Story:
It is quite obvious that there is something wrong with Peirce whenever you look at him. Some of his old colleges describe him as having a very unsettling “aura” around him.
Peirce was born outside of Dublin with a very overprotective mother and an overenthusiastic hunter for a father. Peirce was quite similar to his father when it came to interests, however something that made the different was Peirce’s taste in weapons. While his father preferred the use of a gun, Peirce found a bow a lot more interesting. The way it looked, the way it sounded when it fired, the way it killed. At the age of 15 Peirce father died to cancer and as a way of hiding his sorrow Peirce began with professional archery. However his mother later pulled him out of the sport once reports of someone hurting kids in Peirce’s age group with a bow and arrow. Little did she know that the person committing these crimes were Peirce himself.
Not long after Peirce found an interest in physics, more specifically in radiation and it’s effect on peoples health. After graduating in radio-biology Peirce began working in a university in U.S.A that studied the effects of radiation damage on humans. Most of the time Peirce spent his time alone and secluded from his other colleges. They began speculating that Peirce was making some sort of biological weapon and soon the police force was called in to investigate Peirce’s work. However, that was not what Peirce was working on. Instead Peirce was developing a vaccine that would make humans immune of radiation poisoning. However once the police tried to take away his work Peirce tried to stop them from taking his precious work and in the process managed to create what his colleges feared he was making. A bomb radiation bomb. Everyone in the building Peirce was working in were killed either from the blast of the bomb or by the radiation released from it. Except Peirce who managed to get out with only a damaged face.
Fearing he would go to prison for his action and that he would never be able to continue his work Peirce fled back to Ireland and became a mercenary together with his old trustworthy bow as a way of making a living and as a way funding his work. Once the incident in London occurred Peirce immediately flew to the UK so he hopefully could join with the terrorist group know as the jackal so they could help him restore the his old work.
Design:
Peirce is a white and tall man with orange hair and brown eyes. He wears a orange vest like the on in this picture and shorts. On his wrist Peirce wears his radiation tracker and in his belt hangs his quiver. While not present in this image Peirce also wears a bandanna over his face with a mouth with sharp teeth is a painted on to cover his damaged face.

Peirce’s personality is somewhat like Stoker. Even tho he looks really unsettling and menacing he still sounds happy, but he does not have the more gentlemanly side to him like stoker. Instead he talks like he is superior in intelligence then the rest of the people around him.
Quotes:
Introduction quote: “Names Perice. First class scientist and madman”
Special taunt nr 1: “Whistles to sound like a falling bomb Simulates sounds like bomb explodes”
Special taunt nr 2: “Thank you for helping me fund my latest project.”
Special taunt nr 3: “By the fact that theres the smell of radiation in the air, poisons gas everywhere and a 100 bodies lying around everywhere it’s quite clear that you have definitely failed this city.”
When getting a kill with melee weapon: “Making a small incision here… Oops.”
Launching Shrapnel arrow nr 1: “Watch out, shrapnel!”
Launching Shrapnel arrow nr 2: “This will sting… a lot!”
Launching Shrapnel arrow nr 3: “Side effects of radiation may include feeling like your body has been stung by a thousand bees, a lot of your skin falling off, and a sore throat.”
Equipping radiation tracker nr 1: “You can’t hide from science.”
Equipping radiation tracker nr 2: “Science to the rescue!”
Equipping radiation tracker nr 3: " This devise tracks the radiation level in the air and uses it to track your location. In other words, Science."
And thats the new and improved Peirce for ya. I hope you enjoyed and I would like to thank all previous readers for your help with balancing this merc and design flaws.
Hopefully you enjoy what I have created with your help and have a wonderful rest of the day
