Background

By the time that Lo Yet was recruited to be the first Rat of the Immortals, he had already killed a rat metamorphic uber. He had found that he could transform himself into a small rat. At this time, however, he did not know that in reality, he had mimicked the powers of the metamorph that he slew.

As the years went by, he found that he could imitate the powers and form of nearly any uber, but he kept this a secret and chose to continue to lead his teammates to believe that he could only become a rat. He found that he could do things in the guise of his teammates and cause them to take the blame for the things he did.

Through blackmail and coersion, he soon became politically powerful in the Communist Party, and in 1997 when the country was undergoing a change of face, he found out that his teammate (who was formerly Rooster and was now calling himself Red Star General) was planning to disband the Immortals, make a new Immortals team that would be media friendly, and form a team to watch the Immortals. Lo Yet, now calling himself Mask of the Revolution, ensured himself a spot on the team of watchers. One by one, he imitated all of the other original Immortal ubers (except for Rooster/Red Star General and Ox/Dominance) and caused either their dismissal or their execution. The non-uber Immortals were dismissed just to wipe the slate clean.

Personality

Conniving and ambitious, Lo Yet is typical of the top tier of the Communist Party. That he has superhuman powers just makes him all the more powerful. His favorite tactic is to either slay or subdue an uber then take that uber's place. In his new guise, he (or she, as may be) will carry out the mission (assigned or self-assigned). When successful, not only will the mission be complete, but the mimicked uber will take the blame.
Quote

"If you can't join 'em, beat em."
Powers

The Mask of the Revolution is an uber of ubers. He can imitate the powers of any uber from energy blaster to mentalist, from brick to speedster. When he imitates an uber, his appearance also changes to match.
Appearance

Lo Yet tries to appear as non-descript as possible, all the better for what he does. When not mimicking somoene, he will fit into the average attire of the locale whether it be a typical day laborer, an office worker, or a soldier.
