Joyboy (Technet)
Contents |
HistoryEdit
Joyboy is one of a team of otherdimensional bounty hunters known as the Technet. He has been with the team since their first appearance, apart from a brief period when he and several other members left after a disagreement about their finances.
Joyboy accompanied Gatecrasher and the rest of the Technet to Earth first to hunt down the otherdimensional counterpart of Captain Britain known as Kaptain Briton, and later to capture the mutant Rachel Summers (Earth-811), then known as Phoenix. Both assignments were undertaken on behalf of Saturnyne. After they failed in the second assignment, the team based themselves on a disused pier in Brighton, England.
Powers and AbilitiesEdit
Powers
Wish fulfilment: Joyboy has the power to read, and grant, an individual's greatest desire, but with a twist. For instance, when Shadowcat was stuck in her phased state and longed to be solid, Joyboy made her corporeal but grossly obese. In another instance when a man showed that he admired his female boss Joyboy turned him into her. Joyboy's power indicates some kind of telepathic ability, though this may just be reflexive.
Levitation: Joyboy is able to hover in place and to move through the air to some degree, though this falls short of true flight.Strength level
Because of his body shape and size, Joyboy has negligible physical strength, or ability to use it.Weaknesses
Joyboys powers last only as long as he is concious.
ParaphernaliaEdit

CradleTransportation
Joyboy levitates inside a cradle-like object. It is unclear whether the levitation is a property of the cradle itself, or of Joyboy's own doing.
