Place of Birth: Southern England
Family: Mother: Beth Connelly, Father: Paul Cross

History:
Immigrated to Boston with parents shortly after his second birthday. While his father was minister at a small and failing church he was raised at home by his mother as a devout Christian. During one summer a traveler came to stay with his family. His father taking him into the home out of pity this stranger ransacked their home and killed Mathews mother, leaving his father a cripple. The stranger had killed his mother while Mathew slept, but he saw it all happen in his dream. He remembered more than anything the stranger laughing then winking at Mathew before he left the house. Month’s later similar cases appeared in the news of a mutant preying on those in the isolated and poorer areas of Boston.

For a number of weeks after the murder of his mother Mathew wouldn’t say a word to anyone, his father could only cry and weep at not only the loss of his wife, but apparently at the loss of his son also. One day his father was entered his church only to see the bible upon the alter consumed in a dark black flame, into the base of the alter was written “And so shall thine enemies fall upon my wrath.”

For a time Mathew wondered around America, aimlessly seeking the mutant who had killed is mother. It seemed that his own mutant abilities only showed once, in his father’s church. But as he became more obsessed in his search of this stranger so did he powers emerge. At first they only showed when he found himself in danger. He would hold his hands out to protect and black bolt of energy would rain on his attackers. On a walk he became overcome with fatigue and dehydration and collapsed on a Phoenix Highway. An elderly couple stopped on the road and offered him a ride into the city. When the women took his hand she suddenly gave a scream a fell from the car, the color gone from her cheeks, with her arms looking frail. Mathew stood up and looked at the man in the car, feeling energized and renewed he merely looked at the man then started walking back along the highway. It was only after hours of walking without change that Mathew realized that he had walked a lot further than he thought. Developing the power of teleportation by concentrating on opening a portal from where he was to wear he wanted to go. At the minute it is only usable for a short distance, but the more he uses it the further he is able to travel.

One night the old town of New Orleans Mathew met a lady, she did not give him her name but said she new what he was looking for. She took him to a cafe and at him down...she seemed to know of his travels...what he had done, who he had met. They spent some hours talking, Mathew asking many questions but getting few answers in response. Mathew asked her to help him in his quest, she smiled and spoke “In your life seek no protection, you have the armor of your soul”.

It took Mathew two more years before he found the meaning to her words, being able to create a suit of metal armor with the use his mutant ability. Whether this power remains fixed with just simple armor is something he longs to know.
