Strength Level: Primal possesses super human strength, which enables him to lift (press) 10 tons.

Known Quantum Powers: Primal can regenerate damaged or destroyed areas of his cellular structure at a rate far greater than that of even ordinary mutants. Primal also has a limited immunity to the fatigue poisons generated by bodily activity; hence he has greater endurance than any ordinary baseline. This increased stamina and muscle mass permit him to lift nearly a single metric ton with out breaking a sweat and leap great distances. Although his maximum distance isn’t known rumors speculate him pouncing on a grizzly bear from nearly one mile away after catching its scent at an equal distance.

He possesses a superhumanly acute sense of smell, comparable to that of certain animals. For example, he can track someone by smell just as a wolf can. His highly developed olfactory sense and memory allow him to detect and track a scent over eight hours old that he had not been exposed to for up to several months previously. Dilute, common odors of perspiration, perfumes, cigarettes, candies, and food are beacons to his senses.

Primal’s claws and teeth are strong enough to rend through substances as durable as concrete.

Abilities/Special Skills: Tracking, hunting, surviving.

Weapons Used: Claws and teeth. Primal is quite capable of using anything in his surroundings as a weapon to gain an advantage in a fight.

Personality: With his Feral nature many believe Primal is a psychopathic murderer. He’s not. He’s a hunter, a killer, and a good one. He views the world as an animal would. If you are hungry: eat. To eat you must hunt. He loves to hunt and is rarely found indoors preferring the great outdoors where plenty of room to run and stalk prey.

Primal does not hunt or feed off of human beings unless he has no other options but he has no qualms about doing so. Humans kill and eat animals less powerful than themselves, and Primal will do the same. He is not a cannibal, he is a carnivore. To be a cannibal he would have to be a human.

Socially Primal is quite fun to be around. He is a drinker and a partier and loves nothing more than just kickin’ back and doing nothing.

Personal Interests: Primal has only one desire: to be left alone. He doesn’t want to have to answer to anyone. The places he goes and the people he meets he feels he should do so on his own terms, not because some pecking order demands that he do so.

After leavening his hometown after is was overrun with infected, Primal has wandered the United States hunting and killing every step of the way. He currently has no aspirations beyond basic survival and looting.

Background: Prior to the virus Tyler Cole was a just a steelworker in a small mountain town in Idaho. An average guy trying to make a below average living. When the Z-Virus hit everything he had came to a crashing halt. His family and friends were all infected, and he and a few others were able to fight their way to safety and flee the small town.

It didn't take long for the survivors to realize that something about Tyler was changing. When he sprouted claws one night in his sleep they panicked and gunned him down without even bothering to wake him up.

He awoke a few nights later, hungry and dehydrated. That was Primal's first hunt, and he devoured the flesh of a mountain grizzly and drank nearly every drop of blood the beast had to offer. After the hunt, in the mornings that followed Primal learned to relax and gather his wits. He spent a day or two learning what it was he could do and what exactly he'd become. He came to the conclusion that he'd become something capable of surviving this apocalypse and it didn't bother him one bit, with his son and his wife both gone, he had nothing left to lose.
