Introduction

xxxxxJosiah is hip young professional from a local, well-to-do family. He's got his dream job, a nice apartment and an active social life. Though it all seems to be going for him, he's not without a dash each of cynicism and sarcasm. If he's not working on an assignment or attending some nightly shindig, he get's his kicks in the gym or in the pages of a good book. Sometimes, he does all three at once.

History

xxxxxJosiah grew up in large family in New York City, headed by patriarch Noah Brink of Brink Financial. Noah made sure everyone was financially happy, while his wife, Dianna, planned their social calendar. A philanthropist and socialite, she liked throwing dinners and attending parties, often with her children in tow. Starting when he was twelve, Josiah manifested a mutant ability to make a copy of himself. Just one. He used to to play pranks at first, but his family soon caught on. The whole thing called for a family meeting, where it was decided that Josiah would stay home more. The family wouldn't publicize the mutation, of course, but they would encourage him to use it well, if only to better hide it.

xxxxxDuring his years at Columbia University, where is studied English, Josiah manifested a third copy. With so much practice already,this one became easy to control and soon he was applying his gift to school, able to study and work three times as fast and still have time left over to meet his friends around town. This didn't exactly make his years at the university a breeze, but it certainly helped.

xxxxxAfter graduation, Josiah spent a few years working as a freelance writer for various local publications. He built up a reputation in the party scene and started to make a name for himself among his mother's friend's and acquaintances. It wasn't all fun and games, though, as Josiah was very bent on furthering his career. He was also deeply interested in his mutation. He studied genetics and theories on cloning, eventually developing some theories of his own as to what the limits of his mutation might be. Most recently, Josiah was named a staff writer for the New Yorker, where he hopes to makes a name for himself and maybe get a book deal down the road.

Powers

xxxxxSimply put, Josiah is able to make copies of himself. These copies share experiences and memories, and can move independently of each other. Though you may never now which Josiah you're running into, they're really all a piece of the same guy.
