Last night had been lousy. Sure, they'd gotten the job done, but Jack's having to use the healing trick was always a bad sign, in his opinion. It shouldn't come to that, right in the field. Jack vaguely remembered a few other problems as well, though he couldn't pinpoint them right now. And now, he was waking up ... in one of the science labs. He shifted around trying to ascertain why, when he realized what he was wearing.
Jack did not often get back into his black-and-white-semi-checked Counterweight costume. Heck, it was weird just seeing it on himself as a grown man. But he had been doing a lot of sorcery last night, and some things just fell into place.
Well, time to change back into his fieldgear until he could get to his own room and change. "Costume off," he said quietly to himself. But nothing happened.

Player (nickname, handle)/ LJ:Kate
Character Name: Jack Power
Character LJ (if applicable): snarkfigher
Physical description (face, build, weight): 5'9, dark hair.
Age: 25
Birthday: January 3rd
PB: Milo Ventimiglia
Abilities:
Kymellian Sorcery(not magic; matter of translation): Jack wields the Counterweight powerset, controlling gravity in a fairly limited range around himself, and can stabilize severe injuries, heal his broken bones, etc. using the Healing Trick.
Others: Jack has SHIELD training in hand-to-hand fighting.
He has a bachelor's degree in Linguistics, minor in physics.
He speaks fluent English, Spanish, and Kymellian, decent French, Russian, and Zn'rxian. Capable of saving his own life in Mandarin and Shi'ar. Maybe.
Weaknesses and flaws: Otherwise human. Kymellian sorcery can be glitchy in moments of extreme stress. Pride and paranoia issues. Not a fair hand with weapons.
Character location/Home: Helicarrier
Alignment (villain, hero etc): Hero
Relatives (living/dead?): James and Margaret Power (parents, living) Alex Power (brother, living). Julie and Katie Power (sisters, living)
Backstory: At a very young age, Jack and his siblings were granted superhuman abilities by dying Kymellian sorcerer ("it's not magic! It's a translation issue!") Aelfyre Whitemane. The children both became the superheroes Power Pack and were drawn into the war between the Kymellians and the Snarks (name simplified for pronunciation and because Whitey was a litgeek).
Jack was originally the Mass Master, with density powers, but in the various switches had several others as well. He was always the most experimental of the siblings with his abilities, and the least afraid of their potentially lethal consequences (not unafraid; the thought of killing someone did freak him out. Just the least). This made him often considered the most dangerous. He was also the one of the Power siblings to work out how to do the healing trick without the cooperation of all four.
Once grown, Jack entered training in SHIELD, since it provided a chance to protect the world and an opportunity to travel while still having the transportation on hand to get back to his family quickly should Margaret Power's health start failing again.
What do you want to see happen with this character?: Shenanigans with S.H.I.E.L.D.

Agent Power was worried. Fury hadn't specified how long she'd be taking off for her injuries.
... and now they were all out of the good coffee.
Jack growled.
