Franklin Delano Davers is a fictional character first seen in [[Brother Grimace]]'s [[It's All About Respect]]. A full Colonel in the United States Army and the leader of [[P.O.G.O.]] Group Ten, one of the supersecret parmilitary operations that are fielded by [[DELPHI]] for a number of purposes, Franklin is a former associate of [[Kyle Armalin]] as well as friend, but their friendship ended under unknown circumstances related to Kyle's refusal to force [[Trent Lane]] into joining DELPHI. Franklin seems to have a special status as a personal 'troubleshooter' for General [[Robert Bakeson]], in which he performs sensitive or distasteful tasks (such as providing information on Kyle's recuritment activities to [[Erin Chambers]], or sanctioning Brian Chambers because of his knowledge of DELPHI. (Brian survived, but with serious injuries and no knowledge of the program, thanks to Franklin placing a post-hypnotic suggestion in his mind that erased the information.)
 
A very handsome and well-groomed person, Franklin possesses the same metahuman powers that Kyle does as the result of a blood transfusion after being selected for "Project Nightbreed' status earlier in his career. (See [[Kyle Armalin]] entry.) However, unlike Kyle, Franklin posseses the ability to enhance his flight speed, and can achieve speeds of just over Mach1000 2MPH for several minutes before he becomes too fatigued to continue.
 
Prior to his transfer to DELPHI, Franklin was a member of Special Forces, completed his Ranger certifications, and spent two years during his captaincy in Special Services, where he was involved in a myriad of public-affairs and diplomatic duties. (He moved through the ranks with unusual speed because of the connections he has made in those circles, and is almost certain to rise to flag rank before the age of forty - an amazing feat for an officer involved with special operations.) He is an expert with small arms and explosives, and has an unnatural accuracy in the use of pistols. Franklin also has a preference for black tea from India, and is a ballroom dancer of professional skill.
