==History== ===Background=== Trainwreck is a [[Case 53]] - an amnesiac with physical alterations as well as powers, who woke up in a strange city with no memories. In this warped Tinker's case he would settle in the [[Trainyard]]s, where he eked out a living as a homeless supervillain,<ref name="Cast1">'''Trainwreck''' – An unwashed, greasy man who wears a crude, steam powered suit. Essentially a homeless solo supervillain, he is initially based in Brockton Bay’s Trainyards. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/ Cast (spoiler free)]</ref> trying to build a non-existent reputation.<ref name ="6.7 e2"/> At some point he was recruited by Coil to act as a mole within the merchants.<ref name="Cast2">'''Trainwreck (Deceased)''' – Few details have been provided, but Trainwreck has a mechanized suit or mechanized body with enhanced strength. Was working undercover in the Merchants on Coil’s behalf before being killed by the Nine. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/cast/ Cast Page (In Depth)]</ref> ===Story Start=== After the [[Undersiders]] led [[Armsmaster]] and [[Dauntless]] into a garage, [[Trickster]] teleported Armsmaster to Trainwreck. Trainwreck grabbed Armsmaster and slammed him against the hood of a car. Armsmaster managed to fight his way free where he fought against Trainwreck and Genesis until Trickster swapped out his Halberd for a car bumper. Trainwreck grabbed Armsmaster and started beating him against the car.<ref name ="6.7 e1">A steel giant with massive hands and a spout on its back that was spewing volumes of gray-black smoke had one hand closed around Armsmaster. Repeatedly, methodically, it slammed Armsmaster against the hood of a car.<br/>[...]<br/>Armsmaster fought his way out from the giant metal hand, but found himself dealing with not just the machine, but a creature from the black lagoon, replete with crustacean armor and octopus tentacles in the place of arms and a face. He managed to fend them off for a few brief moments, until he swung his weapon at the octopus creature and wound up with a car bumper in the place of the Halberd. He didn’t have a grip on the bumper as it materialized, so he fumbled and dropped it. Before he could recover from his surprise or his lack of a weapon, he found himself caught in the mechanical hand. The steam powered giant resumed his methodical thrashing of Armsmaster against the now-battered car, with the octopus-crab man standing patiently by. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/01/03/tangle-6-7/ Excerpt] from [[Tangle 6.7]]</ref> Trainwreck then tossed a bloody and beaten Armsmaster next to Dauntless. He then examined his fellow tinker's Halberd before crushing it and dumping the remains over the fallen heroes,<ref name ="6.7 e2">I could see the machine-guy’s face, a heavy cheeked caucasian with acne-scarred cheeks and long hair pulled back into a greasy ponytail, the upper half of his face covered in a metal mask and goggles, and now I could place him. He was Trainwreck, a fairly thuggish villain that hadn’t made much of a name for himself. I couldn’t say whether that was a suit or actually his body. For all I knew, he was some sort of coal-driven cyborg, or an unfortunate individual that’d been transformed by his powers much in the same way Newter and Gregor had.<br/><br/>And of course, that left the odd one out, the sea-creature, who could only be Genesis, from the Travelers.<br/><br/>Trainwreck dumped a beaten and bloodied Armsmaster to the ground, beside Dauntless. He took a second to examine the Halberd, which he held in his other hand, and then snapped it in his hands and squeezed the remains in his metal fist. He dumped the resulting debris over the unconscious heroes. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/01/03/tangle-6-7/ Excerpt] from [[Tangle 6.7]]</ref> with nearly a chuff. ===Post-[[Battle against Leviathan|Leviathan]]=== [[Taylor]] and [[Lisa]] were on a mission of mercy that took them to the Merchants festival of blood, where Trainwreck was part of the festivities.<ref name ="11.5">[[Infestation 11.5]]</ref> When [[Faultline's Crew]] staged an ambush to steal valuables from the merchants Trainwreck was held at bay by a new [[Shamrock|addition to the Crew]].<ref name ="11.6">[[Infestation 11.6]]</ref> Taylor enlisted Trainwreck's help in cracking through barriers created by Labyrinth of the attacking Crew. He did this quickly after some griping and returned to fighting members of Faultline's Crew.<ref name ="11.7">[[Infestation 11.7]]</ref> Later attended the [[Truce]] meeting at Crater lake, where the local capes decided what to do about [[The Nine]].<ref name ="12.2">The hull of their boat scraped against the edge of the building, nearly running over the boat that Grue and Bitch had come in on. All of the lights shut off, and the Merchants descended onto the roof. Skidmark, Squealer, Mush, Scrub, Trainwreck, the telekinetic whirlwind lady with the long hair and one other. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/06/30/plague-12-2/ Excerpt] from [[Plague 12.2]]</ref> He was killed alongside the other [[Merchants]] by the [[Slaughterhouse Nine]],<ref name="Cast2"/> dying at [[Shatterbird]]'s hands.<ref name ="I12">Shatterbird stepped back from the ruined husk of a massive suit of steaming armor and started flying their way, accompanied by a cloud of bloody glass shards. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/07/24/interlude-12/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 12]]</ref> This wound up complicating Coil's later plans.<ref name ="16.10">I needed a heavy metal suit that could carry a package, and Trainwreck died at an inconvenient time. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/12/25/monarch-16-10/ Excerpt] from [[Monarch 16.10]]</ref><!-- as a pawn for coil Trainwreck could've been slotted in to any of these operations. For example if the underside of us needed a new heavy hitter, or if he was no longer needed that his old position. -->
