Background
Personality and attributes
He is not above using others as a patsy through the use of his disguise ability. By taking on a disguise, he was capable of putting blame on another person and saying that they were in fact him in disguise. Such acts often saw the accused being killed by their comrades allowing Alex to escape detection.
Powers and abilities
The virus that affected Alex Mercer had a number of abilities that were above that of a normal Human. This included increased strength, speed as well as endurance. His strength was far above that of a simple Human being which allowed him to easily overpower Humans and even pick up vehicles such as cars. In addition, he ahd the capacity to jump great heights and even destroy cars with his fists alone. Mercers speed was so greater than normal allowing him to outrun Humans and even vehicles. With his speed, he was able to run up buildings with ease. The increased strength went in hand with his endurance as he was now able to survive falling from great heights; falling from the top of skyskrappers to the ground with such a fall causing shockwaves that was capable of hurting others on that level. Furthermore, he was able to survive weapon fire from bullets and even take on shots from rockets.
Alex Mercer also gained further powers compared to his natural ones. The virus allowed him to control his own biomass to extraordinary levels. He gained the power to consume other beings through a simple touch; devouring their bodies and adding them into his own. This act had two effects; the first is that it replenished Mercers biomass thus regenerating any wounds he suffered from earlier and the second act is that the person consumed became a part of Alex. Their very DNA became a part of his own allowing him access to their memories and thoughts; in a way they were a part of him though such an act meant that he struggled to put all the memories together. After consumption, Alex gained the ability to take on that persons appearance allowing him to live as that person without being detected through ordinary means. This allowed him to take on the persona of doctors or act as a soldier who was attached to the quarantinee forces.
