Post #3- BioHeroes

 My birthday is July 3, so my part and chemical are the amygdala and acetylcholine. My hero would be The Fearmonger, and his real name is Isaiah. He grew up in an average middle-class family and generally was the poster boy for a good son and student. However, he held a dark secret: every night, he became haunted by Night Mares, gloomy horses with transformative powers that allow them to morph into any fear or negative experience their victim has. Every hour of moonlight became a battle for Isaiah to overcome these horses, and one night, he managed to tame them. He was selected randomly by the Night Mares as a candidate to become the next Fearmonger, and he succeeded. 

With his newfound powers, he vows to abandon his picturesque life and fight crime in his wartorn country of Taiwan in the year 2293. With this control over the Night Mares, he can go into criminals' minds by metamorphosing into a spirit form (physical body leaves tangible form) and riding the horses- there is no escaping from them as he and the horses are invisible, can fly, and travel through solid objects. In this spirit form, The Fearmonger's acetylcholine levels sharply increase, allowing him to have extremely heightened memory, cognitive perception, intelligence, and senses to accurately find his victim's fears (there is also some magic and spiritual stuff involved). Once he finds the fear, the neigh of the Night Mares enhances The Fearmonger's amygdala, and once this process happens, he can transmit that amygdala enhancement to his victim. He and the horses then become the fear or bad memory as almost an orchestrated act. This precise fear coupled with increased sensitivity to and severity of the fear emotion causes mental torture to the criminal. This gives law enforcement a lot of time to apprehend the criminal.
