Bryant was born and raised in Sealand. At a very young age, he started to feel very ill, and have intense headaches. Eventually his parents called for a helicopter to airlift them to Ipswich hospital, where Bryant was diagnosed with a brain tumour. He needed brain surgery, and during the operation an experimental electro-cutting tool was used. The surgeons did not realise at the time, but the new tool, shorted out a part of his brain, speeding up all the processes in the motor cortex. This remained totally undetected until his early teens. By this time, Bryant was in the National fencing team, and was a natural, undefeated. It was during the a fencing competition that his accelerated thoughts first manifested. His opposition's sabre was heading towards him, when it appeared to slow right down and Bryant could easily dodge it. As he looked up, he saw everyone around him was at the same slowed speed, and he was able to easily win. When the competition finished, his thoughts relaxed to a normal speed.

Eventually, Bryant was able to completely control his ability to change his thought speed, and used this to master as many martial arts as he could. Before long, he had black belts in most arts. Bryant also continued his interest in pirates, fuelled by his parents involvement in the pirate radio station. He regularly practiced with a cutlass, and perfected his marksmanship.

EPSAS's second member
Years later, Bryant was busy practicing his sword skills when he heard a distress call on his radio. It was a nearby oil rig calling for help. Finally Bryant had found a moment where he could display his honed skills. He immediately got himself on to his small boat, the "Jolly Roger" and headed straight over. He climbed up the rig to find Filch and Jackstone fighting Aviate. Aviate was losing, unable to fight off both of his adversaries. Bryant shot a bullet at one of Jackstone's origami projectiles, deflecting it from giving a killing blow to Aviate, and announcing his presence. Spotting his swords, Jackstone instantly recognised him as a worthy opponent fought him. She was able to disintegrate his cutlass, but eventually Filch and Jackstone were defeated.

Aviate introduced himself to Bryant and requested him to work alongside Aviate for the Government as EPSAS's second member. Bryant jumped at the chance and gave himself the name Cutlass. After 3 months of further training and refinement, Cutlass was allowed out into the field as Aviate's partner.


 * Powers                 = Accelerated Synapses and Neurones: Cutlass' thoughts can be accelerated, altering his perception of the passing of time. Cutlass can move and react much faster than the average human, meaning he can attack and formulate plans very quickly in battle.
 * Abilities              = Martial Artist: Cutlass' accelerated thoughts means that he has very quickly mastered almost all forms of combat.

Pirate: Cutlass is obsessed with Pirates, and is familiar with all their underhanded trickery and practices, as well as being an accomplished sailor. Cutlass is familiar with almost every knot imaginable.

Skilled Marksman: Cutlass is a highly skilled marksman, who's skill is exaggerated by his quick thoughts and movements, allowing him to hit any moving target.

Gifted Mathematician: Cutlass was a gifted mathematician before his accelerated neurones manifested. Now he is able to calculate complex trigonometry in his head and can easily work out trajectories when throwing and shooting.

Expert Tactician: He is a brilliant tactician capable of quickly formulating strategies and new plans should the situation change. This ability is made even more useful by his accelerated thoughts.

Skilled Pilot: Bryant was trained as a pilot of both Helicopters and airplanes while a citizen of Sealand. Cutlass has also been trained to pilot the Harrier and then Condor, and is the only person able to pilot the Condor at top-speed. Because of his accelerated thoughts, he is able to out-perform most experienced pilots and is very skilled in evasive manoeuvres, often able to get the craft out of trouble without having to engage enemy crafts.
 * Strength               = PHMx1 PHSx10 Cutlass possesses the peak human strength of a man that has intense physical workouts.
 * Weaknesses             = Susceptible to losing concentration, and therefore his thought acceleration, if injured or receives an impact to the head.


 * Equipment              = Kinetic boots: Scott has designed Cutlass a pair of boots that can be charged with kinetic energy, enabling him to jump great heights and distances. Cutlass is the only person able to control the boots because of how unstable such a force makes the human body. The kinetic boots can also invert kinetic energy, allowing Cutlass to 'bounce' when landing feet first.

Rope and hook: Cutlass keeps a long rope and anchor-like hook in his coat. He is able to use this to swing great distances as well as drag large objects towards him. His accuracy in throwing the hook is second to none, even able to hook on to fast moving objects. The rope is reinforced with kevlar and steel fibres, making it very difficult to snap, and is able to hold a weight of up to 100 tonnes. The rope also houses an electronic cable used to control the sheathing of the barbs on the hook.

"Treasure" map: Cutlass has a tablet computer built on an experimental electronic paper. He is able to roll this up and keep it in his pocket. The computer has built in GPS hence being referred to as a "treasure" map.

Enhanced Trenchcoat: Scott has enhanced Cutlass' trenchcoat to reduce the gravity energy acting upon it, this allows him to almost glide short distances, and certainly prevents injury from falling from great heights. Cutlass weaved kevlar and steel fibre into the trench coat giving him some protection from projectiles and blades.


 * Transportation         = Cutlass owns a small boat he calls "The Jolly Roger." As a member of EPSAS, he is the team's main pilot of the Condor
 * Weapons                = Cutlasses, Swords, Daggers, Philadelphia Derringer, throwing knives, .10 shotgun with rubber pellets, .45 desert eagle with titanium tipped bullets.
