In some instances, he can gain the physical skill of a particular organ (keen hearing from a sonar operatior and so on). The grafted flesh however does begin to decay at a slightly excellerated rate, so whatever benefits gained only last a day at the most.

History: Mazoch had a simple lower middle class upbringing until he turned 8. His mother became sick and with his father holding down 3 jobs, Mazoch and his sisters were parceled out among family members until things got more stable. Against his mother's wishes, he ended up with her brother. Joe, it turned out was a rather sick puppy and enacted his fantasys on the boy who stayed with him for 6 years, during this time Mazoch had suffered enough trauma that he lost his ability to feel physical pain.

When Mazoch finally was returned to his family, they could tell he was different, but were too afraid to question why. Over the next couple years, Mazoch fell into the drug crowd and he ran away, returning to live with the uncle who abused him. By now his mutant power manifested and Mazoch was a willing participant in his uncle's fantasys, taking them to new heights. This time they would pick up runaways and include them in as well.

The turning point was when they had a young girl held captive. Mazoch began to fall for her, and she was actually nice to him, thinking he was just following his uncle in all this. However, when she tried to escape, she broke Mazoch's heart and with tears in his eyes, he removed her bones slowly from her body while she was still alive. This heartbreak made him snap and he then skinned his uncle and restitched his flesh back on. His uncle didn't survive, but did go with a smile on his face. Mazoch then returned home and promptly killed his entire family, butchering them completely and grafting parts of them onto him and restitching them into new shapes.

He was found by Danse Macabre who thought the death of his uncle seemed occultic in tone. They spirited him away and took him in. Recognizing that Mazoch had been through some intense trauma, they tried to help him. This was when he fell in love for a second time, with his primary 'counselor', Medea. She had grown up with fairly similar trauma and was considered the best to help Mazoch return to some sort of normality. But Medea had some troubles of her own at that time and she was skittish when Mazoch made his attentions known.

This time, he didn't lash out and instead went to the Vault where the Danse kept the sorcerous artifacts that were dangerous secured. Asking a Mirror of Visions Yet To Come, he wanted to know if he would be with her. The mirror however didn't recognize Medea by her name as it wasn't her birth name and needed a part of her to be able to See. Mazoch snuck into her house during the night to get some of her hair for the mirror and was overcome by watching her sleeping form and tried to force himself on her. She fought back and Mazoch fled. He returned to the mirror with some of her bodily fluids and asked the mirror again. Upon hearing that she was meant for another, he flew into a rage and shattered the mirror. By this time, Medea had told the others what happened and they went after Mazoch who now fled Blackrock for parts unknown.

Since then, Mazoch's been wandering wherever he wished, killing as the mood hit him. He does hunger for power so he can one day reclaim a woman who was never his to begin with.

Personality: Sadistic to the extreme and very obsessive. He considers himself an artist of the flesh.

Hobbies: Cooking, Taxidermy

A Quote: Art takes many forms, Murder's only one.

Non-Mutant Skills: A skilled butcher, can dress a carcass in minutes. An excellent shopper for any kinds of meat.

Other Stuff: Mazoch is pretty knowledgeable about True Magick, while he has no spell casting abilites, he can cast spells if he has a grimoire or scroll. He will make a grab for any sort of power he can to obtain his ultimate goal. When he is working his 'art', he puts on his workface-a specially hollowed set of facial bones that he wraps to his head with razorwire.
