Bio:
Casey is currently the only person reported as being afflicted by a skin disease called geodermatitis (known unofficially as Robinson’s Disease), which causes his skin to be incredibly hard and rock-like. The condition also brought with it incredible size and strength, as Casey learned when he had grown into adulthood. Coming from the Caligo district known as the Devil’s Porch, an often overlooked neighborhood of slums, Casey saw only two paths in life: crime or crime fighting. He chose the first option to begin, using his immense strength and virtual invincibility to rob stores, banks, and houses. But he was finally captured by none other than Mr. Ultimate, Caligo’s most famous superhero. Mr. Ultimate saw more in Casey than the ill-mannered ne’er-do-well that he depicted himself as, and the hero convinced the Caligo court to offer Casey the choice to join Hero Corps, a super team started decades earlier by Mr. Ultimate, rather than face a long jail sentence. Reluctantly, Casey accepted, and though his first few months on the time were turbulent at best, he ultimately assimilated himself well.
