Complications: Motivation ~Greed: Doctor Breakdown is always trying to improve his armor but he needs money to do it.
Temper: Doctor Breakdown can become enraged if someone points out the failures in his former career.
Background: Simon Ganz was a scientist, not one of those child prodigies or near super-geniuses or anything like that, just a man skilled in his trade (one that happened to be the dealing with technologies most people couldn’t understand, let alone operate) that was happy with his job at Gordon Technologies working on a portable teleportation device.
Ganz had spent several years working on the project and was the only original member left, the others had either taken other job offers or quit after so much time, determined to see the project through to the end even if it took the rest of his career. What he didn’t realize is that the owner of the company, Jeffery Gordon, was just a cover for the Jonathan Grant who wanted this project to produce some kind of results. So at end of quarter review Ganz was demonstrating the advancements made to that point: that the device was small enough to be hand held and could break matter down. Reconstructing it was another matter however but Ganz assured his employer it would only take another year at most.
Which was something that ‘Gordon’ wasn’t interesting in hearing at that point.
By the end of the following day Ganz’s project was stopped, his device sent to another division of the company and he was assigned to a new project. Angered by the short-sightedness of Gordon, Ganz hacked the company computer system and tracked down his teleporting device only to discover that it was now the primary weapon on a assault vehicle being built at a separate company facility. This was the final straw for Ganz, seeing his creation perverted in such a manner and he stole not only his non-working teleporter but a suit of powered armor that manipulated gravitonic energies as well.
Three weeks later Doctor Breakdown made his first public appearance at Gordon Technologies mother labs, his portable teleporter miniaturized even more at this point and built in as part of the stolen armor, and set to laying waste to those who had perverted his work without a moment’s hesitation. By the time authorities had arrived most of the building had been collapsed inward thanks to Doctor Breakdown disintegrating most of the buildings support structure.
When the dust eventually settled Doctor Breakdown had gotten away, almost two dozen police officers had been hurt, hundreds of employees of Gordon Technologies had been injured and several dozen killed and the mother lab was completely razed to the ground. From there on Doctor Breakdown became a wanted criminal and he launched several attempts at destruction of various people and places due to perceived slights or wrong-doings, improving and refining his armor and weapons the entire time.
When Binder learned of Doctor Breakdown he knew that he could get the man to join his fledgling group of super criminals and sure enough Binder’s offering of a safe environment to work in as well as the chance to work on cutting edge technologies along with allies that would work to keep him out of jail was enough for Ganz to agree to join the Sinister Syndicate.
