| Powers | On top of natural slow regeneration and recuperative ability, he can wear the armor of his ancestor, Wyrmwyrd, which gives him increased strength. They also give him magical control over the four element, Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Also in his possession is Wyrmwyrd's spellbook, which considerably widens the range of magics he can cast. (Also, not really a power, but he possesses a necklace that keeps him in his true form. When removed, it will cause him to turn into an alternate form that was the result of a botched spell. This other form has enhanced strength and durability, but no regeneration or magical ability. See OTHER DESCRIPTION) |
| Weaknesses | Though he has the power, he has little to none of the discipline necessary to wield that power effectively most of the time. The only time that he can use the power in his armor is when his emotions are intensely focused on a specific target, but when that happens, he loses control with devestating results. Also, while the spells in his ancestor's book are more stable, they almost always contain syllables that can be mangled by his severe lisp, causing the magics to become unpredictable. |

| Alignment | Mercenary with occasional criminal tendencies |
| Profession | Founding member and magical support for Miscellaneous Mercenaries Lmtd. |

| Description | It is difficult to see much of the self-professed Wyrm, the Conqueror. Although he wears several layers of clothing in order to make himself look bigger, this skinny 4' tall gecko is still dwarfed by the grossly outsized metal boots and gauntlets he wears, as well as the glasses with lenses that would look more at home on an observatory telescope. On each of the boots and gauntlets is a single large jewel. A ruby and a topaz on the left and right gauntlets, respectively, and an emerald and a sapphire on the left and right boots. |
| Other Description | Standing at 7'6" is a female Yeti. Though she is completely nude, soft, shaggy white fur completely covers her amazonian frame, including all of the 'naughty bits.' Still, she is a sight to behold with her long, shapely legs, wide hips that taper into a toned, flat stomach that is shadowed by two enourmous prize-winning-pumpkin sized breasts. If anyone gets to her face, that part of her anatomy looks very much like that of the more famous Yeti. White fur completely covers any facial features except for two reflective blue eyes and the two cute little horns that project from the sides of her head. |
| History | Born into a proud family used to wealth and privilege until his great-grandfather hid their fortune and then got run over by a horse-drawn cab in 1883, young Sylvester had none of the wealth or privilege as a child, but that didn't stop his dear mother from trying to brainwash the pride into him. Each night, he was laid to bed with tales of his ancestors' glory days, and the notion that he would be the one to restore the family's honor, OR ELSE. By the time he was 5, he could recite every story, particularly the ones about his earliest known, greatest, and (according to his mother) the one that should never be talked about outside the family, the warlord/wizard Wyrmwyrd.
By that time, Sylvester had come to believe himself that he could be the one to restore the family's glory, but then something terrible happened. School. Many of the horrors he underwent between then and graduation have been blocked from memory, but he never forgot that his torments were based around his singular combination of shortcomings. Namely, his scrawny size, his severe lisp, his need for ludicrously thick glasses, and a marked lack of coordination. Emotionally scarred for life, Sylvester survived through high school. He worked various odd jobs for a few months after that, until the untimely death of his mother, who choked on a piece of Christmas turkey, provided him with just enough insurance money to go to college, where he got his degree and became a CPA.
Quiet and uneventful as his new job was, however, Sylvester was never happy. Even among other geeks who spent their time rummaging through columns of numbers, he was still the smallest and weakest person around, and it bothered him greatly. There was nothing he could do about it, however, until nearly 15 years later, when he was in a second-hand store looking for some bargains. They shouldn't have been in a store like that in the first place, let alone for the ridiculously low price of $14.95, but there they were. A set of large metal boots and gauntlets, each with a huge gemstone embedded in them that twinkled with power. A power that resonated with something that Sylvester recognized on an instinctive level, for they were the enchanted armor of his ancestor, Wyrmwyrd.
Whether he found them, or they found him is unclear, but once Sylvester took the armor and slipped into it, he felt a bit of the power his ancestor had once enjoyed. In that moment, he stopped being Sylvester Samson Wormwood, and became the feared villain, Wyrm, the Conqueror! At least, that was the original plan. Things didn't quite work out like that. |

Winter 2000- Meets and befriends fellow future Misc Merc founders Grey Panther, Silk Slinger, and Precipitrana. Falls madly in love with Precipitrana.
Winter 2000- In a museum heist along with Grey Panther and Precipitrana, Wyrm stumbles across the Book of Wyrmwyrd, his ancestor's spellbook and journal. It took an altercation with Talia to get it, but all three of the thieves got away safely, and he managed to abscond with the tome.
Spring 2000- Wyrm tries an experiment with a yeti bone stolen by SilkSlinger. Due to his inexperience, it goes quite wrong, resulting in him randomly turning into a female yeti.
Spring 2000- Helps found Misc Merc Ltd.
Summer 2000- Precipitrana suffers an accident that causes her to take on various personas, forms, and powers. To counter it, he figures out how to enchant a necklace that can restore the wearer to their true form. He ends up making one for Precipitrana, and one for himself to counter his own randomly shifting form. And it WORKS, too!
Fall 2000- Precipitrana leaves for good, devestating Wyrm, though he successfully hides it for a long time.
10/14/00- Though still mourning the absence of his first true love, Wyrm finds love again in the warm heart of Miss Jyusan Arkana. |
