Brief Backstory:
James was born in Austin Texas to a middle class family and from an early he had an interests in writing and doing journalism. At the age of twelve his love of radio shows developed and he wanted to have a radio show of his own when he grew up. Being his father’s son, James’ developed more conservative ideas and decided to base his radio talk show on his political opinions and support for political incorrectness. His show was named The Politically Incorrect Party and he mixed his opinions with his own style of comedy.
At the age of fifteen James began to suffer from migraines that would happen randomly at different times of the month and he regularly got eye sores. His trips to the doctor didn’t find any answers to his medical problems and his physicals showed that his body seemed to be fine, it was a mystery until his powers finally activated. One day while on his way home from high school, James saw a mugging happening and wanted step in and stop it, but then his migraines started up and he couldn’t focus on trying to stop the mugging.
His frustration with his condition caused him to mentally lash out in anger and that’s when his eyes glowed bright blue and shot out a beam of ice that froze the mugger’s legs, stopping him. After his powers activated, his migraines and eye sores only happened when he used his powers for too long and it would take him some time to learn how to control his metahuman abilities.
After graduating high school, James moved out of Austin Texas and went to collage in New Rivière City. The city was interesting, but it had its problems. After collage he went into the radio business and started his talk show. As for his powers he had discovered the other elements that he could fire out of his eyes and only used them when he found them necessary. In case of the need to fight, James trained in boxing and karate when he was younger and kept up with it to keep himself practiced in case the need for it arrived.
Despite his powers, James tries to live a normal life as a radio talk show host preaching against political correctness and the subjugation of free speech. Reading a bit of comics as kid gave James the idea of having an alias in case the need arose and named himself Pulsar for secret identity purposes.
