Silco, the Industrialist

[Caitlyn can at least offer information about this smug guy. She knows him quite well at this point.]

This man is named Silco, a man from my homeworld. I should note for transparency's sake that he is a personal enemy of mine due to my status as law enforcement at home and his operations as a crime boss.

He is on the aged side of things, getting closer to fifty, and he is in relatively poor health due to a lifetime of smoking and what I believe is exposure to toxic chemicals. Silco is a drug-dealer by trade, distributing a drug known as Shimmer throughout the city of Zaun, and it's quite possible that he can reproduce Shimmer here in this world.

Personally, I would not consider him a major threat to anyone possessing supernatural abilities due to his advanced age, but he is an incredibly vicious man who favors knives. He may be dangerous in other ways. He is also highly intelligent and will attempt to distract you to gain the upper-hand. It should be noted that he prefers skullduggery and backstabbing if forced to fight, and he is faster than he looks. He is an experienced streetbrawler, presumably from his youth.

If Silco manages to recreate Shimmer here, then that may be an issue, as it bestows supernatural speed and strength on anyone that ingests it for a time, but it wracks the body in the aftermath of a high. Shimmer is an iridescent purple and causes the eyes to glow the same way, so if you see an opponent exhibiting such, use caution.

If you are forced to deal with him, don't let him sway you with words. He's got a black heart, and he really only cares for power and profit, outside of a limited circle of associates he regards as family. I do not have evidence of the presence of his associates at this time.
