Difference between revisions of "The Beast"

There were scattered but unconfirmed reports of The Beast targeting citizens in the [[Chicago Metro Area]] dating back to early 2007. By October of 2008, The Beast was actively targeting Police officers on patrol, killing at least fifteen officers, although that number may be as high as twenty-six.  The killings culminated on November 23rd, 2008, in what the media dubbed “The Beast’s Feast.” The Beast walked into the Precinct 12 headquarters and slaughtered all 37 officers in the building. Nine of the dead officers had parts of their corpse consumed.  

Although no formal evaluation of The Beast was ever performed, reports from witnesses, including [[OEC]] agents, and crime scene analysis leads to the conclusion that The Beast was a [[Physically Enhanced]], but under a unique subset. The Beast was similar to the [[Athlete]] type, in that he expressed a mix of increased strength, speed, and reflexes. The Beast was unique, though, in that his physical features and appearance were also changed by his Differentiation. The Beast had hair and leathery skin growing all over his body. He had developed an animal like-jaw and canines, and long sharp claws.  It was suspected, though never confirmed, that The Beast possessed enhanced senses of sight, hearing, and smell. Some have speculated that The Beast possessed some level of enhanced healing ability like a [[Regenerator]], this was also never confirmed.
