Powers: Type III Regenerative Healing Factor, which allow for minor wounds to heal almost instantaneously and more severe wounds to heal over time; formerly, regenerated cells would be identical to his own, and minimal scarring would occur. However, now when severe wounds heal, discoloration will occur and the DNA of the new cells will match that of his blood.

Mutagenic Blood, which upon sustained contact (exceeding 10 minutes) or repeated contact (over 20 times in the same general area) will cause any organic material to undergo genetic disintegration and reassembly, where the DNA of the affected areas of the organism will be identical to the blood’s, despite maintaining the organism’s initial appearance. If desired, however, the affected organic material can be induced to rupture and bleed profusely, thereby spreading the mutagenic DNA further, thereby being a limited form of Wound Inducement. His blood does not have the same DNA as the rest of his body, and this DNA allows for Pain Suppression and effectively causes Contaminant Immunity for all forms of bacterial infections and organic-based poisons.

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Backstory: Winslow grew up as the only child of an extremely wealthy family in the stiflingly luxurious suburbs around Silicon Valley. His father is a abstract painter, and his mother is the co-founder of a massive tech company. They struggled to be good parents, and often tended to overdo their efforts for their son’s affection, spoiling him with anything he could ever want. Much to their dismay, Winslow had little interest in the business of tech nor the abstractions of modern art, and instead, since childhood, cultivated a deep and unsettling interest in the biology of death.

When the question of college came around, Winslow attended Harvard University, desperate to get out of the West Coast where he lived his entire life. He double majored in Art History and Biology. His regenerative healing powers manifested during his time at Harvard as a result of the severe stress he was under, but Winslow was fortunate enough to have never been severely injured for the power to be fully discovered.

After completing his undergraduate education, he applied and was admitted to Columbia University’s MD-PhD program three years ago. He landed a research internship on cell regeneration at Avalon Pharmaceuticals, where he caught the attention of Dr. Ezekiel Daubney after a freak accident in the research lab somehow didn’t harm him, let alone kill him. Convinced into volunteering for deeper research into the healing factor he possessed, Winslow found himself gradually roped into the darker spheres of Avalon Pharmaceuticals, becoming a research subject rather than what he had originally signed up for. Officially counted to have dropped out of his MD-PhD program, Winslow gradually withdrew from his previous life.

His mutagenic blood is a result of Daubney’s experiments and is regarded as Daubney’s magnum opus. Since Halloween 2016, Winslow has been accompanying Daubney in his evasion of authorities to continue experimenting with the potential of his newfound ability. He is currently considered missing.

Some fun facts:

Winslow only applied to one college, that being Harvard. He really stressed out his college counselors. He skipped second grade.
He is prone to taking things apart absentmindedly and fidgeting with objects just to occupy his hands.
Winslow used to have a formidable collection of bowties. He is currently cultivating a new one.
Winslow hates abstract and modern art, preferring the intensified realism of the Renaissance artists.
