Chase McIntyre

"I have a few suspicions, but we can't act without cause. Due process of law exists, remember? Not for you though, clearly."

Chase Abraham McIntyre is a Meta-Human, and the Lead Director of the Meta-Human Response Division (MRD) of the United States. He is internally referred to as Mobius by the MRD in classified documentation - a reference to his origins.

Synopsis

Chase is the first and only child of Carter and Rebecca McIntyre, a pair of business executives with a local business in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Initially, he was a delinquent teenager - regularly getting into fights and building up a habit for thievery. This tendency was shared with his younger brother - Vincent.

Eventually, Chase set himself on a better path and willingly allowed himself to go through the local probationary system. It was there that his Meta-Human powers manifested, and he was referred to the MRD.

After over a decade of work, he eventually accelerated his progress and reached the level of lieutenant within the organization.

It was his quick thinking in response to the MRD's Biophage Crisis that gained him the recommendation to become the next MRD Director.

Now as the current director of the MRD - Chase is responsible for all of their national operations.

Powers & Abilities

Distortion [Latent]

Chase's initial ability involved the passive manipulation of his surroundings - in a manner equivalent to "good luck".

This allowed Chase to sidestep bad situations and avoid threats as they occurred.

Dynamic Power Manifestation [Current]

Chase's true power is the ability to manifest specific abilities pertaining to the situation that he is in.

He can generally manifest around 5 - 10 abilities at once, depending on their relative strength and efficacy.

Examples of manifested abilities include:

• Telepathy - Chase is an extremely powerful telepath. Although not at the level of someone like Orion at his peak, he's still incredibly formidable.
• Telekinesis - Much like his telepathy, Chase demonstrates incredibly powerful telekinetic ability. His precision is also nearly unrivaled.
• Teleportation - Chase can displace himself through space-time in order to move across vast distances.
• Psychometry - With a touch, Chase can trace the personal history of any object - greatly helping him in his investigative work.
• Supernatural Physical Characteristics - Chase demonstrates strength, speed, durability and reflexes on a level matched by Meta-Humans like Hyperia.
• Evolution - Chase has the ability to rapidly improve his physical characteristics, such as his intelligence, metabolic efficiency and energy storage abilities.
• Energy Manipulation - Chase can generate, manipulate and absorb massive quantities of energy, in various forms. His preference is kinetic energy.
• Matter Manipulation - As with energy, Chase can generate, manipulate and absorb matter at high levels of efficiency. This is one of his preferred powers,
• Healing Factor - Chase has the ability to rapidly heal himself of any conventional damage within seconds. However, he can be overpowered by a sufficiently powerful energy source.

Notes

• Chase is the youngest MRD Director in history due to his handling of the Biophage Crisis - an internal MRD containment breach involving mutated Meta-Humans.
• His best friend is Dynamo - the former Commander of Sanctuary City.
• Chase's other friend is Valkyrie - the current MRD Commander of the Sanctuary City branch.
  • Valkyrie, or Diana, has known Chase for nearly as long as Dynamo has.
  • She also has a very clear crush on Chase - which everyone can see.

• Chase generally wears sunglasses, even indoors and at night.
  • This is because his eyes are highly sensitive to light.
• Chase has an amicable relationship with Dr. Miranda Grayson.
  • Miranda also has some feelings for Chase, but is much better about hiding them.
• Chase's favorite food is hamburgers, a statement that he himself agrees is rather predictable.
