Doctor Mirko Kojic was travelling with his family across the notorious Snipers' Alley in Sarajevo during the conflict which resulted in the dissolution of Yugoslavia. His son, Ilijaz, and daughter-in-law, Nina, had convinced him to make the perilous journey to help one of their friends who was trapped on the other side of the river. Kojic protested and warned them against the journey, and pleaded for them to at at least wait for a NATO troop convoy so they could have some sort of protection. But his son called him a coward and so Kojic gave in to the demands of the young.

As they crossed the stretch of road that had been given the name 'Snipers' Alley', Kojic felt his heart beating so much faster than usual. He felt as if he were about to suffer a heart attack and clutched on to the little hands of his grandson all the tighter. The little boy Zlatko looked up to his grandfather's face with a hopeful smile... and that was when the shots rang out across the street.

Kojic felt his arm ripped backward and he fell to the ground, only to see his son and daughter-in-law fall to the street in splashes of blood. Zlatko, too, was shot down.

Kojic blinked, thinking he was dying. He looked to the hills which gave the snipers such a clear view of the street and he felt his body tense. His heart continued to pump harder and harder and his eyes seemed to glaze over. He pushed himself up with his hands and he was shot again by the sniper. But instead of falling down again, Kojic pulled himself up, realising that the bullets were bouncing off of his body and falling to the ground around him.

He turned his gaze to the mountains.

More shots rang out.

Kojic clenched his fists.

Years later, Kojic was still mourning his family but he had also developed an intense hatred for NATO who he blamed for not protecting them. On the day his ubergene had activated Doctor Kojic had laid waste to the section of Sarajevo as well as much of the hillside communities which were used by the snipers. Citizens were unsure whether to applaud him or fear him, but it was soon clear to them that Kojic was not going to bring about any kind of peace. He rampaged through the world taking his vengeance out on anyone who dared to stand in his way.

Over time he came to realise the flaws in his powers, especially that they were activated by adrenaline and that as an old man he was not capable of generating such rushes on his own. He turned to the laboratory where he developed a series of triggers, none of which gave him the results he needed, although such experiments did manage to further decay his sense of morality and his grasp on reality. He began using amphetamines to bring about the rush which would activate his strength and with the trigger in his control he continued his attacks on the world.

Doctor Kojic is known as a marauding psychopath as well as a nefarious 'evil genius' depending on the time of the year and his use of drugs. Sometimes he pursues scientific discoveries such as a way to harness his ubergene and affect other test subjects (mostly resulting in brainless monsters) while at other times he seems content to lay waste to cities and especially American interests.

Kojic's powers came to him very late in life and may have manifested themselves in different way had circumstances themselves been different. As it is, Kojic is able to channel his adrenaline into uberhuman strength. The more agitated or active he gets the more power he can wield. He has come to use amphetamines as a way to tap into this power so that he can control his transformation more readily. At his peak strength, Kojic can lift over 800 tons and is considered one of the strongest ubers on the planet. In this powered state, Kojic also possesses increased invulnerability to physical and energy attacks and regenerative powers.

However, in his natural state, Kojic is a frail man and has consistently been captured after his opponents have been able to moderate his adrenaline levels and de-power him - something that Kojic has found infuriating to say the least!

During his career, Kojic has sometimes used a dart gun which he engineered himself.  The darts are fired from a glove and can contain a variety of effects from a paralysing toxin to a deadly one, an explosive shell to razor sharp darts.

Doctor Kojic is a thin man in his seventies. He has very little hair on his head and his eyes have sunken into his head as if retreating from the pain and suffering he has witnessed. He tends to wear conventional clothing, including mismatched suits, oversized wool-lined jackets, pants and cardigans. When his strength manifests itself he inevitably tears his clothing although he does not seem to actually grow in stature, remaining in the physical form of an elderly man.
