View source for Quint "The Fist" Velasquez

== Overview ==

One of the many heroes who have lost their lives protecting [[Paragon City]], Quint "The Fist" Velasquez was a member of the [[Dawn Patrol]] who vanished while searching for the villains known as the [[Lost]].

== History ==

Quint "The Fist" Velasquez was a member of the Dawn Patrol around the time of the [[Rikti invasion]]. After the war, he agreed to help his friend [[Shannon Price]] (formerly the hero known as Starlight) in her investigation of a mysterious group known only as the Lost. The search led Quint and Price into the sewers and other dangerous areas beneath Paragon City. Unfortunately, they both vanished. The Dawn Patrol searched the sewers, but found no sign of the heroes.

Three months later, Price finally reappeared, badly injured and quite insane. She told stories of the Lost, a cult-like group that seemed to mutate its members over time. A bizarre, unidentified mutagen found in Price's own blood seemed to support her tales.

Much more recently, the Dawn Patrol's headquarters was attacked by several humanoid creatures believed to be members of the Lost. The group was being led by a "hulking beast" who was killed during the battle. His autopsy revealed some shocking information. Although his DNA, dental patterns, and fingerprints had all been mangled by the mutagen, together they provided enough information to identify the beast as having once been Quint Velasquez.

Because Quint was a member of the Dawn Patrol, it's likely that the moniker "The Fist" was simply a nickname. Aside from a handful of exceptions, most members of the Dawn Patrol use their common names rather than colorful superhero identities.
