If he were to touch a rock wall he could absorb it to control the element of earth. He can coat himself with the element making him a huge giant rock monster or a flying fiery beast to a puddle of water, to disguise him in the rain.

Caring: Yes, he is caring but he really has to get to know the person before he will show it. He will do almost anything for someone he knows really well.

Pet: he has a pet hawk that he cares for but lets it fly around while he learns how to tame his powers.
History (at least three paragraphs): Jake was born in a log cabin on the countryside of Alabama. When he was born most of his siblings were old enough to be in high school, but did not go to school because their parents couldn’t support them enough to go. They lived several years in the log cabin but when Jake turned five they moved to the countryside in New York. There they built a new cabin and they lived there for several years. Several years later, when Jake was eleven or so, he discovered his powers, when he was playing a game with his friend. He had walked out on his patio, hoping to hide from his friend. Soon his friend found him and jokingly acted as if he didn’t see Jake and, accidentally, pushed him off the steps. When Jake hit the ground, hands first; he, unknowingly, absorbed the power of earth. His friend helped him up off the ground. They realized his hands were scraped up so Jake and his friend walked over to a small pond Jake had in his backyard. He then got down on the ground and rinsed his hands off in the water. Behind them they had heard a crash; they turned around and saw that a huge boulder had landed a few feet away from them. When Jake brought his hands up from the water the liquid lifted up also. His friend realized what had happened and he freaked out, he then ran back to Jake’s house and hid in fear. Seven years later, Jakes parents had him doing little jobs around the house such as taking care of the lawn. So when he was ready to water the lawn with water from the pond, because they had no running water, He decided that he would try to uses his power. He dipped his hands in the pond and made chords of water go to the lawn. But to Jake’s surprise his mom had been watching him from the window. When she saw that Jake was controlling the water she let out a sharp yelp which scared him that it made him loose control of the water and he coated himself in water which made his mother scream again. He finally got control of his power and he let the water leave his body. Immediately after, he ran into the house to apologize but his mother chased him out of the house with a butcher knife. He tried to stop her from hurting anyone but when he did she whipped it around and it sliced his arm. Finally, it seemed, he got the message he wasn’t wanted in the house anymore. He ripped part of his shirt off and tightly rapped it around his arm to try and stop the bleeding.
What is he/she doing now: Jake has been perfecting his power and looking for someone to accept him.
Relationship with other characters: Jake is a newer person to the world of mutants. He feels like he’s the only one. Since the day he’s was kicked out of his house he has not found another person that shares his freakish nature.
Special feelings toward other characters: Since Jake really doesn’t know anyone else he really does have any special feelings.
How he reacts to other characters: He will act kindly but he won’t really try to begin a conversation with someone else unless that person has gotten to know him pretty good.
How other characters react toward him/her: Most people will see him and take pity seeing that he is homeless but won’t normally try to help him thanking he may be diseased or something.
Extra info: Two of Jake sibling also had mutant powers but neither of them discovered it until they had already left their family.
