Biography
Of Chinese descent, Jacob was raised in America by his father along with his older brother Steven, his mother had died due to complications of his birth. He grew up in California, where his father worked as a chef at an upscale oriental restaurant, earning enough money to send both of his sons to private school. Academically, Jacob was only average, but he was a natural athlete, the exact opposite of his brother, who could calculate the square root of 7,348 when he was six, but was rather physically inept. They got along well though, and helped each other out when in need, their opposite natures proving beneficial when paired up.

Throughout his childhood and on into adolescence, Jacob displayed great physical prowess, it seemed as if after watching only a brief demonstration that he could pick up any skill and retain it. He participated in every sport imagineable in the area, his favorites were rollerblading, surfing and martial arts, in that order. It was when he was 14 that his mutation emerged, after suffering a gruesome rollerblading accident which should have left him dead or crippled, he recovered within a day. The realization that he was a mutant put a strain on his carefree nature and his family life, those who knew looked at him differently, including his father and brother, even if it was unintentional. Finally, after a year of steadily degrading home and school life, he had had enough, and resigned from school to leave home, and join up with a traveling extreme sports show that traveled across the country.

Its been one year since he set on his own, and Jacob has found himself on the east coast, joined up with a group of mutants not so unlike himself, to fight the good fight for mutantkind.
