Lee-Lee the Polecat

When robots invaded the little witching village of Lamorna, roboticizing everyone they could find, Liam escaped into the forest with a handful of other children, including his best friend Annie. Orphaned, they survived as best they could.

One day they found some abandoned instruments. Liam and Annie took the guitars and taught themselves how to play.

Around the age of 15, a record label signed him and he moved to the city. He became an instant hit and plunged into a whirlwind life of fame, tours and showbiz. He worked hard, and he partied hard, but it didn't make him happy.

He was 24 when his sister, Morgan, returned to him as a robot with her free will restored. Because of his showbiz life, he struggled to find time to spend with her.

A few months later, Liam went for a walk and a cyborg jumped out and punched him in the face. It was Suzannah, who had just escaped from Empire territory. She was terrified. Liam sang to her to calm her then took her to a medical facility for cyborgs. While there, he saw many sick cyborgs. The pain and suffering he saw made him question his own life choices and he decided to leave his record label and go back to live in the forest.

Liam went with his sister to live in the village of Calenik deep in the heart of the forest and tried to piece together the scraps of his life.

His sister was de-roboticized but soon became sick. Liam drove her to the hospital but his car broke down. His sister was dying, so in desperation he summoned a demon from the underworld and struck a deal with the demon to save his sister's life. Liam and Morgan spent time in the underworld (also known as Hell) paying for their end of the deal. On their return, the demon bit Liam, thus establishing a permanant link to him, and can now appear in his presence whenever she likes. She enjoys antagonizing him and often threatens to eat his eyes.

Liam returned to his forest home with Morgan and again started putting his life back together. He wrote new songs, and when he was ready, he gathered his old band and embarked on a comeback tour.

They played a show with several thousand people, then robots gatecrashed and went around abducting fans. Liam used the sound system to make a high pitched noise that shattered many robots, enabling thousands of fans to escape, but he and a handful of others were captured and sent to a processing area for roboticization. In desperation, Liam called his demon, who helped him and the other captives escape. On his way out, an automatic door fell down on him and sliced off his tail.

His near-death experience gave him a new sense of purpose - and he wanted to make up for all the years he'd wasted partying. Once he'd recovered, Liam set up the Sunshine charity with Suzannah to care for orphaned cyborg children.

Some years later, another demon appeared to him. He showed Liam a glimpse of the future. Eggman's robots would conquer the world and everyone Liam knew and loved would die. The demon offered Liam the chance to prevent this, and Liam agreed. He received otherworldly powers, including the ability to pause, speed up or slow down time within a bubble. Using this ability he has honed his skills and rapidly become one of the most powerful mages of the dark arts ever known.
