Crucible:Speed Demon

Real Name: Dante Cole

Background: Dante Cole was a street racer and adrenaline junkie who lived for speed. During an illegal race, he crashed into a secret government transport carrying an experimental energy core. The explosion should have killed him, but instead, it fused with his body, granting him superhuman speed. Driven mad by the constant rush of energy coursing through him, Dante became Speed Demon, using his powers to rob, destroy, and outpace anyone who dared to stop him. To Dante, the world is his racetrack, and he thrives on chaos, declaring, “If you can’t keep up, you’re already dead!”

He was later recruited by the terrorist group HAVOC.

Powers: Speed Demon can move at supersonic speeds, and can phase through solid objects.

Skills: Dante Cole was a very skilled driver, but he doesn't do that much anymore.
