Background/History: Alexander "Alexi" McKenna was born in 1985 in Sentry City, Missouri. His father is Sasha Kostya McKenna, a former Russian Olympic Gymnast and Spetsnaz Fitness Instructor who now teaches Martial Arts and Fitness Training. His mother is Murron Tara McKenna a Ballet Dancer, Actress, and Model who now teaches Ballet. Finally his big sister is the supermodel and actress Tamara McKenna. 

He was literally raised in the family Arts & Athletics Center. Alex was an excellent student, but a gifted athlete. He excelled at anything he tried, but his passion was to join the Canadian Olympic Gymnastics Team. He eventually won a spot as an alternate, but his dreams of Olympic glory were smashed when Doctors discovered he was a mutant. 

Life went on and a few weeks later a talent scout for Cirque du Soleil offered him a position as a Artist/Acrobat. Still a minor his parents agreed. He worked for them for 2 years and then his big sister called. She had been bugging him for years to join her in Paris and work as a Model and Actor. Now 19 he readily agreed. While there he discovered Parkour, the Art of Movement during a Stunt Work shop and quickly became an expert. 

Then fate stepped in. During a fashion show in featuring Catherine Marie Beauchamp, is a French fashion designer and the head of one of the ten haute couture design houses in Paris. Eurostar attacked and took hostages. 

Fortunately UNTIL received a tip and Defender Agents arrived along with the several French superheroes Siene (Left & Right Blank), the Chevalier, Autour (Goshawk), and a PRIMUS Silver Avenger arrived together.

Fiacho and the rest of Eurostar, caught off guard launched an immediate all out attack. Unfortunately Fiacho neglected to issue orders to his Terrorists. They panicked and then turn on the hostages. 

Alexi's dressed in a tuxedo and wearing mountain lion mask felt his perceptions change. Everything and everyone seemed to move in slow motion. Seeing his sister threatened an animal scream burst from his throat, startled the Terrorists, who swung around to face this unknown threat firing as they brought their weapons to bear. 

Moving with superhuman speed and agility he moved in on the Terrorists. He struck out instinctively and quickly took them out. Outside Eurostar had underestimated UNTIL and the Heroes. They fought a retreat and unfortunately Fiacho's arrived in time to find a male model standing over his Terrorists. Alex turned to see Fiacho and they maneuvered for position.

Fiacho's training, augmentations, and experience vs Alexi's youth, raw talent, and natural aptitude. Experience won, but before he could deliver the " coup de grâce" he was rescued by La Panthere. Between them they managed to drive him off. Unfortunately in the battle they had both lost their masks and they recognized each other. 

La Panthere - "Well well Monsieur! It seems we both have secret to keep. N'est ce pas? Alex?"
Cougar - "Oui Madame Beauchamp" 

Smiling insanely at each other they ducked back into the dressing rooms without being seen and changed. Then walked out together arm in arm together as if nothing happened. Alex left Madam Beaucamp to find his sister and see that she was safe. She was more concerned about him doing something reckless. She took one look at him and knew that he was the one who knocked out the terrorists. 

Tamara - "I think we had better talk" 
Alex - [smiling crazily] "Ooooh yeah!"

A few days later Alex received a delivery from Catherine Marie Beauchamp with a note. Inside was a costume made of a BioSteel body stocking with gloves, and helmet. 

The note read "With great power comes great responsibility" "So use responsibly N'est ce pas? Cougar"

Madame Beauchamp
xOxOxOx 

 

Cougar's crimefighting career began with a series of introductions made by Madam Catherine "La Panthere" Beauchamp, head of one of the great fashion houses of France. On returning home he began a double life. 

By day Alexander McKenna was a freelance Actor, Dancer, Model, Stuntman, Singer, and Public Relations representitive. He starred on Canadian Idol, Dancing with the Stars, and many other projects. He regularly donated his winnings to childrens charities, shelters, and second chance programs.  

 

By night he preyed on the predators on the city streets, hunted down organized crime racketeers, and stumbled onto the criminal super agents of VIPERs arms dealing operations. He became such a nuisance that they began hiring mercenaries like the Green Dragon to bring him down, but with the help of local law enforcement and some team ups managed to push them into dispatching the Serpent Squad. 

 

He was captured, tortured, and their Telepath learned his true identity. Fortunately Governments Super Agents rode to the rescue. Saving him, his parents, and his sister. After his recovery he accepted a position with Govrnments Superhero Liaison Program and after revealing the truth to his Agent went public with his idenity.

 

A few supervillains have made the mistake of attacking his Family only to discover they are no easy targets and Cougar revenge left them in the hospital.  

 

Cougar continues his charitable work and has even worked as a Hero For Hire. But fate has a sense of humor. Cougar is always in the right place at the wrong time.  

 

Personality/Motivation: Cougar's primary reason for donning a costume and fighting crime is protect those who can not protect themselves and and the thrill of it. 

 

Powers/Tactics: Cougar's strength, agility, speed, durability, and endurance are all at superhuman levels. He also possesses a Healing factor and has mastered the art of Pakour. 



Quote: "Not a good day to be a bad guy?" 


Appearance: Under his mask, Cougar is supermodel good looking in his early twenties (roughly 21 or 22 years old). He's in phenomenally good physical shape, with a strong, muscular build. As Cougar, Alex wears a dark gray BioSteel silk body stocking and full faced Feline stylized helmet. 


Campaign Use/Plot Hooks: 

  1. Dependent NPCs  
  2. Mutant prey of Minute Man Robots/I.H.A.
  3. VIPER wants to deal with this meddler  
  4. Green Dragon and Cougar have faced off numerous times. So far Cougar has managed to earn a draw. 
  5. His PS's and KS's can get him into lots of trouble including his looks. 



Cheers
