Speed is thought to be a guitarist that's a bit crazy. He can barely take care of himself and has been in many prisons and mental health facilities. Almost always he gets out. Somehow,he still can play the guitar very well and very fast, which is how he got the name Speed.
That's what is though to be true. Speed is a good guitarist and can play quite fast. He has been to prisons and mental health facilities and gets out fast. Not being able to take care of himself is false though. It is all an act. In reality, what he is is much more sinister.
Speed isn't a crazy guitarist. That is just a cover, a cover which makes no person suspect him and allows him to move around a lot. Speed is the number 1. Speed is the person in charge of the Ghost Cell. Speed is the leader of a terrorist group.
Alongside all of that, Speed was exposed to the Holy Grail in his past, milenia ago. To learn more about what happens with that, go to Tyrone Boone's page.
