Yes, in general, my father and I made our wealth here. It is a land of oppurtunity.

Germany has a shameful past but it is emerging from it. I have mixed feelings about it. I want it to recover.
Where is your home town? What was/is it like?
A research facility, very unpleasant.
Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you, or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you?
Similar to me, although I obviously had my powers. I used them to fit in. My father home tutored me, but I snuck away often!
Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life?
I'm good at running a business. And I like to party! I'm not really bad at anything.
Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)?
My first four years of life I was just a test subject. They where pretty traumatic, I still have the occasional dimly remembered nightmare.
Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life.
Being rescued by my adoptive father and coming to America. It really was the beginning of my life.
What stupid things did you do when you were younger?

Yes, several photo's of my childhood and father. I still have the serial number bracelet I had as an infant.
When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision?
My father always felt I had a special purpose. I guess I agree with him. My business is as successful as I could wish, and I guess it's time to turn my attention to a nobler cause, something my Father suggested on his death bed.
Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why?
No.
Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you?
I engaged in industrial espionage when we started out our company, using my powers. It's pretty unlikely that will come out from 40 years in the past.
Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why?
Not really, despite my powers.
If you do have these secrets, what do you fear would happen if the truth became known? How far would you go to protect those secrets?
Pretty far, mainly to protect my father and his (my) company. It's unlikely to have any really serious impact at this stage, so I wouldn't kill or use violence. I may bend the law slightly to protect the reputation of the company.
Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge?
No.
