Physical Description: Riley MacCreedy is a thin man in a bloodstained lab coat, but that’s not the first thing people notice. What people usually notice first is the smile tearing across his face that he never, ever drops (because he’s physically incapable). That or the bladed instruments he carries.
Personality: When Riley operated as Grimace he was completely insane, trying to convert the world into “brothers and sisters” with similar grins on their faces and willing to stop at nothing. Now he’s more concerned with money and his own survival than anything.
History: Formerly operating as the terrorist known as Grimace, Riley MacCreedy was one of the most feared mortals in the known world. His operation was dismantled by the White Platoon and G.U.N. and he was frozen solid. Recently, though, he’s thawed out, and the ice pulled away most of the Grimace Gas that was driving Riley insane. He seeks redemption (of a sort), but can he ever achieve it?
*Riley worked for Dr. Y several years ago in an early iteration of the White Platoon. After a disastrous mission, he decided he wasn’t getting paid enough and turned to supervillain mercenary work. When that didn’t work out he turned to drugs, getting mixed up with horrible alien monstrosities and becoming the terrorist known as Grimace. Now that he’s been unfrozen and the Grimace Gas in his body has released its hold on his mind, he’s got plenty of money to spare…*
Equipment: Riley uses any equipment he can scavenge up, but mainly uses medical tools, whips, and a chainsaw. Many people remember the chainsaw because that’s what he used as Grimace. It’s theoretically possible that Riley could make more batches of Grimace Gas, modified laughing gas that drives whoever breathes it in insane and plants a permanent smile on their face. (Thankfully, the antidote recipe was released to the public)
Abilities: Due to the high amounts of Grimace Gas pumped through his body, Riley has an incredible resistance to pain. He’s also a brilliant chemist, but given his poor drug history doesn’t want to go anywhere near it.
Other: Yes, people, I turned Grimace good. WHAT YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?
