GVD (Generalized Visual Description): Triggs dresses in a three piece pinstriped suit with a matching overcoat all of expensive quality.

He also favors two-toned shoes made from a very high grade of leather from best guess, and they never lack a high shine even when walking in wet or dirty conditions.

Superhuman Abilities: Ability to suddenly manifest specific weapons;

A: A Tommy Gun which never appears to need reloading. Furthermore, the bullets it fires can pass easily through body armor without causing any damage to it yet going straight into the body of the target. Despite in some cases entry and no exit wounds, no projectiles can be found during hospitalization nor autopsy. Also capable of shooting open any secured door, regardless of the measures taken.

A: A Tommy Gun which never appears to need reloading.

Despite in some cases entry and no exit wounds, no projectiles can be found during hospitalization nor autopsy. Also capable of shooting open any secured door, regardless of the measures taken.

B: A .38 revolver, which has the same abilities as the T.G. and the destructive power of a .357 Magnum.

C: A shotgun, circa nineteen twenties and capable of blowing out the reinforced engine of a police car, as though it contained high yield slugs. Like the two listed above, this requires no reloading.

D: A wooden baseball bat, capable of shattering a standard human bone or rupturing an organ of same with one single blow.

E: A stiletto, capable of slitting skin deeply and easily without issue of coverings protect or otherwise.

F: A stick of dynamite, which demonstrates the same effect and force as a one pound charge of C-4. Despite the relative low level of damage, a single stick is capable of opening a safe even if examination of the door shows not enough damage to account for this.

Other Superhuman Abilities;

Able to manifest a silver cigarette case that always has ten cigarettes in it, a strike anywhere match, and a flask made from the same kind of metal as the case. It is suspected the contents of both case and flask are of high quality.

Other Superhuman Abilities;

Possesses a wallet of fine calf skin, from which he may extract a one hundred dollar bill dated 1919; the money appears genuine, and though Agents report there is nothing else in said wallet, he has been observed opening it and removing another bill exactly like previously noted without ever putting a new one in.

Some limited form of telepathy; seems able to wipe the minds of witnesses simply by yelling, 'Nobody saw nothing!' and firing his gun into the air for as short a length as two seconds.

Super Strength; Triggs was reported to hit a man in the stomach area so hard it lifted the victim off their feet. Subject died of injuries a short time later, an autopsy conducted discovered extensive tissue, organ, and even bone damage consistent with being hit by a commercial bus traveling at least an estimated sixty miles per hour. It is theorized Triggs could rip the door off a standard vehicle without trouble.

Impervious to harm; Agents attacked Triggs disguised as muggers, attempted to both cut him and shoot him with a small caliber firearm. Report stated Triggs received no damage, in fact even his clothing remained unaffected to their efforts. A second experiment was conducted with an Agent disguised as an angry drunk, whom hit Triggs with a right hook to the side of the head followed by jabs and hard punching. The subject simply smiled, and remained again unaffected before demonstrating his own strength and turning the aforementioned Agent into the victim noted above. As he could claim self defense and Agency involvement might come to light in the issue, no charges were filed. Limited additional research into this matter has been performed to date, so the full extent of this 'impervious state' is unknown yet predicted to be possibly quite high.

This immunity extends to Gifts that directly harm a person such as fire or lightning, and thing such as enhanced or super strength do no more damage to him than a normal punch or kick; which is to say, none at all. Also all mental Gifts do not work, for issuing commands to reading his thoughts. The reason for such a strong block, when he himself has not exhibited mental levels of impressive power to date, is currently unclear.

Possible Reality Manipulation; when brought to trail, the evidence against him turns from solid to less than compelling: Video footage of him committing a crime is blurry making it impossible see details to prove it is him, recorded conversations become distorted so his voice cannot be identified, etc..

Common Uses: Triggs likes to commit crimes in a quick and clean fashion; get in, get the goods, get out. If someone such as a guard opens fire on Triggs, the criminal will make an example of him quickly to dampen any thoughts from others about confronting him. Though he is not against killing, he has no taste for extra blood if he decides such is not required.

Specialized Equipment: Aside from that noted, none to date.

Specialized Training and Skills: Extremely skilled with the weapons he is able to manifest, an excellent gambler to the level that it actually seems impossible for him to lose; however he is careful not to attract attention to this, so he will not be banned and therefore may gamble more later. Cards, dice, betting, the form changes yet his 'luck' does not. Subtle investigations have been conducted, yet no rigging or outside manipulation in any game of chance or event he has placed a wager on has been to date located. Also very capable fighting with his fists, on par with a champion boxer.

Hypothesized Goal: Andrew Triggs gives every indication that he wants to be a crime lord like those of old, to the degree of Al Capone.

Personality Profile: Triggs is easy going overall, and can almost always be found with a smirk as though life is a joke and only he knows the punchline. He is capable of extreme violent acts, yet also gives to charities and does other acts that indicate he is a good person as well; if this is true to his nature or simply a ploy to make himself look good, has yet to be determined. He is very intelligent and mentally capable, determined, and appears to be a man of his word when he gives it. All in all, he not only acts and live like a Gangster from the bygone Silver Screen days, he also appears to possess fully the mindset according to our best professionals in mental matters.

Background: Despite multiple searches with ITSDA resources, history on subject was unattainable. No birth certificate could be located, nor information from any DMV, even school transcripts seem not to exist though Triggs has been observed both reading and writing. Agents have obtained glasses and other materials he has handled, yet no fingerprints could be lifted. The only paperwork on file is with the Illinois Business Bureau, stating him to licensed as a seller of used furniture. Searching camera feeds puts the first sighting of him in Chicago, some months after the attack.

Awareness: Unknown for sure, yet suspected to be yes do to watching and smiling at plain clothed Agents sent in to observe him. Has even bought them drinks and dinner on several occasions.

Threat Level: 3 tentatively, with possible revision and increase in the future.
