Jack fished his keys out of his jacket's interior pocket, the bits of metal rattling against each other. He inserted a key into the lock of his apartment and gave it a twist, the locking mechanism grinding with a solid click. He pushed the door open, after pulling the key out, with his hand holding his groceries. The door slowly swung ajar, revealing his sparsely decorated apartment. A screen print of a Monet painting hung upon the wall, above the single couch that was facing the television that was on top of a wooden stand.
He set the groceries down on a table that was adjacent to his apartment's tiny kitchen, He sighed, this was all he could really afford with the jobs from the Collections Network not being the most reliable way to get paid.

He took off his jacket, and his nametag, tossing the former over the chair, and putting the latter on the table. His day job was part time at some small time restaurant. The fourth one this year. He spent most of his money on this place, but even that didn't cut it at this point. He wouldn't have enough money for the rent by the end of the month. A glass display case hung over the table, with his insignias from his time in the French Foreign Legion, almost mocking him. At least then he was something.

He put his groceries away into the refrigerator, getting out some fettuccine noodles to make for dinner.Jack took a second to fill the metal pan with water. Setting the pan on the stove, he sighed as he flipped the heating element on, letting the water heat up. He directed his mental attention at the water.

It seemed to boil after only a few seconds.

It was going to be a long afternoon, he didn't need to lengthen it with tedious tasks.

History: Jack was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan to a rather wealthy family. He picked up a fondness for cooking at a young age, which was encouraged by his mother. He did decently in school, until he started showing signs of powers around the age of thirteen. His mother was, Kendra Kettering was a Gravitokinetic, and his father, Adrian Kettering, possessed a super intellect and the ability to copy other psychokinetic powers, so Jack's potential as a super was rather likely.

He started being tutored in how to properly use his ability all through out the rest of his schooling, eventually deciding he'd do better utilizing his power to fight rather than for a civilian use, after ending up beating up a gang of seven people who tried to ambush him in an alley in Detroit, when he was sixteen. At that point, he started looking into a military career, seeing a path to hone himself to his fullest.

When he turned 19, he joined up with the French Foreign Legion, learning much of his military skills with his five years of service there. He served in several conflicts in the Middle-East and Africa, usually in a support capacity for a squad of soldiers. His service in the French Foreign Legion nearly removed his American citizenship, but due to never becoming a NCO in the Legion and the Legion never being hostile to the United States, he kept his US Citizenship. He was wounded in combat during his time in the Legion, granting him dual citizenship in both the US and France. After his service was over, he returned to the States, and took up residence in New York.

While in New York, he worked a bunch of odd jobs, usually in food joints and occasionally taking up a bit of muscle work. He eventually joined up with the NYSCN, trying to keep himself occupied with the jobs that were made available to him. He has been struggling to make ends meet through his work with them, and seeks something more to his life in New York.
