Bio
WWII & Powers
Carson was in World War II, where, after being hit by a nearby explosion, he awoke with the power to hear people's thoughts. Over the years, he learned to control and hone his ability. Using his own ability as a jumping-off point, Carson became fascinated by others who suffered similar fates and were given mystical powers. His research initially led him to embarrassment when, while attempting to help an individual who claimed to be able to turn invisible, he was left alone in a group of people and looked like a fool. After his incident, he kept his knowledge hidden permanently and took normal jobs to pay bills.
Hidden Room & Research
In the late 70's, Carson was shown a secret room within the Stinson Public Library by a friend, and after the death of his wife in 1983, he turned it into his new home for paranormal research. Carson took a night maintenance position to continue his reading on the paranormal.
Meeting Gravestone
In 1992, Carson found Gravestone creeping around the library trying to find information on Damien Quidd. He invited Gravestone to the hidden room and helped him find additional information regarding Quidd and how to kill him. After his initial help, Carson became friends with Gravestone and remained his go-to guy for all information about the unknown.
In 1996, Carson died mysteriously.
