Backstory: Shaw grew up on the outskirts of society, raised among career criminals who used him from a young age as a tool for their operations. He always obeyed out of fear, never out of loyalty. During a gang-led lab raid, he was exposed to mutagenic chemicals and permanently transformed into a bat demihuman. His new abilities quickly caught the attention of higher-tier supervillains who began using him as a low-level operative, treating him more like an expendable asset than a partner. He rarely questioned orders, afraid of punishment or abandonment. The media dubbed him “Shriek” due to his high-pitched echolocation bursts and terrified screams during operations, mistaking it for intimidation tactics. After getting captured during a failed heist, he spent months in prison with no rescue or support from his former associates. Feeling abandoned and increasingly unstable, he orchestrated a panicked escape. Now free, Shaw hides in the city with no direction, no allies, and no plan.

Notes: he never chose to be called “Shriek”, the media chose it and it stuck with him; has no known surname, having never met or remembered his parents; wears clothing scavenged or stolen since his escape, including remnants of prison attire; avoids daylight and hides in abandoned places; tends to sleep upside down when anxious; compulsively folds and unfolds his wings when nervous; suffers from light claustrophobia unless he chooses the small space himself.

Superpowers: Echolocation with high-frequency sonic pulses; enhanced hearing and night vision; functional flight with his wings; regeneration when consuming fresh blood; fangs can puncture skin easily; heightened agility and reflexes; ultrasonic shriek capable of disorienting targets within a short radius; capable of short bursts of wall-crawling or vertical cling; sensitive to high-volume audio or intense flashing light.
