Keith Silver is a male villain that features in Project ARMS.

Biography

Keith Silver was a male clone created by the Egrigori society who developed the Keith Series for use in the ARMS experiments. A young Silver would be a test subject who resided at a special facility where he was given a canary as a pet. This bird was kept in a cage and Keith Silver would often hear the canary sing to him which would put him at peace. In this time, he would encounter his older brother Keith Black that would seek to guide him. He would shepherd him into taking part in his ARMS implantation where his left arm was removed and in place the implant was given to Silver. Once done, he would be taken for testing where he used his newfound ARMS to fire powerful blasts that could annihilate targets which would normally take an entire battalion to destroy. However, the scientists in charge of the program did not believe Keith Silver were using his abilities properly. Thus, Keith Black intervened where he took Silver's canary and implanted the material of the ARMS within it where it gradually took over the bird turning it into a monstrous being. A tearful Keith Silver was forced to use his abilities to destroy the mutated canary and forcing him to embark on a more crueler path in life then what he adopted as a child. As a result, Silver became a ruthless enforcer within the ranks of the Egrigori and served as one of the leading operatives for the Keith Series. His ARMS was then given the code name of Mad Hatter who had great destructive power.

When the ARMS children travelled to America, they sought to find the headquarters of the Egrigori in the United States. Their travels led them to the town of Gallows Bell where they were initially attacked by the Chapel Children. These children sought to use the ARMS in order to overthrow the Egrigori but this plan was discovered by the Egrigori. However, despite their plans, Keith Silver decided to act on his accord and took a large group of soldiers along with cyborgs to achieve the goal of recovering Azazel. Due to Azazel's presence, Silver had to be conservative in his measures but the entity was destroyed during an attempt to recover it. Thus, Silver decided to act openly and rejected his 'sister' Keith Violet's attempts at a more peaceful option. Keith Silver openly assaulted the town and intended to challenge as well as destroy the Jabberwock. As a result, he encountered Ryo Takatsuki and entered into the battle himself where he kept the ARMS child on the run with his own energy project limb. However, Takatsuki managed to trick Silver and used the opportunity to go close quarters to scratch him on the chest. The damage could not be healed as the Jabberwock's claws negated an ARMS healing abilities. In shock, Silver decided to transform into the Mad Hatter in order to destroy Takatsuki but he was briefly saved by his friend Takeshi Tomoe. Before Tomoe could escape, Silver damaged his leg forcing the pair back to the ground where the Mad Hatter attempted to kill Takeshi until Ryo transformed into Jabberwock. As Jabberwock, he intercepted Silver's energy attack and magnified it back at the Mad Hatter thus greatly damaging him.

Overview

The Mad Hatter.

Personality and attributes

In appearance, his human form shared the same appearance as the other members of the Keith series namely being a blond white skinned male. At any point, he was able to transform into his ARMS form where he resembled a large skeletal monstrous bipedal being.

His abilities made him believe that he was invincible and thus he was overconfident. As a result, he was shocked when Ryo Takatsuki managed to scratch his chest and that the wound did not heal.

Powers and abilities

Similar to the other ARMS, Silver had superhuman abilities that were afforded by the implant within his body. This same trait provided him a number of powers above a human namely a natural healing factor that repaired any damage done to his body. Such a regenerative process was negated, however, by those that were specially made to assault ARMS like the Jabberwock program. The Mad Hatter was able to shift his left arm into its ARMS configuration where it resembled a monstrous limb that had the power to emit high temperature particle beams. These blasts generated high temperates that were able to destroy buildings and vehicles that would normally take an entire battalion to destroy. In addition, he could emit an energy shield that could intercept attacks thus protecting the Mad Hatter from such assaults. His ultimate attack was the Brionic Spear that would normally obliterate his opponents.
