Cade Vanderbilt/Ammonite: Before he was a Seafarer, Cade Vanderbilt was the supervillain Ammonite. A victim of circumstance who lost everything he had through a string of bad decisions and pure bad luck, he turned to crime in a desperate attempt to gain some stability in his life, only to find himself in the clutches of the same organization who turned Wilbert Hiller, Sergio Garfield, and many unfortunate others into their living weapons. Cade emerged from their experiments with power only a fingersnap away, but completely and utterly mute.
Cade now finds an outlet to vent his frustrations in targeting coastal settlements and trade routes, but even he finds himself disturbed by the increasingly ruthless orders his superiors give him. One day, he fears he will eventually be made to do something so much worse than attacking cargo ships.
Ammonite’s Toolkit (superpower) is generating the body colossal sea monster around his himself and controlling it from a cocoon of flesh within the creature’s brain; the beast resembles the extinct mollusk serving as his namesake. Cade gains astoundingly powerful durability and strength when in this form, but he can only transform twice a day and can only last in his monster form for approximately 12 hours.
The price for Ammonite’s powers was his voice, rendering him completely unable to speak.
