------------------------------

Personality: Anyone who knows Arthur would tell you that he's the guy who knows almost everything, even if he's never seen the subject before. He can have a bit of a short-temper at times; especially if it comes down to those who disrespect his work. He's not exactly the best when it comes to face-to-face confrontation and would rather stay hidden within the crowd when threaten. He tends to rely heavily on the logic of situations and follows his mind more than his heart. Though he does have his rather rare moments where he would joke along with others, he prefers to stick out on his own. He also likes to proclaim himself as one of the smartest man alive, next to Stark, of course.

Likes: His ants, coffee, teaching Quantum Physics, hardworkers, reading, fulfilling his purpose, and his family (at times)

Backstory: Arthur was adopted by Hope at a rather young age and soon after, it was discovered that he was a bit of a prodigy. The self-proclaimed "child genius" managed to graduate college at the ripe age of twelve with a degree in Physics as well as Mechanical engineering. A couple of months afterwards, Arthur accidentally stumbled upon Hank's old Ant-Man suit which seemed to be out of commission. Scrounging up whatever materials he had lying around, he worked hard on creating his own reconstruction of the suit.

Strengths: Arthur is highly intelligent and a master negotiator. Once building his own phone with global calling out of spare parts in his college dorm.

Catchphrase: "It's Professor. Dyne actually, don't forget next time."
