Grant Townes

Grant Townes (グラント・タウンズ) is a former mercenary and former adversary of Colton O'Neil/Arsenal. Originally a normal man with dreams to make North City better, the death of Becky Roache drove Grant to become an assassin looking to kill Colton, which he deemed responsible for Becky's death.

Injecting himself with a serum, he became the villain Deathshot, trying to cause as little damage as possible in his vengeance. Often in conflict with Colton, Grant was one of Colton's most dangerous foes. In their final battle, Deathshot seemingly killed Colton and retired the "Deathshot" persona, returning to his previous life.

Grant later returned to redeem himself by helping Sebastian Harper in his last assault on the Brotherhood.
