Unable to hit my caps Offensively with a Regeneration power set, I was a little discouraged. Then I stumbled across another idea, more fitting with the whole, find more extra-normal people ...

Complications
Addiction: Suffering from the loss of his partner two years ago, his subsequent personal crusade to bring in the extra-normal killer, the scorn and derision of his peers, as well as intermittent migraines, has caused Agent Page to turn to alcohol, often inappropriately.
Motivation: Responsibility: As both an F.B.I. Agent, and a evolutionary catalyst, Agent Page feels a strong sense of responsibility towards both the public, and his fellow catalysts. He feels the public needs to be protected from the more aggressive catalysts, while they themselves need to be protected from public prejudice and fear.
Prejudice: As an evolutionary catalyst, if Agent Page's abilities came to light he could very easily be singled out, and even as a discredited federal agent, he still comes under considerable scrutiny.
Responsibility: Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity. Those words ring more true now than when he first swore them. His aberrant abilities instill in Page a greater responsibility, both to the public trust, and his fellow catalysts.

Background: Fidelity, Bravery and Integrity. These words ran through Page's thoughts as he graduated from Quantico. His new assignment was in New York, his grades in law and civics not withstanding, most likely the prestigious assignment was because of his connection, through his father, to the New York Police Department. WHen he arrived at the New York office, he was more intimidated than ever by his partner, Agent West. She was a legend among the new recruits, a profiler with an astounding conviction rate.
She was a patient partner, while intolerant of mistakes, she did not comment on his inexperience or lack of field work. Their case assignment was unusual, a series of abductions, no correlation between the missing persons, dissimilar sex, ages, religion or ethnicity. Almost entirely at random, other than the relatively small area where the abductions were occurring. During the course of the investigation, it became apparent that West was referring to previous reports or incidents, when Page pushed her on this, she eventually revealed that similar abductions had occurred in Chicago and Boston over the last sixteen months.
Two more attacks, and twice more a debilitating headache crippled the young Page, while the NYPD chuckled at the young agents nausea around a murder scene, Page thought otherwise and began to realize that his headaches were very directly related to their own investigations. So it was at the third scene, when he felt the headache begin he followed it, dropped down behind an alley and into the sewers. His partner West, seeing him head off followed him.
His headache led him through sewers, where they found disturbing physical evidence, flesh blood, abraded flesh, reptilian scales, and inhuman tracks in the raw sewage. Following this trail they were led to the New York Stockyards, and their confronted the killer. A monstrous thing, neither man, nor reptile, flashing red eyes, knife like claws, and teeth like razors. Page opened fire as the creature pounced at him, two in the chest, one in the head, the creature kept coming, savaging Agent West. Then it turned to Page, he watched in horror as the bullet wounds closed in its chest, the creatures hand reached back and surged forward ripping open the young Agents stomach.
Agent West didn't survive the night, Page too may have died, but somehow he awoke, the wounds across his stomach partially closed. He could feel the killers presence receding from him, as though travelling away into the night. But he knew he could find the creature again. Someday.
