Name: Arman Carlton Greythorn (His full name is known only by the Organisation)
Codename: Morphine
Age: 58
Gender: Male
Appearance: His appearance varies because he is a shapeshifter, and everyone who knew what he looked like before his powers emerged is now dead. His appearance changes everyday, and he will often wake up to find he's been sleep-shifting (I'll explain his current appearance everytime I post as him). He will often pose as an animal too though, usually a rat.
Personality: He has changed his identity so much that his real personality was lost years ago, he enjoys torturing people and is mentally unstable, meaning outsmarting him is one of the only ways to beat him in a fight. He despises normal humans, and will often kill them and let mutants live, unless the mutant is question has a pathetic power. He also has a great deal of respect for people with a lot of power or knowledge. Despite this, Morphine is completely bonkers.
History: Arman's history is known only by the Organisation - He was born in Ohio, Texas, to Tom and Kim Gretzel. He had two brothers named John and Harry, who were both older than him. Arman's parents were quite poor and he had a bad childhood, he didn't go to school at all, wheras his two brothers did, something he was always jealous about. When Arman was 16, Harry was 19 and John was 24 (John had left home by then) Arman discovered his shapeshifting powers, but it was limited to only being able to take on the appearance of other people. Arman left home at that time, because he had no reason to stay, and began perfecting his powers.
After 15 years Arman had finally reached the pinnacle of his powers, and set about starting a new life. He had his dreams set on being one of the most well known mutants in the world, but first he had to get rid of his disgusting human relatives. He first went to his old home, where he discovered that his father had committed suicide and also found out where his brothers lived. He then killed his mother and turned her corpse into a mosquito. He found Harry, who was a drug dealer in New York, transformed him into a cigarette, and gave it to a hobo. John was living in Las Vegas with a family, and Arman slughtered them all with machine gun arms, then turned them all into dust. Finally he transformed his brother into a sandwich and ate him. Because of the way in which they were killed, his family's deaths were never linked to him. And since Arman had also disappeared, everyone simply suspected he was dead. However, Morphine had achieved his full potential at this point, but he used his powers too much, and they started to 'burn out'. He completely lost the ability to manipulate living matter (besides his own) within a few years.
Arman spent the rest of his life under the name of Morphine, working for various groups, most notably HYDRA and Weapon X. He once posed as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. By the time he was 50 he had totally forgotten about his old life and identity, until he was found by the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent whose identity he had taken on a few years ago, Robert Gailman. Robert demonstrated his powers, and Morphine began to respect him, so when Robert asked Morphine to join the Organisation and help him destroy it, Morphine accepted. Strangely though, the Organisation knew almost everything about him, and started manipulating him (mentally). They showed Morphine many of the secret parts to the group, and Morphine started liking the way they did things. And then they made him a promise. They would do everything they could to help Morphine achieve his full potential again. This of course, was a lie, but Morphine believed it, and he's decided to stop contacting Robert, and devote himself to the Organisation.
Powers: Formerly: Omega Level Shapeshifter - Arman tapped into his full potential as a shapeshifter, he was able to change his form into any person or object in existence, and was even able to shift into creatures and objects that do not exist. Amazingly he could also use his shapeshifting on anyone or anything else, allowing him to shapeshift others as well as himself.
Currently: Morphine's abilities have decreased in power rapidly since he achieved his full potential. Now he can no longer shapeshift other objects or people at all, his shapeshifting is limited to himself, and even that part of his ability is not as powerful as it once was. One thing he does excel at however, is turning his body into a weapon, specifically, shifting his arms to turn them into guns or swords or a variety of other weapons.
He shapeshifts by transforming into a substance resembling radioactive waste, then reshaping himself using his mind. He does this so quickly now that the waste like substance is rarely seen.
Power related weaknesses: The constant shapeshifting of his entire body, including his brain, has damaged Morphine's mind, driving him slightly insane. Occasionally, upon shifting to a new form, he gains some form of mental disorder unintentionally. (This usually results in him temporarily gaining a split personality)
Fighting style: Unpredictable, he uses his shapeshifting in fights and often improvises, making his way of fighting unique.
