~Mystery

Mystery, also known as the Mystery, is a superhero/vigilante, and a member of the Flickr Fighters and the Flickr Fighters Black Ops team. Despite being powerless, he uses the shadows to his advantage and his specialized staff to take down crime.

Origins
Most of Mystery's early life is unknown, except the fact that he was born on December 31st, 2003. At the age of two, he had surgery on his kidneys, due to one of them not functioning right.

Year 1: Career Start
At the age of 14 in 2018, Mystery knew that something had to change in the world, after having seen so much being wrong in it. He wanted to do something, mean something, but didn't know what or how. After having heard of the worldwide rising of heroes, and the formation of the Flickr Fighters in January, Mystery finally knew what to do. For the next few months, he started to train himself to become a hero, named the Mystery.

Mystery first started his superhero career in September of 2018, and joined the Flickr Fighters later that year.

Personality
Mystery is a quiet and reserved person and won't easily start a talk. However, over time he has improved his social skills towards his team members, and has become a lot more comfortable to talk to them. By opening up, he has shown to have a humorous and a serious side. Mystery has low self-confidence, which often makes him doubt himself. Mystery also suffers from anxiety, which is one of his biggest weaknesses.

While he will not admit it, Mystery deeply cares for his fellow members and would do whatever it takes to save them. If something would happen to one of them, he would blame himself for not being there to save them, even when it wasn't his fault.

He is known to be a nature lover, as he enjoys and respects it.
