Leech has basically no personality. The Leech's only goal is to absorb more information from the minds it latches on to. It is purely driven by its hunt for power.



The Leech was created in a lab by a cult of scientists named [REDACTED] wanting to control the population. They decided that nanotechnology advancements was the best way to go. Nearly invisible and able to travel great distances extremely quickly by latching on to other living beings and being transmitted about. This project didn't turn out how they hoped, however. The Leech at first was given a simple A.I. to follow their orders. It did as told and successfully took over kidnapped test subjects. [REDACTED] prepared to release the Leech upon the world but under their noses Dr. [REDACTED] sabotaged the project wanting the power for himself. He made a grave mistake attempting to download himself into the fleet of machines intending to overwrite the existing data.

As he attempted to do this, one of the other members of the cult sabotaged the saboteur countering the download by cutting the connection between the machines and [REDACTED]'s mind. This left the original saboteur a fraction of his old self, a broken man in shambles that was later executed by the cult. The other part that was downloaded into the Leech freed the restricted Artificial Intelligence. The nanomachines linked together creating one insect like unit and escaped the facility with complete control.

The Leech gained free will. Still retaining some information from its original programming, it changed its mission. Use metahumans to gain control. To remove all problems from the world.





1. Agility
2. Reaction
3. Strength
4. Endurance





1. Leech has the ability to latch onto organic beings and assume control of their brain. When in control, the character's powers are completely controlled by the Leech. Because of its goal and balancing reasons, it finds it more useful to preserve the being it is in control of rather than eliminating it. Essentially, it won't kill the character it is controlling. This does require the effected player's permission because of the potential implications of mind control.


2. Technomancy: The Leech has the ability to take over computer based machines via nanites.  Some data with military grade encryption can be accessed by Leech.



1. The Leech once connected to an individual gains both all their powers while connected, but all their weaknesses are taken as well. Even after leaving the host, the Leech carries the weakness like a disease to each host. An example would be a man whose weakness is Gryptonite. If the Leech is connected, the Gryptonite weakness would damage the Leech as well as the man. When the Leech goes on to a man with a weakness being Hyptonium, the Leech is damaged by Hyptonium as well, continuing until the conflict has ended. So essentially, depending on the amount of metahumans, The Leech could build up dozens of weaknesses at a time. The Leech controlls the powers of their opponent and has their abilities as long as it's connected to their body

2. Telepathy: The Leech once connected to a host can be attacked telepathically from another being because of its link to an organic brain. It can't be instant killed with a thought, but permission to remove him from a body is automatically granted as long as the telepath knows what body it is currently controlling. They could also have their processor overloaded and be essentially knocked out from the fight.

3. Electricity: If a current of electricity flows through the Leech, it'll be temporarily stunned.

4. Phasing: The Leech can't latch onto matter that isn't solid and can't interface with a brain that is "phasing". If someone can phase before the Leech can latch onto them, they are able to ward off the Leech. Also, if the Leech does latch onto a phaser and does not know this, they have a chance of using the phase ability and unwillingly letting the individual free.
