Summary
Early Life
Born in New York City, Aiden is the son of Dr. Silas Grayson - a researcher and entrepreneur. Despite his public origins, Aiden is a genetically engineered human. He was created through the genomic research done by his grandfather - Dr. Amadeus Grayson.
Technically the "first" of his triplet siblings - alongside his sister Phoebe and his brother Jonah; Aiden lived a relatively normal life for most of his early childhood. Aiden has a good relationship with his triplet siblings, as well as his older siblings - Kira and Jason (natural-borns by comparison).
Later on in his life, Aiden was forced to move to the West Coast with his family after an attack in NYC by Providence, the Meta-Human radical, and his organization. He would then spend the next decade of his life improving his own skills and knowledge base - before pursuing a degree in medicine.
Mosaic
Soon after he moved to Sanctuary City, Aiden began seeing reports of kidnappings involving Meta-Humans, usually from destitute backgrounds. In addition, reports of crime from Meta-Human groups like the Brigadiers began to gradually rise in frequency.
Deciding to make a difference in his own, "unconventional" way, Aiden began formulating a plan to help others.
With assistance from his older sister, Kira - an accomplished engineer and inventor; Aiden soon began development of the vehicles, tools and general equipment that he would need in order to realize his plan.
Soon afterwards, he became the vigilante Gradient.
Later, he changed his name to Mosaic; once his powers were fully manifested.
Current Activity
Aiden continues to run Archeon Incorporated within Sanctuary City. He also still watches over the city as Mosaic, attempting to stop both Meta-Human and Human crime as effectively as he can.
Powers
Power Matrix
As the Prime Universe incarnation of the Power IsoMatrix, Aiden has various abilities related to the notional framing of "Power" - the capacity to "do" something.
He can amplify his own abilities or reproduce the abilities of others that he encounters - seemingly without limit.
Aiden can also generate and exert both energy and force - to a similarly infinite degree.
Aiden's strength was great enough to even overwhelm his sister's, during their first real fight.[1]
Mosaic DNA
Like his father and siblings, Aiden has a unique blend of DNA known as Mosaic DNA - the result of his latent "Power" based abilities.
The structure of Mosaic DNA allows Aiden to instantaneously re-sequence his DNA, allowing him to permanently mimic Meta-Gene abilities.
Aiden's mimicked abilities are independent of each other - able to be passively used and stacked in simultaneous fashion.
Psionics
Due to his nature, Aiden has high levels of psionic power - making him adept at psionics.
A byproduct of this power, is Aiden's ability to replicate the memories and skills of those he encounters.
This ability was originally passive, unable to be controlled - until Aiden learned how to more properly maintain his psionic abilities.
His psionic abilities were further amplified after acquiring the Thaumaturgy Ring.
Dynamic Mimicry
The combination of Aiden's Power Matrix and his Mosaic DNA allows him to mimic the powers of beings who aren't Meta-Humans.
Examples include:
- Demi-Being Physiology
- Mimicked from Sun Wukong II - after fighting him in Sanctuary City.[2]
- Dimensional Conduit
- Mimicked from Julian Gray - after fighting him at the Seychelles Islands.[3]
- Divine Conduit
- Mimicked from Jack Blackburn - after encountering his reformed and inverted self in Sanctuary City.[4]
- Thulcandran | Chonarch Physiology
- Mimicked from Samael Thaumiel - after encountering him during his visit to the Archeon Complex as "Virgil".[1]
Equipment
Thaumaturgy Ring
After being severely weakened in his battle with Faust, Magister provided Aiden with a remedy in the form of the Thaumaturgy Ring.[5]
Thaumaturgy Armor
Mosaic's current armor is a fusion of both his original Nanotech Costume and the Magitek Armor of the Thaumaturgy Ring.
Skills
Magic
As a result of his training with his alternate counterpart, Aiden has enough magical power to become a Magician.
While nowhere near as proficient as a Sorcerer Supreme, Mosaic is still incredibly powerful, and capable of various magical feats through spell casting.
Combat Training
Partially due to his abilities, Aiden is a master of close quarters combat or CQC.
He also has knowledge of various forms of martial arts - due to his ability to travel the world and learn from various combat instructors.
Engineering Training
A result of his psionic knowledge absorption - Aiden has a robust amount of knowledge and skill involving the development and maintenance of various forms of machinery.
Aiden is an expert mechanic and engineer by experience - but not through formal training. He has worked to repair various forms of sophisticated electronics - from automatons to tanks.
Physician Training
Although not having completed residency fully - Aiden is an accomplished medical physician with an early M.D. in the field.
As such, Aiden has an extensive knowledge of biochemistry, genetics, immunology, virology, pathology, chemistry, human anatomy and human physiology.
He also has experience with surgery and differential diagnosis assessments of patients.
Should he ever need to treat a person of their complications - he can do that rather effectively.
Notes
- Aiden's favorite genre of music is Industrial Rock, much like his Sorcerer Supreme Counterpart.
- Aiden's favorite food is pizza, though generally without many toppings.
- He once found himself locked inside of a broom closet as a child, thanks to his sister Phoebe.
- Using a coat hanger, Aiden finessed an impromptu lock pick to escape - becoming the first instance of him learning to think outside of the box.
- Aiden has experience with multiple forms of martial arts combat.
- This is how Aiden overpowered Ryozo during their first encounter, before Ryozo's cousin ultimately stopped the Hoyokazi warrior.
- Aiden has an obvious attraction to Hiyuki Hoyokazi that everyone is aware of.
- This mirrors the dynamic that Aiden's father had with Hiyuki's mother - before they had a falling out due to personal differences.
- Aiden has, however, moved on past his initial attraction to Hiyuki.
- He instead got closer to another woman, whom he had repeatedly helped.
