His conjuration spells allow him to summon inanimate objects for utility purposes as well as weird weapons. His elemental powers allow him to shoot strangely colored balls of fire and bolts of weird shades of electricity. He is also able to disguise himself to blend in and deceive people by changing his looks through the use of magic. Finally he can create barriers of force for protection and is able to fly. The barriers can be broken if too much is applied against them.

Personality: Michael is a highly intelligent person, which is normal for magicians and his literacy is way above average. By age five he was reading Edgar Allen Poe and J.R.R. Tolkien. By age ten he had finished reading the English dictionary and all of Shakespeare's work. As a magician he has an incredible intuition and is incredible at finding knowledge. Seeking knowledge and solving problems are what he finds among the most interesting in life.

Being a student of the arcane teachings, Michael is more of a thinking and manipulator than a fighter. He prefers to deceive and disorientate his enemies rather than beat them down through sheer force. Magicians use the art of deception to keep others guessing and second guessing. That is why Michael is incredibly deceptive and good at fooling his foes. Even some of his allies have trouble seeing if he is telling the truth. He even has occasionally bragged about being able to fool even Wonder Woman's lasso of truth.

When it comes to heroism, Michael does what he feels is right and tries to use his magical powers to do some good, but that won't stop him from doing to occasional prank. Michael is a man with secrets and the secrets of his magical arts are what he considers most important to him and thus he refuses to talk about them. He is a believer that one's own prideful words about their abilities can lead to their downfall.

Politically Michael is a centrist who leans to the right. He considers himself a democratic capitalist and believes that the government shouldn't tax the working middle class for socialist agendas. He is a massive anti communist and believes in freedom of speech. Despite not being a religious man, Michael is a firm believer in respecting people's beliefs, but that won't stop him from telling a person that their religion is sick if he feels that it is. Michael is an individualist and hates the concept of collectivism, he believes that real freedom comes from the individual and not the collective.

Bio: Magic has run in his family for generations and for Michael his destiny was no different. Michael was born in Gotham City to a middle class family and had a fairly good childhood considering the bad reputation of the city he lived in. With his incredibly high literacy rate, Michael Blair was able to read an insane amount of books at a young age and his family brought him into the world of the arcane when he turned twelve years. They shared with him their family's secrets of magic and he started to learn the art of Weird Magic. His focus was on Illusions and Conjurations with a bit of elemental magic put in. 

His family was surprised at the speed of which he was able to learn and Michael's power grew greatly over his teen years. In this time frame he took the magician name Zorn and met other magic users like him such as the British Con-artist John Constantine and the amazingly powerful Tim Hunter. They introduced him to the more sinister side of the magical arts by battling demons and mad sorcerers to keep the world safe.

Being a magician, Michael had to juggle his secret life of battling supernatural and mundane threats with his normal life as an entertainer and showman. It was hard, but as a self employed entrepreneur, he found it easy to make his schedule. The only thing had problems with was the high taxes of the darn government put on the working middle class for their political agendas. 

Being a one man show, Michael never really thought about joining a team before, but when the disappearance of the Justice League happened and more mysterious disappearances happened after that, he decided that it would be better for business to help bring down the crime and try to find out what happened to the other heroes so that he wasn't stuck with doing more heroics. He is Zorn The Magician and with his magic he will bring wonder and terror to the battlefield.
