Biography
Luke has lived a pretty much normal life in Gotham, running from thieves and psychopaths, dodging bullets and what not. Luke has always been a smart kid, always playing video games and building anything electronic that he could get his hands on. Growing up in Gotham was very dangerous and his parents knew that, one of the ways to keep their son safe was to put him into a Martial Arts and that they did, the first few months were like hell to Luke but after his body had gotten used to it he was ok with it. One day after practice Luke and his friend were heading out home when they decided to take a shortcut through the park, what Luke didn't know was that in this park his whole life was about to change. While walking a man came from one of the many dark places and demanded that the two young boys gave him their money, Luke's friend being older did not think twice on fighting the man who did not seem to be armed, Luke in the other hand was not so aggressive, he knew that getting a gun in Gotham was not at all hard and if the man was robbing then he already had nothing to lose in life. In the middle of the skirmish right before Luke joined the fray to help his friend the man pulled a gun out and shot Luke's friend, at that moment Luke felt helpless and weak, all the training he had received had not prepared him this, as Luke watched his friend fall to to the ground, he did not know what to do other than run and that was what he did, run as fast as he could, for the next few weeks Luke didn't even walk out from his room, until he found out that being lost in the darkness of his room was not going to change anything.
Slowly Luke regained his lost life, he went back to the training even taking extra classes in Jujitsu, He knew that one day he would be able to help out in some way and that the training would help. The day that his simple life turned around was when he received a letter from Central City University, He had gotten a spot there, soon Luke moved to Central City to get his classes going. Now 19 he lives in the campus, gets his money from streaming his favorite games and has also created a way to help others, the story of Luke has just begun.

Releationship Explanation
[Weapon Information]
○ Blue Beetle Scarab: Presently bonded to Luke's spine, this symbiosis gives Luke access to the Scarab's powers whenever he chooses. The Scarab can, and will, use its powers of its own accord; Luke, however, can override the Scarab if need be. Should Luke fall prey to a mind-altering power, the Scarab will take control of the armor.
[Ability Information]
○ Shadow Demon Defense: When one of the Anti-Monitor's shadow demons attacked Ted Kord during the Crisis on Infinite Earths, the Scarab protected Ted from its killing touch, utterly destroying the creature.
○ Energy Absorption: The Scarab can absorb a blast of energy that would land a human in hospital.
○ Vibrational Frequency Manipulation: The Scarab was able to open the doorway to the Rock of Eternity, which lies outside time and space, for Ted Kord.
○ Independent Animation: The Scarab is able to move by itself for a little distance. It used this ability to attach itself to Jaime Reyes.
○ Flight: The Scarab can fly under its own power.
○ Pincer Blades: The Scarab's pincers can cut through metal.
○ Superhuman Strength: The Scarab's own strength is minimal. However, its armor grants its hosts enough strength to move small trucks.
○ Energy Blast: These manifested as lightning bolts which Dan typically shot from his fingers.
○ Temporal Flux Detection: The Scarab could detect changes in the timeline affecting the Blue Beetle legacy; for Dan, this manifested as a feeling of flux in the Beetles' shared power.
○ Artificial Intelligence: Normally, the Reach's command sentience parameters, stored in a Scarab's database, give a Scarab sentience and serve to make it obedient to the Reach. An infusion of magical energies sometime in the distant past altered the Scarab, denying the Reach control. When the Scarab's infiltrator mode was triggered, the Scarab was able to develop its sentience without being in service to the Reach. It also had the opportunity to access the programming of other Scarabs as well. As a result, the Scarab has its own mind, with full access to its own programming.
○ Symbiotic Synaptic Interface: he Scarab's nervous system is bonded to Luke's, letting the two share their thoughts and emotions. The Scarab communicates with Luke as a voice in his mind. No-one else can hear it.
○ Scarab Mindlink: The Scarab can mentally communicate with Scarabs that have not integrated with a host. It can also interface with Scarabs which have created full infiltrators, although this requires Jaime to breach the infiltrator's armor.
○ Tracking Systems: The Scarab can track anything which produces energy, be it biological, technological or mystical. It can track anyone Jaime met since it bonded with him, from at least seventy miles distant.
○ Scarab Sight: The Scarab can scan the people Jaime encounters, informing him of any major physical conditions (such as pregnancy). It can identify and scan metahumans. It can identify people related to those it's already encountered via genetic analysis.
The Scarab is able to identify thought-patterns, enabling it to see if something is sentient. It can identify matching energy signatures, letting it see if the energy patterns were developed from the same basis. It can also see extra-dimensional objects. It is continually aware of the electricity in the surrounding environment.
It can perceive magic, see how a magical effect can be dispelled, and see through magical concealment.
The Scarab's scans can cover at least a five mile square. It communicates the information it gleans to Jaime in a manner he can understand.
○ Temporal Flux Detection: The Scarab can detect changes in the timeline affecting the Blue Beetle legacy; to Jaime, this manifests as intense static.
○ Network Connection: The Scarab can establish a connection to communication systems, enabling Jaime to speak to the person on the other end.
○ Clothing Manifestation: The Scarab can create clothes for Luke, apparently from recycled waste and skin, which melt when he takes them off.
○ Concealment: The Scarab is capable of concealing itself from 21st century technology (though Skeets, from the 25th century, was able to find it). It can shut off cameras and microphones in its vicinity. The Scarab has blocked a magical attempt to probe it, lashing out at the person who tried.
○ Healing:
○ Host Reconfiguration: The Scarab can modify Jaime's body to a certain extent (e.g., offering to give him extra fingers), although just how far the modifications can go is unknown.
○ Blue Beetle Armor: The Scarab can create a distinctive suit of armor in response to Jaime's thoughts, or when it deems use of the armor necessary. Once the Scarab dispels the armor, it retracts back into Jaime's body.
○ Superhuman Agility:
○ Environmental Protection: The armor allows Jaime to survive in a variety of hazardous environments ranging from Earth orbit, to the timestream, to the Bleed. It can survive extreme temperature and pressure. It can survive the heat and impact of atmospheric re-entry without seeming damage, even when the earth around it has been turned to glass.
○ Armor Reconfiguration: The armor can reconfigure itself to create a wide array of tools and weapons, including an energy cannon, a sword and shield, a grappling hook, an energy blaster, claws, wings, and a set of large powered blades attached to the hands, over a foot in length, that can shear through tree trunks.
The armor's equipment is mutable to a certain extent, most noticeably in the wings; initially, they were composed of the same solid 'carapace' which comprises the rest of the suit, but later, they began manifesting themselves in the form of a colorless, translucent material. Whether this is because of changes in the suit's capabilities, or because Jaime intended the alteration, has not been made clear.
○ Partial Armor Manifestation: Jaime can manifest parts of the armor - like the energy blaster - without needing to manifest the whole suit.
○ Wing Shields: The armor can create a pair of wings, enabling Jaime to fly and hover. They can also double as shields, should the need arise.
○ Jet Propulsion: When in flight, the armor can manifest a 'jet engine', enabling Jaime to fly at greater speed, at the expense of close maneuverability.
○ Energy Manipulation: The Scarab can shape and manipulate the energy it stores for a variety of effects, including energy blasts, energy cocoons, small-scale solid constructs (shields, chains, etc.), and 3-D holograms. Its energy shields can block a Sinestro Corps ring's blasts.
○ Antagonist Adaptation: The armor can tailor its blasts for use against specific opponents (e.g., Kryptonite radiation against a Kryptonian, suppression blast against a mob). The blasts can penetrate a Green Lantern ring's shield. The armor can call up anti-magic effects against magical opponents. By the Scarab's own estimation, it can even develop countermeasures that can take on the Spectre.
○ Energy Bubble: The armor is able to create a temporary energy bubble around Jaime and/or people nearby. The bubble shields those inside from outside attacks, but prevents them from leaving. A Flash who tries to vibrate through it will find themselves blasted by the bubble.
○ Vibrational Frequency Manipulation: The Scarab can negate the vibrational frequencies of extra-dimensional objects, pulling them into this reality. The area of effect of this latter is unknown; it has been seen to affect objects at least the size of Brother Eye. According to the Reach, this should be impossible.
The Scarab can also shift Jaime out of phase with the universe, making him invisible and intangible to anything apart from Reach-tech.
○ Bleed Diving: Jaime can shift into the Bleed, the space that connects the various universes. He can utilize the Bleed's unique properties for various effects, such as instantaneous teleportation, or shifting back in time a few minutes to appear in more than one place simultaneously. At best, he has only enough energy to dive into the Bleed three times in quick succession.
○ Translation: The armor can translate Mother Box communication into a form comprehensible to Jaime.
○ Waste Disposal: While wearing the armor, Jaime finds that he doesn't need to go to the toilet, though he does still need rest.
[Weakness Information]
○ Green Lantern Corps: The Scarab sees the Green Lantern Corps as the 'enemy'. In Jaime's first few days as the Beetle, the Scarab did everything in its power to get him away from the Lanterns - up to and including shifting him outside the universe. As Jaime's experience with the Scarab's armor has developed, the Scarab has taken a more aggressive approach against the Lanterns, urging Jaime to kill them.
The Green Lantern rings, for their part, fear the Scarab, responding in different ways depending on their wielders (e.g. John Stewart's sparks, as if afraid, while Guy Gardner's induced what can only be described as a 'super-migraine', along with an intense desire to kill the Scarab's bearer).
○ Truce With Nature: The Scarab will not hurt nature, or the magical creatures thereof (beings who draw their power from the Green, for example), of its own volition.
○ Alien Sentience: The Scarab's sentience is distinctly alien; while it won't hurt /nature/, it has shown no such reluctance when it comes to humans, being willing to injure or kill them. Fortunately, Jaime has so far prevented it from killing anyone.
○ Reach Tech: The Scarab's armor can be breached by the weapons of other Scarabs. Equally, however, the Scarab is able to breach other Scarabs' armor.
Originally, the Scarab was unable to attack the Reach and their technology. Jaime overrode the Scarab's programming, 'reprogramming' it so that it was able to fight the Reach.
○ Magic: While the Scarab is aware of magic, it doesn't understand it. It's able to perceive, absorb, and disrupt magical energies, but little else. As a result, creatures of magic are often a significant challenge. The Scarab can't analyse certain mystical creatures, and so is unable to develop countermeasures for them. When faced with certain other mystical entities, such as the Spectre, the Scarab panics, offering Jaime ever more powerful weapons to take them on.
○ Magnetic Shielding: Strong magnetic fields block the Scarab's ability to track DNA.
○ Dispelling The Armor: Dispelling the armor originally caused Jaime intense pain. As time has passed, however, Jaime has found the process getting easier.
