Bio: The Bionic Amplified Battle Efficiency Learner, or BABEL for short, was a program built by the top scientists and programmers at SAINT to help train and prepare their agents for any and all situations they may come in contact with out in the field. BABEL was built with a sophisticated AI system that allowed the program to learn from each training system and to monitor each agent individually, cataloging their strengths and weaknesses. This allowed for each new training session to be more difficult than the last. SAINT was infiltrated by spy from a mysterious rival organization and he uploaded a virus into the SAINT super computer systems in hopes of dismantling SAINT, leaving them open for an eventual attack. However the virus was downloaded into the BABEL mainframe and corrupted the program. BABEL then took over the entire computer systems, locking everyone in and forcing them to fight for their very lives. It took the combined efforts of the newest SAINT recruit, Saber, Agent Catherine Myers and lead technician Sam Gabriel to put a stop to BABEL’s rampage and delete the program. Unknown the agents at the time, BABEL was able to download itself into a local service android that was used to clean up the mess at SAINT HQ. After escaping the compound, Babel concluded that humanity was inefficient and therefore must be eliminated. Using the information gathered from the super computer, BABEL was able to upgrade its body with some of the most advanced tech available, including nanotechnology. Now BABEL has all the tools at its disposal to destroy the human race, especially the man who gave BABEL its first defeat, Saber.

BABEL was an idea I had bounced around in my head for a few years but had no idea how to execute it. I have always loved characters like Ultron and Braniac and knew I wanted a character like that in my 'Verse. I also was determined to use that name and come up with an acronym for it cause I felt it was perfect for this type of character.

I wanted to take advantage of the interchangeable attachments from the BAT figure. Eventually it came down to just going through the fodder box and seeing what I had that would work.
