Canon/Original: Canon
Name: Rex Matheson
Age: Around 31,
Species: Human,
Planet of Origin: Earth
Occupation: Member of Torchwood 3
Physical Description: About average height, with dark skin and short black hair. He is often seen wearing a suit of black over a white shirt.
Personality: Rex is curious and showed initiative to find answers when Miracle Day happened. He could get into trouble when he stepped into things he shouldn't have.
History: Matheson was talking with his colleague Esther Drummond on the phone when he was involved in a car crash. A pole from a nearby truck impaled him, passing through his chest. Matheson awoke in a hospital and learnt that the pole should have killed him. He began to look into Miracle Day, a phenomenon in which no human on Earth could die. Matheson's hunt for answers led him to Wales, where he sought out Gwen Cooper, a known member of the Torchwood Institute. On finding her, he collapsed due to his injuries and was taken her prisoner. Matheson freed himself and escaped with her, Rhys Williams and Jack Harkness as they were pursued by an armed helicopter. Afterwards, he informed the police of the teams whereabouts and had them extradited to America.
Upon arrival at Heathrow Airport, Matheson ordered Jack and Gwen taken aboard his plane, but Rhys and Anwen to be returned to Wales. Once in flight, Matheson discovered that he had underestimated Torchwood, as Jack's knowledge of possible causes of the Miracle were better than any he had heard. He also discovered that his sodium levels were low, due to Jack's vortex manipulator scanning him. Matheson later discovered that one of his fellow agents, Lyn Peterfield, had poisoned Jack against his orders. He then joined Gwen in trying to find a cure, which was eventually successful.
On landing back in America, Matheson was called by Esther, who informed him that the CIA had cleared out his office and turned on him. Realising his situation, Matheson chose to free Jack and Gwen and escape from the corrupt CIA agents and effectively become part of the Torchwood team.
Additional Medical Information: Like all humans on Earth during Miracle he is immune to most diseases and immortal to growing old.
