History:
Kevin Shepherd isn’t well known, to be speak truthfully barely anything is known of his past.
Kevin Shepherd is possibly twenty=five years of age and his parents are assumed deceased, Kevin Shepherd or “Kevin” is known but for one thing. Killing, Kevin possesses a special gift which allows him to absorb the gifts or “powers” of his victim. It is unknown as to how many or if he has actually killed, though a poorly constructed sketch of his face is in the wanted list of FBI.
There is also rumor that he is wanted by the secret organization “The Project” but this is not know to anyone.
Kevin’s reason for hunting those with special gifts can only be explained as greed, Kevin seems to want every and all powers possible. He doesn’t care who gets in his way and doesn’t mind killing the innocent, he often plays nice to those he thinks can lead him in the right direction.
Kevin plans to hunt everyone with power and will do so if not stopped, but this won’t be an easy goal to accomplish.

If he believes that someone can help him achieve his goal, Kevin will put on a nice guy act and try to become the person’s best friend. Kevin seems to have a knack for quickly putting together believable lies and controlling his expressions and emotional outlooks.
Kevin’s History unveiled.
I’m only adding this so that you can understand why he is hunting “gifted” people; in no way can you know this in character. Unless of course you pm me asking if you could create a character somehow linked to Kevin’s past, if you do such you will have to have a very impressive profile and history because Kevin is one of my favorite and most complicated characters. Again, this is only so that you can understand what kind of person he is and how he thinks and why he does what he does, no one knows this when in character.
If one was to dig deep into Kevin’s conscious they would learn many secrets in which could affect almost the entire world, they would also learn that Kevin is actually more dangerous then has ever shown.
Kevin Shepherd actually being his real name given to him at birth by his parents, but child hood isn’t of much concern. If he was to think of his child hood all he would remember is excelling in a few high school sports and fairly popular. As a kid his father, a rig worker for an oil company, would bring Kevin small gifts from the places he’d come from after getting off his job. Kevin developed a liking to puzzles at a very young age and so grew to like puzzles such as Rubik’s cubes and chess, though he never really played chess he was fairly good at it for a beginner.
Kevin’s childhood love for puzzles and filling the mysterious of just about anything could explain how Kevin could create such elaborate plans and strategies, but this skill wasn’t fully tapped until Kevin’s adulthood.
Kevin graduated from high school at sixteen with a college level IQ in math and calculus, he’d even had a couple of trophies for soccer but he was fairly average in all other aspects. Upon graduating from high school Kevin felt the urge to put his skill to work for his country as to say, so Kevin became a volunteer police officer.
After spending a few years as a volunteer police officer and working part time as a steel welder at an auto shop Kevin decided pursue farther into law enforcement further. Kevin became a full time police officer with no problem because of his already excellent reputation as a volunteer and retired from his welding job, at only twenty-one years of age Kevin was becoming an almost perfect role model for the great American way.
Kevin served as a officer for only a few short months and was already beginning to feel the need for more, so he began studying for the SWAT Team, Special Weapons And Tactics. He signed up for the test and without surprise he passed, Kevin began as a trainee and was to earn rank as he grew in skill.
It is no surprise with his dedication and hard working attitude that Kevin became a full field SWAT officer at only twenty-two, his job manning a four man team of Bomb sweepers and tactical body guards. Each having to have a degree of sniping skills as well as a wide knowledge of explosives, Kevin felt as if he had to keep ahead of his team by making frequent trips to the firing range and keeping with the explosives of the times.
Kevin had only been at the job for six months and was beginning to feel as if he couldn’t keep up, he felt as if he was a different person when he was surrounded by a group. Kevin didn’t know it but he was beginning to unlock his hidden potential, an ability which would change his entire life as well as personality.
Kevin was secretly contacted by an unknown agent, out of sheer curiosity Kevin met with the man and learn what he never thought possible. This agent claimed to be part of an organization tracking the development of the “gifted” he also claimed that Kevin was beginning to show signs of development, development of what Kevin was soon to learn.
Kevin was taken in by the organization after meeting and learning from a small group specializing in the development of the human brain, the theory being that the typical person only uses a small percentage of their brain even a Genius only unlocks less then ten percent of the brains full potential. There are areas of the brain which are said not even been used, this group convinced Kevin that this unused area of the brain allows people to unlock ability that no man ever thought possible.
A great theory and believable to Kevin, another theory explained to Kevin was that some average humans, typical every day persons, were unlocking this area of the brain subconsciously. In theory it would take hundred of years to tap into this area of the brain threw mental training, but the human body only last a said fraction of the time needed. This is why Kevin and those like him are said to be “special” and this is what was explained to Kevin, this was also explained as the reason this organization was studying these people.
It was also explained that some groups, with ability like Kevin’s, were to be studied unknowingly so as to not tamper with the natural surrounding which has been creating by them. Kevin believed every thing this group of agents told him, every last word, and from that he agreed to help this group using his gift. A gift which he later fully learned and was soon to master giving the surroundings, because of Kevin’s ability his would only further develop when around others like him. Thus the reason the group chose him, his career in law enforcement was more then a bonus.
Kevin worked with a variety of different agents, even a few who had ability similar to his, he found that this was finally the perfect job for him. His identity was practically erased by the organization leaving only a select few officers to believe he’d been killed in a car accident, he was given false identification if ever needed and was taught by one agent how to lie with out revealing any of the signals a skill which he adapted into giving off false signals to confuse investigators spies and trackers.
Kevin was good at his job and he often wondered what would happen when they did discover the one that has all the answers, he could lose a job which he was so good at. But if it was meant to be then it would last him for some time, so he believed. The time came when Kevin and his usual partner were sent to track down the where a bouts of a newly developing person.
The target was a man in his mid fifty’s, he was being ailed by intense head aches which began as minor migraines a few years before. He had no family but close coworkers, he was finally talked into going to the doctor by his boss who was also his best friend. Upon meeting the doctors there was no answers to why he had such terrible head aches, he was in great health considering his age and even ate right. Taking these into consideration his doctor talked him into trying an MRI test, upon taking the test the doctors was nearly sent into a state of shock while looking at the MRI results which showed the man was using more then forty percent of his brain and a little fact the man forgot to mention while meeting with the doctor, is that he was beginning to become increasingly more intelligent with out any kind of studying or change of habit. He could answer every medical question that the doctor asked because he simple “knew” the answer.
This was a top priority case which Kevin and his veteran partner were to investigate and get answers, after questioning the man’s doctor alone they learned the man was actually increasing the percentage of usage in his brain. The doctor explained that three tests were performed over a span of three weeks, the first showing a forty percent usage the second showing forty-eight percent and the last showing fifty-two percent on the man’s brain was active. This was an incredible discovery for Kevin and his partner, this man was showing more development then any case to date, the theory was that the man was developing a type of omniscience.
Upon arriving at the man’s house Kevin and his partner devised a plan, Kevin was to enter while his partner guards the exits, a near perfect plan since the man had but two exits in his quiet home. Kevin entered only to find that the man was sitting in a chair relaxing and waiting his arrival, it seemed as though the man was adapting to his newly formed ability.
Kevin sat and waited for only a moment before he began to ask questions, Kevin asked the usual obvious questions at first but it wasn’t until Kevin asked a real “thinker” or a question. “You know everything?” Kevin asked, the man only replied with a nod, “Even about our gifts?” Kevin asked only to be responded with a nod.
“Tell me.” Kevin asked, the man again responded with a nod and a smile. Then he finally spoke, he responded. The mind is the chest to all secrets to open that chest is to have the key, he explained to Kevin that his mind was linked to all other mind on the planet threw a connection created of brain waves. Every second of every day he is of one mind with every human being on the planet, he even suggested that he was uncovering the language of animals, even as he slept his mind was absorbing the knowledge that every human on the planet had. He was learning without study and knowing with knowledge as he explained, as his intelligence grew so did his capacity to think and perform mentally, using his own ability he tried to discovery the secret to his gift.
Which he explained that he had done, he also explained that he could tell Kevin how to fully develop his own ability. Kevin was more then eager to know, so Kevin asked with haste for the answer. Before Kevin could even finish his sentence the man explained, “You can learn for yourself, close your eyes and just think.” The man told Kevin.
Kevin sat in a chair across from the man and closed his eyes, they sat for a moment in silence then Kevin was suddenly struck with flashes of random bits of knowledge. An almost endless vast supply of information began flooding into Kevin’s mind, Kevin scream from pain that felt as if his mind was being pushed upon. While Kevin fell from his chair to the ground holding his head in pain his partner ran threw the door wielding a gun at the man, Kevin’s partner yelled for the man to stop hurting Kevin while the man tried to explain to Kevin to focus. The man was barely heard of the thousands of sounds and images going threw Kevin’s mind as he shouted for Kevin to focus on what he needed to know, Kevin’s partner began to panic thinking that Kevin would die he shot the wall to get attention focused on him. He ordered the man against the wall while Kevin lied on the ground trying to free himself from the state of shock, Kevin lifted to his feet and ran out the door trying to get away from the man and his power.
As Kevin ran from the home flashes of strange persons and names of abilities shot threw his mind, Kevin then fell to the ground as the house behind him exploded. Kevin turned his attention toward the house to see it engulfed in flames, it would later show that Kevin’s partner accidentally shot a gas line in the wall which caused a leak.
Kevin sat on the ground only meters away from the burning building, the pain was lifted leaving only a minor head ache and a state of confusion to Kevin. He was stuck in wonder as to what he had seen and heard in his own mind, and as he sat listening to the sirens in the background he then realized the question he’d thought of just before the reaction. Kevin realized that he’d asked for the Anomaly of beings, the one person who would surpass even those of his own ability. The person that would attain all of the abilities which could make that person perfect, and as he rose to his feet and began to walk he realized that the last image that flashed in his head was the answer. That person was himself, and those images were his goal, his goal for power.
And with this new goal in mind, Kevin became a rogue from the agency he once served and started his hunt to achieve his goal.
