History:   Ultra-Violence remembers very little about his past.  In fact, the earliest he can remember is the attacks on the city by the Winter King.  He woke up under a pile of snow on the street, a Winter Lord standing over him, preparing to smash him to paste.  Without thinking, a single word escaped his lips, and the blow that would surely kill him never came.  The foot of the beast was less than 6 inches from the top of his head, but would not come down any farther. 

A magical force shield was protecting him.  He called it, he knew that, but where he learned the spell, he couldn't remember, and at that moment had very little time consider.  Another phrase was spoken, and the area around him exploded with bale fire, melting the Winter Lord.

Not knowing any other life, Ultra-Violence spent those first few weeks of his new life battling the Winter King's minions, stopping barely to rest, finding more of his memories, and using the power he found within himself to defend his fellow heroes with shields similar to his own, though not as powerful as that first.

With the Winter King defeated, Ultra-Violence has very little direction.  He spends his time now with the League of Superheroes defending his new allies, and searching for his lost identity.

 

Public Opinion: Few citizens of Paragon City have ever heard of Ultra-Violence.  Those that have find him a cocky, though handsome young man.  His charm is matched only by his bravado, and many a younger would-be-victim finds herself smitten by his presence, as he bounds away from a rescue.
