Name: Jay Miles

Gender: Male

Aura: Dark Blue

Appearance: Looks roughly 16. He is a bit on the short side standing 5'5" but not unrealistically so. He has jet black hair that typically does what it wants to, but he doesn't mind since he usually has it smashed under a baseball cap. His eyes are a dark brown that borders on the black and his skin has been called golden, but he calls it brown. He is keen to button up tee's particularly baseball jerseys and for any odd reason Hawaiian themed shirts. Either with shorts or jeans depending on if it is hot or cold out.

Race: Human

Abilities:
~Summon Baseball Bat: He always seems to have one when he needs it.

~Ty Cobb Swing: Ever been hit by a baseball? It hurts. As a response, when something like that comes for Jay he tends to hit it with unreasonable speed and accuracy. It isn't something that he can pull out when he is being pitched at regularly, it needs to be fast and threatening or he won't be shocked enough to react.

~Heavy hitter: Jay hits things way harder than usual. It is a mental thing tied to how well he thinks he hit the ball. When he hears it hit the sweet spot of the bat his confidence charges it up and sends it flying.

Background: Jay hasn't had a great life so far. He was born in San Diego, CA and his mother died giving birth to him. He guesses that is why his dad is so abusive, he blames Jay for her dying. He spent a lot of his early childhood in that kind of bad environment, coming home to nothing but pain and misery.

His first power was born out of that. When he just didn't want to be hit anymore, he wished real hard and he stopped feeling the blows. The old man was too drunk to notice, and Jay was always in too much pain to remember.

In middle school he got into baseball, and noticed that it gave him some time away from home for his dad to drink himself useless so when he got home it wasn't so bad. It became his escape, and it came with friends and a future in both sports scholarships and the possibility of going pro.

It became a huge part of his life, even to the point that he developed abilities around it, both instinctively getting a bat to hit the ball with and hitting it harder than it should be possible for someone his size. He wanted nothing else but to show some talent scout he was amazing, so he could get away from all of this and be truly happy for once in his life.

And he got his wish.

He recently got an offer to go to Amaranth School of the Gifted for his stellar grades, and they even offered to pay thanks to his baseball skill. So he forged his dad's handwriting and didn't look back.

He lives at one of the dorms on campus now, and gets along pretty well with the other boys in the building a personal few pulling him into their clubs. He is on the baseball team, and still practices a lot so that they keep paying for him to stay here.

Clubs:

Baseball team
Psychology Club
Drama Club
Choir

Relationships:
John Helsinki: His current roommate at the dorm. He is the head of the psychology club and he asks a lot about Jay's past. He's really helped him get a grip on the whole abuse thing and ended up convincing him to join the psychology club.

Daniel Akins: His next door neighbor at the dorm and a total queer, he is part of the Drama Club and somehow talked Jay into joining. Jay is pretty sure that Daniel has some kind of crush on him, but he isn't sure whether that is just him typecasting Daniel for being gay.

Allen Clark: Daniel's room mate, leader of the bass section of the school choir. He also sings in his own band and his music isn't half bad. He convinced Jay to try out for the Choir since, "A little musical expression is good for everyone." and it turns out he is a pretty good tenor.
