"Hey, I know better than to get between my sister and her toy."

Marek Alistair Grayson is a Meta-Human living in San Francisco. He is the CEO of Grayson Industries. He is also the son of the Meta-Human scientist, Elias Grayson and the Siren known as Ophelia Grayson. He is also the vigilante known as Chimera.

Synopsis

Marek is the oldest of three children conceived by Elias Grayson and Ophelia Grayson in the early 90s. His siblings include his younger sister Miranda Grayson, and his younger brother Jakob Grayson.

After Elias's death, Marek and his siblings were adopted by William William and Theresa Whitemalkin. William Whitemalkin was a close friend of Elias's - going back to secondary school. While William struggled to be a father to his adopted children - he inherited control of Grayson Industries after Elias's death - due to being the majority shareholder, and his will not allowing Marek to gain control until his 18th birthday.

By the time of Marek's 18th, birthday, he and Miranda put their plan in action to put William behind bars. After being put on trial and exposed for his crimes - William was then sent to prison with a life sentence, for the magnitude of the crimes that he committed.

Soon afterwards, Marek decided to use his powers to become a vigilante - Chimera.

Powers & Abilities

Chimera DNA

Similarly to his cousins, Marek has a unique form of Meta-Human DNA which operates on a genomic level to sequence DNA - similar to Mosaic DNA.

However, unlike Mosaic DNA, Chimera DNA is not spontaneously mutable. Instead, Chimera DNA requires active catalysts.

Instead of re-sequencing itself in order to mimic different Meta-Gene sequences, Chimera DNA involves the rapid absorption and direct integration of genetic information into the genom.

Power Replication

Thanks to his Chimera DNA, Marek is able to replicate the abilities of any Meta-Human that he physically touches.

Intuitive Aptitude

An entirely separate ability, inherent to Marek's direct family. Like his siblings and his father, Marek has the unique psionic ability to instantaneously and perfectly understand any mechanism or system that he observes.

Items & Equipment

Dimensional Gear

Marek is genetically bonded to one of the two Dimensional Gears created by Mechanicus - the founder of Thulcandra. The Dimensional Gear is one of the most sophisticated pieces of technology ever created.

Marek has ownership of the "Sirius" or "S" Dimensional Gear.

The Charon

A large, technologically advanced superstructure - similar in appearance to a futuristic airship.

Notes

  • Marek is currently dating Jenny Dawkins - though he's not exactly close with her sister, nor the rest of her family.
    • He has never actually met them - reinforcing his apathy towards them.
  • He has a rather amicable relationship with his cousin - Aiden.
  • Unlike Miranda, Marek is not a Siren - nor is their younger brother, Jakob. Although both he and Jakob do carry the genetic Siren Imprint.
  • Marek has a very overprotective demeanor towards his younger sister Miranda and his younger brother Jakob.
  • While his Intuitive Aptitude is difficult to control, Marek has the greatest control over the ability in his family due to his years of active engineering work.
  • Marek has a PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. He also has a PhD in Mathematics, like his cousin Jonah.
  • Marek genuinely believes that Humans and Meta-Humans can co-exist, and is determined to do whatever he can to ensure that becomes a reality.
  • Marek's favorite food is hamburgers - like his cousin Aiden.
  • Marek's favorite color is, ironically enough, red - despite his blue armor as Chimera.
  • He wears sunglasses to give himself a casual demeanor - contributing to his personality as a laid back and wealthy CEO.
    • This contrasts with his real personality as Chimera - where he's hellbent on achieving his goals by any means necessary.
  • Marek's favorite instrument is the Cello.
  • Marek's name comes from the Roman God of War - Mars.
    • Coincidentally, Mars is his favorite planet due to the Iron (III) Oxide reactions that turned the surface of the planet red - as red is his favorite color.
  • Marek's favorite genre of music is Industrial Rock, just like his cousin Aiden.
  • Although weaker than his cousin, currently - Marek is incredibly proud of Aiden's power development, taking pride in his increased strength.
  • Marek is a very good driver, and is an avid Formula One fan.
