Description
Doctor Derek Bright is a founding member of Earth Corps. Codenamed Digger, Derek is an intellectual with a cool head and a dry sense of humor, Derek has refined tastes and is often the counter balance to hot tempered Earth Corps member Eddie Augutter.

Derek often reads self help books to improve himself and strives to better the technology he develops for Earth Corps. Standoffish and more at home underground or in a work shop Derek can be awkward around new people and seems snobbish.

Born and raised in Lancaster, Pennsylvania Bright was a prodigy that became interested in engineering. Becoming a mining engineer after college Derek was involved in a mining accident that permanently injured his legs.

Unable to walk without the aid of a cane and unable to physically work in the mines again Derek threw himself into designing exploration suits that would better improve mining safety as well as give him the means to physically go back to the work he loved.

With the help of his friend and coworker Eddie Augutter the suits were built and became the main exploration tool used by Earth Corps. Finally given the ability to physically explore the earth’s crust again Derek has become Earth Corps resident inventor and designs all of their advance technology and vehicles.

During a mission to rescue humans abducted by the Inhumanoids, Derek saved actress/stuntwoman Stella Blaze who was being held hostage by a smitten Tendril. Instantly attracted to the fiery redhead, Derek dated and quickly married Stella despite interference by an angry Tendril on their wedding day.

Doctor Bright’s exploration suit is an electrically powered, computer assisted exoskeleton that is equipped with several offensive weapons and grants its wearer superhuman strength and durability.

The exploration suit has been tested to withstand concussive force of 50 lbs of TNT. Fully insulated and pressure regulated, the suit can withstand external temperature variations from –100 degrees to 4000 degrees Fahrenheit.

The suit’s large grappling claws can act like shovels and are capable of lifting 500 lbs. The claw’s serrated edges can tear or claw through virtually any substance including solid bedrock. The claws can fold back onto the forearms of the suit allowing hydraulic robotic hands to slide into place with the same dexterity as human ones but with much greater strength.

The helmet is equipped with a thick vision optimization plate that adjusts to infrared in pitch black and can adjust instantaneously to any level of light including blinding sunlight.

The chest of the suit contains a high speed computer that analyzes electronic and electro-chemical data and transfers information to the wearer in real time and connects to the processor and synthesizer contained in the suit’s “belt” This allows the wearer to convert one compound into another making fabrication of materials needed in the field possible.
