| Arnuad de Thiel. The man behind Darien's pain. Arnaud's diabolical plan to add a glitch to the Quicksilver gland, so that the user would be indentured to him for counter agent went awry. But that did not stop Arnaud. He has dedicated his time since the botched terrorist attack on the compound, where the quicksilver project was being held, to first gaining of Dariens trust therefore, the gland, then searching for Kevin Fawkes' missing information on the gland so as to build one of his own. During this time, he interfered in Darien's life in the hope that he knew where the notes were. After piecing together enough information about the gland to build a crude replica of Darien's, Arnaud had the new gland implanted into his own head. Because he did not have all the information on the gland, his version, instead of emmitting a substance that bent light, reflected light, thus causing Arnuad to glow when covered in quicksilver. In order to see just how Dariens gland was wired, Arnaud gave Darien teh counter agent for stage five Quicksilver Madness in exchange for the "use" of his head under a MRI scan. This seemed like a fair trade except like any good villian, Arnaud tried to double-cross Darien, then escaped. But Arnuad did not realize until it was too late that there was more missing from his gland than just the connecting points. Last seen/unseen Arnaud was permanently invisible, like Simon Cole, and once again searching for a way to steal the Agency's files on Darien's gland. |
