He is exceedingly large but not fat, he has a huge presence in a room.

Abilities and Powers

Upperhand can copy the general nature of powers within his vicinity that have any form of 'output',<ref name="SB1">Discussion with Wildbow archived on space battles</ref> and his ability to create powerful hypergravity effects emulates that same output.<ref name="list">Wildbow's Parahuman List</ref> This allowed him to easily pulverize targets. If he was up against a blaster who shoot lightning balls, Upperhand could throw spheres that applied his hypergravity effect at the blaster and would likely win.

If the output of a copied power is not usable for Upperhand, there may still be "flaky side benefits."<ref name="SB1" />

History

Background

Trigger event likely involving other parahumans. Possibly a group trigger.<ref name=PRT84e1>Don Fraser

• Finance Director of Estrella Co.
• 32. One brother, MIA.
• Masters in Accounting.
• No hints on power or trigger.
• I put in a ticket for Dragon's data cross-check and retrieval system. System, however, turned up immediate results rather than three day turnaround, as Don Fraser is a frequently submitted ticket. Strong parallels between Don Fraser's appearance in cities and parahuman fatalities. Crushed bodies, mashed to hamburger, dental records impossible to retrieve. Powers unknown. Phrase 'Upper Hand' turns up several times. Parahuman name? - Department Sixty Four, PRT Quest thread ii p84</ref>

Worked as a hitman for the Elite before being recruited into Esterella.<ref name="PRT18"> - Department Sixty Four, PRT Quest thread iii p18</ref>

Post-Echidna

Was part of the Elite cell that was making a bid for control of the criminal underworld of Anchorage.
