P E R S O N A L I T Y

Like Michael King the man he had been cloned from is a man to hold grudges, but overtime eventually forgets and forgives. He is the type that follows his heart, and his gut feelings rather than his head despite the harsh trainings he receives from the Chimera Project. Friends and family and those he trust are the only ones he shows loyalty too, along with the government he works for and will do just about everything and anything to make them happy. Impentrable walls of emotion, womanizer, sarcasm, are just but a few things that he does to hide his true feelings, since he fears being hurt.

He is a very physical person - mostly, sexually - since he is quick to use his fists rather than words to solve a problem. Blackmail? He catches you doing something that you are not supposed to be doing, he will own your ass; pure and simple. He is also quick to judge on a lot of things, which tends to get him into a whole lot of trouble; from girls slapping him across the face to bad guys shooting bullets at him.

Michael Anderson is not afraid to kill.

H I S T O R Y

When Michael King was kicked out of his house, at twelve years old, by his stepfather whilst his mother did nothing to prevent it, he was forced to learn how to survive the streets. Over the years, he had been fortunate enough to meet a few kind people that were able to house him for a couple nights giving him temporary homes. On occasion, however, he had fallen prey to several of people that felt that in order to pay back for their hospitality that he needed to pleasure them – whether they were male or female. Due this action of early prostitution, Michael had found it to be an easy way to gain money that he had needed in order to drink and eat.

Being in the line of prostitution, he eventually fell into a world of drugs. There had been a local trafficker whom needed a delivery boy to deliver the goods. Since money was highly needed by Michael to live a somewhat descent life, he did the job. It wasn't until he witnessed the murder a young girl that was only a few years older than him, for failure to pay her dues. It was, because, of that one instant that Michael ran away from the state of New Jersey, and never looked back.

At the age of sixteen, and changed by his experiences, Michael decided to live a better life to the best of his abilities. No longer a child of prostitution or drugs, he worked odd jobs at places that were willing to give a kid his age – it ranged from working on docks, fishing boats, and restaurants that needed a delivery boy. On the way home to his little, run-down apartment, Michael had once again came across another violent scene that involved a woman. This time, however, she was a victim of a simple mugging. To give something back to society and to the people that had been kind to him – Michael helped her, and fought the man to the best of his abilities. Not wanting to take the chance of the woman or the boy pointing him out to the authorities, the mugger fled the scene.

Little did Michael know, was that the woman he had saved was the social elite, Diana Anderson; the woman who was also known to the vigilantes as Envoy.

Amazed by the boy's bravery, and having found out that he was without a home. She did the best thing she could think of, and that was adopting him as her own son. Not wanting him to be a victim of her co-workers possible enemies or her own, Diana had sent him off to a boarding school back in her hometown of Hartford, Connecticut. In exchange, for his gratitude, and not wanting to disappoint his new mother, Michael excelled in his studies and became your typical, All-American Golden Boy. It was at Hillside that Michael discovered and learned of archery, a sport that became his passion and helped keep him out of trouble.

When he graduated, and returned to New York City to live with Diana. She still felt that need to protect him, and what any loving mother would – ship him off to another school; this time, college. Now a grown man, and having the hunch that his adoptive mother was hiding something from him; Michael began to rebel to the point of getting kicked out of school. After being together for months, and watching her in silence, Michael was able to figure out who she was, and what it is that she did. Since he found the night life to be exciting, and a place where he could do some good, Michael trained himself to be a vigilante – even if it meant he had to don tights. With the codename ``Arrow`` given to him, by Envoy and a modified long bow, Michael now fights alongside his mother and Lynx to ensure the safety of innocents with New York City by any means possible.

It was not until Michael had willingly taken a chemically made serum that was to promote rapid healing for normal people that he began to unknowingly experience the side-effects: homicidal rage. In the beginning, he had thought that he was merely keeping up with the justice by taking care of the criminals until Diana pointed out that he was flat out killing people for no perfectly good reason other than that they were doing ``bad`` things. Once he had accepted what he had done, Michael felt that he needed to find himself again and, therefore, had moved to the City of Angels. It was there that he saw the death of Jackson Kennedy on the news and decided that he was needed back in New York City, due to the feeling he was getting in his gut like something bad was about to happen.

As he had felt, there was a massive invasion from unfriendly forces, the Geist that rained down on the Earth with the intention of exterminating the Aerophagytes - a race that lived secretly among man for centuries; and mankind was caught right in the middle. It was during the war of the worlds, that Michael King fell onto the list of people that were killed in action and into the arms of Colleen Underwood – the last person he had managed to save.

On the sixth of March of two thousand twenty-five, however that triggered everything. With the government's satellite feeds that detailed the gruesome death of Jackson Kennedy forced them to ensure that the next series of soldiers were to be made as perfect as possible; thusly, birthing the creation of the CP-8's series. What made this series the most unique was mainly for their individuality that allowed them to appear like your everyday human beings; and, Michael, was their first successful creation.

A B I L I T I E S & W E A P O N S

Michael Anderson is perhaps one of the finest archers ever known – with a wide-variety of trick arrows at his disposal – due to the extensive training he had received growing up. He claims to be able to shoot over thirty arrows per minute. He has shown the ability to shoot an arrow down the barrel of a gun, pierce a drop of water as it leaves a tap and shoot almost any part of the human body; although he aims only to wound and not kill when he shoots. He is also proficient in several forms of hand-to-hand combat. Even though, he is skilled to use much other weaponry, they are not his preferred weapon of choice.

He also possesses extraordinary physical strength, able to overpower a man three times his own weight, feline-like reflexes and speed, and with an acute sense of all five his senses, which, along with his training, would make it very hard for someone or something to catch him by surprise. However, like the rest of the CP-8's, Michael was born with a design flaw: the inability of the brain to create enough serotonin; a condition that leads to uncontrollable seizures, leaving him completely powerless. In order to suppress the flaw for periods of time, the CP8's are required to take tryptophan, or by drinking a glass of milk with their meal seeing as how the series has been known to become immune to the shots they had been given.
