ROGUES GALLERY ENTRY #19: BRAIN

REAL NAME: Samuelle Piluras
AGE: 32
BASE OF OPERATIONS: Mobile
ASSOCIATES/ACCOMPLICES/MINIONS: Foray, Flying Fortress, Brawn, Firestrike, Gauntlet, Tangler
AFFILIATION: ALBINO CRIME SYNDICATE
CURRENT STATUS: At Large

APPEARANCE: Samuelle is a thin, tall man with black hair cut short (his is bald on top).  He usually wears a goatee and mustache, and he cultivates an air of sophistication about his person.  He is fond of wearing expensive black suits, even in combat.  He has been voted best dressed villain five years running.

BACKGROUND: Samuelle and his twin brother Michelle are both mutants who grew up in Paris, France.  From the day they reached puberty they proved to be a devastating pair.  Samuelle would plan the crimes with his incredible intellect, and Michelle would insure they were carried out with his inhuman strength.  They gained The Albino’s attention when they stole from her.  By now her reputation had grown so that everyone knew who she was.  Samuelle, wisely approached her with an apology and with everything he and his brother stole, with two hundred percent interest.  The Albino was impressed with his intelligence and his past record, so she “offered” him and Michele a position in her organization.  Samuelle and Michele have been with her since.

Brain was murdered by the clone of Flying Fortress.

POWERS: Samuelle is an accomplished mentalist with the ability to read minds, project thoughts, and scramble his opponent’s mental impulses to either make him see illusions or feel tremendous pain.  His only drawback is that he is your typical all brains, no brawn wimp and would be trashed in the first two seconds of any fight.  This is why he always fights from cover, the better hidden he is the better.  He and his brother almost always double-team an opponent.    Samuelle is also an accomplished strategist and planner.  It is for this reason that he is The Albino’s chief field commander.

PERSONALITY: Samuelle is a physical coward who hides behind his twin brother’s huge biceps.  He is fond of saying nasty things then ducking for cover when someone comes to collect on the check his mouth has written by taking it out of his ass.  Other than this fault he is a shrewd thinker.  He does actually seem to care about his brother; when the French super hero Le Halberd almost gutted Michele Samuele lobotomized him.  Samuelle has also never spoken in any but a respectful tone to his brother, he has never criticized him for his lack of creativity or intelligence.  Of course, that could be simple prudence.
