Bio:

Jerod “Mooch” Charles is a high school football phenom with the body of a tank and a confidence to match. Outgoing, cocky, and effortlessly charismatic, Mooch is used to being the center of attention—on the field and off. But beneath the bravado lies a complicated young man wrestling with the weight of expectations, identity, and power.

As a variant, Mooch can absorb energy from physical impact, heat, and electricity, storing it and redirecting it into devastating bursts of strength. Fully charged, he’s nearly unstoppable—a walking wrecking ball. Though he’s hesitant to see himself as a hero, Mooch is slowly realizing that his powers come with more than perks—they come with responsibility.
