POWERS: Like all members of the Paladin Brigade Brax operates a custom made & tailored suit of armor that utilizes the inactive “psionic” abilities coded inside his genome to enhance its user with increased strength, speed, and stamina as well as being tapped into a state of the art multifaceted satellite surveillance and communication network. Brax's unique abilities are concussive in nature.
HISTORY: The Brigade offers tactical support, investigative services, fugitive retrieval services, fugitive apprehension services, and more for the world court’s ‘Criminal Psionic Consortium‘ in the investigation and apprehension of psionic criminals. It’s largest client/partner is the U.S. Marshal Service although the Brigade does have a public division as well.
Brax is a charter member of the Brigade, clocking thousands of hours in Virtual Reality while the technology was being developed. Once a petty thief and criminal Brax was offered a chance to redeem him self and allowed out of prison to test his limited psionics in the Brigade’s technology. He now operates as a trainer and teacher of new recruits as well as federal officers who are not with the Brigade but use it’s technology.
