Scipio, or Cornell Scipio is a Red Flag operative with a strong tactical sense and a pyrotechnic alpha ability.

Events

Season 2

Wake Up Call

Cornell is shown as a prisoner of Building 7 at Binghamton before being released by Megan Bates. He helped organize the subsequent revolt, took hostages, and directed the escape of most of the alphas. After escaping, he meets with Stanton Parish in Queens during an attack on a freight train.

Powers and Abilities

When Cornell's adrenal glands are in heavy use, his sweat produces chemicals that when combined with considerable friction (usually rubbing his hands together) produce combustion. Since he shows no clear pain during this process, presumably his body produces some sort of buffering material or is super-resistant to heat.

Trivia

  • Cornell's last name is the same as the Roman general who defeated Hannibal in 202 BC.
