Geoff was an EMT who responded to a call on bridge outside of St. Louis. It was late at night so he lit flares as he and his partner aided a fallen motorcyclist. They had managed to get the injured cyclist into their vehicle when a drunk driver barrelled into them, having fallen asleep at the wheel. Instincitvely Geoff held his hands up to protect himself and the car stopped; it was completely destroyed by the sudden impact. The sudden burst of kinetic energy made Geoff feel incredibly powerful, he tore the wreckage apart with his bare hands and pulled the driver out. Placing the two injured men into hs truck he and his partner went back home. The car wreck was explained away as the drunk hitting the bridge. Geoff's partner never mentioned what happened in his report. Geoff, after a long talk with his wife, responded to the Avant Guard add and began developing a heroic ID. He took the name Cross as an homage to the work that the Red Cross has done over the years. Cross is a pretty easy going guy. He gets along well with the other contestants and tries to be a normal guy in an extrodinary situation. He shines in "emergency simulations" taking charge and coordinating his fellow superhumans. He misses his wife and son terribly and is unsure if he really wants to be a superhero. "Take it easy, everything's going to be okay." Cross has burgeoning Kinetic control powers. So far he has displayed the ability to halt the motion of on-coming targets, absorbing kinetic and energy blows and converting the energy to physical strength and toughness, and the ability to enhance kinetic based movement powers (running, swimming, leaping, winged flight, etc...); either his own or others if he can touch them while they are in motion. Geoff isn't really a combat monster, but his powers can be a rude awakening to "Move-Through" artists. He tends to simply absorb his max STR and PD and trying to punch his opponents into submission. If you'd like to lower his combat abilities drop the Movement Aid and reduce his max absorbtion. To improve him, add a few more kinetic abilities improve his absorbtion MAX and give him higher normal attributes. Above average height and leanly muscled, Geoff sports a red body suit with a blocky cross on his heart. The Cross is red and outlined in white. He has white boots, belt, and gloves. He wears no mask save for a red goggles.

Grant is an infant but I didn't feel he needed his own "DNPC" slot.
