PowersThe Black Fox prefers not to get involved in too many direct
combats, but rather to rely on his wits and reputation to scare
villains.
HistoryGrant was only fourteen years old when he saw his family gunned
down by some of Moreno's boys for not paying their "protection" money. He swore
on that night that he would do whatever it took to bring them to justice. He
liquidated all of the family's business assets and spent the next few years
honing his mind and body - learning the skills he would need to bring down the
people who murdered his famliy. He became the Black Fox. During the Pulp Era he
fought crime as a masked "mystery man". A few years later - years spent
sucessfully terrorizing the criminal underworld - Centurion made his presence
known. It was as if lightning struck him right there. and he knew what he needed
to do. Fashioning a costume for himself (although not the bright colors of
Centurion) and improving his arsenal, the Black Fox is now more effective than
ever.

NotesPersonality/Motivation: Driven by the memory
of his family's murder at the hands of the Neptune City mob to right the wrongs
of society and bring evil-doer to justice, the Black Fox operates in the dark
underbelly of Neptune City, where heroes such as Centurion and the All-American
never seem work. Quote: "Justice has been served." Appearance: A
black & dark crimson costume with a fox-head inspired cowl and a black cape.
