Adam Bannon

Character History
Adam Bannon was born into the wealthy Bannon family of New York City, USA. His family are famous for their company, Bannon & Co. (colloquially known as Bannon's), an American Luxury jewelry and specialty retailer headquartered in NYC.

Becoming Strong
At a young age, Adam was kidnapped by the eldest son of a former employee of Bannon's parents, who was let go due to stealing money from the company. The police apprehended the young man and Adam was returned to his parents. The whole ordeal made Bannon realize how weak and dependent he was on others and he made the decision to change that. He took up martial arts & self defense, learnt how to fix/repair various things, invested time into understanding how to make the most of something, etc. As he grew older, Adam would spend more time away from home, and from the city, often practicing and sharpening his combat and survival skills in the woodlands.

Military Service
Upon completing high school, Adam refused his parents wishes and joined the military. After a few years of service, having seen action on the battlefield and after receiving medals for bravery and efficiency, Adam was honorably discharged.

Gaining Powers
Adams father Gerald allowed his son the chance to travel the world for a year, but expected him to come work for him upon the end of his travels.

While traveling in the south American rainforests, Bannon and some other tourists were captured by armed rebels. During the night, some of the rebels, drunk from alcohol, took a young female hostage away from the group. Adam hesitated to do something and only after several minutes did he do so. He was able to beat and sneak his way to the woman, who had been beaten and was about to be raped. in a rage he brutally slaughtered the men, sustaining several gun shots in the process. In the frenzy, he accidently killed the young woman with a slash to the throat. Bannon ceased his frenzy, realizing what he had done. He succumbed to his wounds, falling into the river unconscious. He was found and tended to by a tribe of natives, who utilized a special concoction to assist in his healing. The concoction had an unforeseen effect on Bannon, granting him thicker skin, muscle and bone. After a week of sleep he awoke, and after a few days of taking it easy he presented himself back to civilization, where he returned home, after giving statements of the events to the authorities.

Becoming Mr. Bridge
Adam did not tell his parents what happened but they were able to piece some things together. Adam instead learnt more about the young woman whom he had killed, finding out that she was from Bridge City USA and that she had family there. He observed the family for a time, secretly paying for their daughters funeral, as well as paying off their mortgage. Noting how corrupt and crime-ridden the city was, Bannon approached his father and requested to take on the responsibility of overseeing the Bannon's stores in Bridge City. Gerald agreed to this saying little, just happy to see that his son was doing something productive to take his mind off of what he had witnessed. Using his inheritance, Adam purchased a number of properties, including a mansion in one of the affluent neighborhoods. He crafted and designed the various tools, weapons and equipment he intended to use as Mr. Bridge.
