_CYUTENG: _
Victor Stone, son of eminent scientist Dr. Silas Stone, was a high school football player
considering scholarship offers when he was caught up in Darksetal's initial attach on Earth
He was horribly burned and near death when his father used some of STAR. Labs advanced
technology to save his life. Now known by the designation Cyborg, Vietor és literally more
machine than human, made up of promethium shin grafts, metal ceramic alloys, and uploaded
nanites-mécroseopie molecular computers that can be controlled by conscious thought
! A healthy human athlete melded with a powerful, weaponized android body, Victor was also given the
| ability 40 communicate with any computer-based system, which, én this world, és no small advantage. The
STAR. Labs tech reformed nearly every one of his cells, creating perfect connectivity between the organic
nd inorganic. As traumatic as his near-death and transition mast have been, Cyborg is unquestionably «
echnical marvel-na seamless balence of alsparate parts, made even more powerful by the acquisition of am
otherworldly living computer Known as a Mother Box
AF this time, Cyborg has undergone a series of upgrades that deny easy scientific explanation. The nature
of these various advancements és $0 Lar beyond Earth technology that T can't really speculate on them. T
dont see any choice, however, considering Kis potential for being remotely controlled by villainous outside
iced, Watraaenh by the villainous entity Grid clearly demonstrated the need for 4s complete an
understanding as possible of how this eybernetic man functions

Ay when
Cyborgs greatest advantages
come from his Mother Bor: A
living computer that originated
on the planet New Genesis, the
Mother box és decades more advanced than any technology
on Earth. Having merged with Vietor’s Cyborg form almost
immediately after his reconstructive surgery, the Mother
Box allows Vietor to teleport via és built-in Boor
Tube--an extra-dimensional point-to-point travel
portal--and creates: siergy tn the cotralnaliaaal
his highly advanced physical systems, from sensory
input to cellular téssue formation, A fascinating
ptece of technology with a built-in consedousness, the.
Mother Bor és actuelly able to feel pain and can be
“killed” if damaged irreparably. The long-term eftects
of this meld between human ana device have yet to be
charted--another reason to Keep a careful watch, for Stone's
solely 05 well as our ownSITAR. Laboratories
Scientific and Technological Advanced Research
Cyborg Project
Early tests of the promethium graft have exceeded our original estimates by a large margin, As hoped, the subject has not only
merged seamlessly with the incredibly durable artificial metal, but has also shown litle to no need fora recovery period after the
inital procedure
The promethium almost instantancously replaced the damaged tissue inthe subject’ body, causing him a high degree of
transient pain for less than ninety seconds (his wounds would have been fatal, had we not proceeded with the experimental process)
The subjects vitals then stabilized, and the A-Maze Operating System initiated, delivering endorphins o his brain along with an
informational download
Witlthis cybernetic operating system originally set to auto-command, the subject was able to ease into his new abilities,
instinctively etivating defense systems when the need arose. While I would have liked to have thoroughly examined the subject as
soon as the process was complete, circumstances necessitated otherwise; no concrete data was established until neadly a week after
the fact. See related Promethium/Cyborg update log 001.3 through 0018 for later findings.

My first introduction to Cyborg happened shortly after his initial transformation. Dr. Silas Stone was
more interested in saving his sons ife than worrying about the Particulars of Cyborgs design, but even
having studied thélfound alien technology at STAR. Labs, the eybernetic reconfiguration of Victor's
body surpassed Silass highest expectations. Afraid that Victor's burned body would reject the shin
grafts and experimental bionies, Silas injected his son with untested nanites, microscope mechanisms
designed to conbrol,cellular processes, Victor's organic mind interfaced with the billions of nanites,
reforming his flesh and regenerating lost Hi

fe into new, upgraded forms. Most of his body appeared
ly his right eye and portions of his face and head still visibly human.
Experimental operating programs were uploaded info Victor's metrons, the nanites ereating a synaptic:

The nanites continge to tmprove and upgrade, therey giving Cyborg control over his phystaal

Nanite Upgrade
The functions of the nanites that resicle in both the organie-and the inorganie parks
BL Cyborg are bar more advanced and efficient than any nonotechnology currently
Ivadable fo your average Earth scientist. The first incarnation of Cyborg. ober the
Gili grat of alien fechnology to his eying Hssues, required him to be physiealy

the nanites took over cellulr function, they simultonecusly downloaded the’ chemtenl
makeup of wensons-grace promethium ana started to create hybrid cells These
hybrid nanites could have learned to minie human Hesue as easily as they could
promethium
The latest incarnation of Cyborg no longer requires the storage space he nee
needed to hold complicated eybernetic systems. Take the multiple capabilities of
his eybernetic eye, for example. Tt can become a telescope or a microscope; oF
provide X-ray and infrared night vision, The eye can be also used as a tracking,
and targeting system and can operate as a medical scanner, The space needed fa
house all of these Functions és far larger than the synthetic portion of Cyboraie

Weaknesses
As an original member of the Justice
League, Cyborg remains a loyal ally:
however, his potential for destruction,
physical or digital, cannot be ignored.
T sincerely Iihe Victor. He has a maturity and ethical strength far
beyond his years. But he has lost control of his synthetic self in the
past and there's no reason to believe i won't happen again
Unfortunately, Cyborg doesnt have many vulnerabilities. Considering he counts an EMP among hi
built-in arsenal, (b €an be assur
that he's Lully shielded from a similar attack. Since his network of
rranites can work indepen

There's also his power source to consider. We don't yet have the capability to successfully neutralize
eghorg's Mother Bor, @ problem in need of a quich solution. T've looked into a few virus programs
that may ab leash femporarily neutralize his nanite configuration, but so far there's been nothing that
promises a high probability of success. It may be Hime to "borrow" a note or
