Profile
Suspicious, insincere, and sniveling are three things that describe Maroon best. Before Crimson was brought into the fold, he was assigned to be the leader of the Gestalt. He is very critical of Crimson's decisions and would like nothing better than to claim his command.

Maroon is a pure fighter who enjoys engaging foes. He's been trained in demolitions, but he's primarily used as muscle, and he's quite good at it. Maroon is a native of Austria.

His fellow Gestalt comrades are Red, Rouge, Ruby, and Lord Crimson.

Superhuman Powers
Flight, super speed, heightened reflexes, resistance to injury, and super strength.

Source of Powers and Weaknesses
Just like Lord Crimson, Maroon has neurites all throughout his body.He's very strong and extremely dangerous, but he's not an intelligent fighter. He lacks the sophistication and pure strength of Crimson, who constantly has to keep him in line.

Background
When you're a teenager, you add a lot of stupid things like spiky body armor and chainsaw weapons to your characters. Maroon had these. In fact, he wasn't even called Maroon. His first name was Spazz, which is about as lame as names get. When designing my villains for Dasien, I reused the character, keeping the ripping pattern in his costume but losing the horrible body armor. Bleh!

Dating all the way back to 1989, Maroon is the oldest character in the story thus far.

Name Meanings and Puns
All members of the Crimson Gestalt have names based on shades of the color red.
