He has seen it, and he has felt it. He's a former U.S Ranger and was apart of the Special Forces, and he used to believe in the American way and protecting freedom. That was before he saw war, real war. Now, he boasts a “Give a crap” Attitude, shoving his emotions down either with a swig of whiskey or with a beautiful woman. Mark boasts a certain charm and a rugged experience, while still being able to keep up a lighthearted facade and attitude. Few would be able to see past that he's a womanizing alcoholic. [/INDENT] [B]| POWER(S): |[/B] [INDENT][U]GRAVITY MANIPULATION[/U] [INDENT]Mark is able to alter the gravity of objects, areas and people. Due to him being hit by a experimental weapon stolen from Lexcorp while in a warzone during his tour. The beam activated his Metagene and transformed him. The only physical change one can see is that his iris turned from their blue color to a golden hue. His gravity manipulation allows him to alter the size, magnitude and frequency of the fields of gravity. This means he can increase the gravity in a area. He can affect however small area he wants, everything from a few inches of area to several meters and the magnitude of gravity he can increase is somewhere between ten and a thousand times the natural gravity. He can do the opposite as well, making things hundreds of times lighter than they are naturally supposed to be. He can alter the gravity for just a split second, allowing him to feign superhuman capabilities simply by making his opponents heavier or lighter in the middle of a fight. Mark is also fully capable of changing the pressure of something by changing the gravity affecting a certain object, while this ability is not fully utilizable because of Mark's own lack of scientific knowledge it is still a powerful application of his powers. [/INDENT] [U]POLAR SHIFTING:[/U] [INDENT]Mark is able to completely shift the polarity of the gravity applying to it, for instance forcing his opponents to fall to the roof and get pinned against it. Changing the polairty of something he can only do in a small area, like a room. As doing it in bigger areas would not only cause absolute chaos but lead to deadly consequences for Mark himself.[/INDENT] [U]SINGULARITY CREATION:[/U] [INDENT]Marcus is able to generate small singularities that can vary in strength, everything from making small pulls strong enough to pull a pen, to pulling a car in front of him with ease. He can make multiple singularities thus allowing him to make rather impressive strategic maneuvers. By generating singularities he can either pull or push objects towards him, he has trained himself in such a way that his right hand pulls, and his left pushes. This comes down to the balance of his powers in his brain halves. [/INDENT] [U]FLIGHT:[/U] [INDENT]Marcus can make himself fly by simply just repulsing himself from the surface of the earth. Flight was originally very difficult for Mark, he broke several bones falling on his face from a few meters in the air. Now after months of constant practice he can do it without straining himself at all. He can fly at speeds of about 100 km/h unaided as he cannot breath in the air while traveling that quickly, however his powers allows him to project himself and others much faster than he makes himself fly. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [B]| WEAKENESS(ES):|[/B] [INDENT]Humanity is Mark's biggest weakness. While his powers allows him to do a wide variety of things he is still a human. You shoot him in the leg and he will have a hole in his leg that will bleed, and unless treated he will die. Extended use of his powers will give him migraines and epileptic attacks. He also loses control over his powers while drunk which he is very often. He suffers from mild PTSD.[/INDENT] [B]| APPEARANCE: |[/B] [INDENT]Marcus stands at 6'1, he has tanned skin and brown hair. His eyes used to be blue but are ever since his powers awakened two years ago been a dull golden color that flares into a bright gold when he uses his powers. His features are rather defined and most would call him fairly handsome. He keeps his facial hair kept to a short stubble. He is usually seen wearing T-shirt and jeans and not dressing particularly fancy. He has a U.S Ranger Tattoo on his right arm.

Marcus is no exception. He was born in Star City to a lower middle-class family. His father was an alcoholic who smacked him, his mother and his younger sister, Lisa, around. He did petty crime as a teenager, stealing cars and picking pockets to be able to support his family, as his father did not, but instead spent whatever money he could scrap up on buying booze. When he was 17 he shipped off to join the army, it was something he was good at. Very good at, in fact. He joined the U.S Rangers and got the call sign “Idol” as the older soldiers in his squad claimed he had a pretty boy face, just like an idol the teens would be into. He worked hard and he got recognition. That is, till the battle that would change it all. It was a terrorist attack in the middle east that Mark's squad was called into dealing with. The terrorists had some new form of technology, a weapon that didn't shoot bullets but instead fired lasers. The beams tearing through his squadmates and killing them all instantly, Marcus was the last one to get hit, but him it didn't kill. Him it powered. It awakened something in him, something in his DNA. With a singularity powered blast he blew the enemies away and quickly killed them before the adrenaline settled. He butchered them with a smile on his face for what they had done to his friends, and when he came back to his senses and saw what it was he had done, he didn't want to live with himself anymore. But he was too much of a coward to end his own life, he was diagnosed with severe depression and sent back home to the states where he would develop his powers when he wasn't busy drinking, fighting other drunks or trying to flirt with women. He took on the codename “Quantum” when he on accident stumbled into a bank robbery and using his powers he subdued the criminals. His heroic acts sparked a light of hope inside of Marcus. That maybe he could believe again, to not feel so dead inside. He joined the Outsiders, the name sure did fit the group. [/INDENT] [B]| WHAT DO THEY BRING TO THE TEAM?: |[/B] [INDENT]Quantum allows his team to have complete control over the battlefield. He can dictate the terms of the battlefield, he can stop tanks from rolling with a flick of his hand, and he can throw a thug to the floor with a thought. He would serve a supportive role, using his abilities and tactical knowledge as a soldier to help the team decimate the opposition.[/INDENT] [B]| NOTES: |[/B] [INDENT] - His favorite drink is 7 month old whiskey out of Tennessee. Some would say it's fire water, he would say it's the drink that gives life. - He drives a new Shelby Mustang GT that he won in a game of poker a year back. - He is extensively trained in hand-to-hand, armed combat and strategic maneuvering. He carries a Colt 1911 on him at almost all times. He is also an excellent runner and scout thanks to his Ranger training. - He prefers Blondes over all else. - His favorite music is trashy pop. [/INDENT] [B]|Relationships:|[/B] [INDENT] [b]Fenrir:[/b] [i]Dogmeat? Psh. He's got the right spirit, but he ain't the brightest one in the brunch. Sometimes I swear he's more dog than man. Thinking that his fancy Justice League training makes him into a real hero. I suppose I do have to admit that I would rather have him on my side than against me in a fight.[/i] [b]Thorn:[/b] [i] He ain't Groot.[/i] [/INDENT]
