Origin Story: Shay disappeared in the year 3994 from the United Republic territory, so not much is found on his origins. It is generally believed that he grew up in the Metro Sphere around Alpha Centuari. He had a normal life for the 40th Century, exploring virtual reality and space when he was a bit older. After that, the details of his life are completely unknown. Perhaps his disappearance had to do with the alien invasion of the Alpha Cenuari Metro Sphere, which led to the abduction of several United Republic citizens. There, Shay would've presumably been bought into space crime by pirates. All that is known for sure is that, today, Shay is the most feared man in the galaxy.

Equipment/Skills
-Power Armor: Shay's power armor is something he developed himself. It is highly versatile and is capable of adaptively replicating any power or trait necessary to survive a situation. In addition, it allows Shay to wirelessly connect with virtual reality and any nearby computers. It can also adjust its own density, allowing it to take different amounts of force depending on whats hitting it. The gauntlets have quark-gluon cannons, which fire super-hot beams that can melt atoms. The targeting system of the armor allows Shay to shoot it in either a large radius or a microscopic radius like the molecular or atomic level. The helmet can connect with his brain, allowing him to seamlessly teleport with a simple thought, or automatically teleport when the suit senses danger.

-Beamswords and Blades: Sheathed in Shay's armor are beamswords capable of cutting through any material. They're made out of condensed energy, and he can adjust the sharpness of the blade via changing the frequency.

-Gadgets: Shay has numerous gadgets, all developed by him, that he can use in neumerous situations. He has gadgets that allow him to wirelessly hack even the most advanced A.I., gadgets that allow him to shut off his opponent's powers, and many more.

-Combat Master: Shay is master of all forms of combat, weapons, and tactical analysis. He can quickly adapt to his opponent's method of fighting and find weaknesses in his opponent at the same time. He also predict his opponent's movements and copy them via adoptive muscle memory. His peak human condition also makes it easy to overpower enemies.

-Indomitable Will: Due to Shay's complete control of his brain and, by extension, his mind, he is impossible to mentally influence, telepathically manipulate, or brainwash. No matter what, Shay does exactly what he wants, and absolutely nothing can stop him from doing just that.

-Supernatural Intellect: Perhaps his most dangerous ability, Shay is a super-genius even by the standards of the United Republic. He has outsmarted and conned A.I., powerful alien emperors, and even cosmic entities. His intelligence and cunning make him the most dangerous foe regardless of how powerful his opponent is. Shay finds weakness in his opponent quickly always. He doesn't even necessarily have to fight; his speaking skills and powers of persuasion and manipulation have been responsible for the fall of entire empires. Shay has mastered all sciences discovered by humanity, and highly adept at those that hadn't been discovered. With his intellect and his immense skill and strength, Shay has become one of the most formidable people in the galaxy.
