Emerson Davis was once an ordinary man, and archaeologist by profession and a veteran soldier he was content to live his life in pursuit of ancient Egyptian ruins. He was utterly fascinated by the beings of the Egyptian pantheon and after defending a dig site which was later discovered to be a former temple of the goddess Bast, he was approached by the Goddess Herself...in person no less. He was offered to opportunity to learn about the Egyptian gods firsthand as Bast's Scion. The offer was too good to turn down so he accepted. Bast has bestowed him great powers and the name "The Great Mau" the cat king. Mau possesses abilities inherent to all cats, Strength, Agility, Night vision, enhanced senses, and the ability to communicate with and command cats. Mau's armor is divine in nature and repairs itself each sunrise. Mau goes where Bast commands and defends her (and the other god's of Egypt when asked) temples on whatever world they may be. Mau has a few loyal followers on every world where cats exist even on Katara, and Heigara...he Cannot command sentient cats but he can "Enthrall" them. Mau dares not abuse his power as what the gods give they can surely take away. Mau is a deadly hand to hand fighter and his claws are considered highly magical for purposes of what they can affect. Mau has many weapons at his disposal both convention and not-so-conventional. He is familiar with P.R.I.D.E. and their leader Panterra and is not impressed with man's genetic dabbling, although secretly he is envious of the power they possess as it, to some degree, dwarfs his own. he is friendly towards them enough so that there is no ill will. Panterra and the others have a great respect for both Mau and bast though they bend their knee to neither.
