image to his leg during a drug bust on organized crime, relegated to School Resource Office in an city school. It's a campy family film, of a retired police officer, meeting up with a kid from the wrong side of the tracks and acting as a Surrogate father to help him turn his life around. A mix of Family Fun, and Some interpersonal Drama.

The Actor, A family movie based on an Actor, classically trained, always viewed himself as playing on broad way or the like, but relegated to a TV show star of the nineties. Staring as the often Face hidden TV show character, Captain Eagle. The Premise of the Fictional show is Interstellar Space High Speed Bounty hunter and sports star, like Flash Gordan with Fast hover craft. Only this "Role" Is far from high acting entertainment as it's target audience is the Kid to Early Young adult hood. The Actor in the Movie spends so long on the role to keep his family living well, His son starts to grow and hate his father, while loving his father's fictional role.

From 98 to 2000, he did a series of four various overly cheesy, Low comedy movies, designed to be simple stupid fun to appeal to all ages of family, and all, perfectly family friendly with a subtle joke or two in there to get a chuckle out of the parents. Very Paul Blart 1, Pacifier style of family movie nonsense.

At this point using perhaps the exhuberant amount of money he got from as the Poison Pen claimed his "Greatest sin of selling art for cheap money" Dietrich found Trifinity Studios, and took his hand at Directing Movies.

The First Movie is the, "Dark Moon", the Premise is A strange Planetoid enters the sol system gravity, impact course seems harmless, it is roughly a sixth of the size of the moon, should miss, the earth, till the moon starts moving if it's own, attacking on of Jupiters moons, before firing a meteor shower at earth. The meteors turn out to be strange eldritch alien space marine drop pods, Que battle, and dramaticly destroying the being, with a tactical nuclear series of strikes with automated crash ship. Dietrich Quoted the Strange Elder worms and their kind of "Lovecraft like worship" as an Inspiration for this film. 2001.

War of the Cryptids. 2002, Dietrich Sighted Takofane's strange affinity for werewolves, and other magic bad guys fun of "Monster that go bump in the night" As inspiration for this work, it's simple, Some Homage to the "Demonologist the Leader of the Devil's Adovate" Releases the "Bell of the Monster" All of those urban legends Cryptids appear, and multiply in legion, Humans fight them off with heroes, a bit of a hoorah soldier movie meets cape movie. 2003

Dragmir 1 and 2, A strange but surprisingly fun watch of Conan Crossed with Pitch Black, a Mystical dark fantasy conan age, closer to the books than the movie. A dark eclipse that will block out the sun for years, and summon Flying demons, a thulsa doom like doomsday cult, low magic, fun all around, 2004, 2006
