Background/History: As a child, Buddy idolized Mr. Incredible and even tried to become his sidekick, but was rejected as Mr. Incredilbe "works alone." Embittered but brilliant, Buddy built weapons, building a fortune, and saving the best for himself. He ended up building an amazing scheme to rid the world of its supers and become its foremost super himself, defeating a threat of his own devising. His plans were foiled by the Incredibles and he appeared to lose his life in a final confrontation with them.
Personality/Motivation: Syndrome is cold-hearted and entirely self-centered, having apparently lost touch with his humanity. His sole goal is the accumulation of power and ultimately glory as a perceived hero.
Quote: "I'm still geekin' out about it!"
"Who's super now?"
"Too late - 15 years too late."
Powers/Tactics: Syndrome is the classic mastermind, and relies entirely on his gadgets and weapons, believing that which he's built with his intellect is unqestionably in control and superior to any opponent.
