[h2][color=DodgerBlue]Name:[/color][/h2]Mercer Blaine

[h2][color=DodgerBlue]Age:[/color][/h2]26

[h2][color=DodgerBlue]Sex:[/color][/h2]Male

[h2][color=DodgerBlue]Description:[/color][/h2]Mercer is a tall young man. Standing at 6'4" and 205, he lacks the muscular definition to be deemed intimidating. In fact his height is the only "intimidating" thing about him. He meets the eye as a run-of-the-mill twenty-something, complete with coffee-addiction and all. His hair is always cleaned, well-kept, and styled. He maintains a trimmed stubble on his jaw, though he rarely grows his facial hair out. Style-wise, Mercer often wears muted or dark colors (black, blue, gray, maroon, etc). He only wears pants, never shorts, and usually sports a jacket of some kind, often his favorite denim and wool jacket.
 
[h2][color=DodgerBlue]Power:[/color][/h2]Mercer has the power to teleport from one location to another. Upon activation, himself and everything within a two foot radius is pulled into dimensional tear of sorts, and is spit back out of the other end of the rift. Mercer can choose where the other side of the rift appears and which direction he is ejected. When a Mercer teleports, he leaves behind a dimensional tear that lasts for about five seconds. This means that any one can enter the rift and appear through the same exit. Another potential flaw is that the portal sends an object out of it at the same velocity at which it enter. For instance, if he fell from a high place and teleported himself away, he would shoot out at his destination at the same speed he was falling.

Mercer's abilities spawn from his deepest desire: escape. He wants to escape his circumstances and seek a better life, he desires to travel and see the world, he desires never to be trapped again. 

[h2][color=DodgerBlue]Brief history:[/color][/h2]
Mercer Blaine was born and raised in Los Angeles California to his mother, a restaurant manager, and his father, an aspiring film director. His family was never wealthy, as his mother made less than average pay and his father's film career never really took off. He went to school and played sports like any other kid in elementary, but his high school life changed him forever.

His father, though he was a good man, fell into an affair with a co-worker. Though his dad tried to cut the affair off and repair his family, Mercer's mom wanted a divorce. His parents split up and he and his mom moved to Nashville, Tennessee with his grandparents. Though he miss LA, Nashville suited him well. It was the center of the "hip" culture scene, littered with coffee shops, music venues, and record stores. He worked most of his life at a coffee shop downtown, but always aspired to become a music producer. He taught himself to use sound technology, programs like Logic Pro and Abelton. His unmotivated personality got in the way, however. He always found himself working on a project, quitting, getting pissed at himself, and drinking himself to sleep that night. While he isn't an alcoholic, in his lower points, he quite commonly drowns his sorrow with drink.
