[edit] Equipment
Power gear made up of Boots , carring power supply for all other items , Gloves giving energy attacks , Belt which controls reguales and manages the implants Implants .. a wide range of bio enhancers . beyond Power gear , he carries a basic medic kits , a hi-band radio phone ,a bluetooth PDA , a number press packs , and pre signed photos , And a collection of Realisation Inc "hero" products .. note none of these go into the make up of Ace
[edit] Character History
Oliver Breus waqs born to well off parents in a well off part of Paragon city , his father worked in in the banking industry , his mother a MD . He had a normal childhood with one exception ..Heroes .. he became a total Hero geek (( think the sort of Trekie who writes into to the TV shows to correct their Klingon grammer ))collecting all the action figures , card games , tee-shirts , phone cards , dvd's et al . As he grew up this obsession with Heroes remained , and after his parents gave up hoping he would grow out of it , they had the good sense to use it as a carrot reward system to ensure he worked hard at school and collage in return for money to waste on Hero cons and collectables and comics , and he soon showed he had a good brain winning a place at the Harvard Business school.
At Harvard he studied Business managment and graduated summa cum laude , the top of his class . At the same time he pursued his Hero dreams , he learnt unarmed combat , how to shoot , given the number of high profile targets at Harvard he was able to find training in protection techniquies and driving , he learn EMT medical skills , and even fire fighting ..aged20 he spent his savings having his DNA tested for the meatgene .. result nil .
With his Harvard degree he soon found a very well paid job with a business consultancy firm , and found that he was brilliant and reorganising companies , he was able to see the whole picture and soon gained a reputation of being abble to deal with both the workers and the unions and the shareholders and managers , making his revamping both efficent and rapid . Soon headhunted by the one of the top consultant firm , WHR Business plc , he found himself very wealthy at the age of 25.
His reputation and brilliance at work allowed him a lot of free time towork on his private project ..becoming a Hero.
Using his contacts in the world of businessthe tracked down a series of small high tech companies , each working upon a suitible item for his Hero ..a biometric meter here , a synthetic adrenal discharger there , energy discargers ,lymphosytic enhancers , Osseous tissue enhancers , hyper capacitors .. and to his joy he found most of these little companies run by science geeks who where in despirate need of someone with business skill to save their company . Thus he was able to trade his skills for a "sample" piece of high technology , using each sample to open the door to the next company . Over three years he became the middle man linking a number of such companies together and finding funding for the R&D work on a number of special items , that he needed for his design but disguied as work commissioned by third parties , in the end he founded his own company Realisation Inc .He has used all his business skills to hide any link between himself and his new company.
Using Realisation Inc. as cover he completed his gathering of parts , next he arranged to "borrow" a robotic auto-surgeon from one of his client companies , and used it to implant the various biometric enhancer sysytem be had collected . He found that with out the "control" belt managing the collection of systems he was in trouble with items not designed to work together competing vs each other to run his body , if fact as some of the items where not design for the use he was putting them to he discovered that for "normal "life he had to make sure they where all down powered. This crerated a problem , as the start up process , guided by the control belt , takes seven minutes .Also the gloves and boots where bulky and not readly concealable . He would need to plan his Hero events
Oliver now finds his life was set into three competing strands , one his normal life working for WHR consultants . Two working with and for his client companies and keeping Realisation Inc solvent , for though he was wealthy , he is not rich enough to own any of the cutting edge technology he is using ,he must keep juggling the client companies to ensure they remain happy , and to make sure that Realisation Inc can continue to pay its bills for the loaned / leased technology. Strand three is his hero life , sofar he has only , very carfully , made a few test runs , these have uncovered a few bugs , and so he has a plan to look for some fellow virgin heros to work with . To deal with his major issue of Realisation Inc. he has used a minor PR company to promote his company and its work in creating devices for Hero work , minor item such are emp hardend phones , dermal sealers , anti-flare lenses ...though none are yet for sale he hopes for some investment , he has used his Hero as a promotional figure for Realisation Inc.'s products , making miinor PR appearances.
unknown to Oliver when running his enhancers and being the hero Ace Powerfist , the combiination of certain implants causes a massive ego boast to occur , his self belief goes off the scale , and a side effect is be gets positive emotional feedback from praise and adoration .. ..in short he loves the roar of the crowd and meeting and greeting fans ..
[edit] Trivia
The promo tag Realization Inc. has used for its products has become Ace's catchphrase ... "a hero built for tomorrow , here today "...
