Physical Description
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Hetero
Ethnicity: Scots-Irish American
Height: 6'
Weight: 150 lbs.
Eye Colour: Green
Hair Colour: Dark Brown
General Appearance: Jay is just a touch over average height with an average weight for his height. This does give him an athletic appearance, but one that is a bit on the lean side. He has begun doing exercises to try and move into a more toned physique, but the process has been a bit slow.

As a mover, Jay normally wears a company T-shirt and jeans. Off work, it is more tees, jeans, sweatpants, and shorts. He takes every opportunity to wear casual, comfortable clothes. Coming from an upper middle class background, however, Jay knows how to dress up appropriately for each occasion and has the type of clothing needed in his closet.

Like his grandfather, the original Dr. X, Jay wears the black mask and fedora. The exception is that instead of the double-breasted suit and trenchcoat, Jay wears a black bodysuit instead. As Dr. X, Jay tries to keep his movements confident and sleek.

[center]Personality & History[/center]

Personality: Jay is like a slow burning fire. All warm and comfy and gently paced, but becoming a white hot flame of intensity if fueled in the wrong way. His default demeanor is mellow and thoughtful with a leaning toward good natured respect and friendliness. He considers himself smart, funny, and somewhat charming without being arrogant. Mostly a pragmatist, but venturing into the cynical easily enough.

Jay wants to live up to the Dr. X name, so he likes to come off as the tough, ninja-like scrapper type, but he has found it very easy to use his telekinesis in something of a trickster role. He has also learned to banter with his opponents when needed, to both distract them and annoy them into a mistake.

History: Sandstone. It is a name known and trusted by many companies because Sandstone specialized in business solutions. This is the family business and has been so for three generations. Jay has just chosen to exclude himself, allowing his younger brother Gabriel to take the reigns.

Jay Arthur Sandstone II, Arthur, has been a good father and an even better business manager. But that is his passion, not the passion of his oldest son Jay. Jay wants to be more like his grandfather, Jay Arthur, had been before he founded Sandstone. Jay Arthur was one of the first to rise thanks to the Parawave. He was the mystery man known as Dr. X, and he was grand. That is the life that Jay desires.

It took many years of rebellion against the role his family perceived for him, and the inner rebellion that said that taking on the mantle of Dr. X was a pipe dream. But after drifting through his late teens and early twenties, Jay used his life savings to get settled in a place in the Marble Hills neighborhood of New York City and he is ready to bring the name of Dr. X to a greater glory than ever before. And live a "grand" life.

It was the discovery of Jay's own powers that had ultimately made the difference. At 18, the powers had suddenly manifested and if Jay hadn't been in a cycle of partying and drug use at the time, his path might have been clearer. But the partying had caused him to flunk out of college, and his guilt at that had kept him burying his problems in bottles and pills for some time longer.

It was probably his anger at himself as well as those who Jay perceived as the bad guys of the world that provided the tipping point. Stumbling home wasted through a dark alley, Jay had run into the punks robbing and trying to molest the young woman. It had felt good to turn loose his fists and his power on those guys. A few more encounters like that, and Jay decided that Dr. X might be his own savior as much as for any anyone that he helped out in the streets.

[center]Superpowers[/center]

(Telekinesis): Jay has the ability to touch and move objects with the power of his mind. He can also create areas of solid telekinetic force in the form of what he calls shields. These shields are normally used to protect a portion of his body from attack, but Jay has also used the shields to protect other people and even objects from damage as well. He has not been able to cover his whole body in such shielding.

There is some form of exertion, both mental and physical, that accompanies use of the telekinesis. Extended or intense use causes Jay to experience fatigue.

[center]Skills and Equipment[/center]

Skills:

(Brawler): Ok, so there were a few martial arts classes here and there. And a teenage drive to learn how to wield authentic martial arts weapons. But getting handed your ass a few times somewhere South of the wrong side of the tracks can be a real motivator. Jay learned to be a real scrapper. And to use his TK in the process.

(Good With Words): Some people just have a gift for using the right words at the right time. From writing a letter to a corporate vice-president to talking someone down from a ledge, words are the tool that get results. Jay has learned to harness his words to good effect.

(Researcher): There is a lot of information out there for those willing dig for it. From conspiracy theory message boards to download sites for technical manuals, there is an entire world hidden beneath the layers of the one before us. And a trip to the local library can reveal things even the internet conceals. Jay has become adept at uncovering hidden pockets of knowledge.

(Sneaky): As much as Jay would like to claim full ninjahood, he just isn't that smooth. But he has learned a few things about being sneaky by using his telekinesis and just his wits. Sometimes it is easier than people think.

(Tech Savvy): Growing up with a family business geared to providing business solutions to other companies, Jay had the opportunity to be involved with technology on many levels. He may not be an engineer or a programmer, but Jay has a knack for getting tech to do what he wants.


Equipment:

(Bruise Gun): A paintball gun used to fire modified ball bearings, capable of causing some nasty blunt force damage to a person. A couple of extra CO2 cartridges are carried along.

(Ball Bearings): Modified steel ball bearings used as projectiles from the bruise gun. Can also be used as ground obstacles or used in telekinetic combat. 50 of these carried in an easily accessible pouch. Never let it be said that you don't have enough balls to get the job done.

(Hanbo): Martial arts weapons that are similar to batons or escrima sticks. Dr. X is usually equipped with two wooden hanbo and two hard nylon hanbo.

(Social Media Communications): Jay owns a cellphone, tablet, and laptop that he normalizing used for research. However, there are times when he has used these items in the field.

[center]Flaws and Weaknesses[/center]

Flaws:

(It's A Pride Thing): Jay isn't stubborn, he just likes to do things his own way. Jay isn't hot tempered, he is just intense when he does get mad. Wound his pride though, and he can seem both stubborn and hot tempered, and a lot of other bad things.

(Outspoken): When you are good at shooting your mouth off, sometimes it is hard to stop. Just have to get in that last word. Jay's mouth seems to be hardwired to his brain at times.

Weaknesses:

(Can't Be Everywhere At Once): So far, Jay has only learned to use his TK as a shield, not a sheath. That means that while he may protect a portion of his body or other target, he can't envelope the whole thing at once.

(Mind Muscle Meltdown): Jay has learned that his TK works like a muscle. Not enough use, and it gets weak and lazy. Too much use, and it just totally gives out. At present, the max is moving 500 lbs. a few feet. Less weight is easier to move farther and for longer duration, but continued strain wears Jay down quicker.
