Real Name: Jacob Jacoby

False ID Name: Donald Pleasantson (The Elusive M)

Nationality: British

Age: 31

Height: 6'6"
 
Weight: 245 lbs

Appearance: Grey and white suit pictured above when "on duty"; otherwise looks like a fairly unassuming, though muscular, man with red hair and brown eyes.  Often fidgets as though he's impatient, even when he isn't.

Other Appearance: A very square face with two missing front teeth.  It should be noted that no one could figure out what the prominent M on his belt represented.

Superpowers: Control of psychic forcefields.  The psychic energy manifests as a clear fluidic substance, like looking through water.  He can fashion simple items out of it, like keys or needles, but no complex machines or anything of that nature.  He can surround his body with the fields for minor boosts to his strength and endurance, and is also able to "shoot" projectiles made from the same fields.

Skills: Is somewhat fluent in French, though is obviously not a native speaker.  He also has simple lockpicking skills and is very good at surviving with meager supplies (scavenging, fashioning clothing, etc.)

Personality: Seems somewhat neurotic, almost completely unable to control impulse decisions when he feels [i]justice![/i] must be dealt, unless he knows for sure that self-control will serve a greater good.  He's very proud of himself even though he prefers to be seen as humble.  Doesn't seem to comprehend that morality is more than black-and-white.

History: Jacob Jacoby (which is almost certainly a fake name) has been plaguing the greater London area for some weeks after the bombings began, seemingly thinking himself the best authority to dole out [i]justice![/i] in the chaos that ensued.  He did more to terrify the populace than anything, though some small degree of good came out of his efforts.  Evidently at some point he figured he would do more good on the front and applied -- fully costumed -- for the British army.  He was arrested on the spot.  But word of his abilities reached Maria Bianco after he demonstrated them in a failed escape attempt..  He's something a loose canon; not so much in that his loyalty to Britain is in question, and more that his "moral outbursts" could jeopardize more delicate missions.  Still, with someone around to reign him in from time to time he could prove a valuable ally.

Equipment: Cigarettes, assorted candies, a flask of whiskey, probably all for trade.  He also brought his M belt buckle along with him, though the rest of the outfit had to stay behind for obvious reasons.

Any good?  I hope I'm not being too flamboyant with this, I'm going for a sort of golden age superhero here like you would see from comics in the time period.
