"I didn't choose to have these powers, but I can choose what I do with them now. And, Sarah, I choose to be better!"

-Roy Reilly, swearing on his sister's grave


Governments have pursued the supersoldier since the notion of superpowers first became public knowledge. The work conducted by NakanoCorp was no different, though their execution differed from most. In the interest of cultivating the ideal human, their first attempts at genetic modification were in animals of various species, splicing desirable traits into genetically modified super-variants. The beetle B-862 was no different. By some quirk of fate, the beetle escaped one day and managed to bite a visiting Roy Reilly, granting him an array of beetle themed superpowers. At first, he wanted nothing to do with his powers. It was only when his sister died in an easily avoidable tragedy that he knew his destiny. He donned the mask and became... Beetle-Man!

TRIVIA

Beetle-Man started life, and I suppose continues life, as an homage or expy of Spider-Man. He was a tabletop character from a long running Cortex Dramatic (A game designed to emulate CW drama, like Smallville) campaign and even made a few appearances in Masks: A New Generation (He was the Janus playbook, naturally). His backstory is mostly unchanged, though I'm still translating some setting elements over. Paragon is quite different from his original Empire City.
