Walt Harriman is a retired member of the British military, with a heavily classified and secret past. Official records list him as an unremarkable member of Royal Air Force aircrew, but in truth he is a former agent of Military Intelligence Section 13: a secret British agency established to counter threats posed by mutants, superhumans, and the occult. He is a mutant himself, and has passed the x-gene on to three children: Jason, Thomas, and Katrina.

Walter Harriman was murdered in June 2009 by an unknown assailant.

History
Walter's military career began with him as a rather uneventful tour as Private in the Royal Corps of Transport. He was there to satisfy the terms of his conscription, and served for eighteen months before looking elsewhere. Things changed however when he applied for the Royal Air Force: screening during the selection process highlighted him as potentially posessing a trait that was later identified as the x-gene, and he was retained for an extra day to meet with agents from Section 13.

Eventually inducted into the organisation as an Agent, Walter went through a variety of different training schemes with a variety of branches of the UK military, including the Parachute Regiment, the Royal Marines, and the SAS. He also went through "official" training in the RAF as well as part of his cover, as NCO Aircrew in order to reduce the time spent in training. Assigned to a crew that consisted entirely of specially-trained S13 operatives like himself, his first tour of duty saw him assigned to Malta, using RAF Luqa as a base of operations for various missions in Southern Europe and the Middle East.

Various other assignments followed, including an aircrew positions based at St Mawgan in Cornwall and Kinloss in Scotland, and a "search and rescue" post at RAF Pitreavie Castle; most of his missions still remain heavily classified. After twenty years with the RAF however, Harriman found himself made redundant when Section 13 was shut down by the British government in 1991.

Harriman returned to civilian life, bouncing around various jobs but never really finding a place for himself. When an accident claimed the life of his wife some years later he spiralled into alcoholism and depression, and was eventually declared unfit to raise his youngest child - Katrina - by social services, and so was left living alone while his daughter moved to London with Walter's eldest son, Jason.

Nearly two decades after leaving the military, Harriman was approached by a former associate, who informed him that the secure database to which all of Section 13's files had been transferred had been breached by cyber-terrorists, and that various members of Harriman's former unit had been targetted. When Walter's own family was targetted in the attacks, he came out of retirement and hiding to investigate. It soon turned out to be a trap; having exposed himself, the mutant in question attacked and killed Harriman, then escaped before a positive ID could be made.

Powers / Abilities
Superhuman Accuracy - though subtle, and almost impossible to notice without prior knowledge, Harriman has the ability to never miss, regardless of what weapon he is firing. Originally dismissed as a "psychic power" by Section 13, it was later quantified as hyper-enhanced reflexes: Walter's eyes process visual information at a much faster rate than most humans, sharpening his reaction times and allowing him to carefully and meticulously aim his shots in a fraction of a second. It also provides him an advantage in hand-to-hand combat, making him a highly proficient brawler.
