He's got a seemingly permanent five o' clock shadow outside of costume. He's lithe, with the physique of a tennis player. Wears a diamond earring, in his right lobe. Some prison fighting scars on his torso: two entry wounds from a plastic shiv, one in his upper right shoulder blade, the other in his stomach next to his belly button. Two tattoos, one of a tennis ball his left peck and a tattoo cover up- an asteroid. (behind it is his ex girlfriends name) Civilian clothes are very much dressier than average. Always seen in some sort of floor length duster and matching leather shoes (one brown, one dusty black). Usually wears a sweater or sweater vest over a button up. His sleeves are sewn up into a rolled position (he did it himself). 5'11'' and kinda mad about it. Carries around an mp3 player, a notebook, and has a dumb phone. Wearing the ear piece for communication was nearly a deal breaker for the job, but they told him they'd buy him the best mp3 player so it could run the comms program instead of needing a smart phone. [color=7F00FF]Role at SDN:[/color] Hero - Phoenix Program [color=7F00FF]Background:[/color] He grew up into a family wealthy enough to get him into private school for high school, but was planning to go to a public college. He was of average intelligence, but was on the tennis and track teams. He'd tried to get into Boxing but his vigor was low. In 10th, he had a particularly competitive indoor tennis match, with his rival in the county. After trading a few barbs back and forth with a rival, they made a joke about how he had gotten lessons because of daddy's money since the last time he'd seen him (the kid was also wealthy). Jet was angry and hit the ball harder than normal, the yell he made was later used as proof of intent. For a brief moment, he wished the ball would hit him directly in the face. It did. Blood came spurting out of his nose, and he ended up with a skull fracture. He was booked and sent to prison for modifying a tennis ball in a match with intent to maim. There was no proof it had been him, but the tennis ball had gained mass inexplicably, nearly killing his opponent. He spent the next 5 years in prison, where his father completely disowned him since the 'devil had gotten him'. While his relationship with his dad was more quiet in his teen years, his father said he'd "learned some respect", before that his father used to come home from his banking job and beat Jet frequently. It was so bad, the school started asking his mother questions. His mom homeschooled him for the rest of 5th grade, and put him into a private academy for middle school. He still calls his mother once a month when his father is away on business. Since he got out, he spent some time running about with a few villains, generally stuff on contract for bigger bads. One of the people in this group was his ex girlfriend, when they broke up it broke up their group. This led him to be unable to find work, and he traded a petty charge to join SDN. He doesn't think they know about the rest (they don't.. mostly..?) [hider=Hero - Asteroid] [color=7F00FF]Appearance:[/color] Costume is primarily black, with a fabric that seems to shimmer like stars. It's got golden ornaments on the sides of his arms and legs, with a few smaller ones vertically on his body. They all point up to a convergence on his chest, which is supposed to look like the back flare of an asteroid. His headgear is meant to represent the actual asteroid, and is a black fabric with gold specs, and gray craters on it. The eye covering is black with golden edges. Bottoms of his feet are red, because one of the people in his old group needed to be able to see him when he launched up at the ceiling. [color=7F00FF]Powers:[/color] Gravity manipulation. Can't fly, but can fall with style. Can slow falling, and launch weight up to 500 pounds a [b]max [/b]of 50 ft into the air speed directly correlating to weight. This amount would overexert himself and would cause him to wind up gravely ill. Fights with liquid absorbing orbs (think Orbeez but they're biodegradable), that he adds mass to, and throws. He stores them in a series of compartments in his clothes on his arms. When he adds weight, they grow. He always keeps a tennis ball on him as last resort.

Leaves the easy to steal ones as fake so they don't come back for the real stuff. - Calls his mom once a month from anywhere but his own phone. If someone lets him use their phone, they can expect an inquiry from a private investigator hired by his father. - Cannot eat corn, but loves it. - Mends his own uniform using skills he picked up from prison.
