Ryan never fit in with the other children. He always seemed strange and aloof, and he seemed to like it that way. It was not until he was in his early teens that his telepathic abilities began to surface. Disturbed by the “voices” Ryan said he heard, his parents had him committed to a mental institution for treatment. He was freed from this institution a decade later when two posthumans broke into the facility to rescue another patient. Since then, Scanner has been on the run and on his own.
