Complications:
Responsibility - Osprey feels a strong need to maintain the heroic legacy of his mother, grandfather, and great-uncle. Part of this need had him agree to train his second cousin in the family business as his partner.
Power Loss - Gary's powers all come from devices, many of which are sizable. If he gets caught without his gear or cannot get to it, he's powerless.
Directionless Civilian - Osprey is his true self: Gary is a bit of a cipher.

Known Background: Often seen patroling the skies over Huron City, Ontario, Osprey is known to be the son of the heroine Ladyhawk, and, as such, the purported grandson of the British World War II hero known as the Raven. He began his crime-fighting career quietly, several months before la Chatte recruited him to be a part of the Knights of Justice. He has publicly stated that he believes his inexperience and attitude was a significant factor in the group's failure to gel. Acquitting himself well during the Algolian invasion and again during an onslaught of lycanthropes he was offered a spot with the Champions of Justice several times before he accepted during a recruitment drive some years ago.

Personality: Osprey is a professional hero. He knew from a young age that following in the family business and becoming a super hero is what he wanted to do and has worked hard to achieve his goal. His life as Gary Grant is less defined. His decison to get his Masters Degree was largely based on his not knowing what he wants to in his secret identity. His dedication to his heroic goals has made Osprey a rather serious fellow, but not as much as his reputation, gained with the KoJ, as a 'grumpy bird man' would seem to indicate. His attitudes towards crime fighting, instilled by his Legion family and friends, tend to be "old school." His high standards for himself still cause him a noticable amount of self-doubt.

Powers/Tactics: Osprey has no powers. His artificial wings are what allow him to fly. He is, however, very proficient at it. He is in incredible physical condition. He is trained in multiple forms of combat, and has adapted those techniques for fighting while in flight. He wears a pair of steel gauntlets, each fitted with an extremely sharp set of talons. A small jet engine attached to the harness allows him to fly at mach speeds. A transparent shield drops from his helmet when he activates his breathing apparatus.

Appearance: Osprey is 6 foot and weighs around 210 lbs. His uniform is dark brown and white and is dominated by the harness for his wings. Beneath his armoured clothing, there is the body of an incredible athlete. The beaked helmet conceals his dark hair and eyes.

Osprey was created, designed and played by Ken Hallaron.

If he's a 'grumpy birdman' why is he smiling?
