Story: 59 wasn't born the way he is today. He and his 20 year old sister were in a nasty hit and run when he was 13 years old, putting both into comas. His parents continued to try to revive them for 5 years before finally deciding to take them both off of life support.
Before the hospital could pull the plug, a nearby laboratory asked for permission to keep the boy on life support and experiment on his body. The hospital said yes. The scientists found that the cause of the coma was severe cranial trauma. They attempted to merge his brain with a injured crow's to bring the dead cells back to life. It was successful, but as you can see, not without side effects. 59 now has wings, one bird-like foot, and a feathery tail.
When he awoke from the surgery, he had no recollection of who he was or what had happened to him. They explained what they had done, and his new appendages. Seeing the "freak" he had become, 59 became very reclusive and depressed for a few weeks. When he asked if he could go home, they told him that he would be a permanent resident at the lab. Not wanting to be their rat, he ran away and took shelter on the roof of an old warehouse in a neighboring town.

Fun Facts: --His name came from the last 2 digits of the number that was on his lab ID collar.
--His best friend is the 11 year old baker's daughter. She'll often bring him stale pastries at meal times.
--As you can imagine, people aren't very accepting of his bird nature. So he prefers to roam the city late at night.
--He can fly pretty well if he starts at a high point, but it takes massive amounts of effort to get himself off the ground because of his weight.
--When he ran away, all he had was his hospital gown. He stole his pants/boxers off of a clothesline on an apartment balcony. His shoe came from a pair tossed over a powerline. He saved spare change to buy himself the shirt.
--The shirt originally had long sleeves that covered all but the ends of his wings. (although it looked rather lumpy) It took him an hour to put on, and he planned on using it to hide his wings during the day. At night, he would shimmy out of it and fly around. This plan was destroyed when a cat startled him while he was wearing the shirt.
--His favorite passtime during daylight hours is people watching in the park. It makes him feel a bit melancholy, but he hopes that it will teach him to better interact with people.
--He speaks fluent crow.
--He'll eat anything. Anything.
