Mongoose Guy
Real Name: Jon Grey Occupation: Super Hero Base of Operations: the Weasel Cave Marital Status: Single Current Status: MIA Jon Grey’s parents met in a Dystopian hospital, where each was being treated for a condition that accelerated their aging process. Falling in love, they married and bore a son – and soon after perished in their early twenties. At first it was feared that Jon suffered from their ailment too since he matured at a faster rate than the other children did. The hospital staff had no idea what could be done for him, so he ran free studying all the books he could find and playing on all the furniture – he’d be dead soon enough. Oddly enough though, most of the staff perished first. They, along with the Hospital Director, were selling drugs made in the labs which is a big no-no in Ferret Man’s “Big Book of Things I Shoot People For” (Available in both soft and hardcover from Pulver Publishing). Having a thing against shooting kids he doesn’t know deserve it, Ferret Man grabbed Jon before burning the hospital to the ground. Jon, figuring he was going to die soon enough, pleaded Ferret Man to take him in. The idea of having someone to draw fire appealed to him, so Jon was soon dubbed Mongoose Lad. It was a title that would stick with him for far longer than he had ever hoped! For you see, he inherited both his parent’s genetic defects, and they canceled each other out in a big way, so instead of aging quickly, his body’s ages more slowly every year. He was Ferret Man’s boy sidekick for THIRTY YEARS. Eventually, he was able to become his own man as Mongoose Guy. And Ferret Man took on a second Mongoose Lad… but ouch… oh, that ended badly. Moving along… MG took well to being his own boss, especially after Ferret Man disappeared, because he had never stopped calling him Mongoose Lad. Now always Mongoose Lad, errr, Guy, has put his energies toward training the next next generation of heroes (he is after all fifty years older than the kids he’s training), and remained a resident of Vayne Manor before his own disappearance after a trip to the SMT Labs. I’m sure he’s doing just fine.
