I posted this on another topic but thought it would be read more if I posted it here.
Lord Raymond Wilkins was a member of the British Royal Family as well as being a high-ranking military official. One afternoon Lord Raymond was invited to a demonstration of new technology by Crey Industries. Not suspecting anything, Lord Raymond agreed to come to the demo as long as a deal could be made for military use of the technology. About half-way through the demo a "malfunction" occurred and a massive explosion killed all present, including several ranking officers in the military. Lord Raymond was assumed dead after not being found during the hours of rubble rummaging that ensued. But much to the surprise of the Royal Family, Lord Raymond appeared at Buckingham Palace later that night. The family was horrified at how Lord Raymond had been marred by the explosion. The explosion had had bizarre effects including shrinking him from his once proud 6 ft 7 inch stature to a miniscule 4 ft and also burning his face very badly. Other changes including giving the power to command the Earth beneath his feet as well as giving great strength and the power to fly. The Royal Family feared that if this news were to go public there family's history would go to shambles and instead chose to banish Lord Raymond from ever returning to England under the name Lord Raymond Wilkins. Raymond, who was too proud of his heritage, refused to live under another name and fled to America still under his true name, and wearing a mask to hide his horribly burnt face. Lord Raymond decided then that clearly this malfunction was intentional, seeing as how there were so many influential people present, and began his search for those who were responsible. At the same time he also felt that by becoming a hero in America he would be welcomed home by his family again. This search led him to Paragon City, City of Heroes, and home to Crey Industries. Lord Raymond has to fight through many trials to get to the point where he would have access to Crey Industries and all of his victories soon gained him the title The Courageous Lord Raymond. The Courageous Lord Raymond helped in the defeat of Dr. Vahzilok on several occasions as well as defeating all other villain groups that could have possibly had something to do with the "accident."
