History
Date of Birth: May 29th, 1974
Home: Hyde Park, Los Angeles, California, United States
Family: Marvin and Alicia Kubrik (parents); Henry (birth name)
The Empowerment: Observed Injustice (grew up in South Central, joined the Crips, arrested and reformed and joined the police and the CRASH unit; encountered a gang of "mutant freaks" [fomori] on a police raid that triggered his awareness of the Hidden World), 1992
Mentor: Mr. Grey
The Test: Trial by Wit (he was recruited by a MiB clean-up squad sent to clean up the fomori; after indoctrination and training, he had to pass a test in which he had to figure out which simulated people were RDs and react quickly and accurately to potential threats)
Comrades: Agents Mel Thwarte and Howard Jakes
Key Event #1: War (Cole was trained and prepped for brutal Front Line work against RDs and other threats, which he proved himself agains valiantly over the next two decades)
Key Event #2: War (he became renowned for his judicious eye and calm will even in the face of horror, even to the point of once interrogating a true Nephandic freak of horror and learning the location of its nest, leading to its effective clearance; he was also notorious for confronting and outing his MiW handler after being improperly ordered to gun down Sleeper civilians who were no threat)
Transition: Reassignment (Cole's skill, circumspection, and unquestioned devotion earned him a promotion to security services and assigned as his principal a prodigy child currently under the scope of the Ivory Tower, but his problem to baby-sit and protect)

Wynona
Weakness
Crash
Cole's been on the Front Lines all his life. He's not accustomed to the slow pace of bodyguarding, especially a teenage girl. He needs to remember that his role is defensive. There is nothing to rush or raid.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
He (like his principal) are well under the thumb of Control and receive regular check-ups, and his job keeps him largely off the radar of bad guys now anyway.
