Artwork by Jeff Phillips.  Used with permission.Background: The twenty-eight year old man today known as Shieldwall was born with dual citizenship for the United States and New Zealand. He grew up in the US and his parents emigrated back to New Zealand when he was seventeen. While in the US he was an active member of the Scouts, and that had a powerful impact on him. To this day, he is still considered very much the "Boy Scout" because he is loyal, trustworthy and responsible. It was these very attitudes which led him to join Watch Tower as a normal agent. His natural leadership qualities as well as his responsible attitude allowed him to rise quickly and he eventually developed a romantic relationship with Watch Tower super Luminary. Luminary had a mystic background and collected several magical items over the years. It was one of these items which "called" to Shieldwall shortly after the disappearance of Watch Tower Team Alpha. During one of his moments of deepest despair for the woman he loved, the item called to him and imbued him with the power to transform himself to a costumed identity which reflected his own supportive nature and form barriers of mystic energy.

Personality/Motivation: High sense of Responsibility of Power. Also a "boy scout" - honest, loyal, truthful, incorruptale, always keeps his word.

Quotes: "You lead, I'll block."

Powers/Tactics: Shieldwall can mystically transform toa superpowered state. The transformation is acompanied by a change to his hero costume. In this transformed state he gains the abilitie to create fields of mystic force.

His primary power is to create up to five walls of force, each of approximately 56 square meters.  He can create a number of shapes, including cubes and spheres.

Appearance: Caucasian, 5'9", engages in regular physical exercise. His "costume" is a saphire blue bodysuit with silver gloves, boots, facepiece and section on left torso.
