CHas the power to encrust himself with a nigh-impenetrable diamond-like substance. Can also detach the substance and use it as a weapon, or currency (the substance has all the qualities of diamond, thus it is as valuable to appraisers).
Bio: Adam was a street vendor and harmless con-artist living in Manhattan. He always had a tremendous sense of
humor and used this to distract his marks. His charm and resourcefulness always afforded him a reasonable amount
of slack from the local police. They would occasionally hassle him but he always got out of it, one way or another.
When he was a kid, he was always getting into trouble and finding a way out of it, due to his natural intelligence
and intuitiveness. He left home at a young age to pursue a life of riches, and often viewed his chosen profession
as a stepping stone on his way to a life in the performing arts. He met Snow and Sabotage when they first arrived
in Manhattan, and promptly conned them out of a good portion of the money they had. Adam didn't know at the time
their situation, but he always made a point not to feel guilty about his cons because he feared it would be his
downfall. When he discovered that Snow and Sabotage were living on the streets, largely due to the loss of their
funds to Adam, he decided to try to help them whenever he could. The three of them became good friends, without
Snow and Sabotage ever knowing how badly he had ruined their chances to make it in Manhattan. When Snow and
Sabotage hit rock bottom and were compelled to volunteer for the SHADE, Adam accompanied them to the facility
as a sign of support. However, once there, Maddicorp's agents had no choice but to subdue Adam as well, and he
became the third subject.
When he awoke following the Kelly Incident, Adam was covered in what appeared to be thick crystal
(he would of course discover later it was identical to diamond). He left with Snow and Sabotage, but feeling
that he'd already done enough damage to their lives, he went his separate way. He still sees the two every now
and then, and supports their stand against Maddicorp (due to his own freedom being at stake as well). He can
often be found fighting alongside them, and sharing his "funding" with them. He still has his sense of humor,
but even though he takes a light-hearted stance to most situations, he can be serious when he needs to.
