Personality[edit]

Knew his work and had a highly professional attitude.

Reputation[edit]

Was also known to kill and maim his targets. Was called a monster.<ref name="25.3 e7" />

Abilities and Powers

A professional mercenary with a grab-bag of powers that include acute short-range clairvoyance, short-burst superspeed and 'phantom hands' that can reach into people's bodies to do horrible internal damage to organs and/or nerves.<ref name="25.3 e7">Watch was a package deal like Grace or Circus. A lot of powers, flexible. His specific powers weren’t on record, but it was fairly well known that he was capable of short bursts of intense, short-ranged clairvoyance. He could see people’s biology, ignore the issues of light, darkness or intervening objects, and he had a limited super speed coupled with what had been dubbed ‘phantom hands’. The ability to reach through people like Shadow Stalker might, targeting particular aspects of people’s body to shred arteries or tear through nerves with his fingers and fingernails.

He was a monster who left his victims dead if they were lucky, quadriplegic if they weren’t. Maybe that was ableist, but I didn’t fancy being left to rely on the care of others for the rest of my natural life, suffering what was, by all accounts, an indescribably painful case of phantom limb. - Excerpt from Scarab 25.3</ref>

History[edit]

Background[edit]

Was part of a group trigger that gave him a variety of powers.<ref name="25.3"> - Excerpt from Scarab 25.3</ref>

Post-Echidna[edit]

Was hired by Topsy as extra protection. He got on the bad side of Weaver, and his abilities proved not to be a match for her.

 Watch noticing and taking out Weaver's bugs:

 With a systematic, accurate and patient series of movements, Watch began catching and killing every single one of my bugs. Slowly but surely, I was being rendered blind and deaf. It would make tracking a great deal harder.

 “Could fight,” Watch said. “…ther plan. Let me kill these last few, then I’ll …”
 Over the ensuing four or five seconds, he killed the bugs I’d planted on him despite my best effort to retreat them to inconvenient and inaccessible areas.
