The Repoman

The Repoman is simultaneously one of the most mysterious yet omnipresent heroes in Parahuman history.

History
The Repoman first came into the light in the 1950s, when he worked for the United States government. Back then, he mostly came up with unique ways to combat Parahumans by using their own powers against them.

Some time in the late 70s, he was contacted by Connor McNulty and hired to create a "power suit" for the aging Captain Fission and by 1977, the technical marvel was a reality. He reportedly started working closer with The Vanguard soon afterwards.

In the 90s, he began working very closely with up-and-coming hero Claptrap. There have been quite a few rumours surrounding the two, especially since The Repoman should be (at least) in his late sixties.

Theoretically though, anyone could be The Repoman. As many have speculated online; maybe there is more than one Repoman... Though that begs the question: where does The Vanguard find (at least two) Parahumans with, if not the same, very similar powers?

In the β-Timeline, he serves as the Dean of the ZPA following Ardent's arrest after the events of Breakout Star.

In the α-Timeline, he serves as the Dean of the ZPA following Ardent's retirement in 2026.

Costume
The Repoman barely makes public appearances so very few people know what he looks like. He wears a hooded black costume over top of a power suit, similar to but lighter weight than Captain Fission's.

Story
The Repoman serves as Irene's mentor, and the Gadgeteering teacher.

Power
The Repoman's power allows him to build anything, provided he has the right materials. This does exclude impossible contraptions or anything that breaks physics, but it does allow him to significantly influence the technology level of the entire Earth, making him one of the most valuable parahumans alive today.

His inventions are known as "Repotech", named for, Repositions Technologies Co., Ltd., his multinational technology company headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri.
