Complications:
Arrogant - Shaper was an expert in his field before the accident, and still has a bit of an ego when it comes to interacting with others.
Fame - The accident at CREST research facilities that gave Shaper his powers was pretty high profile, and it became near impossible to hide his identity.
Power Loss - Powers that can nullify tech eliminate the amplification from his gauntlets, reducing them to the base levels.
Responsibility - Many in the lab weren't as fortunate to make it out intact, and so Shaper views it his responsibility to do the good on behalf of those whom are no longer around.

Background: Bryan Matthews grew up a privileged life, as the son of a banker and fashion designer based out of Miami. Growing up, he tended to be on the more introverted side, convincing his father to help him build his own little basement lab where he could tinker with stuff. This later translated to Bryan graduating with honors from University of Miami dual majored in Biochemistry and Mechanical Engineering.

This talent led to his recruitment to the Tampa Bay based CREST research facility by the lab's head, Dr. William Parks. Dr. Parks was interested in the transformative nature of the Omnisphere that had been unearthed in the Gulf Coast. He believed that if mankind could tap into the energy of the sphere in a controlled manner, that it would be the end to nation-states warring over resources. While the Omnisphere itself had been taken way, Dr. Parks was able to get some data beforehand, particularly on the energy signatures that Omnisphere gave off. He hoped that by recreating the energy signatures in the lab, he could recreate the transformative effect the Omnisphere created. Bryan was recruited as a technician on this project, a key assistant to Dr. Parks.

Sadly, the utopian dream of Dr. Parks did not come to pass, as during the calibration set-up for the first test of the "Omni-transformation array device (O.T.A.D.), and an explosion happened in the lab that ruptured the device's containment, subjecting everyone present, and the building itself to the transformative effects. Bryan was one of the lucky ones, dug out of the rubble by rescue crews. Many of those staff members that weren't dead, had underwent hideous transformations.

It was days later that Bryan noticed the changes in himself. Able to create a phenomenon similar to the OTAD, Bryan could shape and alter matter that he touched. Capitalizing on his understanding of the OTAD, Bryan utilized his abilities to create mobile arm-based devices that could assist and expand his capabilities. It wasn't long before he was testing his powers in the field, trying to help in a disaster relief effort. Unfortunately, due to some leaked footage from the scene, his identity was outed. Instead of going into seclusion, Bryan has since embraced his identity as the hero Shaper, seeking to help those in need.

Shaper was created, designed and played by Tyler "DeusPravus" Hilton.
