Sirquit Boarde

Sirquit Boarde (Pronounced like "circuit board") was your average nerdy college student. Always ate healthy, was never late for his lectures, and was majoring in computer programming. His real name is James Skelter, but earned the nickname "Sirquit Boarde" because of his interest in computers, and his speech impediments.

It was a normal Saturday evening. While walking in the park, James noticed something sticking out of the trash. An old computer; a dinosaur, but still in one piece. He carefully brought it to his dorm, and plugged it in. The computer whirred to life, but quickly shut off. After opening the back of the computer, he found it was (as expected) very dusty. Using a pile Q-Tips, he quickly cleaned it, until its inside was like new.

The following day, a notice was sent around campus, about a lost computer, supposedly stolen. James (being one to do the right thing) returned the computer to the owner. Upon arriving at the computer lab with the computer, a gun was shoved in his face. "W-w-what's g-g-g-going o-on" James said, stuttering like a man driving on a washboard. The man put a cloth on James' face, attempting to chloroform him, but failed, for as soon as James began to sag, he dropped the computer on the big man's feet. The computer thudded to the floor, undamaged. Howling in pain, the man dropped the floor. "Not that tough, eh?" James thought to himself. The man jumped off the floor so surprisingly fast, James had no time to do anything. The man tackled James, and reached for his knife. He slashed James many times, all over his body. The man took the computer, and ran away.

Not long after he was gone, James' teacher, Dr. Reese, walked in, finding James, nearly dead, in the hall. Dr. Reese thought to himself, "He is in a bad condition, but not beyond fixing". Somehow, with enough blood in his body as a mouse, he survived long enough for Dr. Reese to fix him. He was fitted with mechanical parts, to replace his ruined organs. He is not truly human anymore, except for his brain, which was undamaged.

Today, he seeks the man who did this to him, and yearns to take down any other evildoers who get in his way.
