Character Name: Mason Jeffries
Character LJ: got_the_touch
Physical description (face, build, weight): Scrappy, lean without really any muscle or fat, in his awkward semi-gangly stage, but very active and keeps in shape. Messy dirty blonde hair, blue eyes. More often than not found with grease stains and band-aids scattered over his exposed arms and legs.
Age: 15, rapidly approaching 16
PB: (If using one.) Hunter Parrish
Abilities: Telekinesis of moderate strength, tactile telekineses of a higher level. However, Mason is only able to affect 'processed' materials, as he defines it. Blown or forged glass, reforged or refined metals, plastics, and similar materials fall under his ability to control. Natural substances, such as uncarved wood or stone
Weaknesses and flaws: Mason has only normal mechanical and engineering knowledge of someone his age with his interests, limiting his ability to create constructs as complex as his father's. With practice, he can communicate to a limited extent with inanimate constructs such as door locks and simple motor vehicles. This use of his power is unreliable at present however.
Mason is an avid dirtbike rider and has a corresponding level of mechanical proficiency from maintaining his own bike.
Cannot verbally speak to females one on one or in very small groups.
Character location/Home: Ontario, Canada
Alignment (villain, hero etc): Hero in training
Relatives: Madison Jeffries (father, living), Lillian Crawley Jeffries (mother, living), Jordan Bochs (adopted brother, living)


Backstory: Born to Madison Jeffries and Lillian Crawley, Mason had a generally normal upbringing, Lillian having been very firm (finally) about Madison settling down and distancing himself from the super-heroing. He didn't have his father's smarts, but he was still drawn to mechanics, helped along in no small part by the arrival of his adoptive brother, Jordan Bochs. Mason was very shy at first, but common ground, namely dirtbikes and life-endangering sports, helped the boys connect. Quickly coming to adore his new older brother, Mason bonded well with Jordan.

Adolesence brought two surprises for Mason. First, his mutation. At first it was thought to be the same as his father's, but further use of it revealed the differentiation in what materials he could manipulate. How much they had been affected by mankind seemed to be the main factor. The other surprise, although it came on a few years earlier, was an apparently inability to talk to women one on one. Mason adapted to the powers through training, and the mutism through carrying a dry-erase board with him at all times.

Upon Jordan's acceptance into the Alpha Flight program, Mason applied as well, resolving to enter as soon as he was old enough.
