Original Game: Metal Gear Solid Tretij Rebenok, codename Psycho Mantis, is an incredibly powerful psychic. He has frequently claimed to be the most powerful practitioner of psychokinesis in the world, and few would argue that claim. His powers manifested at a young age, driving him insane with the influx of negative feelings from the people around him. He ended up wearing a specialized gas mask in order to prevent other peoples emotions and thoughts from entering his head. After setting his home village ablaze, Mantis was taken to a research facility. Despite loathing the scientists, he appreciated the chance to hone his powers. Once he was freed from the facility due to suspicious circumstances involving another fire, Mantis became a freelance spy, offering his services to the highest bidder. He gradually became disgusted with the whole of humanity, but was simultaneously drawn to extreme negative emotions. His power and his misanthropy brought him into contact with Alma and Alessa, eventually becoming Alma's de facto champion. What exactly his 'queen' wants, he doesn't particularly care...as long as he gets the chance to hurt and kill...
