Zebra Hybrid. He is a Lieutenant in the Los Angeles Police Department. When he fought in a war while still under MAPPO's control, Trench lost his eye to a piece of shrapnel, and he stuck a burning stick into the wound to cauterize it. His experiences and the horrors he has witnessed have caused him to see the world in black-and-white, making him appear ruthless and unfeeling in some cases he works on, and having no qualms with collateral damage in his work as a police officer. However, after Promethean's attempted coup using their Hyena Transgenics, many of which Trench killed (and enjoyed doing it) he becomes so disturbed by his enjoyment of killing that he decides to go out drinking while planning to turn in his badge the next day. He is slipped a cocktail of hallucinogenics from a woman named Lindy Lund, the twin sister of a drug-dealer Trench killed, and very nearly dies in the car-chase that ensued. In the end, Lund is arrested and Trench survives his near-death experience.
