Shakespeare is a member of the H.A.R.D Corps (Harbinger Active Resistance Division) created by the Rising Spirit, a rival company to the Harbinger Foundation.  Their sole purpose is to hunt down and if necessary neutralize escaped or renegade psiots/Harbingers.

During The Harbinger wars he killed a few Psiots before being killed by friendly fire.

NB: In the original Valiant comics there was a white character also known as Shakespeare who was a member of the H.A.R.D Corps.
