The Iron Lord

Reinier Ramirez was a Cuban/American born in the United States , his date of birth December 2 1944. He lived a relatively "normal" life but as he grew older so did the grudge towards the way his people were being treated in Cuba, this animosity eventually expanded to a point that when he was the age of 17 he joined the Brigade 2506 militia that would later invade Cuba in April 17, 1961. This is where Reinier's whole life changed, in April 20, 1961 after three days of ferocious fighting and shortly after Reinier himself killed a score of CRAF soldiers he would meet his end, death from a AP 76.2 MM round that struck the upper right portion of his torso, for all intents and purposes that's where his story should have ended were it not for the Soviet Union special project "Lazar". Lazar was a special program in the works as far back as 1939 that was initially founded by German scientists who sought to create the means to both create super soldiers for the Nazi regime AND resurrect soldiers who had fallen in combat, the project initially had minimum support and funding through out the course of the great war but it wasn't until the Soviet Union getting their hands on the staff personnel and equipment that project took off.

Trial runs on the final refined process to create "Lazarus Soldiers" after twenty two years of hard work started on April 1st 1961. The Government of Cuba wanting to earn favor to the Soviet Union  in an unethical off the record action sent hundreds of bodies of the deceased Cuban exiles to provide the material for the project as for some unknown reason only the bodies of combatants could be used for the project. The program kicked off but not with out setbacks and high costs, only one in out of every hundred combatants could be resurrected therefore of the two hundred or so corpses Cuba sent to the Soviets it only resulted in two Lazarus soldiers being created and of those two one of them went completely insane from the Resurrection process but the final one Reinier Ramirez was more or less mentally stable yet still in a delicate state of mind.

To prevent a total loss the Soviet Scientists worked on a method to mentally fortify their super soldier and ensure obedience, to do so they used the Soviet equivalent of Project MKUltra which according to now lost records was presumed to be 1,000% more effective than the best cases of their Western Counterpart. Project Lazar was a success after four extensive trial runs split between 5.5 years and programs (Альфа, Браво, Чарли, Дельта) Reinier Ramirez dubbed subject Del'Ta was the first perfected L-Soldier in the Soviet's arsenal, over the course of several decades they would train and strengthen subject Del'Ta's physical abilities and combat skill while increasing the ranks of L-Soldiers during the cold war.

A year after service Reinier Ramirez would undergo another special program to make him more combat capable, this procedure involved the amputation of his right arm with a piece of a Ancient Humanity technology one rumored to have been created by a lost colony that was closely associated with the Kingdom of Atlantis. This artifact was a highly advanced prosthetic arm that was widely considered to be indestructible to the Soviet Scientists at the time especially so after several nuclear weapons were tested on it to see its limits and not a single one of the direct contact nuclear explosions caused the slightest damage or malformation on it, only through several minute long submersion of liquid nitrogen did they discover they can mold the shape and internals of this artifact. After some tinkering and crude modifications they unlocked the objects function.

The "Arm" was a command module that connected to the hosts nervous system and allowed them to command the archaic nano-machines within, this lost technology was actually a form of nanotechnology created numerable centuries before it was even publicly theorized to the masses. These ancient microscopic machines would grant Ramirez a limited ability to manipulate matter on the microscopic level as it was used by its predecessors originally as a terraforming device that converted water into land for the citizens of Atlantis but unfortunately these prosthetic arms were not produced in a large of enough quantity to prevent its fall. Upon the success of the augmented limb installed into Ramirez he was granted the code name of "Iron Lord" by senior Soviet Officials and promoted to be a leading commander of a detachment of L-Soldiers which now numbered 50.

The Iron lord would participate in approximately 1,546 combat missions with a success rate of 99% but the scale of these missions varied from; single operative missions designed for a Russian spy but beyond a normal operative's ability to function, high profile assassinations,  protecting senior soviet officials, temporary joint operations with other special forces internationally, etc. When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991 his previous handler sold the Iron Lord and his brethren to the Russian crime syndicates and it was for the next several years that the Iron Lord would serve as muscle for the mafia before he was finally freed from their indoctrination based control due to the efforts of a certain vigilante.

Now the Iron Lord is his own man to make his own decisions, he works presently as a security contractor for Blue Shield Inc. but dabbles in other fields as a Lone Wanderer trying to forget deeds done that until this day eats at his psyche with regret.
