Finding the lower level empty, we headed to the second floor and found an open space supported by two metal pillars. There were a half-dozen mercenaries with Coil, as well as a collection of people who looked like they had come from every walk of life. Teenagers, professionals, and two guys that might have been capes – one thin, short guy with brown skin and a tattoo around his mouth, depicting a mess of sharp teeth penetrating the skin of his cheeks and lips. The other was burlier, shirtless, and wore a rusty, old fashioned looking mechanical rigging around his hands, with a bear-trap jaw plate. The frame seemed set up to hold metal claws around his fingertips while allowing his hands the full range of motion. He had a spiked collar of much the same style.--> | Finding the lower level empty, we headed to the second floor and found an open space supported by two metal pillars.

Appearance
Barker is described as being an inch or two shorter than Skitter with his hair and beard cut short enough that there was more skin then hair showing. His eyes seem overly large for his face, with heavy lids and folds around them that made him look older. His costume consisted of a black sleeveless t-shirt, jeans, and tattooing around his mouth<ref name="15.1">Colony 15.1</ref>.
Abilities and Powers

In his battle against a Dragon suit, Barker used his power to create a concussive force that caused it to stumble.
He is resistant<ref name="playtest"/> to effects generated by his own powers, but not immune as repeated uses caused Barker's throught to get sore.
History
Background
Barker is Biter's partner, they showed up in Brockton Bay to fight the Endbringer that appeared there.
Barker was hired by Coil to assist Bitch, he grated under her leadership. He also ended up on the wrong side of Skitter when demonstrated his power at her request her.<ref name="15.1"/>
Post-Slaughterhouse Nine
He acquitted himself admirably against the Dragon suits. The nascent Sons of Bitch would effect a strategic retreat form the conflict.
Post-Timeskip
While Barker went to Earth Gimel with the Sons of Bitch, he did not stay long, he may have had issues with living off of Buffalo. The super-villain would go on to find less-than-steady employment as a henchman and lieutenant for various low-level villains before Gold Morning, being an abrasive asshole and doing himself no favors in the process.
Golden Morning
During Golden Morning, he was briefly a body on the side of the humanity, against his will as many were under Khepri. Against all odds and reason he survived, though he chose not to wear the yellow icon on his sleeve as many did.<ref>Comment by Wildbow on Reddit</ref>
