Like the character,stats are good.But it could do with a somewhat more fleshed-out history to make him more interesting instead of your typical mutant-who's powers activated story.Just my opinion and I hope you don't mind. ;D

I've already got the history a little more fleshed out than that, I just didn't want to clutter the message with the story. Here goes: Arthur Martin was your typical high school jock. His father, an old wrestling star(The Olympic sort), had injured his back, making him incapable of virtually anything athletic. Growing up in Western North Carolina provided some interesting activities for Arthur to stay in top physical shape. Anything from hiking to river rafting was acceptable. Everything physical always seemed easy to him. Arthur was 16 when it started happening. His skin became tough and a slight green tinge was noticable. He became the top football star in the county. He began to become enraged quicky, it was passed off as a phase, as being a teenager. Drugs and booze became Arthur's main concern shortly there-after. His grades slipped and his athletics dropped until he was no longer the star. Seeing that he was on his way to becoming his father, a man he never wanted to be like, he enrolled in the Marines quicky after high-school. He was a good soldier, but the life wasn't for him. After five long years in the military, Arthur left for New York City. Walking to work one morning, he witnessed three thugs attacking an elderly woman, hassling her and making off with her purse. Arthur wasn't about to sit and watch, he started chasing the men. Getting close to one of them, he grabbed the man and threw him down. The man sprayed something in his face in the struggle. It stung like a thousand bee stings in Arthur's eyes and nose. Everything slowly faded into black. ... Waking up with a terrible headache, Arthur heard the screams of dozens of people. He looked around, but saw nothing. Everyone seemed to be screaming at him, running away in terror. His hands and the rest of his body had become covered with thick green scales. He looked around for a nearest escape out of the situation. Finding salvation in the sewers, what was once Arthur Martin is now Saurian of the Sewer! ----- cheesy, I know, but it's what happened
