=== Prior History ===
=== Prior History ===
Jonah has a history similar to that of his triplet siblings - with the only difference being his path of education. Unlike both Aiden and Phoebe, who took professional degrees in medicine and law respectively - Jonah chose academia after their move to the West Coast. As Jonah demonstrated a greater degree of hyper-intelligence before his siblings, he was enrolled in advanced classes at an earlier age - leading him to pursue higher education much earlier as well. Jonah excelled at all of his courses to a degree that baffled even his most skilled of teachers - leading him to graduate from secondary school and fast track himself to graduate school in his early teens. By the time he reached his early 20s, Jonah had obtained various PhDs in numerous subjects, including: mathematics, physics, electrical engineering, applied biochemistry, literature, history and various other subjects. As such, Jonah became the most knowledgable of the triplets very quickly, utilizing his skills to aid his brother and sister as they continued down their career paths as well.

During his brief stint in secondary school - Jonah befriended a girl named [[Elisabet Cardigan (Earth-0)|Elisabet Cardigan]], and was incredibly kind to her as her classmate. Although Jonah was expressing what he felt was proper conduct standard cordial behavior at first, he then quickly began to develop feelings for Elisabet. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't in the same core curriculum as her for most classes, though he did end up spending time with her outside of classes.
Due to his supernatural intelligence and other cognitive abilities - Jonah quickly became seen as a bonafide prodigy.

Eventually, Jonah would be recruited by [[Sanctuary City|Sanctuary City's]] local government to aid in a physics research joint venture with the [[New Science Initiative]]. The experiment involved the generation, detection and direct observation of [[chronons]] - a hypothetical subatomic particle serving as the carrier of entropic time. The goal of the project was to ascertain whether chronons existed, and whether micro-fluctations in space-time could be mapped and predicted to potentially "see" through time. Unfortunately, the experiment went awry, with the particle accelerator malfunctioning - causing a distortion in space-time to appear. A bright golden bolt of energy then struck Jonah - knocking him unconscious.

Recognizing the familiar nature of Jonah's new abilities, Phoebe called her close friend [[Lisa Dawkins (disambiguation)|Lisa Dawkins]] to investigate. According to Lisa, the experiment had turned Jonah into a Para-Human with similar abilities to her. Jonah had become a [[Speedster]] with a connection to what Lisa dubbed the "[[Speed Force]]".

=== Structure Matrix ===
=== IsoForm Nature ===
As the Incarnation of the [[Structure IsoMatrix]] - Jonah has the innate ability to sense conceptual patterns and make logical inferences from those patterns. He is also capable of parallel processing - allowing his brain to perform various cognitive operations at any given time, dramatically increasing his cognitive abilities. Jonah also has a near instant and perfect intuition for any and all systems, mechanisms and structures - no matter how abstract they are.  
Unlike his siblings, Jonah is an [[IsoForm]] - and not an IsoMatrix. Because of this, he instead mimics the structure of IsoMatrix agents - manifesting a small portion of their immense powers.  


Jonah is also capable of making highly complex simulations of various situations, based on available data for modeling and processing. Because of this, he is very skilled at predicting outcomes depending on their probability of likelihood. In addition, Jonah record visual, auditory and even sensory stimuli in his brain for an extended period of time - capable of recalling the sensations and interactions of an event at will in his mind, with remarkable accuracy.
This IsoForm mimicry grants him a collection of abilities, including:


Applications include:
=== Mosaic DNA ===
 
Much like his siblings and his father, Jonah is capable of sequencing and re-sequencing his DNA without any tangible limit.
* Hyper-Intelligence
* Photographic Memory


=== Mosaic DNA ===
While not automatic like Aiden's variant - Jonah has the ability to manually control what genetic components he mimics.
Much like his siblings and his father, Jonah is capable of sequencing and re-sequencing his DNA without any tangible limit. Although not autonomic like his brother Aiden's variant of Mosaic DNA, Jonah's version allows for more modularity of alterations - regularly creating different "variants" of any given Meta-Gene sequence.

The result of Jonah's Structure Matrix working in synergy with his Mosaic DNA. Jonah has the ability to mimic the Meta-Gene sequences of any Meta-Human, whose ability he can visually observe and understand. The mimicry requires direct line of sight with the phenomena, and the phenomena must be visual in nature to mimic - thereby limiting the degree to which Jonah's Mosaic DNA can mimic Meta-Human abilities. However, in return, Jonah's Mosaic DNA allows for modification of the abilities themselves - granting far more granularity of focus and general alteration not found with Aiden or Phoebe's variants.

Examples of Jonah's mimicry include:
 
* Fire Manipulation
** Mimicked from a Meta-Human attempting to rob a bank.
* Light Manipulation
** Mimicked from a Meta-Human in school, trying to amplify a scientific experiment involving a refraction device.

After the accident with the science experiment - Jonah became a Speedster - a being connected to the Speed Force. The Speed Force an extra-dimensional continuum that represents the idea of speed and motion - continually pushing against the fabric of reality, and causing it to expand rapidly.
