Basics
Name: Aldo Medici
Nicknames: Scorpio
Age: 19
Birthday: September 3rd
Grade: 12th
Power: Poison Generation: Aldo can generate powerful neurotoxin from glands in his body. The poison can be secreted through his finger nails, mouth and his "stingers". The poison is slow acting and causes blurred vision after one minute, unstable motor skills after and hour, and unconsciousness at an hour and a half. If left un checked it can kill a person in two hours. His ability to produce poison does not give him an immunity and in fact he is dying slowly from this power. Regular De-tox chemicals can clear his system but it takes a while and an actual anti-venom can be synthesized.
Bone Blades: In his forearms Aldo has foot long bone spikes which can be used to slash and stab. The bones are strong enough to withstand extreme amounts of force and punch through steel. Glands in the arms can coat each of his blades in his toxin making them even more deadly. The blades are positioned so they do not hinder his hands with gripping objects.
Enhanced reflexes: Aldo can move at speeds faster than the average man, allowing him to dodge most physical and projectile attacks. He can also quickly bend his body in directions that at the speeds he moves at would cause a man to fall over, and keep his balance. This also aids with his bladed combat making his movements swift and precise like a surgeon's blade.
Member Group: Neutral
Canon or not: Nope
Appearance: Aldo is slim at only 153lbs. and reasonably tall at 6'3, he has pale skin and blonde shoulder length hair. The whole right side of his face and body is burned leaving him disfigured. He has scars up his arms and legs all from either attempts on his life or self inflicted via experiments. His second most notable scar is a thin line across his throat caused by an assassin. His left eye is brown while his right is discolored a dark black. His tongue is longer than most people and can twist in strange angles. He's sharpened his nails slightly so they can be used to scratch people and deliver poison.
His Clothing consists of a leather zip up sleeveless shirt, a red fur lined hooded jacket, leather pants, leather gloves, and black boots. His belt has loops in it to hold his gas mask, chemical vials, and blood sampling kit. His mask is a customized Spec ops mask with the filter sticking towards the right side, viewports are tinted blue, and a red scorpion is painted on the forehead. The mask has LED lights around the view ports that make them glow blue. The mask also distorts his voice making it sound raspy and high pitched.
Personality
Overall Personality: Aldo is a complete psychopathic, megalomaniac with a hero complex. His obsession with the Gifted gene started out as a innocent curiosity. But after seeing all the bigotry towards Gifted his dream was corrupted. He believes Gifted are the next level of evolution and that Normals are blinded to this and if he can spread the gene they will. Even with his extreme intellect his derangement can make him seem nonsensical. A more disturbing aspect of his personality is his lust for genetic perfection and the horrible things he'll do to achieve it.
His research is his driving force and he'll do anything if he thinks it will help the Gifted grow stronger. He doesn't care if people die due to his experiments but justifies his actions by saying he is just doing what he needs to do to survive. Above all his vision is his key, he believes he will be the hero of a new age. Anyone who challenges his views is a threat and needs to be destroyed. While he is not one hundred percent violent he will use any means necessary to achieve his goals.
Aldo is so sure of his own superiority that he ignores his own insanity. His indifference of the suffering and pain he causes seems normal to him. He realizes that not everyone may survive his experiments but sees it as if he succeeds their sacrifices will not be in vain. In his mind he's the hero and anyone who questions him is a traitor to their kind. He can go on long, charismatic speeches about his vision. He can be quite charismatic when he wants to be and can easily sway the weak minded and foolish. His mental state tends to fluctuate at points he is eloquent and well spoken but at others he can be erratic, easy to anger, and nonsensical. The one thing that constantly bothers him is he cannot find the source of the Gifted's powers so he can use it to cure his disease.
Aldo suffers from severe sadomasochism, he loves inflicting and causing pain in others and feeling it inflicted on himself. He can be quite crude and perverse and seems to view any woman he see's as a target for his sick twisted fantasies.

History
Family Members/guardians: Father-Francesco Medici-43 Mother-Claudia Medici-45 Older-Brother-Vergil Medici-Deceased
History: Aldo was born in Venice, Italy and from a young age showed an aptitude for science at a young age. Like his brother he had powers and like his brother he was feared. People always were scared of the brothers knowing how dangerous they both were. One day Aldo came home and found the police at his door, his brother had been lynched. Aldo plowed into research on his condition to try and forget the pain but the more he read the more his delusions grew. One thing that sparked this was that his poison abilities which were just starting to appear were starting to kill off cells in his body.
Soon he ran away from home and started a pro-Gifted group called Del Piu Fuerte or The Fittest. They raided Government labs, covered the internet in campaigns to raise sympathy for the Gifted, and gathered more Gifted DNA samples. It was then Aldo came up with his plan, he tweaked together gene samples to make new mutagens and while the mutagens could give a Normal powers but after an hour they'd kill the user. But this gave Also a theory, that whatever gene he had was in all Gifted and if he could isolate it he could find a way to fix the defect in his powers and cure his disease.
The government caught on to him and soon mobilized a manhunt. Operations were crippled, members jailed, progress lost. But none of this mattered to Aldo because he only cared for his research. His hideout was eventually found and raided, Aldo was imprisoned but because of the promise his work showed he was allowed to continue his research. An explosion in his lab caused massive scarring on multiple parts of Aldo's body but even that didn't stop him from continuing. But he hit a stump, he could not continue his research without observing Gifted evolving in person. So he was immediately shuffled into the Ashford program.
