Alternate Identities: Mark Law, Soldier Boy, LT
Player Name: NPC
APPEARANCE
Hair Color: Red
Eye Color: Hazel
Height: 6' 3"
Weight: 220 lbs
Description:
Mark Law is a handsome 6’3” and 220 pounds, with red hair, which he usually wears high and tight, and blue eyes. He has the hard body of an athlete and even before his powers manifested he was a standout football player. As captain of the varsity he led his team to a pair of consecutive championship that would have been three but for the ending of the last game. Casually he dresses as he has always in jeans, sneakers, polo shirt. As a lawyer he wears $2000 suits, hand made shoes and $500 ties. He wants to exuder 'professional bad-ass lawyer'.
BACKGROUND
Mark is almost 25 and an intern at a DC law firm. He and Carin Masterson have been married for a couple of year and are planning to have a child within the next year or so.

From the first Mark expected to follow his father and stay in the Army. That didn't work out. Instead he's become a higly successful defense lawyer, one who must be totally convicned his client is indeed, innocent. Over the last couple of years there has been a grass-roots push for him to run for District Attorney, something he is considering. Keeping criminals in jail is more fufilling then trying yto keep an innocnet out of jail. That's what holds him back, knowing that someone who didn't do it will end up in prison without his help.

During their college years Mark and Carin lived outside Davis CA, with Carin teleporting Mark to Stanford for his classes.
POWERS/TACTICS
'Shock and Awe'. Hit 'em hard, hit 'em fast and hit 'em until they're down for the count. Mark is very strong compared to nearly anyone he'll ever meet ... except Nat Ryan. He is well trained in hand-to-hand and his ability to fly is a huge advantage. He's tough and can take any hand held weapon short of an anti-tank missile. He has taken to carrying a pair of M1911 .45 ACP semi-automatic pistols, not for their fire power but for their intimidation factor. It is one thing to threaten bodily harm by the use of physical force, it is another to stick a pair of .45s in someone's face. Unless he crushes a car, the .45s work better.
PERSONALITY/MOTIVATION
You can't say Mark HATED Nat Ryan, too strong a word. Maybe he just didn't respect the younger man ... until Ryan sat him down on the bleachers all those years ago and used history on him. So, Mal Tornquist became the leader of the White Team. Eisenhower, and Mark took up the role he was born for, combat leader, Patton. After that he learned slowly came to realize that Nat Ryan was the Minuteman's version of General George C. Marshall. From that moment, he accepted, supported and defended Goliath for the rest of his life.
CAMPAIGN USE
Ranger is a traditional 'flying brick' with extensive military training including hand-to-hand combat training.
