However when he came into his psychic powers that all changed as he was not prepared for it and couldn't control his abilities driving him mad. His abilities led to him finding out who his father was and ho his grandfather was. He decided he wasn't revenge on his grandfather and all those involved with his father's downfall.

Powers: Jack a telepath of some skill. Normally though all he is capable of is telepathic communication and reading surface thoughts. His telepathy is different from most though whenever he is near another psychic he can automatically steal their psychic power and add it to his own leaving them powerless until they can get away from him. This doesn't give him access to their powers or anything just make his own powers stronger by their level of power. Also even if a psychic is not close to him but they try to use their powers on him he will automatically take their power from them before they can even do anything leaving them powerless for about an hour and give him a power up for about the same amount of time. If he gets close enough for his normal psychic power steal to work then he can continue to keep their power after the time limit uninterrupted until they can escape.

Character location/Home: Gotham City

Team: Independent Vigilante

Backstory: Jason Todd had been hurt in badly in a fight and needed trained medical attention. He snuck into a hospital to get it even if he had to force someone to give it to him. He found Jillian who thought he was a real hero and freely gave him medical help. Jason kept coming back to her when he was hurt because she made it easy to get good medical attention. She fell in love with him under the Florence Nightingale effect. She wanted move and Jason wanted to keep using her for medical help and if she wanted to make things more fun fine.

This continued for a while until Jillian found out she was pregnant. In a moment of mental clarity Jason decided that he had to stop this and that it would be better if he stopped involvement in both of their lives. He told her that he couldn't see her any more as it wouldn't be safe for either her or the baby but left her with a way to get in contact with him if it was absolutely necessary.

Jillian raised Marcus by herself and never said much about his dad other than that he was a good man.

Everything would change for Marcus when he was eight while coming back home from a night out. A shoot out between the police and some gang members drove past them and a stray bullet hit his mom killing her in front of him. He was mentally a wreck and angry at everything. Jillian's will stated that Marcus's father should be contacted and be given custody of Marcus if he should want it. Jason wasn't going to leave his kid alone in the world if he could help it like he had been since Marcus had no other family. He also worked hard to make sure no one found out about Marcus since he was fairly sure that if anyone in the superhuman community found out about him raising Marcus they would take him away and he didn’t want that to happen.

He also saw an opportunity to train him to be the best like him. For years he brutally trained Marcus in how to fight, shoot, and set up traps. While he had no natural skill for most of it he was a brilliant planner. Jason also taught him everything he knew about the Bat Family and their villains.

However things took another dramatic change in Marcus's life when Donna met up with Jason again and she found out he had a kid and what he was doing with him. Instead of trying to take Marcus away from Jason she got Jason to shift the focus of his training to something less vengeful and deadly figuring that it was probably best for both of them to stay together and kept Marcus a secret for several years before finally telling Dick about him.

Dick wasn't sure what to think about this for a while. When he finally went to confront Jason about this he saw that Donna was probably right about them being good for each other. Still wanting to keep a better eye on Marcus, he suggested Marcus join the Teen Titans as a better way to socialize and do more as a hero.

While still violent for a hero he tones himself down around the others for their sakes and is a bit more willing to make the hard decisions and choices.


How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: Joining the Teen Titans.

What are you planning to do with this character?: Teen Titans stuff.

What do you want to see happen with this character?: I would like to see Marcus repay his dad’s debt to Talia al Ghul for bring his dad back from the brink. It would also be neat to do some bat family stuff with him as well.

Marcus had broken up a hard drug operation in Gotham earlier this week. He had broken into where they were based and taken care of the filthy, rotten crooks inside.  However the boss had gotten away in the chaos of the shootout. He was not happy about that and had been tracking him across the country like a bloodhound and had finally caught up to him in Star City.

He wanted to just head in there and shoot the place up but that wasn’t smart. This wasn’t his turf and guy was a clever son of a bitch. So he was doing a quick stake out before he made his entrance on the building across the street.
