Personal history

The Man in the pond is more of a scary story, primarily in the off the road villages of the world. The thing that scratches in the back of your mind when you see a face in the water that isn't yours. The monster that lures you away and returns you as a shadow with a smile. Nobody can actually pinpoint in what part of the world the legend came from. But there is depictions of him in relics dug up from old burial sites all over the world. Always showing him near or inside a body of water.

He's seemingly stepped out of the shadows. Becoming a lot more interested in heroes these days and trying to keep up with the times. He has even named himself as Reflection to a few, but still The Pond Man to most. He is a sweet talker, being able to empathize with people upon seeing them. Tapping into veins of emotion to exploit them into doing what he wants.
